Whey Protein Suggestions

[Erotomaniac]

Hello people. This is my first message by the way!

I've decided to buy protein powder to use right after the workouts. I really don't know too much about them.

1) Should I use whey protein? Almost everyone use, suggest whey.
2) Can you suggest me some brand names?
3) Is there any cons using protein powders? As far as i know, the only con is it makes you fart i guess?

[LinzKaye]

Try out CL ProNOM 23 you can hit up my signature for samples of the chocolate cupcake batter

[jabmaster2]

You don't need to ingest protein right after working out.

That being said. I like iforce protean and xf 2.0, CL pronom is quite tasty as well. All those are blends not straight whey

[JKrenegade]

1) Whey
2) I will link you a site so you can make up your own mine, this site contains a lot of reviews, http://www.provenprotein.com/ however you can't really go wrong with gold standard 100% whey if you're american, if you're from the UK i'd go for Myprotein Impact whey as it's cheap!
3) I can't think of any downsides of taking protein powder!

[powercage]

I would use a protein supplement of some kind. It's not always easy to get in adequate protein during the day. This is an easier way to add quality protein.


PROnom is an excellent choice. Both flavors are great depending on what you like.

1) You can do whey, imo doesnt matter that much. I use blends. The difference in proteins is really the digestion times. Whey digests 30 mins - 1 hour, egg protein within a couple hours, casein within 6-8 hours.
2) Trutein any flavour is delicious, Protean, xtreme formulations ultra peptide 2.0 lemon cream pie, pronom 23, vpx sro graham cracker (this one is a whey isolate). Really all of these taste great, its just a matter of finding one that fits your macros and is in your budget.
3) I dont find any cons at all, but there have been a few proteins that do upset my stomach a bit, causing gas and bloating. This doesnt happen too often at all! If it is causing gas for you then you should try something different. Proteins with alot of whey concentrate are usually the ones people complain about.

This.
Blends give you more flexibility (if you want to cook with your powder).
Trutein is good too. Also Dymatize Elite Gourmet and Myofusion if you want to save some money.

Use protein powder as needed to help reach your macros. Many solid proteins out there, just gatta find one that fits your budget and taste.

Flavor is amazing, profile is top tier, and the price is one of the most competitive on the market.

The best tasting ones I have had lately

Choc PB Isoflex
Choc Hexapro
Vanilla Mint Swirl Protean
Choc and Vanil Pronom
Trutein Cinnabun

[aaronuconn]

Can't go wrong with Trutein, Isoflex, Protean, or ProNom.

[pellis1981]

In my opinion it doesn't really matter about what brand it is. If your cutting you need to go with a low cal, fat, and carb source of protein. But you can get your protein from Walmart for 14.99 and you will still be ok , just remember to train hard with intensity brother and you'll see results.

[CONTROLLED LABS]

PROnom for sure and there are free samples out there now

1) Should I use whey protein? Almost everyone use, suggest whey. Many people find it challenging to meet their daily protein requirements through whole foods, and protein powder is a convenient method for fulfilling protein needs. It doesn't actually do anything other than provide you with an easy and tasty source of protein. You should use it to ensure you get enough protein each day.
2) Can you suggest me some brand names? Trutein
3) Is there any cons using protein powders? As far as i know, the only con is it makes you fart i guess?I steer clear of protein powders that cause any digestive issues. You may have to try a few different powders before you find the one that works best for you.

That is a good picture. I'll have to break out my shiniest tub of Trutein to compete with that...

Choc PB Isoflex
Choc Hexapro

Trutein Cinnabun

I'm somewhat surprised that Choc Hexapro isn't mentioned more often. I guzzled several mini cups of it at the Arnold Expo last year and thought it was good, especially considering how sick I am of chocolate protein powder. It really hit the spot while I was being smashed and groped by thousands of people.

PROnom for sure and there are free samples out there now

As if there weren't enough competition in the world of protein powder, Controlled Labs just had to go and make a protein powder

Not true. If the powder fits your macros it doesn't matter what the makeup of the macros are of the powder.

Dude if you go this year you have to try the Cookies and Creme Hexapro. EPIC

I'll grope you good this year

[Peace94]

I'm not a big laddie like some of the others commenting here but XL nutrition whey is amazing value for money, the vanilla flavour is absolutely majestic.

[Blackjack68]

Shake isn't needed right after workout, but that said, I still do it.

Can't go wrong with Trutein. It's a blend of whey, egg, casein.
If you're looking for pure whey, the same company makes Wheyology which I also love.

Several good ones out there, but those are my personal favs.

4 protein powder reviews.

[SwolenONE]

Grab a 5lb tub of IntraPro before its gone, $50 for a quality whey iso = cant pass up

If looking for a blend, Giant's Delicious Protein is great in vanilla.

I'll be there! I'm constantly on the prowl for a tasty C&C since I'm not sure if TNS is ever going to create that flavor. I'm still hanging on to a tub of the old Myo right now, but I'm not too fond of it. I'll wiggle my way to the Allmax booth to give it the taste test.

[Fbomb1990]

I really like carnivore. It's a good beef protein Isolate and the fruity flavors are really good. I hate drinking a heavy chocolate flavored shake after a workout.

[My_Legacy]

I currently use and enjoy NF Pro; ON Whey is something else I'd recommend as well

[STINSAN3]

Is Trutein already sold-out again on here?

[BetterThanLife]

Is Trutein already sold-out again on here?

Many of the other retailers were sold out after the Black Friday and Cyber Monday madness, and they needed to be restocked as well. The company appears to go in rotation, and bb.com is going to be shipped more Trutein next Friday. The site will certainly have an abundance of Trutein once it's back in the store, but for the time being, you will have to look elsewhere to satisfy Trutein needs.

[llahhsoj]

Some good choices listed already.



^^ Here is another one. Combat Powder is a protein blend.

I would recommend using whey protein after working out because of the torture you're putting your muscles through at the gym and they need to recover. The brand doesn't really matter but I use ON.

[memcop]

Just ordered Giant Sports Vanilla, I'll let you know. (nopromo)

I personally love the Protogen and just got done with Syntha-6 Chocolate chip cookie dough and PB chocolate. Grade A stuff. There are tons of choices here, JUST HIT THE STORE

So many choices!

[llahhsoj]

I haven't tried anything by Giant but I hear its protein flavors are good.
