Got a few questions regarding protein shakes....
If I take casein at night there is virtually no point in taking a protein shake in the morning I'm assuming?
So for the protein shake concept taking a shake pre and post would be the ideal use?
Optimum Nutrition Complex the serving size is 2 scoops but is that necessary, could I just use one scoop of protein or would that defeat the purpose
Hey there. Taking a shake in the morning (a regular shake, not casein) would be fine...by the time you wake up, all the casein has been digested.
As far as pre/post goes...it's good, but not required. POST workout is required, preworkout can be a good meal 1 hour before training.
lastly, you want to take in about 30-40g of protein with each shake...that means 1 and 1/2 scoops should do the trick.
