I just started taking a recovery drink

Although I have been working out for over 40 years, can you believe I have never taken a recovery drink!?
But I just took this course on nutrition, and it was very interesting. So off to the Vitamin Shoppe I went.
Not interested in anything with sugar - wish everything didn't have to taste sweet all the time.
But I ended up with True Athlete = Natural Recovery powder. So far (a week) I am liking it quite a bit.
Hopefully it will help me feed all my needy cells
Anyway, that is what is in my kitchen

I was taking a BCAA powder and never got any DOMS, at the mo trying a pre-workout just to see what my workouts are like, lots of caffeine in it but I do get in the gym at 7:15am. Makes me train hard almost non-stop.

@Grace Ward I ran out of BCAA powder and found I had sore back muscle from the heavy lifting at the gym, bought just plain BCAA powder since you get more fro your money. I mix with juice and water and drink whilst working out, any muscle soreness goes away fast and again no DOMS. I mix creatine monohydrate in as well and in a bottle 1 cup juice plus 1 cup water.
