[Sthirteenturbo]

Wow, i just did a little research on my own and i came across reviews for this product.. http://www.thesupplementrating.com/listing.php?id=985 talks about the product from their own personal experiences and gains..

I posted the ingredients and I was wondering if anyone here has tried this new product and how it works for them.. I was told this is night and day from the old similar GNC brand/products. Told it was the best product out there for what it does.. anyone have any insight into this???

What is Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60??
Looking for a protein that will help AMPlify your game? When it comes to enhancing your strength, size and stamina, nothing compliments your training regimen like Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60?! It is GNC's top protein formula with a base of whey and leucine - proven in clinical studies to give you a 30% increase in strength, increased muscle size, and a 100% improvement in exercise efficiency.* That's better fuel for a stronger body - premium protein for ADVANCED MUSCLE PERFORMANCE.*


The Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60? Evolution
How is this protein AMPlified? GNC's scientists worked with leading exercise and sports nutrition experts and went beyond the extreme to develop this distinct product...


Highly Effective Whey-Leucine Base - The impressive 60 grams of protein is made entirely from the highest quality, fast-absorbing forms of whey protein - isolates and hydrolysates. With 7.7 grams of leucine, this creates an ideal environment for muscle protein synthesis. This potent blend upregulates multiple Genetic Signaling Pathways (GSP) to enhance anabolism and muscle performance.* In fact, the whey and leucine blend in Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60? has been shown to increase muscle strength and stamina with half the sets.*


Micronized Amino Acids - Using MicroSorb? Amino Technology, the amino acids added to this formula are pulverized, or "micronized" from large molecules into smaller particles to facilitate faster absorption. Why is that important? Better absorption of amino acids means better muscle fuel. These key amino acids support muscle building and recovery.*


Amino Acceleration System - This digestive enzyme blend is designed to accelerate the availability and absorption of amino acids to be efficiently used by the muscles.


More Key Aminos - In addition to a whopping 7.7 grams of leucine - this formula is loaded with an array of aminos necessary for your muscles. This complex blend of amino acids delivers 3.6 grams of arginine, which is involved in creatine synthesis, and over 10 grams of glutamine providing anabolic effects. The amino acid L-carnitine is included to help transform fatty acids into energy for muscles and the body's energy production system.*

Im trying to get some feedback on it also. Im trying to get off my muscletech products. I read the label and it says to take it before and after workout so i'm wondering if I should be taking a regular whey for the am? and a slow digesting for the night? Somebody must have tried it! Feedback Plz!

[YanksKing]

Overall the product is a good and has a good product profile, but has a few down sides such as price and servings being the big points...To me $48 for 17 servings is insane and not worth it at all... If you buy it I would use specifically postWO, but that's my opinion... Personally I don't take in 60 grams of protein after a workout, rather right around 30-45g depending on what i'm doing (bulk/ cut) so if you only used 2 scoops that would add to the servings... Overall, good product, but not worth it IMO, for the price and servings, you can get other proteins that are just as good, if not better, with 4x the amount of servings and cheaper still... but that's my 2 cents

[SedoneStars]

i just got a message about advertising BB.com competitors

but as i posted before, i'm all about wheybolic...esp the new one

it's fantastic...i've built strength while staying lean, and have dropped a good bit of body fat

wheybolic is the only post w/o protein i';ll use...i use it as an MRP too...i use kefir, skim milk, wheybolic (the amount of scoops i use depends on which kanteen i use), and sometimes hemp protein to give me extra fiber and all that other good stuff hemp provides

[B1GinNY82307]

I interested in seeing why ppl are even raving about this overpriced protein?

[usmarinedelta]

I think it's because almost every damn gnc you walk into they recommend it and hype you into it making people thinking it's all good.

says the individual that is using MT products

Have you actually reviewed these forums? Tons of REPUTABLE people support appropriate supps

[Kobraa84]

What im seeing on these forums is people buying the cheapest possible supplements over the supplements that work the best. I want what works best!

[Kobraa84]

Tuesday I make the switch off of Muscletech.. I'll let ya know how that goes..

again, I will say that the ppl that are INFORMED and that you SHOULD be listening to or taking advice from are NOT buying the cheap stuff.

And I seriously hope that you do not think that MT stuff is worth the price they charge...

[mattc908]

Just because it has the GNC or MT label doesn't mean its a bad product, sure mostly all there products are crap but once and a while you find a decent one.

While I can sort-of agree with this.. (naNO9x, Aplodan, Anator)...MOST of MT products are garbage..I'll say 90% of their products...

And my main issue with this thread and the reason it was posted...well simply b/c...it's protein...

