Do yall mix ur whey protein wit milk or water??

[J-MIL]

Ive just started using whey and I heard mixing it wit milk slows down the digestion after a workout and you need that protein right away. But I look on my bottle of whey and it says only dieters should take it wit water.

Im torn on the two....Whats the pros and cons of both??

[Spliff Star]

you just said the pros and cons of both

For me, water after lifting, milk every other time.

[The Real]

I've always used water just from the standpoint that it's cheaper that way.

my friend has this and I mix it with water and a banana

ish is great after you've left it in the freezer to almost frozen status

depends on if I'm bulking up or trying to look ripped.....

ripped = water
bulk = milk

kinda hard to bulk at the gym with milk......... though

You want your pwo drink to absorb as quick as possible, regardless what your goals are.

Drink with a simple sugar for optimal absorption.

Protein, creatine, and dextrose is my pwo drink.

do u cop the whey protein wit the creatine mixed already in it or do u just get em seperately?

[Mr Hate Coffee]

I've always drank it with milk. Tastes better that way.

[Wondah_Woman]

I take it with water most of the time. If I'm substituting it during a meal, I'll use soy milk just to get that full feeling.

dude, you can just drink regular milk after working out and it works fine...of course whey is taken out of milk so it doesn't digest as quickly, but it does help build muscle if you drink a tall glass of it.

but I only do that because it's my only resort right now. I'm not paying all that money for protein powder, I can't believe how expensive that sh1t is.

yeah milk is an excellent source of protein that's what I tend to use when I run out of powder and I get too lazy to go out and buy more.....

Water man

I used to have shakes w/milk and sugar... 20# of fat later I learned my lesson

[Mr Hate Coffee]

Post some recipes with water... cuz that shyt is disgustya w/o milk to me

[I_Spits_Da_Truth]

without milk......regardless of goal and with a simple sugar as previously stated in this thread. And no, drinking milk after working out is not a substitute for a protein shake
