Can I pre-mix whey protein?

[UncleWai]

I have a sucky schedule, I have a nonstop schedule from 10:30 to 7:00pm for two days.
I am wondering if I can mix the protein shake in the morning and drink it up around 2~3pm?

The guy I work with (power lifter) does it... he just shakes the crap out of it for a couple of mintues and he's good to go.

~ps
His dietician told him to cut back... he was taking in 260+ grams of protein a day.

What are you mixing it with? Water? Juice?

Isn't whey protein like...well...nvm

Yes it will be fine for a couple of hours. I usually mix mine with skim milk

No problem for a few hours. If its refrigerated it will last maybe 4-7 days.

I tried to premix a weeks worth in grape juice...didn't spoil but got thick and sort of slimey, extremely disgusting!

Take the powder in a jug, and add water when your ready to drink it..

That's what I would do.

If nothing else a small ziploc with pre-measured amounts (especially if you're using more than just protein powder).

Toss that in a shaker cup & you're good to go.
