Caloric intake and Recovery

[KIHOO]

Hey guys, I have a good friend who is an elite swimmer and needs some advice on nutrition and supplement use for training and recovery. His stats are 6' 170lbs.

Current workouts are:

MTRF: 1. AM: 6-7K meters in the pool
2. Afternoon: 1.5hrs weight training
3. Evening: 4-5K meters in the pool

W&S: Recovery days: 4-6K meters

Any advice or suggestions would be appreciated!

Good proteins are a must for recovery. Get some LBA's (Liquid Beef Aminos) and try these. Recovery properties of these aminos is amazing. Good carb sources for energy like sweet potatoes and brown rice.
