best time to take protein and how often
im just wondering when is the time to take protein shakes. should it be taken on days off from weight lifiting, even though some of days might be spent doing another form of excersise?
also, how many shakes a day is recommended?
here is an example of my schedule:
day1: upper body (1 hr 45 mins)
day2: cicuit training (1 hr)
abs ( 1/2 hr)
day3: legs (1 hr)
day4: rest
day5: upper body (1 hr 45 mins)
day6: run 11 - 13 kilometres (50 - 60 mins)
day7: rest
so given this, how much protein, and how often should it be taken. should i just take it only on those days spent weightlifing?

definate times to take it are post workout and in the morning upon wake-up. but you should have a lot of whole food/protein throughout the day
