Whatever you like. Unless you are an elite athlete, nutrient timing makes no difference. And if you were in that category, you'd have someone telling you what to eat.5

So I can eat whatever I want after my workout?0

I usually have lunch. A good mix of protein and some carbs. Unless you are a high level athlete, eat whatever you prefer.1

Ok thank you both0

Well a protein, carb and healthy fat.
If i workout in the morning i dont eat until lunch. I workout 930-1030
If its an afternoon workout 2-3 pm i eat dinner at 5-6pm. There is no need to eat right after a workout. Or before either. My breakfast is my meal before morning workout and my lunch is my meal before an afternoon workout
Unless you are elite athlete or bodybuilder that has to eat 6 times a day because they burn so many calories or need to really bulk and need to fuel all the time.
