Whey Protein, who's your hookup?

Not that great. What's the selling point? It must taste like the breast of Athena.


Ah I see. Aimed at those who don't want anything derived from animals.

I can't speak to Dymatize, but MM is more costly than pretty much any other protein out there. MM's serving is 2 scoops Vs. 1 scoop for 99.9% of other proteins. I think it's one of the best tasting, but the 2 scoop serving size doesn't sit well with me. I've been using ON (several different types of their stuff) for a few years now and I love it.

I use ON too, it's the shiiiiiiiiiit.

Has anyone tried Hemp FORCE? The protein is derived from Hemp seeds, Joe Rogan always reps it on his podcast(granted that they pay him too). Seems pretty expensive as well.

The fact Joe Rogan reps it, makes me hate it straight away. He's an awful wanker.

So has anyone actually found any good and cheap protein?

Senseless, subjective question in a thread that is rife with subjective answers. Read some before you ask again.

Oh, and male ejaculate is free protein. How good it is depends on what he's had to eat or drink lately. How's that for an answer?
 
Sly mislabeling technique companies have been using. Haven't seen anyone of the mainstream brands get called out yet(ON, Gaspari, ect).

I've been very vocal about all the companies getting on this protein powder scam where they pad their formulas with glycine, glutamine, taurine, creatine; below is a prime example. Addition of those items are fine if they didn't calculate it as PROTEIN because according to FDA labelling laws, they should be whole proteins. Addition of these items also 'cheat' protein analysis tests into reporting a higher concentrate than actual, hence making all COA's moot.

Bust out your calc and see...how come i only get 19gm? Glycine is listed as an additional ingredient in the Ingredients list but its sneakily left out of the Amino Acid Profile. What we can deduce is there is actually only 19gm protein per serving, with around 6gm glycine, making a total of 25gm. But is that 25gm protein?? By that labelling technique, i can add 1oz glycine to supermarket 8oz chicken breast, and then label that package as 9oz chicken breast.

Wow. Where is that quote from, HC?
 
Well if semen is your post workout drink good on you. I'll just stick with chicken breast as suggested. I wasn't trying to be a smart ass. I just wanted to know if anyone had found any good deals for whey recently. Just looking for an update.

It was part of a discussion off another board, I'll try to see if I can find the original article that lead me to it. It was just about protein quantitative measuring methods. Spiking the protein with extra glycine/taurine reduces manufacturing costs and gives them some argument as to its benefits. That's why some companies don't list the amino acid profile.
 
Tried isopure but there was always something with the mixing that never sat right with me or my buddies. Could be that it sat around in the sun and heat at times of the desert

I could imagine taking supplements while deployed has to be hard, The heat makes you not want to eat regular food.
