Post Workout Shakes

[Kaiser]

Hey Fellas,
I was reading in one of the grunt magazines this week about supplements. The guy listed a post workout shake as a really good one. I have never taken a shake that was *specifically* post workout. Can you name a couple of good ones that aren't to hard on the stomach? Also, what exactly is the difference in chemical makeup or special ingredients as apposed to something like a normal RTD 40 or 51 protein shake from MetRx? In other words what makes it post workout specific?

After a hrad workout you deplete your body of nutrients and glucose, and the body is hungry for protein (whey protein 40 to 50 mg) and a fast carbohidrate(100 gr of Vitargo or dextrose or maltodextrin ), also is good to add BCCAS and GLutamine powder in to ths shake to prevent the muscle breakdown.
Some people who beleave in creatine adds creatine to this shake.
At this moment you body releases a larg amount of insulin creating an anabolic statement, wich you need to aproach and eat after 1 hour a good amount of a quick complex carb and fibrous carb with a bif steak

But is not enouff with a met-Rx or Mioplex.

Also you can make a search here, is a lot of good material writed by our friendly members.

IF yor getting enough nutrients from whole foods throughout the day the extra bcaa's and what not maynot be neccessary. But we all differ in what we need and what we can handle. My post workout shake is simple and very tasty. It's 2 (1/3 cup) cups protein from trueprotein (ion exchange) with 2 packets instant oatmeal. So it comes out to 60 grams protein and 60g carbs and some cold water shaken together for a great taste.

I've been using Synthepure following workouts with micronized creatine with good response.

YEP!!!

I've been using Synthepure following workouts with micronized creatine with good response.

I do the EXACT same thing, however I cycle the creatine on and off, also use glutamine in it...

I usually put ice in the blender, filtered water or milk depending on the time of the year, then a banana, nutella, synthepure, creatine/gluatamine, and sometimes a little dextrose if using 'slin...
