Protein supplements

[kaczynski1]

So I've been looking for a new protein powder for after work out. I am currently trying to gain muscle and not lose weight. I have used whey protein in the past but it makes me nauseous. It's too hard for my stomach to digest. Does anyone have any ideas of what types of protein I should use?

Whey isolate will be easier on your stomach. Muscle Pharms Banana split is one of my favorite isolates.

Try to get the majority of your protein from whole foods, powders are there to supplement what you cannot achieve from meats, eggs etc. To gain muscle make sure you're eating in a caloric surplus

Good advice from Wolfbeast above.

Also, something to note: you don't need a protein shake immediately post-WO.

Look into Iso-100 by Dymatize, Iso Smooth by Blue Star, or Isotean by iForce if you need an isolate. As always, the preference would be whole foods. Just eat a meal when you get home from the gym if you're hungry. If you're not hungry, you can wait to eat.
