In my opiniom it`s that: 1. You do not need to eat for an hour after training, because immediately after training your body burns calories with an eerie speed. Let him complete this process, the first meal after training should not be more than an hour later.2. You can not also drink energy drink. Many try to speed up the metabolism by doing the exercise with energy drinks. Do not do this at all - there is a lot of sugar in the energy industry, and you only slow down the process of burning fats by feeding the body with fast carbohydrates.3. You can not go to bed after a workout. Even if you are exhausted, do not go to bed after a workout. The organism needs about 2 hours, so that all processes slow down and the body is ready for bed. You can compare the rapid retirement after a workout with emergency braking: harmful for suspension, and for rubber, and for the engine.4. Having finished training, you can not skip stretching. Most often after strength training, fitness club attendees do not stay for half an hour stretching, and this is a big mistake. Soothe muscles, give to lactic acid go away- all this contributes to the greater effect of training!5. You can not wipe the sweat from your face with the same towel that you just put on the simulator. I guarantee inflammation to everyone who does it!6. Even if you live 5 minutes from the hall, take a shower immediately after training. 5 minutes is enough to make the sweat dry, clogging the upper layer of the skin where bacteria immediately start to multiply.7. You can not limit yourself to drinking. After training, drink as much as you want. Water will not make you fat, but to suffer thirst is harmful!

Not Eating: Now, we don’t mean you should hit up the Golden Arches on the way home. But it’s important to have a snack — one that features carbs and protein — within an hour of your workout. Your body needs the energy to repair and refuel itself

You should not take a rest, you must first cool down with some exercices and stretch. You can drink water and take some afterworkout sahke. Do not drink cold water.

Do not drink cold water, 

Enjoy your workout
