How much Protein post W/O shake?

[SaintLouis]

Just wondering how many grams of protien you guys take Post-w/o shake?

I take in about 70-75 grams.


Do you guys increase it when "on"?

 

[desman]

thats good, i wouldn't suggest much more though. personally i take in 50-60 w/ 40g dextrose

 

[mikebzt]

some where between 60-70 range

 

[SaintLouis]

Anybody in the 90-100g range? If so what is your weight and bf%

I get plenty of protein throughout the day... no need to take it all at once.

Unless you weight 50lbs, 100g of protien is not "all at once"

i have two scoops of whey with a pint of milk then my tea about 20 mins later.i eat like a horse when i get back from work-love food love it!

 

[SaintLouis]

I Love the food too

You know what I mean... why try to choke down as much as you can in one sitting. There's no need to take 100-150g post w/o.

I agree 150 is too much but a large bb could maybe use the 100g.....

I usually take in around 220 grams everyday while on. That includes one protein shake after I lift. At 25 grams. The rest is in eggs and chicken with some tuna in there. You don't want your protein to mainly come from shakes.

^ Exactly, your PW shake doesn't need 100g's of pro.
You should be looking at replenishing your glyc. rather than pro.

My carbon unit do not absorb more than 40-50 grams at once.

Assuming you take your protein/dextrose shake within 10 minutes after your workout, how long do you guys wait to eat your actual pwo meal?? And what do you have in it??

50-60 with 30gr dex and 30gr malto 1/2tsp CEE

Many of my meals have 100mg protein. Quite easy.....two cans of tuna, protein bar with shake, whole chicken, etc. It is difficult for some to digest appropriately.

i have my post workout meal about 1.5 hours after my shake, which i have about 5 minutes after my workout is over!

 

[theironclan]

I think I eat too much.

 

[liquidmuscle]

i thought the human body only absorbs 50grams of protein ever 2 hrs, so anything more than 50g would be shit out..i could be wrong

Bumpin dbbt......I agree. My focus is on glycogen stores immediately post workout as well. 80 g Carbs (from either cell tech or phosphagen HP) with about 30-40 g Pro. Then one hour later I'll eat another meal with 50-60 g Pro.
