It is my experience that protien(aminos) has a very slow G.E.T. (gastric emptying time). The time it takes to digest, absorb and then transport through the blood to be used. Knowing this theory proves protien also slows the processing of other important nutrients needed during training. Ofcourse a thick whey shake and some liquid BCAA is my first grab post training. However I am stuck on what amount of protien if any I want to consume pre training and in what form.......

I like to take protein drink within 30 mins prior to end of workout.

I heard and can tell it's absorbed much better right after or at end of workout or immediately after.

A 50 gram protein drink also makes me feel better and takes away nauseas feeling I get sometimes and I usually can go home and eat afterwords.

I'm in the 40-50 grams post workout range. Either a protein shake or mrp within 30 minutes.

Does Haycocks site mention anything about G.E.T. Could you post a link. A pre workout shake could infact be important although you may end up with a stomach full of sludge extrememly slow to digest and transport at a time most needed, stress. So manipulating the amount and form of protien and nutrients is what I want to dial in.

I usually have a scoop of whey with a banana mixed in about a half hour prior to my workout then 2 scoops loaded up with dextrose immediately after I train.
