Money saving Qs about Dave Palumbo's cut

[cwrigh5]

I just have a few questions that I cant really seem to get an answer to after going through the first 37 pages of the big thread. Please I would really appreciate the input.

Mostly to do with the Whey protein and the type being used.

I know it says that whey isolate is best, and I use it for my post workout shake. But its expensive compared to regular protein, and to drink 2 scoops of this type of protein twice a day.....thats a good junk of change. I know using a whey isolate cuts down on carbs, which is helpful since you get about 6 grams from the peanut butter.

But what about using regular cheap whey with a couple grams of carbs (2-3) and then use olive oil for the fat? Can you drink oil? Taste doesnt really matter to me, as long as I can get the same result and it wont kill my stomach or something.

Also, whats the cheapest Fatty Fish/Meat source I can buy for the 5th meal?

thanks for the help

Sure, a whey blend will work just fine as long as you watch carbohydrates elsewhere. Try Scivation whey. 1g carb per serving & it comes in affordable 10lb bags. If you need a cheap isolate, All the Whey makes affordable 5lb tubs & banging flavors.

Thanks but what about the adding oil to the shakes?

And any suggestions on a cheap Fatty fish/beef?

Wal-Mart, Sam's Club, ect. all sell 73/27 beef real cheap.. like $2 a pound at most.. fatty fish, you could try something like salmon or make your tuna with EVOO

Sardies are cheap as hell but really gross. Tuna is cheap but not very fatty at all. There's usually a manager's special on something.
