Post-Workout Supplements For Better Results
Here are some things to look for when deciding which post-workout supplements to buy to maximise your recovery.
Ingredients
Look for carbohydrates to replenish glycogen stores in the muscles, which are depleted during exercise, as well as amino acids (in particular BCAAs), including leucine, isoleucine, and valine. BCAAs will help reduce muscle breakdown and stimulate protein synthesis, which is necessary for muscle repair and growth. Scientific research backs each purposeful ingredient in our post-workout range.
Dosage
Opt for a supplement that clearly states the recommended daily dosage. Always remember to consult with your health professional before adding a supplement to your diet or if you experience any unwanted symptoms. It’s also important to note that some of our post-workout supplements, such as Pure Creatine Monohydrate and Pure Glutamine, aren’t suitable for children under 15 years of age or pregnant women. Please read the warning label and follow the recommended daily dosage outlined for each product, which can be found in the Product Information.

You should always look for a reputable brand to provide you with safe, high-quality products.

Price
For a trusted, high-quality post-workout supplement, you can expect to pay between $25-$90. While there are cheaper supplements on the market, your health and performance may end up paying the price. It’s worth investing in a high-quality, trusted product for optimal results. You know what they say—you get what you pay for.
Taste
While it may not be the most important factor, you should like the taste of a product, especially if you’re having it regularly. At BSc, we offer a wide selection of delicious flavours, including Vanilla, Chocolate, Salted Caramel, Lemon Lime, and more. Just add to cold water, your smoothie, or your favourite drink.
Additional benefits
Some post-workout supplements may offer additional benefits to muscle recovery and growth, such as hydration, improved energy production, and enhanced training performance. You should consider what benefits you’re looking for and choose a product that best suits your needs.
Packaging
Look for packaging that’s easy to use, store, and recycle. Our post-workout supplements come in convenient tubs and resealable bags that are easy to reseal and stand up on their own. Not only will your products stay fresh, but their packaging will also prove easy to store, recycle, and reuse.
By considering these factors, we hope you can make an informed decision when buying post-workout supplements.
