Max protein post-workout

So i read somewhere that it takes like 30g protein for protein synthesis to start, but whats the max amount you can have per meal without it getting wasted?

The reason im asking is, I do 100mcg shot of ghrp6 directly post-workout and then after 30mins i have my post workout meal - this is 6 slices of bread with jam and also 60g of whey.

I want to know if I can add protein to this meal as it often leaves me still hungry and eating every 30mins or so there after...

Thanks

Swop the 6 slices of bread and jam for chicken and 2 cups of rice and I bet u won't have the hunger issue, u are hungry as u don't have any solid protein in this meal.and I usually have guys have 30-50g fast acting protein post work out and 40-50g solid protein post that.

Okay will do thanks dj, but chicken and rice everyday is gonna kill me! :sick: :lol:

But I will definitely try that every second day or so. Thanks alot

Hey Gorilla, I'm sure it doesn't HAVE to be chicken and rice. As long as it is a solid protein. Fish, Steak, Chicken etc.....

DBatDBN: I know that bro, but you get sick of meals like potato/rice/pasta/couscous + meat sooner or later...Thats the problem hahaha! :lol:

Pff, tell me about it. I have tried being creative with gravy's, mushrooms, etc. But it is tough.
Been buying Low GI seeded rolls and load them with chicken. A very nice break from the usual.
10 or so Provitas with Tuna.
Durum wheat pasta with Denny's mushroom sauce + chicken/beef (This sauce is actually very low in "crap")
Running out of ideas!

:blink:

I feel for you bro! Hence the bread and jam post workout - It cant be THAT bad if your bulking and happen to be blessed with a fast metabolism, i mean 150g carbs in one meal that doesnt even fill you is great!!

Oh and about your food problem haha, try mince with thos KNORR bobotie packets and some egg fried rice...

Or a chicken stirfry with the healthiest sauce you can find that actually tastes like something whahaha.

Cheers bro

ive always thought 40g a serving is the max and i still have 35-40 per meal but I read an article awhile back (trying to find it) it claimed that the fastest absorbed protein as we know is whey which is absorbed at 8-10 grams an hour, so if you have say 40g whey it would take roughly 4 hours to be absorbed...

problem being it takes the protein 1.5 hours to reach the intestine(or something) at which time what hasn't been absorbed is rendered useless...

look i don't know how true this is, ill post the link when i find it and you can judge for yourself...

I drink about 100g of protein post workout in the form of protein powder and milk. Then i go and eat about 50g in a solid form like meat or chicken. At the end of the day the only thing that matters is that you meet your calorie goals so to speak. I do however incorporate IF and one of my meals is equal to about 2 normal meals :silly:
