[rob_1983]

Hey guys, im a new member to you forum, i am about 150 pounds 5'8 i have some fat to me but am pretty lean, i work out about 3 times a week i have neva taken a protein powder always just ate good food, now im staying away from wheat for a while and seeing how much leaner i can get, its only been a week but i can really tell the difference, so i was introduced to this whey protein powder called maxmius this is the stats NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION (varies slightly, depending on flavour)
Serving Size: 41 grams (1 scoop)
Servings Per Container: 28

so what would the effects be if i take this shake before and after a workout or should i just take it after??, would i see increased mass size or just lean up with this shake, any help would be great, thanks

The shakes are a protein source - you're not going to get lean just by drinking a protein shake before and after workouts. It comes down to what your total diet is like. Post your diet and we might be able to better help you.

I'd take it post workout.

If I were you, I'd go buy a big bag of boneless, skinless chicken breast.

They're a lot more fun eating than drinking a protein shake and they don't give you bad gas.
