I’ve heard arguments from both sides. What is the PWO shake better to mix with water or milk? I mean, milk tastes better but which is more effective?
ITs better with SKIMMED milk. Why?
it has caesin and (i cant remember the name research document) the best for the body when it comes to shakes and PWO was to have all the types and that INCL caesin. Apologies for my horrible lack of technical and accurate words, but i have just come back from a days work and cant remember shit.
However with milk you have lactose… which is more calories which could be bad if you`re cutting… otherwise i suggest caesin powder.
I personally use around 200ml skimmed milk(roughly equal to 6.6g protein and 10g lactose) with around 100ml juice(for taste, usually around 10g carbs) and as much water as required + the supps

Why on earth would you recommend casein protein post workout?
And you say you take in 6.6g of protein post workout? Is this a joke?
OP.
Use whatever you like. Milk has calories, water doesn’t. Skim milk has more carbs than whole. Whole has more fat. Choose what fits in your diet.

x2
As long as you tolerate milk, there’s no problem with including it PWO as long as it fits within the nutritional strategy you’re following.
If you want to drink milk you should drink it at other times than pwo. You should find another source of carbs than lactose…Something like maltodextrin/dextrose or even fruit juice.

i suggest that you have ALL the types. IE concentrate, isolate, hydrolysed and caesin.
Because in the research document i`m remembering off, they made a comparison, i think it was related to protein synthesis or something… like i said i cant remember the details (but i do know it was something that PW was paramount to growth). against all the types of protein blends, the one with ALL the types came out on top!
Which is why i stated milk > water and that if ur cutting then use water + caesin powder so you dont get the nasty cals from lactose
No i did not state that i take 6.6g of protein, i stated what liquids i use to mix in my supps (man fucking read it properly) and what nutrients i get from them.
OFC incl carb sources like the above poster has stated… i mentioned lactose because its extra cals and you dont want to consume more carbs then you wish
It is fucking irrelevant to be honest.
Make sure the macro’s fit in your diet, like Bonez said, and drink whatever the hell you want post workout.
It’s more important you doing this 4-5 times a week for 5 years, than whether it is milk or water.
