I found magnum quattro to be by far the the best protein power for building muscle, it has four diffrent proteins and 60g of protein...with little fat.

What is the Purpose of Protein Powder? I just started working out so im a beginner and whenever i take whey protein (the walmart ****) all it really does it make me feel like a fatass, i gain weight using that stuff which is the exact opposite of what im trying to do, slim down / gain muscle, everytime i take protein powder i just feel big as in fat big, not in a positive way
My goal is to shed weight and gain muscle at the same time, but everytime i take protein powder it seriously makes me fatter, regarldess of if its helping me gain muscle or not

i visited a local supp store over the weekend. there was a bsn rep there and during her spill she really bashed ON on quality and quantity. does anyone know if there is any truth to this? She said that the protein content of pro complex is about 1/3 of what they claim????

Not knowing the answer either way, hearing that from a BSN rep, of all people, would have made me laugh, and laugh...and laugh. Then I would remind her how overpriced and mediocre her products are.

Listen up, everybody, "Protien, is protien." Back then, do you think people had magazines where they could,{Arnold could ask} a pro. I didn't think so, whey protien is just a bit faster than casein protien, a more slower digesting version of protien. However, if you want quality, check out the types of protien the company makes. Is there variety, and if so, how about how it's made and what's added to it. Hydro,Micronized, i'm pretty sure they have micro, and others with makes them are eas, and musclemilk makes micellar, and gold standard makes hydro.

Don't all muscletech products i heard tha nano vapor tastes like ****, but gets the job done. Maybe it's not about taste after all. But personally, stay away from gakic powder, or pills.

What protien taste good mixed with beer? Just kidding, probolic-sr(mhp) isn't so bad if you just mix it with a spoon. But my friend gave me a couple scoops of up your mass from mhp, and damn, does it taste so darn good.

Protein isn't jus protein!!! Its needs 2 be bio-available! If protein was jus protein id eat protein bars with useless gelatin proteins or drink soy!!! & whey is the most readily absorbed source & delivers amino acids much faster (not "a bit") then Casein! Seems 2 me like u have a LOT 2 learn about supplements & the supplement industry!

The purpose of protein powder is 2 increase ur protein intake in a fast simple way! Its best used pre & post workout! The main reason ur feelin that way is the low quality of ur protein, it makes u feel bloated! & if ur gainin fat its def not ur supplement u have 2 check & tweak ur diet! Don't always b fooled by the scale bcuz muscle weighs more than fat, but if ur certain its fat its ur diet!

Theres no REAL difference between different whey products (except that some are blends, or just concentrate, or isolate, etc etc but this has very little if any effect on anabolism)
When it comes down to it, whey is just whey and you pick the best deal with the highest amount of protein per serving (and also the best tasting!)
I personally think vitaminshoppes body tech pro 24 whey is creamy and good tasting.
Lean Dessert by BSN was by-far the BEST tasting protein I've had, but its rather expensive.
Right now I'm using scivation whey- flavor isnt the best but its a good deal if you know where to get it.

Is Universal Torrent superior to regular whey products (like ON 100%) for post-workout? I currently use Nitro-Tech Hardcore, but would like to know if Torrent is any better.

I saw someone say that Dymatize Elite is cheaper than ON? From what I see a 5lb tub of Dymatize Elite is $72.29 and a 5lb of 100% ON is $41.99.
