Reply With QuoteProtein is Protein dude... Just get yourself a popular whey brand and you should be fine. Same holds true for Creatine.. Just get yourself a good Creatine Monohydrate Powder and that is all you need. Salesmen will try to sell you other crap, but IMO that is all you need. If you are itchin to throw away your money though, I'm sure your local supplement store will be happy to sell you the moon
Costco is the best price for Protein....19.99 for 6lb tub, but I believe you are in UK and may not have that option. Other than that, any whey protein popular brand should be fine once again.

Are you cycling your protein?!?!
I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little-death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it has gone past I will turn the inner eye to see its path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain...

Rock,
Define cycling? If you're referring to so many weeks on and off like for creatine, absolutely not. I never heard any benefit of cycling protein?- O F F I C I A L . L I N K . M A S T E R -Maintains a Reference to all Gopros P/RR/S LinksGopros latest routines:

Not you Randy. I was asking Tiger Style if he was cycling Protein, that's what it looks like in his post. Yeah, you don't cycle protein, just wondering of TS realises that.

No Tiger....
You do want to cycle Creatine.. Most standard monohydrate powders you are safe on a 3 week 1 week off cycle.. Take 5 grams 30 minutes before workout, and 5 grams after workout.
Both brands Plouffe recommended are popular. I don't know if you can find them in the UK... Check with your local health store, or supplement retailer. If you can't find one then simply order off the internet.- O F F I C I A L . L I N K . M A S T E R -Maintains a Reference to all Gopros P/RR/S LinksGopros latest routines:

Don't ask wether you should or shouln't cycle creatine on this board because there isn't one set answer. Honestly, I don't it's nessacary. It's not like it puts that much stress on your body.

Ok... first off, protein is NOT just protein. I learned that this weekend. There are complete proteins and partial proteins. Optimum Whey is just a partial protein. A good protein is After Max. You dont want to follow the directions though... each serving is 40grams I believe, but your body can anly absorb around 25-30 every two hours.

After max isnt totally complete either. It is however MUCH better than plain 100% whey protein. I am going to be looking into proteins here in the next few weeks to see which one is the best. 100% whey is just cheap thats why people like it. Try adding more protein via your diet too. Eat meats, cottage cheese, eggs etc.
Yes the After Max will be good post w/o.P-side Inc.
