WHY RINNY RECOVERS WITH
TRAIN LIKE AN ATHLETE.
RECOVER
SODIUM + POTASSIUM LOST IN SWEAT
DAMAGED MUSCLES PROTEIN TO REBUILD
ELECTROLYTES TO REPLENISH
LIKE A CHAMPION. Three-time IRONMAN World Champion, Mirinda “Rinny” Carfrae, knows titles and championships aren’t simply handed out . That’s why tough workouts are her full-time job, training up to 35 hours per week. With numerous course records, running is the backbone of Rinny’s multisport training schedule. Long runs are a time to reset, reflect and focus on goals. When it comes to recovery, Rinny has relied on chocolate milk since her teen years in Australia.
