Pre/post workout protein supplements.

artylives76 · 07-03-2006, 01:58 PM

I just ordered a shipment of muscle milk, and I'm excited to try it. However, I read that it should not be taken post-orkout, but pre-workout instead. Also that it should not be taken in the morning, but before bedtime.

So, what's a good post-workout protein supplement? A tasty one also.

Thanks

any whey does well. you need carbs-if you are a hard gainer, then I suggest dextrose and if you are an endo use old fashioned oats, with a piece of fruit and whey.

Speaking of good post-workout supplements, try MyoZene. Its a new product made by BioQuest.

read the ingredients-strictly speaking, its only a whey/malto/dextro combo with some goofy stuff thrown in.

Product info and ingredients:

The New Science of Muscle-Building Nutrition
New MyoZene represents an entirely new approach to post-workout mass-building technology. Unlike existing formulas that can take hours to shuttle crucial aminos from stomach to bloodstream to muscle tissue, MyoZene is so swift-acting and anabolically active it bypasses digestion almost entirely and begins supporting muscle recovery and growth within minutes of ingestion.

This breakthrough formulation is centered around a unique and specialized pharmaceutical protein, which is ultra-hydrolyzed via complex enzymatic processing to yield super-low-molecular-weight peptides which are so rapidly and efficiently absorbed that they actually bypass the standard digestion process and go directly into the bloodstream. At the same time, MyoZene contains a powerful matrix of insulinotropic factors that stimulate a large surge in anabolic insulin.

MyoZene is specifically engineered to speed aminos to muscle tissue in the narrow-but-crucial anabolic window that opens immediately after intense exercise. This unprecedented rapid action is of utmost importance because recent research indicates that up to 90% of muscle growth occurs within a very brief interval after intense exercise. The vast majority of post-workout formulas simply take too long to work their way through the digestive process and into the blood stream, thus missing their maximal anabolic window of opportunity entirely. When consumed immediately following intense resistance training, this revolutionary formula is designed to induce a powerful anabolic cascade, including a substantial surge of anabolic insulin combined with rapid amino acid uptake into muscle tissue for greatly accelerated muscle synthesis.

Ultimately, this precise combination of insulin and rapidly absorbed ultra-hydrolyzed proteins delivers a massive flood of aminos to muscle cells more rapidly than ever, resulting in the ultimate synergy for promoting faster and more complete muscle recovery, along with dramatic muscular growth.

If building muscle is your primary goal, you simply cannot find a more efficient and effective nutritional tool than this extraordinary new breakthrough in performance-enhancement technology. In fact, no other product available can match the amazing mass-building power of revolutionary new MyoZene--the ultimate muscle protein synthesizer.
