Re: Home made sport shakes?

[Guest guest]

I use a protein carb shake immediately after intense powerlifting workouts

in order to replenish my muscles and get stronger. It's at least 60 grams

simple sugars and at least 40 grams easily digestible protein.

If you can drink milk then milk makes an excellent protein shake - just mix

milk, vitamin/mineral powder, bananas, honey or maple syrup - you name it the

sky is the limit.

For those that are lactose intolerant; I'd suggest making protein shakes

with lactose free whey protein, soy protein, egg white protein, something

without lactose.

Currently I am using Isopure zero carb protein shakes in bottles after

training. I drink one bottle. Then refill the bottle with orange juice and

drink

it. That's @ 60 grams simple sugars and 40 grams protein. I also have a

meal after training but I minimize the fiber because I want the food to digest

quicker. At the rest of my meals I make sure to eat plenty of vegetables and

fiber.

trained with, among others, Bodybuilders ( Oliva), Strength

Athletes (Fred Hatfield/Rich s), and fitness/wellness folks such

as Mike Yessis, and have always given the best knowledge at hand and

been a sponge for information myself. How about sharing your favorite

self designed shakes, when to drink them, and why. Thanks.
