Shake with water or milk?

Hey guys, Im a bit of a noob on this site.

My PT at gym is suggesting not drinking my shakes with milk, what do you guys think?

Also, I usually have 2 eggs in the morning on toast. I have em scrambled cuz im allergic to uncooked eggs for some reason. But my trainer advised not too have too much egg white, just stick to the yolk.

Whats your opinion?

Cheers

Dale

firstly.
Are you fat?
 
Right after training - Protein with water and a simple carb source...I like waxy maize (I think this is counted as a complex carb but acts like a simple carb)

Anyother time of the day can be taken with milk or water - if with water I would suggest adding 1 tablespoon of olive or almond oil into the shake..1. to slow down the protein getting into the system and 2. for the health benefits.

And with the eggs - just eat the whole egg.

I always have water with my WPI. I have never tried it with milk, i could imagine that it tastes a lot better but i think it taste good enough with water. Milk will only slow down the release of the WPI and that is the last thing you want when your having it directly after your workout. You have Protein Shakes because of the positive effects it has in your body not for taste!

Hey guys thanks for your replies!

Well like Huggy B said, I am really looking to bulk up. I am not big and im not small, I want to put on the mass before cutting down.

With the eggs, I think he said to have one whole egg with the white, and then 3 extra yolks.

So do you guys recommend drinking the shake with milk before a workout? and drink it with water after a workout and any other time of the day? He said that the milk just gets stored as fat in your system.

I must agree, With milk it tastes like a chocolate thick shake... with water it taste like crap haha.

Your PT is a joke. The milk wont be stored as fat unless you drink heaps of it and dont workout. Just remember to include the calories from the milk when counting your daily calories.

I drink a protein shake when i wake up, post workout and one before bed.
