    Protein

    Well...
    As I sat down to drink my 2nd glass of muscle milk for the day, I started to wonder what are the differences between types of protein, and what is everyone out there using?

    P.S....
    If you havent tried muscle milk... You're crazy. Its as good as a dessert.

    Whey is the way to go immediately post workout because of its rapid digestability.

    Muscle Milk is mostly caesin, which is not bad, but is not ideal for post work out.

    Caseins are great for drinking before bed or on off/recovery days.

    Protein is best absorbed post workout with high gi carbs (maltodextrin, dextrose, etc) following your workout, needless to say in liquid form. You want to avoid fats in your post workout shake (so that rules muscle milk out even further) as they are the easiest of the macronutrients to absorb and will slow down your muscle recovery.


    Muscle milk is a great product, but is not good for a post workout shake. Will it have negative consequences? Probably not, but you could be drinkin a whey protein shake (probably cheaper, yet less tasty) which would be the better alternative.

    Soy protein is estrogenic and not a complete protein.

    Carbs to Protein ratio 3gs to every 1g***

    I'm just saying it's not good for a post workout shake, for a mrp or a night time shake, go for it and enjoy.

    could you explain that?
    All right now, son, I want you to get a good night's rest. And remember, I could murder you while you sleep.
    Hey son, I bought you a puppy today after work. But then I killed it and ate it! Hahah, I´m just kidding. I would never buy you a puppy.

    Not Complete= does not contain full spectrum BCAA'S and essentials.

    Estrogenic= chemical reactions in body causes production of estrogen (not enourmous amount, you won't grow man boobs unless your killing the soy protein).
