That's the way I understand it too.

Post cardio, whey shake probably not such a good idea because your metabolic rate isn't going to stay high after cardio like it will after lifting. Unless, of course, you do your cardio after you lift (which is the correct order!), at which point, of course, it will because of the lifting.

I do HIIT cardio, so the theory is that the metabolic rate stays elevated for an extended period after the workout, so I just use whey & water  |
