So I went to a new supplement/nutrition shop while working today, I guess it was 3rd day open, their 'Grand Opening' week.
So I mostly went in to see how much Muscle Milk sells for, I like to help the local guys and all but it was really expensive so I was about to move on.
Dude comes over, a rep for a distribution company and tells me to draw a card and profers a deck for me. I pull a 3 of hearts with a picture of Cytogainer on it and lo and behold I win a 6lb tub, vanilla flavored.
So I'm reading the label, one serving 580 cals, 54gs of protein, some carbs and fats and stuff, buncha vitamins and all that.
Says take 3 times a day! Seems like WAY too much... ??? Imean shit, that's a lot of cals and protein and carbs from just shakes, right?
My question is, should I drink this stuff 3 times a day... it would only last a week like that, 18 servings in 6 lbs. I'm thinking it makes more sense to use it after my lift sessions, one serving per lift day.
Not sure if this matters: I have an OK diet, eat usually 4times a day, decent food, mostly chicken and steak, whole wheat pasta with spinach or broccoli and spices <- most of my diet right there. Also try to eat at least a serving of fruit a day. I take Mega Man Multi, Fish Oil and usually Muscle Milk for extra protein. It lacks, but it is improving.
I'm doing a 5x5, 3 days a week.
It's free shit so I'd like to use it. Any thoughts?
