Hey all, just a quick question here.

I typically drink whey protein (mixed with water) twice a day: once right when I wake up and then again with my afternoon snack. I have been doing this since I started the program two weeks ago, but I was just curious as to whether or not I really need this much protein? For example, should I just not drink any whey protein on cardio days (plyo, kenpo, etc), or should I keep my protein intake consistent every day?

Thanks for any advice.

are you not tracking your food? I use whey once or twice qa day depending on the meals ive laid out for myself, it you need the extra protein to get you to 50-30-20 or 40-40-20, then do it twice a day, if not once a day is fine.

No, I am tracking everything and it's all within the levels it should be. I just didn't know if that was too much "artificial" protein or not. But if it doesn't matter, then I will just keep doin' what I'm doin'!

im no expert for sure, but if its helping you hit your target, i wouldnt worry about it too much:)

Whey protein is artificial? I guess I really don't know much about it, but I've always assumed whey protein has just as much value as any other protein source. If I'm wrong I would someone please enlighten me?

i wanna say he meant "artificial" as in, not in regular food (like chicken or eggs), but in powder form.
