What Whey do you guys use?

[nmartinez12443]

Almost out of Whey, I am currently using ON whey, but I was wondering if I could go cheaper or maybe something is better than ON, since many wheys have similar composition. Just want to know what you guys are using and if I can find a hidden gem.(don't say muscle milk)

I am considering: (all around same price cytosport is cheaper with same specs as ON, myofusion has more fat/cal/carbs)

Cytosport Complete Whey
ON Whey
Myofusion

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Or I could go cheap EAS from Sams club or Sciviation etc.

my other current supplements are:

krealkalyn (soon to be replaced with green mag)
NO shotgun
Adam multivitamin
ON fish oil
Diet is pretty good.

Won't apply since I'm in Aus, but here is the stuff I use:

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/20kg-Professional-Whey-Protein-Concentrate-Powder-WPC-/140457792193?pt=AU_Exercise_Accessories&hash=item20b3efd2c1

http://cgi.ebay.com.au/6kg-PURE-PROFESSIONAL-WHEY-PROTEIN-ISOLATE-POWDER-WPI-/140477440204?pt=AU_Exercise_Accessories&hash=item20b51ba0cc

I use the WPC except for pre and post workout, since I figure 80g of protein per 100g compared to 90g is not a great difference.

And WPC was cheaper so I could take in more each day.

I did an analysis of this and some wholefoods and this was the cheapest way to get a lot of protein, as opposed to whole foods (but of course do both).

Carbs are cheap to get, so I don't see the point of buying a supplement with them in it.

Of course, since I've now broken my arm and heavy weights are at least 3 months away, will be giving the protein shakes a miss for a while

MOST commerical protein powders are almost entirely WHEY CONCENTRATE with like a 5% precentage of a different form of either Isolate,cold filtration or another form of processing.

I buy just regular Body Fortress 2lbs for 14$ at Wal-Mart just due to it being the same thing as the GNC 60+$ price range.

Cheap stuff and make my own shakes with fruit juice and a little bit of crushed ice. I love vanilla flavored whey with mango juice, delicious.

As far as composition and all that, I don't really care. They're mostly the same. What makes a bigger difference is the other stuff you eat besides the whey, when you eat, how much you eat and your training habits.

If you want to take a protein that makes a difference, try some casein. It also comes from milk, unlike whey protein casein is slower release.

Me and my fiance both use the Allmax isolate stuff. Mixes well, tastes good, and is supposed to be a great product.

 

[j0n24]

Watch out throwing casein around alle.....before you know it some guy that doesnt know anything about protein powders will go out and buy it and later that night vomit it out do to casein tasting like shiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiit.

 

[Pimp-sicle]

99% of main stream whey is complete and utter $%it in terms of quality. Almost all supps heat the whey, which denatures the protein, in terms of muscle gain whey will be whey.

What's more important is to look at the additional ingredients.

Also know that most isolates have more protein per gram than whey blends or concentrates, but generally concentrates taste much better.

I personally use egg white protein as part of my PWO, tastes awesome and gets the job done.

That's why the box has directions and dosage. Can't help stupid people in any case.

thanks

I use Cytogainer...it's cheap (when used with BOGO 50% off and GNC Gold card)...it's also effective...lots of good carbs and 10 grams creatine per serving.

I LOVE CYTOGAINER, but its not a 100% Whey and its a gainer, the best gainer I think. Chocolate mint cytogainer is the best shake I ever had. I am trying to find a place that gives bulk whey, . allthewhey.com has some good stuff, but the only flavor avail is strawberry, eh.

[nmartinez12443]

looks good shizz

what about the flavoring? how many packs should i get/how to use them?

 

[TizZle]

ON Gold standard. 5.15lb was around $45 from fitrx.

 

[nmartinez12443]

got you beat on that

supplementwarehouse has all (even natural) ON 5 pounders at 38 and the 10 pounder at 76, but I am really considering this whey isolate for 75, beats ON whey on all formats, but might be too good to be true.....

[nmartinez12443]

which one? was it good

 

[Capt.Jack Sparrow]

which one? was it good

ON 100% whey. double rich chocolate flavor. tasted very good.

One of the many benefits of have a brother in law who owns a nutrition store with his brother. I get everything for super cheap.

 

[nmartinez12443]

The Cytogainer product lists on the product container, front and center:
"100% Whey Protein sources."

QUOTE]


Uh, yeah it it. Its a gainer, hence the name cytoGAINER. Their whey is complete whey.
It's a "lean muscle maximizer." It doesn't advertise itself as a weightgainer... it's not filled with a ton of calories.[/

Body Fortress is the best protein ever lol.

You have so many great features in there it's crazy, even creatine. Plus you get 52 grams of protein per serving and if you do let's say one serving a day, that entire $15 can will last you about a month. You can't beat that. I've used protein shake powders in the past where the can only gets you to about 15 days of the month, has lesser grams of protein per serving, LESSER quality features, and COST about $40 which translates into about $80 a month for protein.

Body Fortress all the way, their creatine powder and NO2 like pills are great also!

 

[nmartinez12443]

I thought about this one, but passed

I have a bunch of whey left, but for anyone else. However, I don't like the carbs/high fructose cs it has. It has great reviews though.

That sh1t is fire - definitely my favorite. I also consume Syntha-6 before I go night night. Their strawberry milkshake is quite tasty.
