When to use protien shakes

R

Hi, im thinking about getting some protien shakes for working out and i was wondering when i should have them, before or after the workout?
 
Both.

One as soon as you wake up. One half an hour before a workout, and one straight after a workout.
 
A micellar caesine is always good to have before you go to bed to keep in positive nitrogen balance through out the night. Such products as Ultimate Nutrition Magic milk and Max's Nitetime formula are probably your best bets.

from what i have been told one as soon as I wake up and one after workout and one just before bed.....

is it just me or does taking these protein shakes first thing in the morning play with ur guts a bit???
 
Just eat eggs in the morning, the protein will absorb quick enough and it's more tasty and satisfying.
 
If your like me and still cant comprehend spending $100 on a tub of protein that will only last a few months, just take one after every workout. So for me thats 4 times a week atm. Just make sure youre getting enough protein during the day.
 
You guys know of any particularly good Protein brands?

For example, i've heard of Venom 100% Pure Whey Protein, which is apparently quite good. Any help?

I have one first thing in the morning mainly because I am not hungry until an hour or so after I get up.As to when I have the other one it`s after a workout or it depends on how much protein and when I have eaten during the day to keep my intake as constant as possible.