[Moody72]

I went into my local GNC and picked up a bag of the new AMP wheybolic 60 this week. It's only been used for one workout so I am hoping here in a few weeks that I will see a difference. I don't see why so many people give GNC products a bad name. I have used GNC's 100% Whey for months now and it is no different than ON's 100% Whey IMO

GNC's Protein is outsourced to ON, ON makes all of GNC's proteins so thats probably why you don't see a difference. .

thanks for the info man

[Sthirteenturbo]

is 7.7g of Leucine a lot? and how does it compare to other peoples favorite protein supp...

[SedoneStars]

just compare the blend with other proteins

it's way better

you get 64 gm of aminos per 60 gm of protein...

you get 7.7 gm of leucine per serving...and in Mt leukic you get 7.3...how much is MT leukic again???

hmm ive been using it for a week and ive noticed using the AMP WE60 only post workout and using the regular 100% whey 2 times a day does in fact keep my muscles more toned and retains a lot of its size..

Same wondering here, The protein is clearly overpriced, I wouldn't even remotely consider buying this.

Ya the guy in GNC told me the same thing. I asked if the ON is any good and he said ON makes the Amplified Wheybolic and it is just re-packaged under their name.

GNC does get a bad rep, but all in all their products are decent and readily available.

[ash1213ley]

Ok soo.. um im a girl.. first off.. and i bought WE60.. guy in GNC also recommened i buy dren. Now is this for real gonna be ok? I am wanting to slim down.. Are there any stipulations on what i should or shouldnt eat to avoid "gaining" weight?

This....so pretty much saying GNC's Protein is bad, is saying ON protein is also bad.
Someone earlier on the thread said the protein pas overpried? 1 lbs bag = 19.99 (21 scoops of 20 grams) 3lbs bag = 37.99 (51 scoops of 20 grams)

I like there Wheybolic 60 for a couple of "inteligent" reasons :

1. Very lean, 280 calories for 60 grams...But I only use 1 scoop = 90 calories, into some milk which bumbs the proteine to around 30 grams which is a perfect whey/casein mix.

2. L-Carnitine, I like that ingredient for the leaning out effect. Helps break down the long chains of fatty acid, transports it to the mitochoondria, simply means you burn more fat as energy.

3. High dose of Leucine, when in high enough quantity, it can increase growth hormonoe production during sleep.

4. Arginine, I think everyone knows why thats good.

[240sxdriver85]

I've tried the wheybolic. I'm not sure if it's the same as the bags because I bought a bottle of it. (I had something to do after the gym so I went into GNC to pick up a post workout protein). The one I tried was a fruit flavor, like arctic punch or something. Anyhow, it felt pretty good at first but after about an hour I noticed that I became queasy and irritable. But it may just be me. I tried the NO from amp also and it made me vomit... I just don't respond to GNC products well. And yes GNC employees do push you into buying amp products. They wouldn't even tell me about anything else or any other options. They just said that all the others were inferior and that their line is cheaper. I should have went with my gut and paid more attention to the ingredient list than the sales rep.

ON does make GNC protein, but they make it to GNC's specifications. If you comare ON's 100% Whey to GNC's 100% Whey you will notice the amino acid content is higher in it; this also goes for every GNC protein.

Now with my personal experience using AMP Wheybolic Extreme 60, this is by far my favorite protein. I usually workout hard for about 2-2 1/2 hours & take this postWO & I'm ready to hit the weights within 2-3 minutes. I've also done it pre-WO & post & saw great energy & recovery. I also like the fact that it has the 10 grams of glutamine, taste & mixability of it. & for everything thats in there, it would cost over $100.

[andyROX]

Ok guys, the main difference here between the wheybolic extreme and ON whey is that the new GNC extreme contains only isolates and hydrolysates. ON contains isolates and concentrated whey, which is basically extra filler protein. The isolates is purely protein in its highest quality and the hydrolysates are even higher in quality. So basically you are paying for extremely high quality protein which also includes 7.7g of leucine. Plus the packaging lists 17 servings at 3 scoops per serving, so there are 51 scoops.

dude definitly go off muscle tech dude they suck. I was on Nano Vapor, and Cell Tech and it did nothing for me but bloat the **** out of me, you should take No Shotgun for the best pump, and Size on for the best creatine. I was on Xplode, Vapor, and Superpump, and by the far without a doubt No shotgun is the best.

[cali311soca]

I got into an argument with the chick at GNC about the grams of protein per serving. She tried telling me that Wheybolic Extreme 60 had more protein per serving cause it had 60 grams of protein in it. Well, I showed her it was 60 grams per serving (3 scoops per serving) and my 2 scoop 40 gram protein was giving me just as much.

[mrg6289]

the guy at the GNC store highly recommended this wheybolic because of the protein isolates. After you workout these protein isolates are the best way to rush protein to your muscles. Other supplements take a while to get absorbed into your system but these protein isolates get absorbed within minutes, extremely important right after workouts.

You can also just take 2 scoops of this to make it last longer. 60 grams of protein in the 3 scoops is kind of overkill if you ask me.
