[cutter07]

Besides during/post workout whens the best time to take the most protein? The next morning on an offday? Right before bed the day of? Before the workout?

Every meal.

Yeah yeah but what I meant was when is the time I should eat the most besides just after my workout.

you should break it up evenly throughout the day

I consume the same amount of protein at each meal. I don't understand most. Why do you need more?

Didnt know if the morning after or evening of you require more then normal protein for repairs. Figured taking a bunch of protein on offdays probably wasn't all that helpful

Consider that your body is repairing/growing when you are not working out. So even on your rest days you should be consuming sufficient protein to repair/grow. How much that is depends on your goals, weight, WO program, etc.

I try to get some kind of protein throughout the day. It's the first thing I eat and the last thing I eat. I have it at every meal, and if I don't have any solid food I will have a shake.
