    I use 1 scoop of whey for breakfast shake
    2 scoops of whey in my post workout shake

    I way over do it. I take in around 8 scoops a day. About 200 grams of protein from whey and another 200 from real food. I do this 24/7.

    Might not be overdoing it...Everyone has different needs

    Obviously 400 grams from real food, would be pretty expensive.

    I have 1 in the morning, 1 and 1/2 post workout, 1 in the early morning (between sleeping) but I might stop doing that.

    Here's what I would suggest...

    1 isolate when waking up for fast protein. 1 whey mix before a workout, absorbs slower so you're getting protein and aminos your whole workout. 2 islolate after for fast protein and recovery. 2 whey mix before bed to supply the muscles during sleep...

    Here's what I take...

    2-4 a day.
    May the Lord Jesus Christ bless those who bless me as I gladly accept their blessings, and curse those who curse me all the while protecting me for any evils. In Christ name, amen...

    Only once a day at 2 scoops, I don't buy into the high protein BS the supplement companies preach.
    I highly recommend all IronMagLabs supplements!

    Prob about 4 scoops a day, but the scoops don't matter as much as how big the serving is
