Gotta make sure it's the 70% cocoa. Otherwise you're just short changing your strength gains.

I heard Mexican and Cuban chocolate give the best strength gains while Ghana and Venezuelan chocolate may damage gains. Chocolate that had no positive or negative effects were Dominican, Tanzanie, and Saint-Domingue chocolates.

I usually inject about 500 mg of chocolate per day. I'm pretty hardcore.

Chocolate milk does wonders.

[SpicyWaffles]

Chocolate itself? Nah. I do like Chocolate milk with my shakes though.

You might benefit from a little sugar rush but it won't add strength.

Sounds like broscience unless you misunderstood the context. This is a copy pasta on Chocolate Milk.

Post-workout chocolate milk is beneficial because of its protein content. Every cup contains between 8 and 11 grams of protein. Ideally, you’ll want to consume between 15 and 25 grams of protein after a workout, which equates to 500 to 750 ml of chocolate milk.

Also, a study in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition found that, when taken immediately after exercise, milk-based proteins promote greater muscle protein synthesis than soy-based proteins.

Finally, another reason why post-workout chocolate milk is beneficial is because cow’s milk contains about 80% casein protein content and 20% whey protein content. This is ideal because the whey protein is fast-acting, allowing amino acids to get right into the muscle tissue, while the casein protein is digested slower, providing a steady stream of amino acids over a lengthier period of time.

Jesus Christ, do people seriously drink chocolate milk after training?

I think Louie Simmons said something like "Stop drinking chocolate milk and learn about real nutrition" in regards to getting stronger. The numbers on the label sound great. There is plenty of USDA backed studies on how awesome milk is for you... keep in mind they are raising the cows you are getting it from.

Most of the people on Earth have some sort of lactose or diary intolerance or sensitivity. This causes a host of inflammatory repsonses and can totally trash recovery. Plus, all of these ideal ratio's that people talk about in milk sound great and everything but it is simply not enough protein and carbs.

The only plus is the boost in calories because most people don't eat enough to get stronger anyway. Chocolate milk after training is just lazy.

I don't personally drink chocolate milk or muscle milk, doesn't fit in with my goals/budget. As I'm carb-cycling getting my carbs through lactose is not optimum.

eat MEAT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[brudman]

Chocolate has various anti-oxidants and other micronutrients. From a macronutrient perspective it's usually processed sugars and fats...so I really don't see why it's being touted as optimal.

Plus all the "Chocolate Milk vs. Surge" stuff out there is kind a joke (seriously a joke), just pointing out that Surge and other "recovery supplements" are about as effective as milk and corn syrup.

Just use logic for a second. If chocolate milk (milk + a little cocoa + corn syrup) is so great for you, why isn't milk better?

100g of casien/whey/hydro mix, 60g dextrose/maltodextrin mix (because that is all the human body can use in an hour), 5g creatine, 5g leucine, then at least 2 pounds of a dead animal an hour later.

Holy crap. And I thought myself taking 60g protein post workout was a lot. Think I'll up it to 80 now.
