when to consume protein

MZiggy · 05-15-2007, 04:13 PM

i eat and drink protein balancedly during the day but I get home at 430 and work out for about 45min to an hour. Then i drink a protein/meal replacement drink and then eat dinner with 30 min of this. Should I wait to eat dinner till maybe 7 because the protein drink is probably more beneficial or should i postpone the protein drink. Wouldnt both that close just be non beneficial?

its better to get your protien from real food but how many shakes do you have during your day before you workout?

a meal about 1 hr after your PWO shake is good.

Maybe this should be in diet and nutrition boards.

If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it. Michael Jordan
