Sorry..............Post Workout MRP..........does that make you feel better..........

I aim for real food, so I just like to cut up a chicken breast into peices, and then put it on top of pasta. Then put some cheese on it, maybe some sauce. Pretty damn simple, but has lots of carbs and protein and some fat (if butter added). You don't have to be Betty Crocker for this one....

Bro do a search on post workout shakes. You are not maximizing your recovery. You need high glycemic carbs and easily digestable protein. Your body is catabolic after a hard workout.

You beat me to it. Post workout is one of the few times a shake is better then a knife and fork meal.

food protein is much better

I don't care what anybody says, I know the quality of protein you get from cottage cheese, chicken breasts, tuna, eggs is better then any protein shake. I only use 2 or maybe 3 shakes a day when I am on my cycle. When off cycle I don't use them at all.

1. after my workout.
2. before bed.
3. first thing in the a.m.

just my .02

Ignorance is bliss...

Bro do what you want...but answer me this.

Name ONE Pro Bodybuilder that eats a meal instead of a shake post workout?

Let me answer for you (to save time) There are none.

Bro it is for your own good..do some research. You need your body to release insulin. You need protein fast.

Although I agree with you that a shake is best for post workout, there are some bodybuilders that have a meal after there workout. I am not positive on who but I think one of the guys is known as "The King" or some shit. There was an article on him in last month's Health and Fitness. Im not positive about this though, so if Im wrong its my bad
