ok youre right.

but If youre saying they didnt get big shoulders by just benching, military pressing or using alot of drugs than what are u saying they do? I mean youre saying 'just' to military presses too and thats what you are going for and trying to prove me wrong.

Yea but muscle milk has alot of calories too. One serving has around 350 and its high in lean lipids for allowing protein synthesis (if 'lean' lipids do that, correct me if im wrong). And if it doesnt have enough fat i need i always just have a bowl of salad with olive oil.

The only problem with muscle milk is that it probably doesnt have enough carbs.

Other than that it tastes really great, it increases creatine production in your own body, rapid muscle reapir, better than 'weight gainers'.......good shit

If you want more creatine just take creatine, no matter what you do stimulating natural production will never compare to direct supplementation.

And what in the world are "lean fats?" That must be as elusive as low-carb carbs.

I pretty much dropped shoulders from my routine some time back as an experiment and I believe it eventually lead to my shoulder injuries (primarly on my left side). I worked up to a 425 bench with just minor side lateral work, but for my structure I do believe some shoulder work is mandatory.

For diet i dont need to worry so much because i recently just bought some musclebuilding powder-muscle milk.

Horseshit in a can, but tastes like Nestle's. Yeah thats all you need to get hooge and ripped and be the next Mr. Olympia!

Not really, get your diet moving or wonder for years and years why you aren't where you want to be. Muscle Milk?

Muscle milk isnt bad, but its not the best. In fact, id say its best for beginners to get used to the TASTE of protein powders. Its good, but its not THAT good.

If its not the best then what is the best? I mean as long as its safe and very effective i'll go to vitamin shoppe and get it.

And mike544whatever stay the fuck out of this , you just make me wanna kick your ass more and more. I just want to ask a damn question without coming back and seeing that you have the last post.

I dont like it. Muscle milk is not one of the best proteins. I buy whey and thats it. If I were to pick another protein it would be caesein of course. Other than that theres no reason to buy something that can be so easily obtained via food.

AKIRA · 12-29-2006, 05:04 PM

CytoSport (same people that make MuscleMilk) make a Whey shake that is quite tasty. I buy that and their CytoGain when I can. Chocolate Mint. Yum!

Syntha 6 is good, and I like Lee Labradas Pro-V even though its a milk based protein.

Are these all muscle building supplements that are better than muscle milk or just stuff that you like? Do they promote rapid muscle tissue rapair or are they just great because they're whey?

And Double D, I dont think you can find evopro in regular foods. Its only in muscle milk.
