I would go for 1 1/2 post workout. 40g of protein for a post workout shake is about average.

Depending on what you're actually putting in your body..
I take 1 1/2 scoops and do it three times a day. When i wake up, after training and 10-15mins before i go to bed.

apparently you're supposed to have 1gram of protein for every lb of body weight.. with that being said whey protein is a supplement so do what thou wilt

Here's how to find the real answer:

1. Calculate how much protein you need: 1 gram per pound of lean body mass, i.e. don't count body fat. So e.g. if you're 200 pounds and 20% body fat, you need 160g a day.

2. Figure out how much you're eating from regular food. You... you ARE logging your food, right?

3. Subtract your answer from step 2 from step 1 to figure out how many grams of protein you're short for the day.

4. From the label on your protein, figure out how many grams are in a scoop, and therefore how many scoops you need to compensate for the difference you calculated in #3.

5. If it just so happens that you're NOT actually short any protein for the day from regular food, then obviously your answer is 0.

2bqh i expected alot more fun posting, on that note


four scoops, Come on son.


64 scoops, 32 times

For every pound you want to gain 7 scoops a day. If you wanna be 200 lbs and you're 150, you know what to do.

Four. At an absolute minimum. There's literally no reason to do less.
