As far as supplementation, you just need to get some protein in you within an hour or so after finishing your lifting. That can be in the form of food, chicken, steak, eggs, turkey, milk and soy are all good forms of food protein.
You can also use a powder, whey is the most common, though if you are sleeping right after, casein might be better. Both are useful, but they act slightly differently. You can read about it here. |
Yeah I can fall asleep after working out
I'm like a bear that way, I don't really sleep I hibernate

Certain supplements are specifically for post-workout some are for everyday use. It really depends on the product and its intended use.
Milk is good to drink post workout of you can stomach it, it's not a bad choice but you need more after a workout and before bed. Mainly bed.

I can stomach the milk as long as I keep drinking it. I can usually fall asleep within an hour or two after the gym, just really depends on my state of distractions. Last night was hot so it took me about 2-3 hours to sleep. nothing good on tv, maybe an hour.
The stuff my friend gave me is "PRO COMPLEX Augmented Protein System"
