    Protein Pills

    ok..well I've been on whey protein for about 6 months now or so, and I want to switch to pills...

    shakes just don't cut it for me anymore, not in terms of quality but in terms of convenience...

    so can anyone recommend a decent protein pill? thanks again...

    Listen to what you are asking for?

    Even if the pill was simply protein, no fillers, Imagine the size of a 30g protein pill!!!

    you would need a knife and fork to eat it.

    I suggest you invest in some cans of tuna or chicken breasts and snak on those if a shake is not convenient.

    Well you can get amino acids in pill form, but you would be taking 10-20 at a time of each acid for it to have the benefit of actual proteins. Macronutrients arent very useful in pill form..

    are you talking to me?

    It was a legit question, actually if you think about it, BCAAs, or AMINO ACID PILLS are essientially protein pills. Its just you would need an obsurd amount of them to get anywhere near a decent amount of protein.
