I just started using PROGENEX regularly a few months before the Games this year, and can't live without it now.
I take it approximately 17 minutes following a workout, regardless of the "kind" of workout (strength vs. endurance).
Originally, I just went by recommendations from other coaches/athletes, but now am totally sold on the stuff. Can't even stomach other brands any more. If I"m going to train as hard as I do, eat as clean as I do, and try to recover as consistently as I do, WHY the hell would I use anything but the best post-recovery whey that is out there?
Typical Training Week: Three days on/one off (strength + WOD + endurance daily)
Nutrition: Approximately 97-98% Paleo (what "most" people would consider "Paleo," ie, allowing jerky, occasional dried fruit)
