I've never tried Muscle Milk from tha tub, but I did try tha RTD once or twice. I found it a bit bitter. I was surprised with everyone saying it tastes so good... Maybe it had to do with tha vitamin & mineral content they add to those.

The Banana RTD is damned good. The rest, I agree, there is a funky ass aftertaste. Only powder of theirs I tried was the Vanilla. Ultrapeptide is better, so is Substance Vanilla Bean.

What is a good post-workout chocolate protein shake? I am currently taking Sustain with milk before bed. I use to be able to drink Optimum's Whey Protein, but for some reason my stomach cannot handle it at all. Someone said it could be from the Aminogen in it? I have no idea though. I have tried a few different ones. Syntrax Nectar Lemonade- It is ok, but it leaves a battery acid taste in my mouth. Substance Grape- I cannot even drink it. I have decided against the fruit flavors, and will just go back to good old chocolate. Any suggestions?

I was going to say Substance, but Ness beat me to it! Other excellent chocolates include Ultrapeptide chocolate if you want a casein blend and Dymatize if you want a WPC.

Yeah MM tastes great, but what your tasting aint the protein. Its got like 20 g of fat in it, and it better taste like a milkshake with that. I dont mind that part at all, but you are actually not getting much protein at all for your money and thats why i dont get MM anymore. Evopro is a good choice though.

Huh? You wanted more info on Sustain? What do you want to know?

As I've said in the past and will say again, when you add a SUBSTANTIAL amount of Fat and Carbohydrates to a product, it ceases to be a true protein powder and enters the realm of MRP. It is FAR easier to flavor a product like Muscle Milk than a product that is both very low carb and very low fat. Not saying MM is a bad product, just that it is not "ideal" either as a protein powder.

It doesnt leave that nasty after taste you get with must shakes and it isnt as thick as the other ones. Also it doesent really have a taste if you know what i mean it kind of tastes like when you make chocolate milk using white milk and only putting a little chocolate syrup in.. It is defaintly the best drink to just chug down.

Nectar Strawberry, Nectar Cherry, Nectar Apple.

About 6 scoops a day for 2 months and it's helped me lose weight and gain even more muscle.

I do so much cardio that an average person would lose all of their muscle, but combined with a lot of nectar I managed to gain some.

6 scoops a day is expensive to maintain but it's so freaking good. It's the only thing I can take in the morning because I'm not a breakfast person.

It's easy to flavor a weight gainer, just like it is with Musclemilk. Takes talent to flavor lowcarb/lowfat/high quality.

hey I really wish DS would pay for a clinical trial of AcTivate, Darryn S. Willoughby form Baylor is pretty good. he did the study for gaspari too. im really interested exactly how effective 3,4 divanil is in not only binding with sex hormone but also blocking DHT.i know trials are expensive, 40k for novedex ouch, but it would really be interesting.

I have tried muscle milk, myoplex and gnc protein, and 100% percent whey gold standard choclate protein but with out a doubt gold standard is amazing. It doesnt leave that nasty after taste you get with must shakes and it isnt as thick as the other ones. Also it doesent really have a taste if you know what i mean it kind of tastes like when you make chocolate milk using white milk and only putting a little chocolate syrup in.. It is defaintly the best drink to just chug down.

i completely agree with this. 100%

man, the cafe mocha i dont know if your using milk but if in water it isnt up to par, the buttered toffee, if put into water/oatmeal is very bland if only using one scoop, never tried their chocolate mint, however their normal chocolate is awesome and blows 100% ON outa the water..

It's a higher quality because its pure WPI, which is absorbed much quicker which means that it can be to your muscles quicker. Also, it is a high quality protein that passed lab tests by Mike McCandless.

As for WPI, Isopure chocolate tasted good but got old quick, vanilla was horrible. Substance grape and watermellon tasted great but the mixability was poor. So I gave Nectar a shot, and I thought it tasted great. Fuzzy Navel is my favorite...it never gets old.

Extreme milk chocolate is ok, as is the other extreme flavor, French Creme Vanilla. Their best flavor is easily the Chocolate Mint.

Despite Uhockey giving no love to BSN and 4Everfit, his list is pretty much on the money. Scitec also has some great flavors, particularly if you don't mind chunks in your shake...

That was my point. You've likely tasted very little. GNC's Mega Whey tastes on the order of a couple thousand times better than ON Double Chocolate...if all you've tasted is say ON Strawberry and ON Double Chocolate, of course Double Chocolate would be better as the ON Strawberry is right next door to nuclear waste. I understand your age and budget probably preclude protein flavor-hopping, but it is hard to attach much worth to your post when you have such a narrow sampling of the various offerings out there...

Agreed.



IMO, anything with more than 5g of fat/serving and 5g (non-fiber)carbs/serving becomes an MRP style product, NOT a protein powder.

Smartest thing I've seen you say in a while (and cool avatar pic:)). I never really thought about it that way, but if a product has say 22g Protein, 5g of Fat it get over 1/3 of it cals from Fat. My MRP has a lower ratio than and fairly low carb...

