when to eat meals, carbs, protein etc?
ok so i had a health nut roomate who told me that i should have a protein shake right after my work out...then 30 minutes later that i should have a meal such as chicken with white rice....i know brown rice is better but is white rice better after a workout or was he wrong?
also i take a protein shake right before bed, first thing in the morning, randomly throughout the day...and usually about 1.5 hours before lifting?
any recommendations? ideas?
Take the shake right after you workout then the meal like he said. I prefer brown rice but white does work also post work out. You could also have a shake when you wake up and half an hour (not hour and a half) before you work out but these two arent needed. I dont recommend the protein shake before bed, have cottage cheese before bed.
