Title: Wheybolic EXTREMEEEE by GNC
Post by: madfox on December 01, 2008, 04:58:48 PM: I'm a big ON 100% Whey fan, but I decided to try this wheybolic extreme by GNC (I know, the name is ridiculous and GNC sucks),but I thought it was an excellent recovery product. Does anyone else have experience with this product?

Agreed. Shit you can get leucine for about 12-15 bucks a pound & get about 90 5 gram servings.

Just wait for the markdowns and the price will be just fine. In fact, I just got its counterpart, Mega MRP Extreme (A protein-blend MRP with 6.2 grams of leucine) for $9 and change (reduced price of $11.50 minus the Gold Card discount).

I've never cared for creatine. Any kind seems to tear my stomach up.

Post by: littlechris on December 04, 2008, 08:13:33 PM: the wheybolic is probably the most delicious protein ive tried (chocolate flavor). it is whey isolate and also has 8 grams of leucine. the label is misleading as it says glutamic acid is the same as glutamine. makes you wonder about everything else on the label. also has 60 grams of protein an a total of 310 calories
