What do you mix Whey Protein with - milk or water?

[os90]

What do you mix your whey with, milk or water? Thought I'd create a poll to see what the majority mixes with.

I use water atm but if I use semi-skimmed milk will it make me fat?

[Shaggytph]

i u wanna create a poll you have to create a poll.

in any case i mix mine with water i feel like mixing it with. i usually go with H2O post workout and milk in the morning

so right after i post this u created the poll.

me?

[pm39120]

me?

no not you...i was talkin about the OP

[MattR]

water post-workout, milk anytime else.

and yeah, 5'8" 139, you should be mixing it with milk, peanut butter, oats, fruit, and anything else you can stuff in a blender.

[pm39120]

i would never mix it with water. It just makes it taste natsy.

[pandaren]

I mix mine with water despite the shake tasting 100x better with milk. I always get the runs when using milk probably due to my sensitive stomach.

[Dm84]

I use water because milk costs too much.

[BlueFenix13S]

I only use whey PWO, and I mix it with milk + other goodies

[Monkeybars]

Milk. Tastes proper good with my ON chocolate mint

[Replicator]

I take whey post workout, mix it with water usually but have started using fruit juice.

[halfbaked]

On Cookies and Cream, I always mix with water, It is good that way would probably be awesome with milk.

[Fuerza_M]

Usually whey isolate with water

other proteins taste better with milk

[PadreC]

water and sometimes a little powdered milk.

[Rootoo]

Both.

Ff Milk All The Time Except Right After My Workout

[Ryan314]

Not sure how you guys can drink them all the time with water... pretty nasty.

Milk all the time.

[AgreeWitMe]

I use milk for PWO

[Diana Meeque]

milk

[ChingChang]

milk, because it has 8g more protein per serving than water. It also has carbs which is nice PWO. And it tastes better.

[TT.Stone]

Whole milk here

Do you do only whey + milk for your PWO?

[SpiderSense]

Oh man do I wish I could mix it with milk. It was so good clumps and all.

I used to drink tons of milk then I found out I'm mildly lactose intolerant after much milk was drunken

Now I very rarely consume milk or milk products.

[ChingChang]

Do you do only whey + milk for your PWO?

no, my PWO shake is 1 scoop whey, 1 scoop casein, 20oz milk, and I eat two bananas on the side.

You think there's any downsides to just whey + milk? Right now I'm throwing honey in there, but Ive recently started using Purple Wraath during workouts and eating a high carb meal about 30-60 mins after I leave the gym, so I'm thinking I don't need the high carb shake immediately after.

that's probably fine, but I think it would be beneficial to continue to add the honey or some other carb to your shake.

[fates_child03]

I use both lol. Depends when I'm having a shake etc.

[alm21]

I mix mine with water in the morning and take it with me in a cooler and drink pre & post workout late in the day. Does anyone know if whey protein losses potency after sitting in water all day? Should it be consumed immediately after mixing?

[BodySculpting]

Water pre and post workout so it can be absorb quicker and protect the muscles during the WO and then reach them as quick as possible after the WO.

Any other time I usually rely on actual food. If I do drink a Whey shake any other time, it's either to supplement a current meal (extra protein) or I usually carry around one in my bag at work in case I get stuck working later or have nothing to snack on.
