Most people say you have 30 min get your PWO shake in after a workout, but does hat include if you do cardio. Like if I workout for an hour, but then do cardio for 45 is my anabolic window gone because I didn't take my shake right after I worked muscles?

No that is not what that means, entirely. It may reduce the effectiveness of your PWO nutrition. Since your body is still performing labor intensive exercises, it is busy trying to fuel it with what is in your system. With the cardio after, you are likely still burning off glycogen stores and using that, with some fat and protein of course, as fuel. Once your body begins to rest, the body begins the repair process. It is no longer trying for resources to fuel the exercise, it is not looking for resources to replenish those that have been used. Without proper PWO nutrition, your body will repair the glycogen stores using protein and fat, leaving a lack of protein available for protein synthesis/repair. Basically, it is not that the window as been lost, but you may burn extra nutrients like proteins as well as fats, however. If your workouts are really as long as you say (intense of course), intra workout nutrition would be beneficial to you.

After cardio should be fine, or you could have it during your weight training before cardio.
Cardio will burn (some of) the aminos from the blood, but those aminos will be in the blood for 4 hours or so anyway and you do not have to be 100% perfect with this. Pretty close is better than not at all.
Do what feels best to you on any particualr day. What makes you feel strongest and most recovered that day. You will still make gains with either choice, the key is getting the protien inside you.
Try different ways and see whch works best for YOU personaly. I train before cardio and I do protien within 45 minutes after cardio and I can make great gains with it.Last edited by vegas_dude; 02-27-2010 at 08:52 PM.
