How effective are Shakes

[Demon Deacon]

Today took in about 85 grams of protein from shakes and probably about 100 grams of protein from real food. How effective is taking this amount of protein from shakes?

[nsa]

It's certainly better than only taking 100 grams of protein from food.

[SwoleCat]

It's fine IMO as long as it's a GOOD quality protein. No half (__!__)'ed stuff.

[Beernutz]

so you suggest any good protein shakes inparticular Swole. I used ISO whey burst by GNC.

I need a favour - I buy my protein in bulk at a steal: 44lbs bags for CDN $130

Could someone take a minute and look at the specs and let me know if the specs look good?

I know it's concentrate, not isolate.

[dirtybrit55]

what is better, concentrate or isolate?

[nsa]

isolate is better

[dirtybrit55]

cool, why?

[SwoleCat]

isolate and concentrate are the same protein quality (in dealing with ATW anyhow) with the difference being the concentrate has like 2-3 grams of carbs and fat per serving, where the isolate has less than 1 of each per serving.

Thanks for clearing that up, allthewhey.com isolate looks good. I think I might try it

Get orange, it's insanely delicious.

Does ATW sell their stuff through any stores or is it strictly through their site?

[Latimus]

i think shakes are better then real food...atleast i want them to be!

Just through the site as far as I know, yeah.

[bad_man]

Cool. My local MuscleMag store matches prices from any website I've seen plus I don't have to pay for shipping. But I've been wanting to try the orange protein you're always raving about so I think I'll place an order.

[SwoleCat]

It's really good! I use water, ice, and blend it up. No need to blend, as it stirs w/ease w/a spoon, I just like to break up the ice and make it frothy.

Low carb milk (tried it a few times) really makes it bomb, but I can't include that stuff too often, so water is more than okay.

There is no way a liquid meal can be better than a solid meal...

on snap! the gloves are off

[nsa]

I did it by almost dying and being in a coma for 6 weeks. Thats why i was down to 125, thats what i weighed when i left the hospital. The 2 months i spent in the hospital i didn't move much so i atrophied like crazy. I atribute the muscle gain from a new diet, training and muscle memory. As for the post whoring, I have helped out alot of people on here so im in no way ashamed of it.
