Do you wake up in the middle of the night to drink a shake?

Do you wake up for a protein shake then go back to bed?

I would never set an alarm to do this, if I were to wake up to piss I might grab something, probably not because I'm to lazy at night. But you should never set an alarm from this, you need as much uninterrupted sleep as you can get!

No...

Even if I did wake up to piss and was hungry I would not further disrupt my sleep by taking the time to prepare something to eat or drink.

I try not to eat anything after 6pm or so, I know i should have a no/low carb snack to keep my metabolism going but, i can' think of what to eat, and i'm not kranking the blender up at 12pm to wake up the house.

Sometimes i do start my day with some isolade zero carb protein with water..... and sometimes end my day with that 2.

that's a good idea water logged, I always have a 64oz stein next to my bed and i wake up 3 or four times to take a sip to go back to sleep, throw some isolade zero carb in there, and i'll be golden.

I take a shake just before but and never set my alarm to wake up purposefully. Actually, ever since I have been taking USP Labs REM3G, I rarely wake up in the middle of the night at all. However... before REM3G.... if I did wake up to hit the head, I would knock back a Muscle Milk RTD. Quickest and easiet 42 grams of protein ever. Half the time I wouldn't even remember doing it but would see the empty carton in the trash in the morning.

I will drink one if I wake-up but I make sure that I take one just before bed to close off the day.

me too. I eat every 2-3 hours throughout the day so I see no need to interupt my sleep to eat at night.

i do if i get up. experts in sleep say to get 8 hrs strait without any interuptions or noise. if i do get up in the middle of the night ill get a shake. (if im concious enough to relize it)

seriously guys sometimes ill get up eat a snack like soem combos or somethign and not relize it intill the middle when im eating and my mother will say John your not supposed to be eating that. and i go o **** and quick stop it and get a shake.

for the most part i conciously try to get a protein shake in if i get up I dont wake myself up on purpose(used too) like Jay cutler does or many pro bbers do .
