Pre/Post workout shakes.

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

Prove to me that milk gets absorbed faster than water

Btw milk is 87% water

Pre - food

post - more food.

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.

Free fatty acids will also attenuate Growth Hormone response as well, another reason why i only use water with my whey

Recently I've been making myself what I call the "Energiser BOMB"! A shake containing green tea which I prepare before my workout, glutamine powder, 1 scoop of whey, BCAAs powder, instant coffee and 1 banana. I blend all that and drink it through out my workout. It's a killer and really keeps me anabolic and helps me with my energy levels while I'm cutting. If I'm not cutting I'd only have a scoop of whey with BCAAs/glutamine/creatine and 1 banana or 50g of dates.
