Title: this just in syntha 6 sucks.
Post by: funk51 on May 20, 2010, 02:58:48 PM
 i was watching one of those rx muscle videos on youtubey and they had a taste test between all the popular brands musclemilk metrx eas etc syntha 6 won by a large margin. i drank some of this horseshit and it tasted like dishwater. if you want protein with taste get the new gatorade shit. it taste too good to be any good but at least it taste good and matches up protein wise.

what's in the Gatorade protein powder, as i couldn't find any info on it.

The Gatorade brand probably tastes good because the are trying to sell it to the masses, and it's loaded with carbs.

Of course Syntha 6 is going to win taste tests. Almost half of the bucket of "protein powder" is carbs and fat.

I took Syntha 6 3x a day and didn't really get any bigger?
My buddy only ate chicken and grew like a weed.
How is this possible BSN!!!

I thought it tasted great.  Whenever a protein powder tastes that good I question if the ingredient listing is hiding anything - how can a protein powder be that smooth?  ???

To read my review, go to Bodybuilding Pro.com -> Supplement Reviews.

There are also two separate reviews which were submitted by independent reviewers.

I’m not so crazy about the chocolate, although I thought the vanilla is very good.
Syntha-6 is the only vanilla flavored powder I’ve tried and liked enough to buy again.

As far as price, shop around.
I’ve gotten Syntha-6 for cheaper than Pro-Complex.

That's really one of the worst protein powders on the market, a shame for such a "big" company.

No wonder Trey Brewer, Ronnie Coleman and Dennis Wolf all ended up looking like shit after taking BSN products.

I'm sure he would have gotten huge if he also took Endorush and NO-Xplode. Remember, supplements work, people don't.

Whoever says syntha 6 is bad is plain retarded! I have been taking it for years with great results, have many clients taking it with amazing results, maybe you should look at what it actually containts, fats? mct oil that are good for your metabolism, and fiber, you idiots think you get better results from other protein supps? its how you eat on a regular basis and how you train that ends up being the main factor, syntha 6 is just an addition!  by far the best tasting powder on the market today! i tried many! personal opinion ofcourse, and i am sure plenty of people would back me up on this!

IT IS NOT A FUCKING PROTEIN POWDER!  once you add all of that fat and carbs it ceases to be a protein powder and is not just shit, pure shit for you.  Mark it up as a sub par meal replacement.
Title: Re: this just in syntha 6 sucks.
Post by: dawakaman on May 21, 2010, 01:26:54 PM
each serving gives you 22 grams of protein, 6 grams of fat and 14 grams of carbs...Rediculous!
I tried it, it tasted decent, but the nutritional profile is just silly.

Peace

This was what I was going to say - once things get padded out with fillers (i.e., carbs and fat, it ceases to become a protein powder and is nothing more than an MRP.

If you want protein powder in its purest form, just buy some whey isolate (or even concentrate) from the usual places. No disrespect to Bob or BSN, but there's no need to buy branded stuff from the big supplement companies all the time.

I like the Moccachino, taste pretty good. It's got carbs so just watch how/when you take it.

No offense taken...Bottom line is, anyone with half a brain can just simply adjust their OVERALL intake if having LESS carbs is that much of a concern...useable fats is reccomended.

One thing I know for sure....supps that taste like ass isnt likely to get used anyway.

  How many weeks in your life did you spend eating unseasoned whitefish, cold ass chicken breast cube from a cooler, asparagus and broccoli? There isn't a single isolate that taste remotely passable but people buy it. all people that bodybuild, even as a hobby, care about is the nutrition facts
