    Best post workout meal in your opinion?


    Hello everybody.I was thinking what can be the best meal for post workout and i want to hear your opinion and youe explanation too.I am drinking 400 ml 1.5% fat milk with 1.5 scoup protein.And after 40 mins to 1 hour i am eating beef 120g with rice.I have heard that milk isnt good imidiately after work out but i didnt see any bad effect in my body.Also a psychics teacher who was a weigh lifter told me that is so good to drink milk after.

    Milk has a fantastic ratio of carbs to protein. Double up on the milk and drop the flavored, powderized milk. Like wheat, milk is only bad if you can't tolerate it but get's demonized for the entire population.

    What did you hear about milk specifically? The only real argument I can think of is the fat content slowing down absorption rates compared to isolated whey protein but if you are keeping a steady stream of aminos flowing through you anyways, this won't matter and technically a post workout shake or double down glass of milk is just another meal to be worked in to your schedule.

    Milk is awesome. But chocolate milk is even better! Good carbs and protein.

    Milk is fine. There is nothing inherently wrong with it. What your doing now sounds fine.

    1.5 cups mixed frozen berries
    2 scoops whey
    1 teaspoon of barley grass
    4 tablespoons of greek yogurt
    1 scoop dextrose
    2 teaspoons of creatine

    its packed with carbs, protein and micro nutrients

    if i can i then follow up with somthing like chicken and rice 45 mins later.

    Chicken and beef are both whole, animal protein. Various proteins do contain varying levels of certain amino acids but choosing one for the other would have a negligable effect on your physique in this case. You may technically get more of an important amino out of beef or chicken but in a mirror 6 months down the road you wouldn't see much difference.

    That said, the iron, b-vitamins, creatine and cholesterol in beef can provide added benefits to better oxygenated blood for work out capacity, energy, cell volumization and the substrate for testosterone production over and above chicken.

    Spaghetti with chicken sausage is one of my favorite meals post workout. Especially with the noodles I get from Costco just in the noodles alone is like 40 g of protein