The best protein ever is Beverly (Muscle Provider, Ultra Size, and Mass). I've tried them ALL, my gains have suffered over my lack of adequate protein. No longer, this stuff is the unreal, I even like the vanilla. Additionally, BB.com will be carrying Beverly soon.

Just bought some Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey that everyone's been talking about.

Wow. My favorite Protein I've ever taken. Mixes the easist, goes down the easiest, doesn't bother my stomach, low carbs, no fat, very clean, and even on top of it all, tastes the best I've had. It beats Muscle Milk in every catagory, expecially price. Cheaper, get more, tastes better, doesn't bother stomach, and mixes easier. I'm done with Muscle Milk, ON Whey from now on.

I got Banana.

I'm still a beginner ... after some research and reading this board I am DEFINITELY gonna be trying Optimum 100% Whey. Everyone seems to think its a better quality protein, so f*ck it - I'll give it a try!

So far though, I have to agree that the best tasting is CytoSport's Muscle Milk. I've had "Dulce De Leche" and "Chocolate Caramel Pecan." They're both INSANELY delicioso and mix easy!

Muscle Milk and Syntha 6 are more MRP than true protein powder.

Once again, it's EASY to flavor something with ample fats, carbs, and protein. It's harder with a lowcarb/lowfat formula.


+1 other wise i'd say melted ice cream is damn good!

if you hold you mouse over retro's rep it says "he is the lowest scum on the boards!"

Not that I've tasted all that many. But the ON that I've had is mediocre in taste. (Double Choc., Vanilla, C&C -blech!, Extreme Milk Choc.)

I'm a huge fan of Dymatize Elite. I've only had five of the flavors available, but all have been very good. Personal favs are Chocolate Mint, Cafe Mocha, and Butter Cream Toffee. I got a 10lb'er of the Toffee. Best I've had yet.

Maybe once this whole keto thing blows over (6 weeks and 5 days from now) I will be getting some muscle milk and jumping on the Cytosport bandwagon.

Dynamatize Elite.....

and if you take into account cost and quality there isnt really a protein that close. Dont be a moron and say you have to have 100% Isolate....


Its like 4% more effective than Dynamatizes mix and much more expensive.

Dynamatize should be the favorite of this board I have no idea why ON still is....I guess its what they call "brand inertia"/.

I agree that Dymatize Elite is vastly superior to ON, but disagree with your assessment of cost/quality.

A product like GF-Pro or Sustain is MUCH higher quality than Dymatize and what you pay for is what you get.

For some people, unfortunately, isolate is VERY necessary due to lactose intolerance. Additionally, the literature on the benefits of casein are very convincing.

I will concede that Dymatize Elite conquers the field for fine tasting WPC, but not that it's the "best" or that it is the best quality for price.

zaxx19
02-26-2007, 01:28 PM
So.....

What would you say a superior product would be at 31 cents a serving or under would be?

If there is one....well it is going to be a fairly neglible difference.

Dynamatize is an excellent choice and clearly superior to ON which for some reason continues to get trumpeted on this site as the be all and end all of affordable WPC/.


I actually like Isolates the best results ive ever had was from Natures best Isopure 50 g clear bottles back in the day......I was friends with a gym manager and because I bought all kinds of stuff there and threw him like 6 memberships via referral he agreed to sell me them for luck a buck.

They were amazing. Unfortunately 7-8 dollars a day for protein supplementation isnt all that attractive to me compared to 2 for Dynamatize and 1% milk.

Finally received XF's Ultra Peptide chocolate and it's awesome. I just tried mixing a couple scoops with a little bit of water in a bowl to make a pudding and it was really really tasty. I feel like having more. Best chocolate protein I've had by far. GF-Pro comes in second as far as chocolate is concerned. I'm an "old school" protein flavour consumer.

Syntrax Essence (vanilla), GF-Pro (vanilla and chocolate) all get my vote, too.

Not that this thread is particularly on track (and I dissent on the Syntha-6 being an MRP), but I really get a kick out of the argument put forth with regard to ease of flavoring, as I don't see it having a connection at all to what the final taste is...perhaps the creation of the "best-tasting most difficult to flavor" protein? :D

Alright been reading through this thread but had to ask a question anyways.

I am already ordering DS Sustain for pre-bed and SAN Infusion for an MRP. I have BSN Sytha-6 in the cart but can't decide if I should keep it?

I have been using On 100% Whey Gold Standard for a couple years now as my post-workout protein and my current tub is running low, so I was thinking of trying something new as many of you say there are alot better products out there now.
I am stuck between GF-pro, Substance WPI, Ultra Peptide, and Dymatize Elite as a replacement for a good post-workout protein.
Which would you recommend and what flavor would you recomend? Traditionally I'm a chocolate kinda guy but I haven't really tried many other protein flavors. I tried MuscleMilk cookiesN'cream and though I was going to vomit it was so sweet.

I take Purple Wraath pre/during workout if that makes a difference in what you recommend.


Thanks!
