it depends on the type of protein, i forget the technical names, but its basically slow and fast absorbing. fast absorbing is best taken 1-2 hours before or within half an hour after exercise. and slow absorbing is best taken 2-3 hours before sleep. as far as carbs go, you want enough that you have energy to exercise and function, but less than normal, to force your body to use stored energy (fat)

Does not matter. Apparently there is some mythology about that the timing makes a difference, but it is not true.
