When do you take your protein powder?

[Silent Method]

i won't pretend to be as knowledgable as anybody on this board, but my reasearch has shown that on a daily basis a person should take in up to 2g of protein per pound of lean body mass.

For the most part your correct. The amount of protein you need to take in is debatable.

We're talking about athletes training to gain muscle, but a further distinction must be made between those using drugs and those not currently using drugs. Two grams of protein per pound is advisable for those on gear, as AAS greatly increase the potential fo nitrogen retention and protein sysnthesis. I know many on the board will disagree with me, but for most people 2g/lb is overkill if training naturally.

Immediately following workout, with glutamine and creatine mixed in.I use Optimum Whey.I also tend to make my protein pancakes 1-2 a day with any where from 2-4 scoops of powder

25g of my protein comes at every meal from powder, I'm at 370 per day total.

Same here, a nice round of protein at night does wonders.
