No I'd go 4:1 carbs/protein as recommended by Andersons.
(In reality I don't obsess over the exact amount, it depends what's available at home or over the nearest counter. It's just a guideline).

The 2:1 ratio with slightly higher amounts of carb/protein per Kg of bodyweight is one recommended for endurance sports.

That's just a post-training snack btw, not a meal. I'd also have a meal later. Though I rarely/never count what goes in that, regards carbs/protein. I just try to eat lots of veg.

Ah right - so you're not multiplying the carb requirement calculation by hours right PeteJH? Thanks for clarifying

(I knew this pizza advice couldn't last)
