PLEASE HELP WITH PROTEIN SHAKE question

**gaugethedog** · 03-13-2012, 07:18 PM

hey i was looking at getting a new protein powder and i was wondering which one is very good, everyone says get a good protein shake, but from what i understand all of them have about the same grams of protein per serving. the ones that claim to have more usually say that a serving is 2 scoops and the same size bottle only has 17 servings instead of the one with 23g protein that is a single scoop but has 30 servings haha. i dont know which one i should take

I do Optimum Nutrition Pro Complex. It's supposed to be pretty good. Before that I took ISO 100.

I agree with optimum nutrition. It doesn't taste as good as others but the quality is supposed to great! I also have tried egg proteinfrom truenutrition and it's not bad. Egg protein is the most efficient supposedly. Don't let volume fool you. Monster milk has twice the protein and half the servings as muscle milk. 54 g is too much at one time anyway IMO. Dollar for dollar an quality you prolly won't beat optimum nutrition.

, carnivor beef protein is also good if your looking to mix things up a bit. its quickly digested and contains no whey or eggs just good ol beef protein

I just get whatever name-brand is on sale, and sounds tasty. Syntha-6 is awesome.

Recently I scored a great deal on Universal Ultra Whey Pro. Tastes decent, and mixes perfectly.

Might be some of the worst advice considering you quoted muscle milk.....lol.......

Myofusion is the way to go.........

I really like the ON Pro Complex...it's a mix of several different types of proteins and I like the way it taste.

Side note: If you don't like the way your protein shake taste, just mix in a tbs or 2 of peanut butter and blend it up. I've yet to find a brand that didn't taste good if you did it this way. Just remember that peanut butter is high in fat so make sure it fits into your macros or make room for it.

Seems I'm not as gifted as y'all so yeah I've taken muscle milk before. It's an easy way for more carbs fat and protein. Didn't say it was the best. I said it taste good. ;-)

Out of curiosity, why did you switch from ISO 100? I'm using that now and it seems pretty good, but I'm wondering if the Optimum Nutrition one is better.

You should look into PB2. Powdered peanut butter with 85% lest fat. Great stuff.

Dymatize Elite Whey Protein has the best profile / value if you buy a 10 Lb. box.

Species Nutrition Isolyze has the best profile of anything I've ever seen, tastes the best also - but is very expensive - twice the cost of Dymatize.

i was using optimum nutrition for over a year, the vanilla casein is very tasty, ive recently switched to a new brand on the market called matrix anabolic whey, they are on ebay, 45 servings for 35 dollars and each serving has 40 grams protein and 12 grams glutamine, ive never looked back!!!!
