Um why do you take milk post workout,? use water. it gets absorbed quicker.

Pre : banana, creatine( recently), packet of crisps :P

Post : protein shake with a scoop of oats. half a pack of nuts. dextrose with water and carb protein meal half an hour later to space between the insulin spikes

should be good enough

because it hastwo types of protein and carbs. and more importantly it has more calories than water

[xPapaGx]

pre doesn't really matter that much. basically just have a good amount of slow digesting carbs and protein 1-3 hours before you work out, so that you have enough energy to hit the gym hard. honey is probably not good cause you don't wanna crash, you want like oats or something. post, you want quick carbs and quick protein. mix 25% of your weight (pounds) in grams of whey protein isolates with 25% of your weight in dextrose

You're asking about milk and you have half a pack of nuts? Fat slows gastric emptying much more than 6.4g of casein protein (which is what's in 1 cup of milk) does dude

okay fine maybe im in the wrong with the whole half a bag of nuts post workout but we can all agree that water is better when mixing with whey unless its low-fat for quicker absorbtion.

and for the OP yes milk does have more calories protein carbs than water but water is the best post workout since you only have time period afterwards where your postworkout drink/meal is highly anabolic so make the most of it. have your milk another time.

Tell me what anabolic means.

Tell me exactly how much faster the absorbtion rate is from milk to water.

Your just nitpicking little things that don't matter. And reading way too many musclemags

Skim or 1/2% milk is quicker than whole or 2%. Then use a bottle of water as a chaser. lol

[kinnan10]

Milk is a good thing to use it gives you more protein but it does slowly digest into your body i would say water is better maybe a warmer water so it mixes better and runs through your body better and faster. now the whole thing with the nuts and crap is just stuff that u can add if u want dont need to but im sure it makes it better

Simple.

[Gabeslocum]

Pre:
A banana and a glass of orange juice, a tablespoon of honey.

Post: Milk, two tablespoons of peanut butter, two tablespoons of almond meal and a scoop of protein powder.


So guys, what goes in yours?

For pre workout i just eat about .30g of carbs per pound of body weight and .25g of protein per pound of body weight with about 24oz of water after the meal leading up to the workout (about an hour to an hour and a half later) simply put: a chicken sandwich and a big glass of water.

Post workout I have a shake that has about .5g of carbs per pound of body weight. and .25g of protein per pound of body weight and i avoid fat because it slows digestion. so... i avoid peanut butter. again, simply put: about 24oz of water, a scoop of protein powder, some dextrose, and 5g of creatine.
