ARIEL ORDONEZMemberI work out at 6 or 7am, so am usually done exercising around 7 or 8am. Within 30 mins of finishing the workout, I have my "hypertrophic potentiator" shake.Then, after that, I have coffee with either a) heavy cream or b) the coconut "curd" from canned coconut milk.My question: After my morning workout and PWO shake, is there an optimal time when I should have my coffee+fat drink? Or, to put it conversely: After my morning workout and PWO shake, are there times when I should AVOID drinking coffee+fat? (Just wasn't sure if there were any negative effects of having fat right after having the PWO shake.)P.S. In the morning, I like drinking my coffee with fat b/c it's easier on my stomach. And it just tastes better. And it helps suppress my appetite until lunch. 🙂

GonnaBeGiantMemberOr you could have your coffee+fat+protein powder and make an oh so delicious mocha!

Richard SchmittModeratorI wonder if that is still acceptable to do. Like almond milk with the protein. ;D

Aren't you contradicting yourself? Will a low-carb, high-fat pwo drink "kill ya"?

GonnaBeGiantMemberAren't****** I apologize.

Ah, you meant to say "fats post workout AREN'T going to kill ya". I had to think about that one for a bit.... 😀...must mean I need more coffee!Thanks all for the responses. Greatly appreciated!

Peter HuntParticipantI believe one of the meal plans actually has the ignition formula 30 mins after the hypertrophic exactly for morning training. This morning I only managed 25 mins, such is life, I don't think 5 mins is going to make much difference in the long run 🙂Edit: Actually two of the meal plans have it, both the 6am and 9am variants (and even then it only says "approx 30 mins later" and even "1 or 2 shakes"). I know the meal plans are pretty specific and don't apply to everyone, but still.

Oh yeah--I forgot the Ignition formula also contains fat. Thanks for pointing this out!For those of you who use "heavy whipping cream" with your coffee, which one do you use? All the 0 carb ones at my market seem to contain artificial sweeteners.
