Hey buddy. No, there’s no contradiction here. Whey does stimulate an increase in insulin and it also has a higher thermic effect than other proteins i.e. it “costs” more to digest, hence you burn more calories. Those 2 statements are not contradictory.
Hope that clarifies.

I’m assuming you would only be taking 1 dose per day? Yes, with the pre-workout would be an excellent time to take it. Don’t take extra caffeine, though. The 200mg or more that you take with the pre-workout is all you need.

There are too many variables to give it a number. Depends on how long the trainee worked out, the intensity level, full-body or split workout, age. The point is that when a cardio session is over and the heart rate slows, that’s the calorie burning over. Because there is a repair process from weight training that usually takes about 48 hrs, your metabolism will be raised as the recovery costs energy.

You`ve stated before that whey protein causes an insulin release but now you recommend it to boost metabolism? Please clarify!

It is readily available over the counter as a non-drowsy decongestant, but is also a stimulant and it’s a banned substance for competitive athletes.

When would be the best time to take the EC combo? With my homemade pre workout drink or with post workout whey protein shake?

Could you quantify this statement:

Because you’ve been tearing up muscle fibers, a lot of repair work needs done in the body. This costs energy/calories. 2 sets or so to failure on each body part will take around 36-48hrs to repair. So you have an elevated metabolic rate for about 2 days from weight training. You don’t get that from cardio.

How many extra calories does it burn?
