Next time you go to grab a sports drink after your workout, think twice! The most important thing after a workout is hydration, which is best from WATER. If weight-loss is a goal from your workouts, you will have to run more than a mile each workout to burn the extra calories if you plan to drink a sports drink afterwards. If you are doing a very challenging workout carbohydrates and electrolytes such as potassium and sodium may also be needed to be replaced. However this can be done through a snack or a meal if you are eating after working out.
