Last week I wrote about having a post-workout shake to gain muscle mass. But, what if you are trying to lose body fat? Should you have the same shake?
No, you will want to have a shake that contains minimal to zero carbohydrates and is high in protein. Also according to Cassandra Forsythe's interview on "Fat Loss Pros", it is also beneficial to wait until 30 minutes after you have finished your workout to have your shake. This is because you will allow your body to burn some extra fat post-exercise. You see as soon as you ingest your shake, or any food for that matter, your body will begin the rebuilding process and stop burning fat.
To make a simple fat loss shake just mix 1 scoop of whey protein with 1 cup of fat-free milk or water.
Have a great day and train effectively,
Josh
