Protein...?

[Jpmwell]

I picked the 4lb tub of syntha isolate, costs me £45.99...which is funnily enough £5 cheaper than the ON, but the ON has 1lb more in the tub...however i based my buy on a few buyer reviews stating syntha is good also for cutting which i really like, i appreciate the help it narrowed my search a lot and i found syntha thanks dude

Hey guys, gonna ask a question you will all probably be sick of hearing but i want opinions for myself. Now I've debated with people for a while now and I've always stood by protein shakes and powders, but lately more and more people i speak to are saying that they've read somewhere that protein powders don't really do anything....anyone got any opinions on this as i know protein itself helps.
...but I'm looking to find out if I'm practically throwing my money away buying and trying new more expensive types or am i best to get protein from my diet?
Thanks for reading guys

I find it very useful for my situation and lifestyle and I digest whey isolate extremely well.

I agree anytime i have used protein shakes i notice improvement, but i wasnt sure if that was because i also improve my diet round about the time i get myself back into shape and buy protein and train hard again. The amount id need to spend on food to make up for a lack of protein shakes is probably the same and the shakes are easier, definitely the quicker option in my opinion.

If your trying to get cut without getting huge, I would think protein would be very important. Somebody trying to get huge should just eat everything in sight, but if your want to stay lean you have to be picky.

I'll keep that in mind, something i didnt know...i had always thought when cutting and getting lean meant cutting down on portions of everything but i will keep my protein intake up

Try and get lots of protein from natural sources, but it can be hard to get enough just through eating. Protein drinks are great way to help, especially if your in the hurry to get out the house or something.

It all depends on goals in terms of the effects of powders but i assure they are highly effective... Of course you dont ever want to be dependent upon them but they definitely have a good place in your diet and can be very beneficial... Keep in mind that there is a big difference in quality out there... There are different types that perform in different ways as well... Companies like ON make a very low quality powder... You tend to get what you pay for... Keep all this in mind... Isolates are the best right after a workout... Casein before bed and whey concentrate works well for meal replacement... They all serve a purpose and if utilized properly, are very effective...

ON might not be the highest quality but atleast its been tested 3rd party to show it has 80-90% of the protein it claims to have. Most companies are under 50% of what's claimed.

Hmmm then how would they still be in business without rectifying the problem? They would be sued and not just with civil penalties... Criminal false advertisement is present as well so without correction after such a violation there would be no such companies

I had a friend throughout college. He was retarded... He called himself "All Natural" because he did not take protein powders. He was Lithuanian and a lot stronger then me with his genetic build.

Difference was He prolly ate 85 grams of protein a day and never had a shake.

I had about 180 grams of protein a day including 2 shakes and I outgrew him within the 1st year of knowing him, haha. Protein is a staple. Without it you won't ever grow or repair your muscles.

Get some Whey or Whey Isolate without a doubt. Casein is great to.

A few I reccomend our nublend 7, n2bm whey, n2matrix and n2bulk.
