Milk is one of those very well balanced foods as far as Carbs/Protein/Fat go.
I do Crossfit in addition to strength training and ALWAYS drink 12-16oz of whole milk after every workout. I started doing this after reading Read Starting Strength by Rippetoe and Kilgore. If you are not lactose intolerant it’s good nutrition. Much better than overprice synthesized crap.
My wife and boys drink tons of milk. My wife is much leaner and muscular than she was before increasing her milk intake post work out and my two boys (6 and 8) are far more fit than their friends on juice boxes and soda. All they drink is water, milk and fruit/veg smoothies. Soda are for “special occasions” only and very rare. Of course, we keep them VERY active as well.
Just my experience...
