a lot of us that train balls out, have issues hitting that shake or meal immediately post training anyway. so optimizing that window without any stomach discomfort is key.

another one i used in the past without the pre and intra: (not for the weak at heart but does work) it consists of
1/2 gal skim milk
100g whey protein
2 bananas
2 tbl spoon pb

you blend that puppy up and start consuming it immediately post workout. it is delicious and will pack on some serious weight. kind of a pain in the ass to deal with but if you pre make it and take it with you it's not that big of a hassel. i drank mine on the way home
I kind of do same thing in my Nutribullet Ninja, I blend the following and drink immediately following training...

1c dry oats
2 scoops Whey Isolate (50g protein)
3/4c egg whites
1c almond milk
1tbsp olive oil OR 2tbsp peanut butter
5g Glutamine

Blend in Nutribullet and whala!!!

Or I have also been using Universal Nutrition Real Gains which yields 53g protein, 84g complex carbs, not sure of fat but low. Blend with almond milk in Nutribullet for 10 seconds and it's very creamy and the chocolate is the bomb!!!

Then meal after that is...

2 whole eggs w/1c egg whites
2 servings of steel cut oats with dried cranberries and Stevia, along with all my vitamins and insulin secretague with both my high carb meals.
