How many grams in your protein shake after a workout?

[HoustonLegend]

40-50 here.

Is that overkill?

No, because your body will eventually digest all of it anyways, just take a bit longer that's all. Also I do 40-50 myself as well and then have my post workout meal afterward.

I do between 1-1.5 scoops when cutting, and 1.5-2 scoops when bulking.

I don't have a post workout protein shake, i eat a meal at some point after my workout.

[justfive]

between 0 and 80

[BrahJamie]

I take 2 scoops. 40grm a scoop so 80 grm all together. The more the better :3

[roidrage03]

i take about 30-45 grams postworkout as well as some old fashioned oats in there (1/4 cup) to get some complex carbs)
-my protein intake fluctuates depending on my previous meals in the day the less i ate the more protein i put in my shaker
-whatever fits your macros work broseph

[treezn]

usually just have a pb&j. so zero gs in my shake lol.

[Coolcicada]

Somewhere between 50-60.

Its fine.

[bomfire]

Not overkill. I do two scoops, regardless of whether its 40 or 50 grams. Make sure to get a solid meal in afterwards, preferably within an hour or two

That's what I usually do.. 50-60... I've never had any indigestion.. I think that if you are in the gym killing it, then the demand is there!

[FastCatChamp]

Protein powder???? Where can you buy that?

[JohnDavis111]

About 45-50 here

[Fitnessluna]

I take 40 grams of protein and my post workout DARK MATTER. Then when I get home I eat 4 oz of chicken breast and 2 cups white rice is that good?

Strong bump thread from 2012 bruh

overall not going to make as much difference when, or nearly so compared to just getting it in throughout the day.

[MmmmGains]

44g twice a day so 88g from shakes.

[kissdadookie]

I don't see how that 1/2 scoop makes a difference to your overall diet regardless if you are cutting or bulking.

Also, yes, I know that post was from years ago. I just had to point the above out.

[hellstorm2004]

Cant say in terms of grams, coz all tubs have different serving size. But for me its a standard, two.

I will normally do 30-35 grams post workout then around an hour later eat a meal. I feel that whey is essential for post workout, just because of the digestion rate being a liquid.

to the Delorian Marty!

[italianplaya30]

[Gls133]

0-40

About three fiddy!

[hossjob]

40-50 here.

Is that overkill?

Depends. What is your body weight and how much protein are you taking in at other times throughout the day.

[TheGilmore]

If it's going to be a few hours until dinner, I just do a scoop. Otherwise, not even that.

[i3oosted]

40-50g

[LarsBoyd]

I usually have 2 scoops protein powder, 1 cup oatmeal, 4 ice cubes, 1 cup of milk, 3 tbsp of flaxseed, and 4 raw eggs in my shake after idk what the macros are lolz

[nevergain]

When I dont get to eat soon after, about 40g. But if I don't have to go straight to work after, I prefer to eat a meal. Today's post workout was spicy tuna on a palenta cake with guac and squash barley risotto with pan seared cod. Beats a shake any day.

[Rushie]

50-70g
