Yeah Ryker gave some good advice here. Definately try to bring it with you if possible. Without nutrient intervention, the metabolic window begins to close within 45mins following exercise. So if you waiting 30mins with probably another 30mins before those nutrients are digested, your missing the potential anabolic effects of the hormone insulin which mucle cells are extremely sensitive to after a workout. This is why ryker is saying to at least take in some simple carbs before going home.

Heres my solution:
Take your shaker and put 1/4 of water in it, then throw it in the freezer overnight.
In the morning when your getting ready to leave, throw a scoop of protein in the shaker, along with some water (or water in it-post workout). Either way,, it will be cold and ready to consume after working out. Nothing is worse than a warm shake! ICK.

I just put the powder in the shaker and take it with me. When i'm done with my routine, i just go to the drinking fountain and filler up, then chug away on the drive home.

The isolate/concentrate blend from allthewhey.com. Chocolate is the only flavor I can stomach. The shit mixes great though. Better than any other protein i've tried.
is it good bro, cause in about a month my can will be empty. I say this so i can give allthewhey a shot. Its good to try different brands. So far Pro-Rated and Solid Whey Vanilla taste good.:agree:

Slash the purpose of weight gainer is to gain weight, right?
Well if your missing the crucial minutes right after your workout then its almost a waste.
My post workout before I leave the gym and during cool down is 3 scoops of pure isolate with sometype of juice (grape or craneberry a full 23oz) Then as soon as I get home its a bowl of oatmeal or health ceral and milk
