Pre-Workout

Your pre-workout meal is going to provide you with energy and sustainability during your workout. With that being said, you want to get quality sources of protein and carbohydrates in your system. The most efficient way to do this is through protein shakes. For starters, you need instant protein so whey protein is the best choice as it is quickly absorbed. You also need complex carbohydrates for fuel. Low glycemic carbohydrates will give you sustainable energy. If you only take in simple carbohydrates, which are high in sugar, you may tire more quickly. However, a mixture of both complex and simple carbohydrates will work just fine. An example of a solid pre-workout meal is given below.

Pre Workout Meal: 20 grams of whey protein, 1/2 cup of oatmeal, 1 banana, 10 ounces of water

Post-Workout

After your workout you need a lot of quality protein that can be quickly absorbed, so again, whey protein is the best choice here. You also need to take in a heavy dose of carbohydrates. This is the one time that you need to spike your insulin levels so that you're muscles can grow. Simple carbohydrates work here. Your post workout meal is probably the most important to men's health.

Post-workout Meal: 40 grams of whey protein, 1 banana, 1 teaspoon of honey, 12 ounces of milk

These meals are the one's primarily responsible for how much muscle you gain. To reiterate, don't neglect your other meals, though; don't use this as an excuse to not consume healthy foods throughout your remaining meals each day. Nutrition and working out all go hand in hand with men's health.
