« on: June 27, 2008, 06:26:19 PM »

Torrent's formula is geared toward recovery and volumization.

It's loaded with:

20 grms hydro whey
8 grms leucine
7 grms of cell volumizers
3 grms creatine
a great carb blend (including waxy maize starch)

It was designed to take the guess work out of post workout nutrition. Instead of taking 5-6 different powders, mixing them and not tasting too good, you get an all in one powder that tastes great.

sounds like a great product, however only 20 grams of protein? don't you need to take somewhere in the vicinity of 40 up to 60grams after working out?

would universal torrent work if you added another 20 to 40 grams of protein powder (whether whey, casein,etc or a combination of proteins) to it?

i like to take around 50g whey isolate about 20-30 minutes after the torrent

I personally loved it (I got a jug as a sample). However, because of it's price I'd wouldn't buy it.

You should always follow Torrent with a meal within 45 min - 1hour. You don't need a lot of protein to get the ball rolling toward recovery and Torrent uses hydro whey which in theory is used more efficiently than regular protein.

nah, it just digests quicker. well, it doesnt reall digest at all. thats whyat "hydrosylate" means..its borken down and pre digested.

the creatine and key amino acids and whey in the torrent is good stuff.

fuck that waxy maize.

ill wait till i get home and eat some oatmeal. thats much more pleasing to my pallet and does much more to satiate me.

torrent is over priced as well.

torrent is over priced as well.

It depends on what your comparing it to. Food?

If you bought all the ingredients in Torrent it comes out to be about the same price, if your comparing it to other pre made post workout formulas it's competitively priced and even lower than most.

I'd doubt that but I could be wrong. I've made my own "pump" products for super cheap before.

Maybe I'm just cheap but bbing.com have it listed for a little over two bucks a serving. That would probably last me (& most three weeks) if they used it as directed.
