Best value Whey Protein while on a budget

woofman81 · 05-19-2009, 12:29 AM

Need a 5 pounder of Whey but don't want to drop a lot of cash.

Was thinking Gaspari Myofusion. Any other recommendations?

Buildinfortres · 05-19-2009, 12:40 AM

You can't go wrong with XF UP Whey 10lbs at 65 bucks more or less.
If goin 5lbs go with ON 100% Whey or Champion Nutrition Whey protein

rsemans · 05-19-2009, 12:47 AM

buying a 10 lb bag would be the better deal.

woofman81 · 05-19-2009, 12:50 AM

I was trying to spend less than $50 with shipping.

I'll be using the 10% coupon as well.

Go for bulk buy

rsemans · 05-19-2009, 12:55 AM

Less than $50, you should get All The Whey. Whey isolate 2lb tubs buy 2 get 1 free, 6lbs $42.

I was thinking of that whey too. I missed out on a great deal they had on another site.

What flavor would you recommend? Actually I guess if I do the buy 2 get 1 free deal I can choose a few different flavors. You can do that right?

Damn, just realized you can't when you put a flavor in your shopping cart

Juststrong · 05-19-2009, 01:21 AM

Kaizen's 100% Whey is around $38 for 80 servings and All The Whey's Pure Isolate is the same price and also has 80servings.I dont think you can do much better then that.Price isnt a big issue with me and these are two of my favorite protein anyway.

You gotta put the buy 2 get 1 free one for $41.98 in your cart. Cinnamon Bun is suppose to be good.

Yeah I did that. I was just curious if you could get more than one flavor (ex:chocolate, cinnamon bun, etc)

If you're going to buy 5 or more pounds, and price is comparable (within a few bucks) why not buy the best tasting protein. I've made the mistake of buying a big tub to save a couple dollars and when I took the first scoop and it was nasty, I knew I was in for a long haul.

Myofusion is the same price as ON 100% whey and everyone who has tried it says it blows every other protein out of the water. It's like a McDonalds milkshake, it's that good.

Double Chocolate is like sin in a cup. I love it so much!

SportPharma Just-Whey always deserves a look...the Strawberry in particular gets tons of rave reviews on the forum.

imTKain · 05-19-2009, 06:12 AM

American Whey can be bought in 10 lb tubs for just $55 on conditionnutrition.com.

Geno51 · 05-19-2009, 06:14 AM

One of the best deals I have found was at sams club 5lb bag of EAS whey for $29 thats hard to beat price wise and EAS is a good brand. Just need a membership or know someone who has one

AresK · 05-19-2009, 06:21 AM

On a budget and looking for nothing fancy, why not get EAS Protein.

6lbs 27 bucks at costco /trader joes.

27g protein/2g sugar/3g carb/108 calories
AND you get your bcaas' GLUTAMINE!

you dont need nothin too fancy and this stuff tastes good!

Quality wise, is Myofusion pretty similar to ON 100% whey? I'm a big fan of ON and taste really isn't an issue. I've heard good things about Myofusion. With Myofusion being the same price as ON and taste not being a factor, can you go wrong with either?

Rodzilla · 05-19-2009, 06:28 AM

all the whey 5lbers then

The term "quality" can mean many things to many people. How do you measure quality?

Myofusion is manufactured at an EU Certified and CFIA Inspected GMP facility using only the highest quality ingredients. For those who know about EU certification - it is very stringent and controlled.

dirtdogg · 05-19-2009, 08:20 AM

1. Myofusion
2. XF
3. American Whey
I have only been mixing 1 scoop of protein with egg whites..........helps the powder last longer plus you get on of the best forms of protein along with it.

furyhockey · 05-19-2009, 08:26 AM

What is everybodys favorite flavor for All the Whey? I was thinking about the B2G1 Cinnamon bun but 3 tubs of it might get old quick if its just average flavor and you can never really go wrong with chocolate whey these days but does vanilla or strawberry stand out above the rest?

Good call G.K. Just-WHEY is a great whey blend that tastes tremendous and gets great reviews here.

TyOrchard · 05-19-2009, 10:34 AM

CytoSport Complete Whey... Just bought some... tastes great, mixes great, good amount of BCAA, decent amount of protein per serving.

check it out on this site...they were having a special... buy two 2.2lb tubs and get one free... can't beat 6.6lbs (135 servings) for about $43 not including shipping.

im ganna give it a try on my next order. i dont think buying over 5lbs is a good idea. i'm usually fed up of a flavor and start having trouble drinking it after just half the tub. and i dont have enough room to start keeping never ending tubs of flavor.
its a near death experiance every time i forget the 5lb tub on the kitchen counter anyways LOL.

whats the most popular flavor for the gaspari one?

That's a tough call, but I'd have to say chocolate.

But if you like strawberries at all, you owe it to yourself to get the strawberries and cream - nobody else does strawberries like Gaspari Nutrition.

TheRealtor · 05-19-2009, 12:17 PM

i usually drink it with water. i do like strawberry but it cant be to sweet :s are there sample size packages i could by to give it a try?

woofman81 · 05-20-2009, 12:00 AM

Thanks for the advice guys. Ended up going with 6lbs (buy 2, get 1 free) of All the Whey's fat free Isolate.

Went with the Cinnamon Bun flavor since I've never tried and it had pretty good reviews on here.

My next order of protein I'll give Gaspari's Myofusion a shot.

Depending on how fast you go through your 6lbs, we might have some more flavor options for you to choose from.
