Hi. i'm going through cutting cycle after 3 month of bulking. my diet is straight and only thing that i cut from my diet is some carbs and fats. i left protein ammount the same. since i cutting i starded doing cardio 4 times a week. 3 times after 1 hour weight lifting and once every sunday first thing in the morning. so my question is what would be the best option to take whey protein shake to prevent muscle catabolizm?
1. 50gr of whey 1st thing in the morning-----1hr workout---30 min cardio(60-70 mhr)----50gr whey prot.---pwo meal.
2. 25gr of whey 1st thing in the morning-----1hr workout---25gr of prot---30 min cardio(60-70 mhr)----pwo meal.
3. 50gr of whey 1st thing in the morning-----1hr workout---50gr of prot---30 min cardio(60-70 mhr)----pwo meal.

what do you think, wich option will prevent the muscle from catabolic state during cardio?
