Sport how long?

[Kevin2489]

What is the best type of food to eat after a workout (mostly cardio), and how long should I wait to eat after a workout?

 

[abear]

you can use the same protocols for cardio as for training, just maybe not as much though. have the meal as soon as you can. no need to wait

a nice protein shake immediately after, IMO

High protein meal!

Don't you think waiting a little longer to eat after Cardio would improve fat loss?

I'd drink a whey protein shake immediatly following your weight training routine and also add a fast acting carb to the shake such as dextrose, to replenish glycogen stores in the muscles.

You don't need to consume a shake following cardio. I'd go with either a pro/fat or pro/carb whole food meal.
