When you are making a protein shake. Can I just throw the oats in the shaker bottle. Shake it up and drink it down. Or do I need to put it in a blender and have it diced to small pieces. Does it really matter?

i prefer mixing the oats and protein in a blender or using a spoon to mix the stuff together in a bowl
yeah when i mix it in a shaker the oats sink to the bottom and its nasty

I just throw the oats in the shake and slam it...after i finish it i fill it back up with water so i can get the leftover oats that got clumped at the bottom

Thats the answer I was looking for. Thanks
You don't have to have the oats in the shake. Sometimes I chew on them before hand and wash it all down with the protein. They have a somewhat nutty flavor.

Quaker Oats, poured straight into a bowl.
Choc Whey with 3/4 shaker of skimmed/semi skimmed milk.
Pour over the oats and YUM! Basic, simple and quick...

that is how i do it. drinking it like a man down the hatch. a shake is not to be enjoyed it is for growth. if you want something that tastes good eat a blizzard from DQ.. LOL it is the offseason maybe i will put my shake in a blizzard that would be good.

or if im in a hurry i put the dry protein powder in my mouth take a swig of water and good to go
then just takes me a few secs to mix the oats in a bowl and i eat that in about a minute
when you have the oats in a shaker, just swirl the oats around and drink while they are still spinning...you will be able to get most of it down that way

I don't think you can go wrong with either method bro. I've done both and the the clean up is easier without using the blender. As stated above, extra water washes down the extra oats from the bottom. Good luck, peace.

Haha... Awesome.
I'm a big proponent of the Magic Bullet. Grab anything that isn't nailed down, throw it in that bitch and give it a whirl. The Bullet will pulverize anything into an easily drinkable pulp. Peace, G

This is true...we've talked about this months ago...the Bullet is the way to go! I only wish it came with bigger containers and more lids. I premix my days shakes and just throw the lid on the container and go from there.
