That looks like a good one to me. The protein to carb ratio is good for a post-cardio workout. And it has what is probably a good amount of electrolytes as well. And another positive in my mind is that they didn't try to pack in the vitamins, which most of us that watch our diet get plenty of anyway. I also like that the carbs aren't all just simple sugars.
