I'm not against new things at all, I know what its like to get tired of stuff eventually, although I can usually put up with the same old longer than most people.

Chuck Norris once lost his keys and couldn't remember where he put them. So he tortured himself for half an hour until he gave up their location.

i dont really know why people mind the taste of proteins,
there is a sole purpose to taking protein, and thats the protein. its not meant to give you food ecstacy. i just gulp mine down and deal with it, like 4/5 gulps and im done with my 60g of protein.
bananas, kiwis, berries is a good way to mask even the worst tasting protein !
also try some honey, that adds a lot of sweetness.

Simple, mass gainer = bulk, cutting = usually low carb diets. Mass gainer = weigh gainer, and in my case, way too many carbs and a waste of cash. Eat some oatmeal or brown rice instead.Originally posted by oaktownboy

Calories, glycogen stores in the liver, lots of energy. There are good slow release carbs, and there are cruddy fast release carbs.
Slow release produces less of an insulin spike, which allows for more long term energy (no crash), as well as less potential fat gain.Motivation Bench form Charles Poliquin When I let go of what I am, I become what I might be. Lao-Tzu

Cellular hydration is important for anabolism as well.

I like the 100% Whey from Optimum Nurtrition. You can get the 10lb bag from DpsNutrition for $48.99. I pretty much drink that all day long.
