Protoplex Deluxe


I have been drinking this supplement for sometime and im not sure whether im having it effectively?
I tend to have one shake from 9am to 4pm with about 2-3 litres of water. Then i do my workout at the gym.
Is this okay? Or is it better for me to drink the shake after my workout instead of a meal?

Because of the massive amount of them I've got I drink like 5 of these a day, they are real good stuff... however I wouldn't drink them after a workout the protein is nowhere near as fast absorbing as the whey you find in prolab etc, use it before a workout and then go with whey protein after.

Thank you for that info.
Another point, im not too keen on products as such. So would normal protein in foods suffice on comsumption after a workout instead?

Sure would, it's just that whey protein is the fastest digesting protein money can buy, so that's why most use it post-workout.
