Then it is kids to school , errands etc and then I work out usually 2-3hrs after the shake. Right before the workout I pound 10gm's BCAA with 1 scoop of waxy maize (37gm's carbs) in water. Workout for about an hour then pound another 10 gm's of BCAA's and 5gm's creatine along with another scoop of waxy maize. Then it is shower up and food prep and usually have a meal about 1-1 1/2 hours post workout with 8oz of meat, more carbs (white rice) and veggies.
I don't now if this is ok or optimal, and was just wondering what you think. I'm 45 y/o 5'6" and about 185lbs. Thanks for any input.
