@jreily88 As a general rule, try and eat 30-50 grams of protein within 60 minutes of exercise. Also, try and eat a form of simple carbohydrates within 90 minutes, throughout the rest of the day complex carbohydrates are the way to go.

I also heard that if you eat food too soon, like less than 30 minutes after a workout, then you shut down those growth hormones. However, if you wait longer than 1 hour, then your body starts producing cortisol and goes into a catabolic state. I'm not making this up. I got it from another doctor.
