My question is about Whey Protein. When should you take it, how often? I've been taking a Muscle Milk shake after I work out, I also heard you should take it more then once a day and on your days off? Anyone know what works best? My diet isn't the best, but isn't horrible bad.
Ditch the Muscle Milk - loaded with carbs/sugar. Try a leaner protein such as Isopure.

Got turned on to Dymatize Elite Gourmet from this site. I'm sold. Tastes great, is a caseine/whey blend, and cost is affordable as well.
This is what I use as well. Very cheap, tastes great, instant dissolving.
What do you mix your powders with? Water, juice, milk, mix of things?
Does each product suggest what you should mix with?
I never took supplements in HS or college, but now that I look back I wish I could have. Got back in to working out this year and I cannot believe how much more muscle mass you can build with protein. I take Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard (the double chocolate is awesome) first thing in the morning and then immediately after working out.
If anybody wants some good info on good supplements, PM me. I have the in on some great pre-workout supplements that I've used and can REALLY tell a difference when I do and don't use. I'm not trying to build, so I don't take protein beyond my normal diet, but can also get you some great product info on post-workout stuff.
Myofusion is a decent profile protein; if you can find the right deals; bannana perfection or cookies n cream are awesome
Whey Protein alone is fast absorbing so best time is upon waking to get into positive nitrogen balance, and immediately after working out to get protien into your muscle so to speak. Casien (Milk) protein takes longer to absorb and is typically better for right before bed, so you have some digesting while you are sleeping.
X2 for Myofusion. I get 5lb container for under 40.00. The chocolate tastes the best. I'm scared to try any other flavors because the chocolate mint was a bust and I have to endure 5lbs of it! A scoop of chocolate mixed in a bowl of Greek yogurt, put it in the freezer for 45 minutes and it tastes like softserve.
X2. Due to budget restraints, I don't buy a separate whey and casein so I use whey for day use and after workouts and then was eating cottage cheese before going to bed for the slow release casein properties to keep me nurished while sleep.
try delicious strawberry....well i wouldnt recommend it with water, but with milk its like a beautiful and young Jennifer Aniston blowing in your mouf!
