Hi
For the past 7 months over above food, I’ve been taking whey protein for added meals and as an after training drink.
I’ve been made some descent gains since I’ve started training, but I was wondering if my after training drink needs to be altered from just a regular whey protein.
I’m not from the US so I don’t have access to the same supplements you do, but basically the companies around here usually offer a whey protein and a product they will call “Mega Grow” or “Grow” or something along those lines.
Would it better to take whey protein for added meals but take the “grow” products for after training
This is the nutritional info.
This is the whey protein I am currently on:
