    Im wondering about when I should drink my protein drink; after I finish my weights and befrore cardio or WAIT until after Iv finished cardio. It takes about 20-30 minuites to do cardio, so does it matter if i wait until after Iv done my cardio to down my protein? Normally weights takes about 50 minutes or so BTW.

    as far as I know you drink it after training - in order to speed up recovery...

    someone correct me if Im wrong though...

    it usually says on the container anyway... they usually recommend drinking it during the course of your day as well... but that depends on the type of training you're doing as well...

    For better results if its feasible you should try do your cardio on a different day then your weights, As for your post workout shake you should try drinking it as soon as you finish your last set.
