protein shakes

[asto5]

probably not the best topic to put this one in...

made myself a protein shake the other nite for the morning after (to save time). however i later read that it should be comsumed within 20 mins. is that the same for all protein shakes or just this one in particular. and why does it have to comsumed so quickly afterwards?!

cheers in advance!

I made a protein shake once and although I knew the advice was to drink it straight away, I left it a couple of hours.
When I came back to it it was virtually solid, and undrinkable.

right after a work out your muscles are most acceptable to growth.So bodybuilders consume protein shakes usualy within 20 mins of a work out.
