Best Protein Shake?

[iPorn]

The knowledge in these people is really bad.

Ok protein powders/mass gainers are NOT magic pixie dust!

They increase your calorie intake that is it!

Either have a crappy protein shake or eat some food!

Your gains will be the same if you take protein powder or not aslong as you are in a calorie surplus!

Calorie surplus = Consuming more calories than you burn.

Mixes amazing and tastes amazing (for a shake)

Total Calories: 120
Protein: 24g
Total Carbohydrates: 3g
Sugars: 1g
Fat: 1g
Saturates: 0.5g
4g Glutamine
5.5g of BCAA

You understand BCAA is part of protein?
Anything containing protein (Just about every food) contains BCAAs.

You will never need to take a BCAA supplement unless you consume small amount of protein in your diet.

Hm they are selling Pro whey proteins in my gym, but I don't know if I should take suplements at my age(17) and if I can when should I drink the shake before or after workout?

It won't matter, protein powers contain exactly what food contains.
Although protein powers are not needed you can just eat food (y).

Using StarNutrition's Whey 80, 28 g protein per serving. Vanillia Pear flavor, mixing it with milk too get the best flavour out of it, i'd say 4 out of 5 possible from me, tho i bought the 4 kilo version, im pretty tired of it as of now...

Goes for 500 swedish kronor and that's around 60-70 $ i would presume, and that's for 4 kilos/9 lbs. :)

@kalinep, drinking whey is just like eating a beef, without the other good nutritions a beef consists of tho. Im drinking a shake per day after training as a small meal between my bigger meals just to fill my protein target every day, also protein will also remove your hunger in an effective way whilst you won't consume that many calories. :)
