Protein Powder?

Question

Someone told me that if you take protein powder after a workout it'll turn into fat as opposed to taking it before a workout where you would gain muscle. Is that true? can you really get fatter?

Answer 1

That's nonsense. You will get fat if you drink those protein shakes and don't work out at all. Whether you take it before or after a workout doesnt matter.

Answer 2
