Best Protein Powder For Gaining Muscle?

[Ryguy8161]

Can you buy 100% ON Whey in stores?

*********s NitroWhey Extreme or NytroWhey Extreme for Hardgainers is unreal. I use either of those before and after a workout, and Musclemilk about 1 hour before going to bed, as is contains micellar casein, and whey Isolate and concentrate for a one, two, three punch of fast acting protein and slow acting protein. I also use Cytodynes Z-Mass PM and stack it with 750mg of tribulus, when I dont use the muscle milk at night, as I believe it contains calcium, and calcium renders the ZMA ineffective. I use the tribulus regardless if I take the ZMA. When taking the ZMA I take about 5mg of glutamine in water, about 1 hr before the ZMA, as it has a good anti catabolic effect. I also use a multivitamin, and take 500mg of additional vitamin C 3 times a day. I use Thermadrol as a fat burner I've had good results with these products so far. My body weight is going up and my fat is going away. I'm a fairly lean 6ft 223lbs and not looking to get bigger than 230lbs.

I have to recommend N-Large II. I've been lifting on and off over the past 3yrs and my peak weight was 150lbs at 6'1 with 11.5" biceps, gee, can we say skinny??? Recently a Gold's Gym opened in my area and I immediately joined and decided to get serious. I started on Jan. 16 2006 and weighed in at 145lbs. With just the N-Large II and a good diet (which consisted of 3000 calories and 200-220g of protein a day), I hit 168lbs as of March 16. I began adding in other supplements and am currently taking N-Large II, Nitrix, NO Xplode, and Cell Mass and my weight varies between 172lbs and 174lbs and my biceps are slightly over 14". In three months I've gone from being called "Sticks" (my nickname on my HS Football Team), to having people come up and comment on how much more built I've become. Did I gain some fat? Of course, but nothing I can't deal with. What the label says is one thing, experience is another.

Can you buy 100% ON Whey in stores?

yea u can

[justinhazard]

I use 4 ever fit fruit blast, chocolate flavour, lots of protein per scoop and tastes pretty decent (just finished off a 6 lb tub of tropical mango, got sick of it near the end) The chocolate tastes almost like chocolate milk (really darn close, very manageable). http://www.4everhealth.com/mrp.htm

[FSUNolesZ]

Which is better Muscle Builder Shake out of these 3 ?!?

1) Cytosport Muscle Milk
2) BSN SYNTHA-6
3) S.A.N INFUSION

[DaleCaliente]

I believe Muscle Milk is the best for gaining muscle. It all comes down to your diet though a supplement won't make up for a bad diet or bad training.

ARE YOU SERIOUS???

Muscle Milk is crap for goons who dont know about nutrition. Its got 350 Calories and 18 grams of fat per serving. 8 Grams of saturated fat. Thats as much as a whole Hersheys bar. Just 32 Grams of protein for all that??? Might as well get a can of tuna, youll do better than that crap n save money.

[ChokeOnStrength]

Does anyone have anything to say about Precisions Iso-Pro lowcarb? It's Major Proteins include
Beta - Lactoglobulin - 44 - 50%

This has been my first whey protein buy, since a year ago, I've noticed great strength gains and it helps me get lean... If anyone has any other experience with this and perhaps they have found better results with others, please direct me elsewhere.

Hi All,

I've been wondering. I''m using gnc mega man for about 6 six weeks now, but it seems, alltough I'm training like hell, I do NOT loose any weight. I thought that gnc megaman only is a vitamin supplement and not some energiser or mussle builder. Am I wrong? For example, I train 4 times a week muay thai kickboxing en ine time I run 7 miles and I still weigh 270 pounds....
Should I stay off the megaman? The weight I feel best by is around 220 pounds.

The guy said he thought it was best for gaining muscle, and 350 calories will help do that. And fat isn't a bad thing.

http://www.bodybuilding.com/fun/md73.htm

Here is one article that says a certain amount of saturated fat is good for you. I could post hundreds of others that back it up, and you could find hundreds that would refute it. Bottom line, there isn't any reason to call people who use Muscle Milk goons.

[Underdog1984]

what is the difference between cheap and expensive protiens anyways, there all the same, some are absorbed faster tehn others thats it. Cheap or not there all the same.

[eckohb]

not necessarily true. the quality of the protein and the different kinds of protein are important as to how they are absorbed. I wouldnt waste money on some wal mart brand protein or anything like that. ON Whey appears to have the best bang for your buck, but I like Nitro Tech. If it aint broke, dont fix it, so thats what im sticking with

[raimu83]

NItro Tech and ProM3
but it is only based on my experience, since I get good gains with those product

[kaos1988]

HDT problend. Period.

[ASH786]

Has anyone tried reflex whey? Tates as good as optium and works with my stomach. Its high in BCAA and it worked for me. Avilibale in the UK, Not sure if you can get this in the states. Ive tried a few others like Mr pro-Mass, Pro- LAbs, Dynamites but found out that you couldent even have a decent ****.

So for me its Reflex OR ONs 100%

[UK2BB]

i might try reflex whey as well since im from the uk. is starberry flavor nice? or should i just stick with chocolate. i can handle ON 100% whey but its not doing much for me although that may just be diet

[Greek God]

You need WPI, and a casein to gain muscle.

Dont know never tried any other falvour apart from bannana. hmmmmmmmmm

[Amazin Caucasian]

substance WPI v. ON 100% Whey Gold Standard

[Underdog1984]

wut do u guys think about ultimate nutritions whey supreme. It doesnt taste that bad but it doesnt mix well with anything, even milk and its very cheap. Wut do u guys think about it.

[SwagMorris]

I tried this one protein supplement out for a long time and every pound that I weigh now I contribute to that. It is called Food and it has worked wonders for me.

[Au22Edub]

ISS ProM3 fo sho!!

thats halarious!!!

[sandow21]

Iron-Tek Essential Natural 100% Protein.
Has whey isolate and concentrate
Has Milk protein(micellar casein)
5lb for just $23. No better deal than this one for a blend.

[Psychoxxx]

I currently use Cytosport Cytogainer (chocolate malt and rocky road). I tried Prolab N Large 2 (chocolate) but it has too much lactose and the taste was horrible. Champion Nutrition Super Heavyweight Gainer tastes great but also has too much lactose.

[Eomer]

AST's VP2 is the only protein worth using. It's

- the only 100% hydrolyzed peptide isolate
- contains 'bio active' peptide ioslates
- contains 23.5g of protein per scoop
- 0.5g fat
- less than 0.5g sugar
- Glutamine enchanced

It's scientifically proven to increase mass more than 615% than other proteins, and increases Type 2 fibres by 543%.

I'm not invovled with AST in any way, other than buying there products. I've been using it for around 6 months, for the odd time i'd train, but lately ive been training properly and im using it with NY-Tro and Muscle XGF and you see results every week. I've been using it properly for a week nearly, and already ive put on about 2-3 pounds.
There's so many companies out there that talk complete bull****, they try and pack as much key words into there products to sound great, but they are absolutely useless.
Generally im skeptical about companies in this business, but i came across AST through there website and read there research and Q&A for around a year before trying theyre products. I suggest you take a look at there website if your wanting to learn anything about exercise science.

[DinoT1985]

Out of the proteins I've used, I got the best from Tropicana Ultra Heavyweight Protein

I'm currently on Weider's Muscle Builder and was on it before my 3 month hiatus from weight lifting. It seems to be ok, but nothing special.

I've also used Amino Research LeanMass Protein
but it was crap.

Next will be getting Dorian Yate's ProPeptide.
