Have one after a weight workout, in the morning, in the middle of the afternoon or anytime you want to visit Country Burger.:p

Hi Jes,

I have been taking my whey protein immediately after weightraining. My husband has been bodybuilding for 30 years and has always taken his protein supplements right after training. I found an article online about it:

http://pharma-help.com/optimum-nutrition-whey-protein


"Recent studies on whey powder have focussed on muscle hypertrophy and resistance training in elderly males. Subjects who took whey protein powder immediately after exercise achieved positive results (less hypertrophy or muscle wasting) while those who took whey protein 2 hours or more after exercise who had no significant change".

Here is a different article from the Bodybuilding.com site:

http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/whey.html

I love to make my shakes using Vanilla flavored ON whey, milk, frozen bananas and strawberries. Yum... It's more of a treat than a meal!
 
That Bodybuilding.com site is the bomb.I find so much info on there. I love it. I see why Cathe does what she does from reading info on that site.

I should drink more protein, as it stands, I mostly add it to foods, like my cottage cheese and milk.

Wehn I work out, I haven't felt the need to use a drink after so I go on and put it in whenever I'm not feeling like cooking.

But..... the hardcore people do ingest it after their workouts.

Hi Jes,
I take mine in the right after my workout in the mornings mixed with a carb like a small amount of oatmeal and/or berries or other fruit. I also use one at night before bed, but leave out the extra carbs since I am not needing them for energy. I just think it may help my body repair muscle while I am resting.

Hi, First of all, I don't post a lot but spend a lot of time reading about all of you. I get a kick out of your lovely personalities!!! You make my day. I was in Vitamin World today and the cashier told me that the body can only take in 40 or so grams of protein at a time. Is this true???

Hey now, don't make it tooooo hard on me. lol. There should be a personality limit. Actually it really shouldn't matter how many personalities we all have as long as they are informative right??? hehehe

Jes,

You are making so much progress. I'm soooo proud of you, LOL! :7

P.S. No adding gravy to your protein shake, okay? That's considered cheating, :p
