Hey guys i'm 18, and I weigh about 130lbs. I just started working out and I noticed im allergic to something in whey protein. I have read around and it looks like whey is the best out there. Im extremely bummed because im pretty skinny and i'm tired of it! So I went in the GNC store and the lady recommended egg protein instead. What do you guys recommend and why? Btw im going in for a doc's appointment soon to get an allergy test. Thanks !

This and can use Hemp powder protein from time to time, with fruit etc (homemade) to help up the calories in between meals. Funny enough I was 130 at 5"8 and now just a bit over 180. I used weight gainers but that is like protein chocolate cakes. Best to make your own and carry them around with you in a backpack like I used to.

Also, im looking for fast acting protein like whey and egg protein. Also please let me know what you used to make those chocolate cakes! My friends are recommending me weight gainers. And the reason i'm looking for fast acting proteins is because my dad used to lift and he said anything other than fast acting is a waste of money. Not sure what he means by it.

Look, if you can't use the whey powder than that's fine. It's not a necessity. There's no real benefit to it besides the convenience, or if you are trying to fit more calories in but aren't hungry enough. You can easily get your 130g of protein from good sources like eggs, chicken, tuna, other fish, beef, and dairy products if you can stomach them; milk, yogurt, etc. Whey protein is the protein that is in milk. The powder is a removed, processed version of it.
Meal timing doesn't matter and having a preworkout or postworkout shake will not improve gains.Best Meet Lifts:

Protein synthesis works up to 24hours (or was it 48).
You could drink a shake 10secs after your workout or two hours and still reap the same benefits.
At 130lbs, your lean muscle mass is probably around 115ish, so you realistically only need 115g of protein in which is easy to achieve on a daily basis.
Whey, casein, egg, soy and all kinds of processed powder protein is just a supplement if you can't achieve 115g.
Btw, you should do a manual self brainwash and clear all the bullcrap you heard from the media and your dad because it's nothing else but broscience, marketing strategies and lies.Retired 74kg PL Open Division (3 meets)
