Anyone eat fruit with there postwork meal? If so what kind you guys suggest? I know pineapple is for anti inflammatory. I thought I read before something to do with oranges and bananas. I appreciate the input
It is a bad idea unless you are in DNP, the fruit does not re-establish the muscle glycogen, leave it for another meal of the day.
Would honey be a better option? I see alot of guys using honey with white rice, bagels etc
Or is honey only good if using slin?

It's fine. Side note, there is zero evidence that carb consumption post workout leads to any added muscle hypertrophy. Protein is all that is necessary.
Honey is good and very healthy actually. I like to add it to a bagel PWO.
So many secrets of the pros in this thread
I think o have read that a small amount of fruit added to your regular carb sources enhance absorbtion. Either way I don’t worry about it and think it is a good idea to get some fruit in daily for nutrition. Lol I never do but still think it would be a good idea.
I would be interested to learn more about this. I know for myself, anecdotally, I used to eat carbs and protein post workout and was fine. I dumped carbs (outside of the vegetables that come in an omelet) and just pounded protein. I got leaner and have had some steady growth...so for me, I tend to respond well with very limited carbs PWO.
Here is a typical day for me pre-and post-workout.
0500= 25 grams whey protein isolate and 2 cups of black coffee
0530-0630= train
0730= Subway breakfast sandwich minus the bread. It is 4 egg whites paddies, 1 large serving of rotisserie chicken, cheddar cheese, green bell pepper, purple onion, jalapenos, spinach (according to nutritional content that amounts to 60 grams of protein and 10 carbs)
