Re: protein powders

I think we need to dig into it deeper than just "how many". Everyday...training or not.

How many shakes: 4

How much protein/and type:
#1: 54g - Whey Isolate
#2: 54g - Whey Isolate
#3: 27g - Whey Isolate with 25g of Amylopectin (Post workout, right before dinner...hence the smaller amount of Protein)
#4: 25g - Casein

I just like the convince of them. I'm starting to question the true need for them at all. My 2 friends that are jacked as fuck don't even use them. My buddy eats a solid meal before he trains. I personally can't do that as ill like it up during training.

I question how many pros really use shakes at all.....

I use egg and beef isolate 1st thing am(50 grams). Beef isolate pre and post workout 25 grams

I like 1 1st thing am. I also do like using them pre and post workout. I get sick if I eat too close to lifting but I can have.a shake with carbs for workout fuel and feel great. I also have a hard time eating right away after I train but if I have a shake then I can eat shortly after.

They have there place no doubt!

I'm like you...I can't eat real food within 2 hours of training. I get way too nauseous. On leg days...forget it. I don't even take a pre-workout supp on leg days....just sip my BCAA's during my workout.

People have to remember that FOOD is the number one way to get you source of goods. If time is limited, or you have a job where you can heat up food during the day, or even eat at your desk, then shakes are about the best way to get your nutrients.

In the mornings, if you do a shake, add in some extra BCAA's. Or even take the BCAA's prior to your Protein. BCAA's on an empty stomach in the morning helps turn you Anabolic.

Re: protein powders

I do 1 shake am on off days and 2 shakes, 1 pre and 1 post on training days. I use atlarge powder, it's a good blend and has 5g of leucine per serving

Re: protein powders

Yum Yum Yum . That's my brand "ON" "Rocky Road" but I was talking about ,Chocolate Milkshakes, Banana Crème, and Vanilla... And I can drink Almond Milk with everything.................AnalogMan

I have been using ON Whey and NuBlend-7 proteins recently, the other brand I use is Max Muscle High 5 protein blend...I like the blends the best due to the absorption rate is longer having casein and egg white proteins in it, but use the whey for post workout shakes and protein bars. Here is a link to the NuBlend-7 protein...
