How many grams of Protein & Carbs in your Post-workout Drink?

[JoNeS]

I currently take a 40g pro 40g carb shake. But shouldn't You have 1.5 times the carbs as you do protein?

What about the first meal 45-60 mins later after the pw shake. What should the protein and carb ration be there.

thanks

There is no magic formula....shut up and train.

If your diet is not in check it really doesn't matter how hard you train.

bout 40 40 as well. plus a coffee. i have read a lot of reports etc which advocate higher carbs immediately post workout, but imo, as long as you are having a shake or something straight after, then youve done what you need to. keep your eye on total nutrition imo.

I did some homework on this one and I mix in 70g of protein concentrate (not powder weight, but how many grams are actually in the powder) with 50g of dextrose. This is usually after a very long /hard lifting session or after a very long/intense track session.

Towards the end of my workout i begin drinkin an isopure or some other whey drink. I then wait 30-40min and will eat a baked potato and some chicken and a salad.
