There's a lot of debate around this, I'd personally treat your training (resistance) like any other and have your post workout shake alongside any pre and peri-workout nutrition you currently use.

However...when it comes to cardio, if it's HIIT I treat it like resistance training (especially if weights were involved) and have a post-workout shake, if it's fasted cardio I just eat my next meal (usually breakfast).

I don't tend to wait an hour though, there seems to be a lot of anecdotal evidence that this helps with extra fat loss but I haven't seen any evidence for it mate.

Maybe try it with your cardio and report back?
