What do you guys think is a better post workout?

[candidizzle]

avoid fish oil post workout, even a couple hours later. If its a large dose it can actually negate some of the damage you did during your workout that would lead to new muscle growth. The inflammation response from training is a big signal for your body to start repair the muscle (and make it bigger). You don't want to blunt that response with anything anti-inflammatory related.

i did not know that! awesome info.

I like the shake right after my workout as it seems to have a higher absorbtion rate, then when I get home, shower and dick around for a bit.  I eat solid food for long lasting calories, then a shake again before bed.

Sometimes it's hard to choke down food after a hard squat of Deadlift workout.

I know what you mean. Hell, sometimes I can't even drink my shake, with my stomach being so fucked up from the leg w/o.

hahahahhaa these guys make it sound as if every morsel of the meal that you eat gets directly used by the muscle you just trained and nothing is left, hahahaha, if that's the way it worked you'd die after not eating for 6-7 hours.

ahahaha more advice from the guy who thinks if he hangs around the internet enough and reads he will know everything and he will grow strong.  dude give it up already, you don't know anything you talk about.  You just flap your lips and shit comes out.

"DL5"  fair enough...

but I'll leave it up to you to find out why BCAA's will never be "extinct". 

I'll give you a hint....go to the local library, and look up how amino acids are digested and absorbed...AND why BCAA's are unique in their absorption from ALL other amino acids 

And when you figure it out...think of me 

how many grams per day? in how many servings?

[Stubborn]

Pre/during workout mix = 5g BCAA, 30g maltodextrin, 10g protein.


Post workout mix = 5g Creatine, 30g maltodextrin, 40g protein.


Meal a few hours later.


Though, if I had the time, I would have 20g whey protein and a meal post workout. I just dont though.

interesting, isn't it more important to focus on the carbs pwo and not the protein. In your case the protein is more than the carbs.

For hot women: Protein straight from the tap.

[G o a t b o y]

a lot of controversy about this lately, so what do you think, BCAA's, maltodextrin, whey protein, etc. or good old solid food like Ronnie does like chicken, rice, cornbread, etc?

Food and gear works best.  The rest of that crap is pure snake oil.

Maybe Derek Anthony forgot the part about being a hot woman? Big ups for making it clear cut for the rest of us hedge

Well hours before my workout i always have a solid meal, then during my workout i have wazymaize starch,
glutamine, eaa's and creatine.

Now, IMIDIATELY after my workout i have the same shake above along with vit C, after 25 of that i have whey isolate with oats....

And lastly after 45-1hr a solid meal.

Thats it......

this is exactly what i do

[hangclean]

All I can say is that since I stopped taking protein shakes and only eat regular food(with the exception of bcaa's pre workout) I have gotten stronger and put on more muscle.  My post workout meal is usually white rice with 4 or 5 whole organic eggs.

I've been in the iron game a while, relatively speaking, and I have to admit I still do drink post workout shakes.  The Mass Gainer stuff from GNC (oh brother ).  Not so much for the reasons the supplement industry suggests, but because I don't have much of an appetite for at least three or four hours after a hard workout, and I want to get some nutrients into my body in the meantime.  I'm not a big breakfast guy, so I'll usually have a 700 cal. shake first thing in the morning to tide me over until lunchtime.

I still stand by the "get big" diet of the old time strongmen: milk, milk, and more milk.  Pre-processed whey protein is junk IMO.  If you want to put on a shitload of muscle over the long haul, stick with good food--and lots of it--and drink at least one gallon of milk per day.

I can only drink straight milk if I am eating peanut butter.  I eat a ton of full fat yogurt though.  I think it is one of the best foods for strength.

Typically I dont get enough protein throughout the day so I kinda make up for it there. I know it doesnt work this way but whatever. I usually get 20g malto before and 30g after. The protein is a casein, soy, whey blend.
