Product Description
What you do in the 30–60 minutes after a hard session determines how well you perform in the next one. Your muscles need two things fast: carbohydrates to reload depleted energy stores and protein to start the repair process. Get the ratio right and you accelerate recovery. Miss the window or shortchange either nutrient and you're already behind for tomorrow's ride or run.
Amacx Recovery Shake delivers exactly what the science calls for — 30g of carbohydrates and 20g of whey protein in a proven carb-to-protein ratio, designed to enhance your post-exercise recovery.
Optimized Carb-to-Protein Ratio – The 2:1 carbohydrate blend uses maltodextrin and fructose together, which your gut absorbs through two separate pathways simultaneously. That means faster uptake of carbohydrates than a single-source formula, getting fuel back into your muscles more efficiently when they need it most.
Complete Amino Acid Profile – Each serving delivers a full spectrum of essential amino acids — including leucine, isoleucine, and valine, the building blocks your muscles rely on to repair and rebuild after hard efforts.
Clean Formula, Race-Safe Certification – No artificial colors, no preservatives, and every batch Informed Sport Certified. You know exactly what's in it, and you can train and compete with confidence.
Whey protein concentrate provides the full amino acid spectrum your muscles need to rebuild damaged tissue after intense efforts. Pairing it with a fast-absorbing carbohydrate blend does more than just refuel — research shows that combining carbohydrates with protein after exercise boosts glycogen resynthesis more effectively than carbohydrates alone, meaning your muscles reload faster and you recover more completely before your next session.
How to Use Amacx Recovery Shake
Post-Workout: Mix 2 scoops (58g) with 300–500ml of cold water. Shake for 20 seconds and drink immediately after finishing your session.
Timing: Take it within 30 minutes of completing exercise — this is when your muscles are most primed to absorb nutrients and start the recovery process.
Pro Tip: If you trained particularly hard or in hot conditions, mix with a bit more water (closer to 500ml) to help with rehydration at the same time.
Used by EF Pro Cycling, Team Visma | Lease a Bike, Pinarello Q36.5 Pro Cycling Team, and UAE Team ADQ, the Amacx Recovery Shake is a staple in the post-ride routine of some of the most consistently hard-training athletes in the world.

Amacx Recovery Shake FAQ's
Everything you need to know before getting started.
Take it within 30 minutes of finishing your workout — this is the peak recovery window when your muscles are most ready to absorb carbohydrates and protein. The sooner, the better.
Use it after any intense or long training session where you've significantly depleted your energy stores. You don't necessarily need it after every easy session, but after hard intervals, long rides, or races it's a must.
Your gut uses separate absorption pathways for different types of carbohydrates. By combining maltodextrin and fructose in a 2:1 ratio, Amacx allows your body to absorb carbohydrates through both pathways simultaneously — refueling your glycogen stores significantly faster than a single carb source alone.
BCAAs — branched-chain amino acids — are the specific building blocks your muscles use to stop breakdown and trigger repair after exercise. The Amacx Recovery Shake delivers nearly 7g of leucine per serving, one of the most important amino acids for activating muscle protein synthesis.
Absolutely. Mixing with milk adds extra protein and calories, which can be beneficial after especially long or grueling sessions. Stick with water if you need a lighter option or are watching calorie intake.
