What is the best whey protein in nutrition and cost?

The one I used while I was in the military was Six Star Vanilla Whey…that was just a basic formula and it worked pretty well….tho the one I bought now that I’m home is a newer version that is called Six Star Professional Strength Whey Protein…so far its been pretty benificial…I passed my PT test which I had failed using it and training. Also, my chest siz has increased …and although I’ve been neglecting my abs for favor of upper body so I can get into Air Assault school, I can still see the faint outline of my abs… Like the other poster said it really doesn’t matter which you buy cuz protein is basically protein.

The price of the both Six Star proteins I had were no more than 15 dollars for 2lbs. Prolly the lowest price available.

I just bought ON 100% Whey Protein yesterday. The label says to take "one scoop" per serving. I’m not sure how much exactly one scoop is. The jar didn’t include a scoop either. I dug deep into the jar and even poured out all the powder. Still nothing. I would highly appreciate if I can get some reasonable answers. Thank you.
Thanks. But what would that one scoop be equal to? How many tablespoons/teaspoons?

If you are using a tablespoon, use two tablespoons:) Also, make sure you are consuming a high quality chemical free whey protein minus the fillers and additives.

I have BCAA amino acids which has 3 types of amino. My whey protein has however a wide array of aminos high quantity. So is the whey protein better?

If you are consuming a high quality chemical free whey protein minus the fillers and additives, than you will not need to consume both. Quality whey protein is far better.

I am 17 years old and i have been working out for about two months so im a beginner. I am active in high level soccer so i am constantly exercising, if that is relevant to this. My friend told me to start on a whey or whey isolate protein supplement and then get syntha-6. Is there a "best" or which is better for me in my situation?

Always go with a high quality chemical free whey protein minus the fillers and additives. There are some great whey products that are very inexpensive as well.

Can someone suggest me the best whey protein supplement of some reasonable price?

For all your supplement needs, go to bodybuilding.com

Their prices are guaranteed to be the best. I’ve wasted so much money at GNC…

To answer your question, go with Optimum Whey. It’s been voted and rated the best whey protein for several years, and the price isn’t bad. 30 bucks for a month-plus supply I believe.

P90x+ Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Protein or CytoSport Muscle Milk?

admin — Thu, 04 Mar 2010 19:57:30 +0000

Ok, I am 20yrs old, about 5′6 155 pounds and I am looking to gain maybe ten more pounds,but lean muscle with bigger arms,chest and a six pack. My question is which should i use while doing p90x, 100% whey protein or cyto sport muscle milk?

Note: trying to get lean, not huge

P90X is an athletic program more then a body building program. Because of this, a better choice would be a protein blend, such as CytoSport muscle milk. Fyi: the P90X recovery drink is also a protein blend, It’s just very much over-priced for what it is. it’s no more "magical" then any others.

Do you "need" it? Absolutely not – but it does help provide a fast absorbing nutritional "supplement" to your workouts and re-fuel glycogen stores. Supplement means, "in addition to REAL food". Shakes are not meal replacements.
Be sure to follow the nutrition program of P90x. The combined program (workout + nutrition) works. One without the other – does not!

some people told me that i am only wasting my money drinking these protein shakes, and that im actually making my body worse by taking them. im trying to build muscle mass and im lifting routinely every week, and also giving my body sufficient rest, and taking protein supplements, but some medical dude told me that it doesnt really help.

how much protein is necessary for a 180 lb man who wants to bulk up?

Absolutely not, but Whey protein is a high performance functional food that can definitely aid in recovery and improve your immune function. And if a muscle is stimulated properly, whey can help repair and build new muscle tissue.
