it depends on a lot of factors; how big your are, your daily protien intake, whether your cutting or bulking and whether your supplementing with any other kind of protien.leg_press said:Ok, not mean to be nasty but other than FLEX cus I know how much he uses, how long should a 5lb tub of whey usually last your average bodybuilder
crazy_enough said:2 weeks for me.
BigDyl said:Flex goes through that shit in like 2 days I think.
It depends though. Say you had 8 scoops a day.
@ 80 servings, you'd be looking at 10 days..
Lemme see, 454 grams(1 pound) X 5= 2270 grams of powderLuke8395 said:You seriously consume 160grams of whey a day alone? You would really benifit from getting protein from other sources.
actaully if you apply maths to the situation it works out at 80g per day and its quite easy to only have 80g per day of powder when you eating enough complete protien sourcesvegman said:How can you get 4 weeks out of it? That's only about 60g a day
maze said:I dont think whey alone should be consumed at that rate ... have an egg protein powder or a milk and egg too ... and combine them.
like: morning 50g whey (2 scoops)
before wk 50g
after wk 50g
80g? How's thatstu21Ldn said:actaully if you apply maths to the situation it works out at 80g per day and its quite easy to only have 80g per day of powder when you eating enough complete protien sources
can you post these studies?DamnHardGainer said:Considering most studies suggest the body can absorb a maximum of 25~30g protein in one sitting, it looks like many people here are literally flushing good protein down the toilet. If you already are intaking good natural protein 6 times a day as it is, opportunities to down an extra 5 servings or so of protein shakes ought to be hard to come by. Even with a 2 hour spread it'd take almost a full 24 hours to take in that much protein efficiently.
Good thing protein is dirt cheap these days.

stu21Ldn said:5lb = 2270g
4wks = 28 days
2270/28 = 81g per day
i wasnt sure if he was refering to the amount of protien or the amount of powder - its irrelivant anyway seeing as whey protien isnt the only powdered protien i use and the dose depends on whether its a workout day or notMudge said:* Carbs
