what is in your postworkout shake

[=w=]

I use the recovery formula from protein factory (vanilla or orange flavor, sweetend w/ splenda):


45g dextrose
20g maltodextrin
25g hydro 520 whey
5g glutamine peptides
5g BCAA

I like Optimum nutritions Power Mass 1000. The chocolate is yummy It has about 800 calories mixed with skim milk and you get about 50 grams of protein and 140 grams of carbs.

how does body digest that kind of intake? you probably eat too? is the body actually able to process no matter what the amount of calories/protein/carbs you put into your body postworkout or is there some sort of limit????

I usually have 50g of whey, either CytoPro or HumanoPro and honey - the amount of honey depends wether I'm bulking or cutting.

Post-cardio, I have a sweet potato and baked coley/cod steaks (45g of pro.)

I use BioTest Surge, high priced but kicks ass, then hr later a huge bkd potato and half pound of top round, and a large salad.

When i am on a bulking diet I generally eat 6 meals a day with the calories of each meal in the 700-800 range. My after workout meal is the only meal with simple carbs, so I choose the Power Mass 1000 shake because it's an easy meal to make, and it has the simple carbs and a good amount of protein.

My post work out meal usually consist of a shake made from , strawberrys, blue berries, banana, blackberries, carrots and a yogurt mixed in a blender, and a small amount of protein power. I have seen a lot of improvements using natural food over carb/protein drinks. The fruits will give you all the vitamins, antioxidants, and enzyme's needed to recover from a hard workout and to prevent muscle wasting.

My shake consist of 2 scoops Isopure 0 carb with a banana and some frozend strawberries. Should I be puting anything else in there. I am not really trying to get too big.

2 scoops of optimum chocolate whey with water and adding 1 tbs of honey. Ordered some Myoplex so will use that as my post workout shake for a change hopefully it will get here soon.

I take 45g Whey and 100-120g dextrose when bulking also ½ can of tuna, but of course not in the shake..10g kreatin, 1g C-vit, 400mg ALA

When cutting(low carbs, med. fat, HIGH protein) I lower the dextrose to 30-40g.
