should I drink a protein shake after each workouty? Im going to do wrestling at 10-11am should I take a 30g protein shake and then at like 5:30-6:30pm fitness class then 6:35-7:45 kickboxing then another 30g protein shake. Or should I take all the protein after the last class? Im 18 and 5'9 and a guy. (Btw i lost internet for a few days)

it really doesnt matter as long as you are getting enough protein throughout the day. i drink one after each workout but thats just part of my routine
though i suppose you probably wouldnt want to drink a shake right before doing kickboxing, that may end up with a mess on the floor0 -
I wouldnt drink it before any workout, I mean after the fitness and kickboxing ill drink another one0

Dude, protein shakes are nothing more than a means to meet your daily protein intake goals. THAT'S IT!
It won't magically build muscles overnight. Just eat food in between those times like you usually would.
If you see you're short on protein for the day, and don't want to eat any meat or chicken, then have a shake.0 -

I do remember reading a study abstract where their results suggested a few point gain in protein uptake if imbibed within a 2 hour period after cessation of a prescribed resistance regimen. I'm not sure where I found that though, and a few point gain isn't really enough to matter for the bulk of the people out there.0 -
I mean AFTER the workouts. Also is this bread good to eat?
