It is really necessary to eat after training?

When tbombz ingests his morning semen, does he feel the effects quickly?

I don't know about you, but when i finish an intense workout session in my sparkly purple thong, the hunger kicks in pretty hard after i finish showering and bottling my sweat to sell to schmoes.

If your muscles take 4 days to heal then your window of opportunity to eat in order to grow muscles is 4 days

Great news, I haven't eaten since my last workout 3.5 days ago - should I eat just before midnight tonight or does the window close at different times each day?

My point is there is no window, just eat when you can, in my case I grow best on large amounts of protein so as long as I wolf down 300+ grams per day I am fine.

You'll find that in most supplements and almost any processed food product. We don't use a regular muscle milk, we use Collegiate, ratios are 2-1 carbs to protein. We have been using it for years. Also, Probably 3/4 of the Universities and pro teams, use it. If it were. That bad, I'm sure it wouldn't be used

So none of the poisons found in Muscle milk by Consumers Reports is in the Collegiate Muscle milk, only the regular one?  I just know that any supplement is not tested by any government agency. Only after a problem becomes wide spread. I remember when many Creatine sellers were sourcing their material from China and it was found to be contaminated. That's when some went to German creatine for their material.

No I totally agree with you OTH.

I hope that not everyone realises this though, as I'll miss the guys running into the changing room and pulling out a can opener to eat tuna, and mixing a shake with the other hand before the 45 seconds is up lol.

lol, ya I see guys sprinting to the front counter to buy a shake after their last set    It's funny

[Devon97]

except he's right. it takes like three hours for food to even reach the small intestine, where like 90% of the nutrients are absorbed

"anabolic window" is BS, you'll still be digesting whatever you ate three hours ago when you down that shake and the shake itself won't even start absorbing until 3 hours later

unless you're IV'ing your protein or something

Thats why you DRINK a LIQUID

that article went completely over your head, didn't it? i'm talking about toxic heavy metal content and you're babbling some shit about carb to protein ratios.

you say if it was bad no one would use it, the company has been under scrutiny for something like 7 years now and settled like several multi-million dollar lawsuits, they've even been under sanctions from the FDA for falsely advertising their products as "healthy". this isn't news to anyone and no one in their right mind does use it. it's literally the worst protein shake on the market.

you realize that you can smoke close to a whole pack of most cig brands and still get less than the amount of lead, arsenic and cadmium contained in ONE of these shakes?

the fact that you're handing this out to people and making them drink it without doing the most basic of research as to what it contains is downright appalling.

if your stomach is still full from eating a few hrs earlier

why would you eat again 

Because you're a bodybuilder, not a human being

Whenever I drink Muscle Milk my mouth feels like I chewed on a chunk of aluminum for the rest of the day.

[deadpan]

So when someone has diabetes or low blood sugar and they eat or drink something and instantly feel better, it's just a placebo effect?  Because in your reality, it won't get to the small intestine for 3 hours? 

Bullshit.  Bullshit, bullshit, bullshit.

first off, it takes something like 30 minutes, not "instantly".

secondly. you do realize, dipshit, that there's a massive fucking difference between absorbing simple glucose-based sugars that need minimal digestion to break them down into a readily-absorbable state as opposed to complex proteins that take hours to break down? it's basic chemistry.

the only bullshit here is what's coming out of your mouth in the form of idiotic analogies that have no bearing on what we're talking about.

[El Diablo Blanco]

Don't bother eating, just down a few BCAAs. Stay away from that Muscle Milk shit.  Just read the ingredients.  Sunflower oil, Canola Oil??

its official. 'abraham g' has taken over as the sites biggest retard. on a bbing board where stupidity is a daily occurrence 'abraham g' sets a new benchmark in ignorance.

'so if someone is a diabetic and takes sugar and feels immediately better thats a placebo effect?' he says in defense of his claim that the 'anabolic window' (who says shit like this anyway) is very serious business.

it appears our new resident is comparing a person who needs glucose to stay alive to a trainer who cannot afford to miss his 'anabolic window'.

well done, retard. well done.

go back to the pink weights sunshine.

[Psychopath]

its time to destroy all the bro science out there once and for all.


too many misled ppl, wasting precious time of their lives bc theyre confused on diet and training stuff unnecesarily.

its time to clean up that mess.

You sound like GH15, lol.

[anabolichalo]

You sound like GH15, lol.

gh15 was right about a lot of things

i think

[Nomad]

enjoy your cheap chinese phosphate and heavy metal shake

Muscle Milk is toxic.

True story.

Supplement industry wants you to believe you need "high quality nutrients" in you immediately after a workout.

For years I always downed a huge protein shake and a big meal after a workout like my life depended on it. Silly fucker. Now I don't eat 90 minutes after my workout. I also don't eat any carbs 8 hours before my workout (I work out first thing in the morning on empty stomach). Same amount of muscle, just a whole less fat and a lot more pussssies.

Carb-induced insulin severely stunts the production of natural HGH. HGH is the key. Fuck the carbs, fuck the protein, fuck the shakes, fuck all that nonsense BS. You need to focus on the HGH. HGH production is peak during the workout and 90 minutes after your workout. That's not bro science.

[OTHstrong]

there is only one scenario when you have to eat post workout immediately and that is if you take insulin, other then that an hour or 2 can pass and it will make no difference, although I don't recommend and entire night, man would I ever be starving when i woke up if I did this

[Henda]

if you are hungy eat if not fuck it. It makes zero difference.
