Vitamin C for athletes

Vitamin C is much more effective than everybody think. It is not only an excellent immune protection tool! You've heard that this vitamin is useful to take in loads of powerlifting. Let's see what effect can be achieved and why it is recommended for inclusion in the diet of all athletes.
The main effect for athletes is vitamin C involved in the recovery process. Use ascorbic acid after strength training, which affects the state of the ligaments and tendons, helping to restore the body. After rest is the most critical part of the training: without proper rest and recovery you will be overtrained or injured.

The second important effect, especially necessary for the powerlifter - a positive effect on testosterone levels. Vitamin C is involved in lowering cortisol levels, which negatively affects muscle growth.

During daily heavy strength training you should receive 3000 mg of vitamin C per day, and during his illness - even more. Divide it into three parts, welcome to 1000 mg, so as not to waste and get the desired effect.
