How is your POST WORKOUT SHAKE ?

[view]

I've done it all PWO.

Everything from a litre of milk to oats/cottage cheese to whey/dextrose.

And do be honest, i've never noticed a difference. Not saying the difference isn't there, but the most important thing is that you get some carbs/protein in your immediately after training.

2 scoops all sport
1.5 scoops orange cream whey protein powder
1.5 cups water
2 ice cubes

all blended up.
take with 10 grams of creatine (I take the creatine straight)

How high do you go on the carbs ?

Man , I loved these ABB Extreme XXLdrinks. 220 grams of carbs and 50g protein in one bottle. But the loading on carbs carbs cause your HDL to drop.

Why milk pwo?? Eggs?? Raw?? Bananas (fructose) do nothing for glycogen replinishment either, the main purpose of the PWO meals. You may wish to change this up, just a suggestion.

I was told it helps to increase the amount of protein your taking in.. at the gym the protein shakes they offer usually always has banana in it,.. like banana + peanutbutter etc..
Looks like I need to rethink this. I know next to nothing abot glycogen replinishment.. I thought the point of drinking a shake post workout, was to get some more protein into your body to help repair your muscles?

Being totally sincere...how many of the pros do you think pound a glucose/whey shake post-workout? I'll bet very few.......SC - what do you think?
