I clicked this expecting you to talk about the need to drink 30g of whey within 0.00002ms of your last rep. But you didn't, so good on you man! Nice work.

A combination of carbohydrate and protein post workout helps to boost muscle-protein synthesis even further. For this reason, it's been shown that even simple chocolate milk, with sugar, performs better as a purely post-workout supplement than a whey protein shake by itself. But as you said and I agree, the timing that a lot 'bros' freak out about is not necessary, your total protein intake over the day and maintaining a positive nitrogen balance through that is much more important.
