Yes but you need a fast digesting protein like whey, post workout.

Don't neglect pre-workout nutrition. If nothing else, can help prevent the drastic blood sugar drops during hard exercise (especially for morning exercisers) and ward off those pukey feelings.

Finally, real supplements. I choose a few for my athletes, but I only discuss them long after they swear off soft drinks, candy and all the rest and only after they convince me that they always have two full meals and a snack before an afternoon training session. I like three: fish oil capsules, a magnesium tablet, and a potassium tablet. So, you may ask, when do we start the real stuff? Like what? Creatine? Don’t waste a nickel on any supplements until you exhaust the basic steps noted above…cut out the crap, eliminate troublesome foods, and eat the “Superfoods.” You may never need anything else! |

And search based on Leucine rich foods.... surprise surprise, egg-whites are a kick-ass protein and AA source. Don't forget, Layne has built a pretty muscular solid base already so things that give him a competitive edge, matter now. I like Dan John's e-book.... in there he talks briefly about nutrition and sums up nutrition where performance is the concern beautifully: |

Personally, PWO I like milk, oats, sometimes rice cakes, sometimes some fruit, it changes depending on what I'm doing, how long I did it, and my goals at the time. Sorry, not really a great answer. |

But what about the carbs for the post workout, is wheat bread alright? If so, a good post workout meal sounds like a breakfast sandwich or fried egg with wheat bread and butter. |

I dont understand why people consider milk as a good source or carbs, though. It has a lot of sugar, doesnt it? |
Do a search, there's lots of stuff on skim milk here (most of the good stuff is from emma-leigh fyi).
