Waste of money. Cook a chicken breast, eat a can of tuna or 2 tbsp. peanut butter after your workout. Your body is shitting out all that extra protein it's not absorbing.

After an intense workout your body needs protein immediately. Not an hour later after you cook, prepare, eat and only just start to digest your food.

Edited by Bistromathics: 5/24/2014 1:26:58 AMThe anabolic window/nutrient timing thing is just broscience. This [url=http://www.jissn.com/content/10/1/53/abstract]meta-analysis[/url] concluded that the results "refute the commonly held belief that the timing of protein intake in and around a training session is critical to muscular adaptations". So you're not going to see any significant difference between cramming in a shake before your hour is up and just meeting your daily macros. But there's nothing wrong with protein powder, as long as it's quality stuff and not 90% sawdust. Unfortunately, there's very little comparative analysis actually being done on protein powders. Here's one that was done via... [url=http://www.reddit.com/r/Fitness/comments/uva9t/big_reddit_protein_powder_measurement_results]Reddit.[/url]

Are you a high-level, high-school/collegiate athlete? I'd imagine anyone that frequents these forums and asks these questions is one of those people that does the three big deadlifting workouts (bench, reverse squat, deadlift) and pretends he's an athlete. Curls get the girls, kid. I worked out a lot in high school. I went to three NYS final fours as a lax player in high school, played club lacrosse at a D-I school, and coached in a state championship lacrosse program for three years and advised kids on a weight lifting regimine designed by a coach from the University of Tennesee when they smoked teams in the 90's. I'd imagine the weights remain largely the same as they did 15 years ago. I'm telling you, you're wasting your money with that shit. Just the same as I see people in their 20's now that all of a sudden become top-heavy dorks at the gym, blowing their money on green shakes from the juice bar and weighing 220 whilst waddling around like a fool because they skip leg day. Unless you're an in-season athlete constantly abusing your body 6 days a week running, lifting, and playing a game everyday, you're wasting your money on protein powders. Add a little extra protein to your diet naturally and you'll be fine.

Jesus, calm down.

I hate when people call someone else [i]kid[/i], or [i]boy.[/i] It is demeaning and you know it. While I did read your whole post, and appreciate your input, I will not converse with someone I do not respect. Next time you try to give someone advice, which by the way; I disagree with, check your ego first. Thanks, but no thanks.

Lol. So you're in high school then? Regardless, the only people I've met that care this much about what protein powder they're taking instead of trying a harder routine or regimine are missing the bigger part of what it takes to be an athlete.
