Protein supplement for runners
Recov gives runners a complete protein they can take with a glass of water. It is tablets, not a shake, so there is nothing heavy sitting in your stomach before an early run, and a 180-tablet bottle fits in a race-day bag.

Your whole bloodstream carries only 2–3g of amino acids at any moment. Six tablets of Recov deliver roughly that entire amount, already broken down into small peptides your body absorbs directly.
Common questions
How much protein do runners need?
The International Society of Sports Nutrition recommends 1.4–2.0 g of protein per kilogram of body weight a day for most people who exercise, ideally spread across the day. Recov helps fill the gaps between meals. More detail in our protein for runners guide.
When should runners take Recov?
On training days the product-page chart is 2 tablets on waking, 4 before your session and 2 after, adding 4 before bed on heavier days. That puts you in the 8–12 a day training range.
Will it upset my stomach on a run?
It's tablets and water, with no shake, sweeteners or lactose, so there is no meal or big drink sitting in your stomach when you head out.
Is Recov a complete protein?
Yes: all 20 amino acids, delivered as di- and tri-peptides, with the amino acid panel printed on the label in milligrams.
