Protein Powder

[dafish298]

hey everyone,
I have been on Optimum Nutrition's Gold Standard whey protein powder (strawberry) for around a month now. I usually take it only after I work out, which ends up being every tuesday, thursday, saturday. I use a full scoop as recommended with milk. I am wondering if it is benefical for me to take it every day, even if i dont work out? Or i was possibly thinking about working out lightly at my home (since i have a medicine ball and bench press etc..) 2 extra days and possibly taking it after those work outs totalling 5 a week. Just wondering what you guys think and anything else in general you know about whey protein powder would be appreciated.
Thanks for your help.

U shouldnt take whey protein with milk after training cause milk slows down the release of the protein and u need to feed ur muscle asap use water. Mix whey and milk before bed if u like. Yes i would take ur protein even on non training days cause u want yur body to stay in a anabolic state.

Skimmed milk is not the same as water, milk takes hours to be broken down in the stomach so by mixing whey with milk it acts more like caesium protein which is slow releasing which is ideal before bed but not after training.....but u knew that didnt u.

Give me bad karma u ***** it will make u feel better

but skimmed milk(red top) is so thin, that the breaking down process is shorter than full fat milk.

I never mentioned full fat milk in comparison to skimmed we are talking about skimmed and water

I thought skimmed milk is light-blue top and full milk is red top.
