Well I wasn't aware it was an all or nothing sort of thing. You can eat both. As for the ratio, that depends on what sort of training you're talking about. If it was heavy cardio training, then presumabley you'll need some carbs to restore your glycogen stores. If it was some sort of resistance training and/or some sort of training that did a deal of tissue damage (like getting your ass whooped sparring) you'll need a great deal of protein to repair the tissue damage. Of course, you should be having a post-workout meal in any event, probably with carbs and proteins and the appropriate supplements. And if you're doing any sort of training you should be eating enough to begin with and eating well besides just eating enough. But regardless of what you're doing, if you are regularly active, I think the guidelines are what 1-1.2 g of protein per kg of bodyweight. And depending if you're bulking or cutting or trying to maintain weight, adjust your carbs accordingly. But there's all sorts of dietary guidelines people will give you, but besides eating right (i.e. staying away from processed foods and eating out too often), and eating regular meals every few hours, the composition of your diet will depend on what sort of training you are doing.
