I just took a run and I'm kind of getting sick of eating lunch meat when I'm done :sick:
So, what do you eat after working out? Peanut butter? Protein shake? Meat? Eggs?

Apex fit Oatmeal Raisin Protein bar.
Its freaking delicious! Doesnt taste like a protein bar at all .... it tastes like Chewy!!!!

Depends on the workout, but generally a protein shake. If it's a longer workout, a banana then a protein shake.0

I've been making whey protein shakes with some chia seeds and coconut milk. Delish! The chia has protein and thickens up the shake nicely. Then have a salad an hour later - with canned salmon or sardines and greek olives. No dressing!0

Chocolate milk.
THIS! And I also make no bake energy bites, I'll eat one or two of those depending on how far I ran.0 -
usually a protein shake, cottage cheese, greek yogurt, or eggs if I'm not in the mood to cook dinner :glasses:0

I'd say have your biggest meal of the day AFTER working out because your body will burn the calories faster so something high in protein but an overall meal. If you want something quick, whey protein isolate. If not try a tuna sandwich (using the whole can of tuna of course..)0

A glass or two of chocolate milk and maybe a banana. Bananas aren't too high in protein but I like them.0

I usually just avoid the problem by not working out.
Protein drinks are the simplest & easiest route. I like Syntrax Nectar brand, it mixes pretty well in a regular water bottle filled at the water fountain. No fuss. Failing that, I go for beef jerky, hard-boiled eggs, or cheese sticks.0 -
Organic choc. milk0

I always make a protein shake made into a thick milkshake. Such a wonderful reward for my effort and the iciness cools me off :P0
