Torq Recovery Plus+ is a Hot Cocoa drink containing Beta-Alanine, HMB and Sodium Phosphate, which has been designed for twice-daily use during periods of very intense training stress and during the race season.
It also benefits power-based disciplines like Track Cycling, BMX and Downhill Mountain Biking
- HMB for Muscular Repair and Growth
- Beta-Alanine for Anaerobic Power
- Phosphate Salts for Aerobic Development
- High-Potassium, Antioxidant-Rich Cocoa

Recover. Rebuild. Ride Again.
TORQ Recovery Plus+ is a hot cocoa drink containing HMB, Beta-Alanine and Sodium Phosphate that is to be taken twice daily. It doesn’t have to be mixed hot, but it really does make a great tasting cup of cocoa, so we advise that you take your time and enjoy this product. If you’re in a rush, add 2 level scoops of the powder to 250ml of fresh cold water in your mixer bottle and give it a good shake. Sugar can be added to sweeten further if required.
TORQ Recovery Plus+ is designed to be taken continually during any high load training/racing period and is therefore ideal for use throughout the competitive season, or in the lead up to and during a training camp or cycling holiday. TORQ Recovery Plus+ can also be used as a peaking tool in the lead up to an important one-off event as a peaking tool. TORQ Recovery Plus+ can also deliver significant benefits to intermittent interval type activities/sports like track cycling, downhill mountain biking and team sports.

Essentially HMB has anabolic benefits, so helps with muscular repair and development, whilst Beta-Alanine assists with the development of top-end power and lactic acid tolerance. Sodium Phosphate helps with the development of aerobic power. It is the interplay between HMB and Beta-Alanine that makes this product so exciting however, because Beta-Alanine exploits top-end power, which in turn results in micro-tears in the muscle structure and a fatigue stimulus to the anaerobic energy systems. HMB, with it’s anabolic properties then works to rapidly knit this fatigued muscle tissue back together and this is the very essence of the ‘training effect’. Fatigue – Compensation – Supercompensation. Beta-Alanine drives a larger fatigue stimulus and HMB creates a larger and quicker supercompensation.
The Torq Recovery System
Unique to Torq USA, we talk about the 4R approach to recovery. All of these processes are vital in returning the body to a healthy recovered state, primed for physiological adaptation.
-
Rehydrate
Proper fluid replenishment is crucial for recovery. Dehydration can occur when fluid intake doesn't match fluid loss from sweat during intense exercise or hot conditions. Torq Recovery Drink provides vital water and sodium, key electrolytes, to rehydrate efficiently. To further support hydration, you may also need to consume plain water or consider Torq Hydration if excessive perspiration continues post-exercise.
-
Refuel
Intense or prolonged exercise depletes stored carbohydrates, essential for high performance. Torq Recovery Drink delivers an immediate post-exercise carbohydrate supply to replenish these stores. When training loads are high, continuous refueling with quality carbs ensures that your body remains primed for recovery and ready to perform at its best in future sessions.
-
Repair
Intense exercise damages muscle fibers, and prolonged endurance activity triggers catabolic processes that break down lean tissue for fuel. Fast-acting Whey Protein isolate in Torq Recovery Drink provides the necessary amino acids to repair muscles and regenerate enzymes.
Additionally, Torq Recovery Drink contains L-Glutamine, which helps prevent muscle breakdown by replenishing this vital amino acid immediately after exercise. A comprehensive mix of vitamins and minerals further aids the repair process. For higher training loads, Torq Recovery Plus+ offers extra support with Beta-Alanine for high-intensity exercise and HMB to enhance muscle regeneration.
-
Recharge
The fourth ‘R’ in the Torq Recovery System is unique to our brand—D-Ribose. While scientific evidence for its direct impact on performance is limited, its ability to restore cellular energy (ATP) levels quickly is proven—by up to 430% faster than without supplementation. Every serving of Torq Recovery Drink contains the optimal dose of D-Ribose to replenish ATP, the energy source for muscle function.
After intense exercise, ATP levels drop by 20-28%, reducing the energy available for power production. D-Ribose helps restore these critical energy stores, ensuring muscles are recharged and ready for the next round of exercise. By boosting ATP recovery, Torq supports faster regeneration, enabling you to train harder and recover quicker.
