I lift 4x/week and am 6' 178 lbs. 22 yr old male. I am looking to build more muscle, while reducing the fat.

My friend told me that I shouldnt be taking the Protein Powder w/ milk because the milk absorbs it too quickly. He suggested water. What do you all reccomend?

Also, Right now Im doing 3 scoops with 2% milk right after my workout. Should I go for 1 scoop before, 1 after, and 1 before bed??

thanks in advance

its the other way around, milk slows down the process. After a workout, you dont want to drink it with milk, drink it with water and some sort of carbs like oats.
