Thread: How Much Whey Is Too Much?

Yes that is too much whey.

Firstly - real food is better than whey (exception being PWO). It offers you things like vitamins, minerals, fats, water, and other nutrients. So, unless you have a medical condition which prevents you from chewing then stop wasting your money on whey and start eating real food!!

Secondly - 2 scoops taken 4 x a day = 200g of protein!! And, as you are also eating eggs etc, unless you are HUGE you do not need a great deal more protein than this (even if you were 210 pounds of PURE muscle you would only be looking at about 315g of protein as a daily requiremend!

If you have MAJOR issues with getting down the food then 2 or 3 servings of whey may be ok for a day - but 8 scoops a day is a little extreme.

well thanks for the advice. ill narrow it down but it is kinda hard to get the calories in every day considering im 14 and cant eat 2-3 times during school.

Also Whey kicks into your system but real food will break down slower which is better, I only use Whey after training.

Yes you can. Just whip out food in the middle of class. I do it. I don't give a rats ass. Or, if you have to stuff down a quick snack in between classes, then do so.

You shouldn't even need to eat 3 times during the day. Let's say you have class from 7:30-2:30. You eat breakfast at 7 before you leave for school, 10 at school, maybe a quick snack at like 1 of some trail mix or something in between classes (Just a couple hundred calories to hold you off), then again at 2:30-3PM when school gets out.
