Can I mix/blend oatmeal with whey protein?

Due to the UK supps economy, it's cheaper for me to buy several tubbs of whey at a time, but I've also bought high quality weight gainer (Reflex Instant Mass) but the latter always costs more.

What you guys recon to me blending oatmeal in with a whey shake? Would this be drinkable?

Also, should it be in a 50:50 mix? I.e. for every scoop of whey I put int 1 scoop of oatmeal?

Thanks guys!



I love it when a plan comes together.

Yep do it all the time.



Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it.

I was using oat meal and did not like the clumps. I now add about 1/3 Cup of raw oat bran to my shakes. I also mix it with my yogurt for breakfast.

Post workout I will put a 1/2 cup of old fahioned oats and a scoop of ON whey in a cup, mix it up, and let it sit for a few minutes then drink it down. Works wonders.

Ditto. I very rarely use Oats, pretty much always oat bran.

Me too. I just let them soak for alittle bit in the protien mixture and if it gets alittle thick towards the bottom, I just grab a spoon and eat up.

just mix it...but not in the blender.Just mix your protein and your oatmeal in a bowl and mix it.Eat it like normal oats.taste amazing.

But if you really whant to make your own weight gainer,add some maltodextrine to bump the carbs.

Me I mix 2 scoop of whey with 2-3 scoop of maltodextrine (NOW carbogainer)
add some creatine (5g) and some glutamine (10g) and you have a cheap home made weigth gainer.

THEN YOU'RE JUST PRETENDIN...
