I am a 53 year old middle-age man whose knees are starting to talk to me as a result of years of training I have done. The karate, longer distance running and more recently sprinting, plyometrics, higher volume bodyweight stuff, and now the Olympic lift training along with aging are the culprits.

Hey guys, this is my first post here. Forgive me if Im not following proper etiquette. Im looking for a decent PWO shake. I was looking at the FAST RECOVERY Post Work-Out Formula as a possible solution. I just want to make sure its the right mix for what Im doing. i.e. dextrose, maltrodextrin and protein in the proper amounts. I typically workout once in the morning and once ...
