Is buying whey protein (gnc brand) worth the money. Just as wheybolic extreme 60

[Power_Strike92]

Well I'm replacing that gnc stuff tomorrow with Six Star whey, even though some people don't like it I find good gains on it.

Six Star is the way to go.. its super cheap and i think it taste decent.

That's even worse imo. I'd go with GNC stuff over Six Star any day.

Why not get something for half the price that tastes better and will yield identical results? Such as basically any of the popular proteins here.

[V13TCONG]

I think the only GNC suppliments I ever buy are either multi vitamins and fish oils.

Strong Ignorance ITT.

The wheybolic xtreme 60 is actually pretty good, a very good profile (NOT THE STANDARD WAY, NOT THE OLD WHEYBOLIC)
If u have a gold card or w/e u can get it for a reasonable price.
atleast try it before you bash it..

Overpriced. Paying that much for Isolate is retarded.


Even with a Goldcard its still ridiculous.


GNC raises the prices of products during gold card week, negating any savings you may have thought you were getting.

I use to think that - until I looked at the prices throughout the month and found that not true. =/

With the GNC card during the gold card week in the begining of the month - if you use a lot of supplements and don't mind buying bulk -- you can get a reasonable to okay deal. Not the best deal but an okay one. If you are going to shop at GNC I'd recommend splitting with someone else. The value is in bulk with the gold card -- their deals are usually buy one get one free or buy one get one half off + gold card cheaper price.

In any case they want to sell you two when you want just one. Now you have a 90 day supply and it cost you 45 bucks. Split that to 22.50 each person with a 45 day supply it is actually not that bad of a deal when it comes to protein shakes and junk.

I will say one think that annoyes me with GNC is their hot deals that are there -- the fine print is you can't use your gold card with the hot deals - the GNC employees won't say a damn thing.

Muscle Gauge Nutrition Pure Isolate Whey Protein is an excellent whey if you're on a budget.

[pigpen75]

never buy anythig at gnc unless its a holiday and not backordered. bb.com is the shiznit and make sure to get a 10% off code

Not on base! Every day is a gold card day
lower prices and no tax
you can find decent deals
I picked up a 2 lbs tub of ads muscle lean ( good stuff, whey cross flow micro whey, casein, creatine mono, glutamine, leucine, and a bit more for about 14$) and it taste great, almost taste like a starbucks vanilla latte

[2ripp3dup]

i hardly ever buy anything from gnc unless i know my buddy is on shift, then i can load up. most of the time he'll hook me up with buy 1 take 2 free, sometimes 3. a few times a didnt even have to pay for anything at all. he loves working there but he hates his 'gnc is the best manager'. in the end we both are reaping the gnc bro discount benefits. beats their bogo 50% deal anyday.

[acwild]

I'd suggest asking your questions here, as opposed to asking a salesmen at GNC.

Also, you can buy pretty much anything online for less than the cost at GNC.

I'd personally suggest Optimum 100% Whey as others have, the chocolate is absolutely amazing. You mix it several ways, I prefer one scoop with 2 cups of milk and 5grams of Creatine mixed in. It tastes even better with an equal packet tossed in.

Drink that and eat a banana for a good preworkout or postworkout drink.

I get GNC brand whey protein and its only $27 for 2 lbs. Do you guys consider that expensive. I didn't think it was a bad price. But that might be because the quality of protein isnt that great... but I'm not positive about that

Shop around on this site. You can get 2lbs. of better stuff for under 20 bucks.

I go to GNC and shop the close dated/clearance product only. Some shops will allow you to use your gold card on clearance stuff so the savings are even better. Just ask before you buy. In my town there are 5 GNC's and 3 of them will honor gold cards on clearance. I can get tubs of protein for under 16 bucks if I shop smart. That is the only time I buy from them.

GNC is overpriced.

I used to work there. No use in arguing. I did the sign changes right before a gold card week at a corporate store.

Franchise stores do whatever they want, set whatever price they want and give whatever discount the want.

Corporate stores raise the prices of the popular items during gold card week. I remember clearly Black Powder going from 49.99 to 64.99 during Gold Card week. I know, because I did the sign changes myself.


The only time its worth shopping there is when you can find close dated items that are very very cheap.

Those are hit and miss sometimes.

Yep I worked at a GNC for a year and they do raise prices during gold card week but usually with the 20% it will save a buck or two over regular price (still stupid & not worth card). I found the only good deals are if you do BOGO during gold card week. Its not that bad.

[HDavidsonOline]

only reason ill go there is if i dont wanna wait for shipping....sometimes u can get decent deals thought if the employee doesnt know what hes doing haha last week i got 2 tubs of jacked for like 42 or somthing it was a hot buy and i got my gold card discount and buy one get on half off but hot buys are usually just normal prices since gncs prices are more expensive
