What type of Whey Protein do you use..how does it taste and how do you mix it? I am trying to find some that is easy to mix with good taste. Thanks in advance

i use ON 100% whey protien(choclate) it tastes good on its own.. but sometimes i like to mix Ovaltine in with it for a little extra flavor since Ovaltine already has alot of vitamins and minerals in it.. when i drink it on the go i usually get a funnel and funnel the whey into a aquafina bottle or whatever i feel.. then when i need to drink it i go to random drinking fountain fill up with water.. shake for 15 seconds.. and cheers!

how much protein per serving?? and how big is the scoop? alot of these powders say 50g per serving but it takes 3 dump truck sized scoops for 1 serving

I do the same as j rizz. In the morning though Ill throw in some oats and peanut butter for breakfast.

mine is 23g of protein per seving.. so basically 23g of protein for 1 scoop.. the scoops are relativley small too.. i actually think its alot of protein per serving(1scoop).
i kno what u mean tho. ive had the same problem with that.. i got some isopure in the packet form and it said 50g of protein.. i go to dump it in a shaker.. and its like wtf why is half my shaker taken up with protein.. but yeah ON whey is deff good when it comes to protein to serving ratio.

today i made this awsome concoction.. well not much of a concoction.. but it tasted hella good.
i took some fat free pancake mix (about 1 cup) and stirred in a little kashi and some oatmeal (1 cup ) threw it in the pan and made some oatmeal kashi pancakes!!! YUM YUM!!!

I totally agree, ON 100% is great stuff. And the taste, especially the chocolate is the best goin IMO. Good luck.

how much protein can your body absorb in a a hour i heard it was 50 is that true



Posted by: machinehead

i use whey protein isolate, nature's best zero carb isopure

i use that because two important things:

1. the sweetener is sucralose of splenda, this is the most secure sweetener, other brands use asparteme and acesulfame K or sugar.
2. this whey contains zero carbs and zero fats which effects on the digestion.

there is no maximum amount. the body can digest any amount of protein that passes through the GIT. how much of that protein is utilized is dependant on many variables. basically the more LBM you have and the more active you are the greater need your body has for protein, so it will "utilize" more.

exactly, different athletes will require different amounts

eg a 240lbs guy w/ 9%BF will be able to utilise a lot more protein in one go than say a 130lbs guy w/15%BF

there is no set limit for everyone, that is just straight up bull

Was wondering if it safe to take about :

whey protein = 40g
creatine = 10g
selenium = 100mcg

all in one day for weight training?



Posted by: silencer

Jarsteen : Yes it's safe.

Can i also drink the whey protein directly after drinking the creatine when i wake up in the morning?
