how many lbs of muscle did I gain off of powder... hmmm... let's see... EVERY SINGLE FUCKING LB is the result of my diet, which in a large part corresponds to the number of grams of protein I take in daily... if you can get 300+ g of protein a day from solid sources, then go for it buddy... but for some of us that is both expensive and unfeasible... so we chose protein... it's the building block of every ounce of your muscle buddy, so give it a break... it'll work as long as you want it to work, that means with proper training, proper diet, proper rest, and proper recovery... you can take all the roids in the world but without an ounce of protein you ain't gonna build an ounce of muscle.
