How is it possible that your diet is wildly deficient?Originally Posted by 5am6oody72

As others have said though - protein is OD for the average person. Unless your diet is deficient then you don't need to take a protein supplement. You need less than you think and taking it after a workout has no benefit over eating normally through the day - replacing carbs and electrolytes is a different issue though.
My diet is wildly deficient at the moment though
Seriously though, I started drinking protein shakes after serious workouts back in january for the first time and it made a HUGE difference in how my muscles were able to recover.
