Would it make any sense to drink your protein during a workout???...When I go to the gym I take a thing of water with me...what if I were too add the protein powder to it and drink it during my workout??? Would it do anything different? Would it be worth it?
 
I don't think that will be benefical. You should eat enough carbs before you workout for your energy and drink plenty of water to stay hydrated. Maybe someone has more technical reasoning.
 
i guess you learnt your lesson.., speed kills :D

Yeah i believe food (liquid food in this case) consumption during a workout is a bad idea. I use to powerlift with my uncle when i was a teenage and if i had anything to eat within a hour of deadlifts or squats i would feel like puking the whole time. Safe to say i never done it very many times lol
 
Some recommend taking it during your workout if you are wokring for a fairly long time, supposed to keep it available for the muscles you worked first, they say about 20 minutes in to take about half a dose so there is some in your system.

I personally stick with water and maybe some glutamine during though.
 
right, some ppl do recommend pre, during and post workout nutrition. personally i dont see the need for it and probably couldnt stomach it either. :(
