2. Why do athletes consume protein shakes / powders after a workout? PROTEIN DOES NOT GIVE YOU ENERGY!!! This is why it is consumed AFTER a workout, not before! Protein is the basic building material for living things – that includes muscles. After a workout, there are tiny microscopic tears in the muscles... a meal in protein will help rebuild those muscles! Amoeba Sisters
