    I've started to drink lucazade after training as it has fast acting sugars that stop the body going into a catabolic state (breaking down of muscle) and making me feel **** and tired which I did if I had nothing afterwards.

    I'm not sure I'd have it after a fight but each to their own...

    i drink it because its refreshing, sadly i have an addiction to 7up/sprite so my parents never buy the cases anymore because id drink them each time i finished one.

    The sugar takes the edge off the adrenaline.

    Similar to if you're in shock, and drink something fizzy.

    If you want to get some simple sugars into your body after training, drink some juice instead of carbonated drinks.

    Fizzy drinks like coke can cause liver damage.

    Sort yourselves out!

    Do you have a link to his actual research?

    A lot of these studies are so flawed in design it's hilarious.

    You talk some absolute **** mate. You believe in fairies and that ufos are trying to destroy you. You're what I like to describe as a crackpot ****. Someone who thinks he's an authority on all subjects, when all you actually know is how to finger your own bum hole.
