Post by: wikkedonez on May 06, 2015, 02:34:25 PM
So after I workout I usually take Carnivor....yea I know ...so I'm on my last scoop so I bought MHP Isoprime Beef protein cause it was
on sale so I have the two jugs next to each other and I realize they
are BOTH manufactured in the same building in West Caldwell here in Jersey....they don't smell the same but I feel duped! !! >:(

Beef protein isolate is known to be tainted with nickel aluminum and chromium
It's all very low quality and one of the worse things to put in your body

All crapp, for both naturals and juiced.
3 meals with attention to protein plus one 40 grams protein post-workout shake, cheap casein is ok, and that is all you need.

If you wanna support the 2nd or 3rd house of the brand-owner, be my guest of course. It's your buck you wanna spill.
But 1,5 or 2 liters of lowfat milk a day will do exactly the same.....costs almost zero.

All supps are bull, except maybe creatine. All legal supps that is...

says Dr Dutch, the guy who knows.

every pound that you weigh methodology? ?

Protein Powder is the only supplement I use, sure I could just eat some meat or eggs instead, but it is the convenience I am after. I add protein powder to my oatmeal in the morning and whenever I make a fruit smoothie.  It is a good way to turn what would be a high carb meal into a more balanced one.

I use protein powder basically as a way to eat something semi tasty without blowing diet. Trutein makes this protein pudding that is fucking unreal.

Skim milk with a little chocolate powder is just as good as whey protein.  Why buy a 50 to 60 dollar tub of powdered cheese called whey when you can buy cheap, fresh skim milk?  I heard whey was a by product of cheese manufacturing that they use to throw away most of the time until it exploded as a supplement.

Many reasons. Convenience for one and the fact that the protein I buy (which isn't cheap stuff) is still .85/24g of protein which equals out to be about $4.50 when compared to the protein content in a really cheap gallon of skim milk which is $3+. I drink both, but a non-perishable product to take with you has its place unless you don't have a pot to piss in or a window to throw it out (which is probably the case for some getbiggers). Can't also forget about the carb content from the lactose in the 3 glasses of milk you have to drink to equal a scoop of protein and not to mention the shitty feeling of that sitting in your gut

Lactose free fat free milk is what I drink. Available in just about any super market and dirt cheap in Costco.

Why not use the milk? Not everyone wants all the carbs that comes with it, the water retention and so on.

You need to update you information bud. Bad info given here.

Any lactose free milk I see has 13g of carbs per 8g of protein. I eat 4000 calories a day, but for some poor sap dieting on 1800 calories, nobody would want say 24g of protein with 39g of carbs just from milk. Still not convenient compared to whey and is only slightly cheaper. I have money hence I like both. Whey is a life saver on trips and to help get my macros in without having to gorge down any more food than I already do

I've only ran one (400mg test/10 weeks+50mg var/4 weeks). Guess I'm a somewhat good responder. I've trained naturally for over 12 years though other than 2 junky prohormone cycles 6-7 years ago. I'm probably +1% body fat right now compared to the pic. It was taken about a month ago a month after PCT wrapped up. Pretty much did a recomp. Only gained  5-7 pounds or so, but knocked of a good amount of fat and have kept it off since.

I'm not concerned with some carbs in lactose free milk. I'm not a bodybuilder. I also don't mega dose on protein. If you're lifting and running 5 miles at a good clip the last thing you need is a low carb diet. I guess if you are juicing to pose in speedos you will mega dose on protein and eat a low carb diet. Still say lactose free skim milk is a great source of protein.
