The Best Post-Workout Protein Shake
December 16, 2008 | Leave a Comment
It is important for all of us to provide our bodies with a sufficient amount of protein. Post-workout nutrition MUST consist of a percentage of simple carbohydrates to improve the total uptake of protein and replete lost glycogen.
Here’s the info you need:
1 liter of whole milk
20 grams of whey protein Isolate
20 grams of egg protein power
2 small scoops of peanut butter or almond butter
1 serving of Basic Chain Amino Acids
1 serving of Flax seed oil
Make sure you take it with a multi vitamin
This protein shake is delicious, I’m sure you’ll agree once you taste it. It goes down so easily and it fills you up. In addition, it provides you with at least 40 grams of protein that will be absorbed at a variety levels over the duration of three to four hours. I recommend this powerful drink to all athletes.
No bodybuilder should be without protein. Unlike many supplements you will find, the choice doesn’t have to be hard. Simply mix it up, get as many proteins as you possibly can depending on your situation. Remember, milk and eggs should form the base …meat, vegetable and whey powder have their merits too.
Last but not least – you should never think of protein as supplementation. Your core nutrition should be protein-dense foods. The next time you think of food, when you get hungry, think about the protein.
