Shakes

[JKurz1]

Now I'm hearing people talk about adding a protein shake with either flax or milk (or sometimes just a shake) with EVERY meal.....so, it would be your beverage when you ate breakfast and lunch and dinner...but, obviously not on top of meals that were just shakes (MRP)....anyone do this? I have one MRP mid-morning, one shake after training and one before bed. When I said I was going to add another MRP before training, I got flamed for "too many shakes"........what do you think? Anyone have a shake before AND after training??????

u mean have a shake as well as your meals?

Here is my take...

When I refer to a shake PWO it's whey/dextrose/malto/water...Any other shake I consume is whey/flax oil/water...On any given day I will have at least one shake, maybe two if I'm pressed for time. There is no doubt about it, real food is better then a shake...If I eat a predominately carb food (i.e. oatmeal) I will either have a protein shake (in water) or add a scoop of protein in the oatmeal and mix.

when i'm bulking, i try to add a protein + milk shake if my stomach has room ... but then again, when i bulk, i do just that: BULK. a lot of people on here like to take it slow and only go 250 cals over maintainence. to each his own
