Chocolate milk is a great choice. If refrigeration is a problem, use powdered milk + chocolate mix (Nestquick, Ovaltine, etc).Originally Posted by Jim K

hmm... decent protein powder should be cheaper than other sources. especially sources like beef or chicken. calculate it out, a tub of protein gives you much more protein for the price of a bag of chicken. you gotta convert ratio's tho. like for 10 dollars of the protein tub and 10 dollars of chicken. more protein is in the supplement.

Consistency is key.

Ha, I know a girl who told me that chocolate milk was the BEST thing you could have following your workout. I told her she was wrong, that whey protein shake was much better. She responded with the classic "well thats what my personal trainer told me and I think they would know better than you"Originally Posted by -TC-
People assume that time is a strict progression of cause to effect, but actually, from a nonlinear, nonsubjective viewpoint, it's more like a big ball of wibbly-wobbly timey-wimey stuff.
