The OP might respond extremely well to protein shakes over other protein sources and his requirements might be high in relation to your requirements.
The suggestion is simply to experiment to find out what works for him and I have simply provided alternatives to protein consumption without limiting him in any way.
I did not realize you know of his protein requirements and that they do not consist of 3, 100+ gram protein shakes daily.
We hear it from Marcus all the time in that there is no magical cycle or blend of compounds to promote great increases of muscle tissue. It is a trial and error process. One guy might love Enanthate and another guy might respond better to Propinate. Some grow off EQ and others know it to be garbage.
The same is also said for training styles, recovery techniques and food consumption. Try them out, keep records and come back to what consistently works for you.
