Wow, I can't imagine protein being that bad. I hate fruit flavoured shakes (although i had an orange creamsicle once that was good)

You're feeling bloated from your pre-workout shake?

What I have right now on the counter; they're awsome. I've tried over 25 protein brands

10lbs bag of ON Whey dutch chocolate. Pre and post.

BSN - Syntha-6 chocolate milkshake. Pre and meal replacement

Muscle Pharm chocolate. Pre workout pre bed

Syntha 6 taste like a Red Robins chocolate milkshake, it's freakin awsome. ON Why taste good (1 scoop per 250ml of mill), I never feel full on the stuff. Muscle Pharm comes in 3rd, but it's a great protein.

Any and all GNC crap upsets my stomach, though I haven't tried it for a few years.

Just down the shit and lift...

Then buy a different brand of protein when you are done...

Why in the world would you buy a watermelon protein?...

Are you sure you don't have BCAA's?...

Get a good chocolate or vanilla...

ON has good quality protein and taste good. Go with them...

i use bcaa's pre and then whey isolate post

 

[Powermaster]

40 gm Whey/water 1 hour pre because I like to train on an empty stomach, then 40 gm Whey/water post with some BCAA added then whole food an hour later to extend muscle protein synthesis.

why add bcaa to whey? whey already has good amounts of bcaa

 

[packers6211]

I alt btw two of the best I've ever used, Myofusion by Gaspari, and Combat by Muscle Pharm. Both aren't robbing your bank account and the taste is freaking awesome. I normally buy the 5 lb off Orbitnutrition. It will last me two months at least.

I want to make sure I get the 3 gm Leucine threshold to initiate muscle protein synthesis post workout. But you are right there should be enough in 40gms whey to do that.

pre-post

I'm looking for a pre-workout drink w/NO,Arginine and all the other goodies that will give me good pumps,vascularity and the energy to get through my routine's and not die at the end.also that won't make me feel nausiated during my routine . I think that the 1's ive been using just have too much sugar or something that does'nt agree when I really start the push at the gym any sugg. will be helpfull.

 

[hypo_glycemic]

Fast acting whey isolate and bcaa's pre-workout. After maybe a hydrolzyed fast acting w/ glutamine for recovery.And at night before bed, maybe cottage cheese or Casein whey protein-which is the same thing as cottage cheese- a slow extended release protein from keeping you from going catabolic (where the body feeds off muscle for fuel)..

Try Karbolyn or Vitargo w/bcaa, creatine gluconate, and whatever else your like...

The insulin pulse from this drink will ignite some pretty good muscular pumps..

[grotto72]

vitargo is great for extended energy supply

 

[stewy101]

Syntha 6 with 1/2 cup oatmeal before and Syntha 6 with cyto-carb 2 or vitargo after

The research would suggest that 20g whey does that. 12-15g bcaa, and 8-10g EAA. Anything more and its just nutrients of energy/ tissue remodeling.
