Don't Be A Fred.... Recover Like Steve!
It's just one of those things. It takes a little longer to recover after a hard session with each passing year.
When Elivar Co-Founder Donal Hanrahan decided to rescue himself from the onset of middle-aged spread his brain set the training programme while his body had to do the work.
"The issue was that my brain was still wired like my former 28-year old self i.e. a full-time international rower, but my body was actually 40+ years old," explains Donal. "By Day 4 I'd be crying out for a day off!"
"Existing recovery drinks - while promising 'faster recovery after training' were all about energy replacement and didn't make any real difference to how I felt the next day," adds Donal. "The issue was muscular, not an energy deficiency. It just took my body longer to recover between sessions and I couldn't find a product that supported that extended recovery period. It's one of the reasons we started Elivar - if you can't find it, make it!"
Working with sports nutritionists and food scientists within Elivar led to the development of RECOVER - the only sustained release Recovery product on the market. Sustained release because that's what matters as your body get a little older.
So as our video says "Don't Be A Fred - Recover Like Steve" and switch to Elivar Recover

NMN: Boosting Your Health from the Kitchen to the Medicine Cabinet
Did you know that Nicotinamide Mononucleotide (NMN), the star ingredient in numerous anti-aging supplements, also moonlights in several foods you might already enjoy? It's true! NMN is a vital precursor to NAD+, a molecule crucial to many biological processes, like cell growth, DNA repair, and metabolism. But as we age, NAD+ levels take a hit, and bolstering them through NMN intake can be beneficial. Now the question arises, can we simply count on our daily meals for our NMN fix?
