Xact Immediate Recovery Drink Mix

$600 CAD
Color: Chocolate

Description

Recovery for endurance athletes. Not just protein powder in disguise.

Most recovery products get it wrong—too much protein, not enough carbs. If you've been told you need massive protein after training, you're following gym marketing, not endurance science.

Here's what actually happens: in the 30 minutes after exercise, your muscles are primed to absorb glucose faster than any other time. That glycogen window is where recovery happens. Carbs are urgent. Protein matters of course, but for more total daily intake, not immediate timing.

XACT Immediate Recovery is built around that reality.

The carb-first approach.

43g of carbs to maximize glycogen resynthesis while your muscles are still hungry for fuel. 14g of dairy protein to trigger muscle repair. Not the other way around.

Whole milk powder, not isolates.

Most recovery products use whey isolate alone, missing the full picture. We use whole milk powder, preserving both fast-digesting whey and slow-digesting casein, plus natural calcium. More Complete. Better Taste.

Electrolytes + calcium included.

440mg sodium, 550mg potassium, 400mg calcium. After hard effort, these are depleted. They're not afterthoughts, they're essential for fluid balance, muscle function, and bone health.

Ready in seconds.

One sachet. 275ml of cold water. Shake for 5 seconds. Tastes like creamy chocolate milk because it is milk...just optimized for what your body needs after effort.

Features

We built around carb-first recovery. This is built specifically for endurance athletes.

43g of carbs to maximize glycogen resynthesis while muscles are still primed for uptake. 14g of protein sized appropriately to trigger muscle repair without overshadowing what your body actually needs.

We chose whole milk powder because it actually works.

Chocolate milk is proven recovery fuel—cheap, effective, delicious. But most recovery products either skip the milk entirely or use isolated proteins that miss what makes milk effective.

We engineered for convenience without cutting corners.

Single-serve sachets. Mix with cold water. 5 seconds. No blender, no measuring, no excuses. But we didn't sacrifice nutrition, this is whole food engineered into a powder, not a protein powder pretending to be recovery.

The glycogen window: why timing matters.

During exercise, muscle contraction activates GLUT-4 transporters—glucose entry points on muscle cells. This allows glucose to enter muscle tissue without insulin assistance. When exercise stops, GLUT-4 transporters gradually return to baseline over the next hour. Glucose uptake slows and becomes insulin-dependent again.

This is the glycogen window: the first 30 minutes post-exercise when muscles absorb glucose most efficiently. Carbs consumed during this window maximize glycogen resynthesis. Immediate Recovery delivers 43g of carbs to capitalize on this window, getting fuel into depleted muscles when uptake is fastest.

Carbs restore energy. Protein triggers repair.

Carbohydrates replenish glycogen, the primary fuel your muscles burned during effort. Without rapid glycogen restoration, fatigue lingers and adaptation is compromised.

Protein triggers muscle protein synthesis, the process that repairs micro-damage from training and builds strength. Whey protein is fast-digesting and leucine-rich, rapidly signaling the need for muscle repair. Casein is slow-digesting, providing sustained amino acid availability over hours.

A 3:1 carbs-to-protein ratio (43g carbs + 14g protein) optimizes both: rapid glycogen restoration and immediate muscle repair signaling.
