I usually take 2 protein shakes a day, one before weight lifting and one after Muay Thai and BJJ class. I was wondering how many shakes you take per day?

First Shake

Apple Juice & Coconut Water
Ice
Pineapple
Banana
1/2 scoop Greens+
1 Scoop Nature's Best Isopure Low Carb Dutch Chocolate
Oats


Second Shake

Milk
Ice
1 Scoop Nature's Best Isopure Low Carb Dutch Chocolate
Oats
 
Before you get 30 replies suggesting to read the faq... go read it.
 
Umm, im not asking a question to know what's right or not, and yes I did read the faq. I am asking out of sheer curiosity? Like a poll basically.
 
What is coconut water? I've never heard of that. Are you referring to the milk inside of the coconut?

The low carbs, Im doing comps quite often so trying to stay at my weight. Why you heard it wasn't good or something?

Answer#2 Blend of coconut water,milk and juice. Atleast that's what the label says ;)
 
coconut water sounds interesting...

Anyway, I take 2 to 4 a day. One PWO assuming it's not a rest day, and 2 or 3 throughout my 12-hour work shift. I generally try to eat whole food when I get to work, a shake a few hours later, another real meal around mid-shift, a shake 3 hours later and another shake for the hour drive home.
 
Also, I'd cut out the apple juice. Read THIS for a good reason.

You sound a little angry and resentful. Do you need a hug?

I think everyone is alot nicer now. :icon_surp
 
I try to get to about 4 a day if possible although where possible i substitute my bedtime shake for cottage cheese so i have 3 protein shakes and a serving of cottage cheese
 
Including my PWO shake I try to squeeze in 2-3 a day. Usually one mid-morning, one PWO, and sometimes one at bedtime.

1 tablespoon of flax meal
3.5 grams of a fiber supplement
250 ml of V8 or similar product...

40-45 grams of whey
4 tablespoon of flax meal

and/or this...
40-45 whey...
10 ml fish oil
1 tablespoon of flax meal
7 grams of fiber supplement


In case your wondering...
My 2-3 meals are a lot more flexible, but I try to have <400 calories with a 33/33/33 fat/carb/protein ratio...
