Good Protien Shake?

[Legion Kreinak]

$27/container, 76 servings/container, 22g's of protien/serving... this sound good or... nah?

Anyone else got a better reommendation?

Save your money and make your own. Supplement companies target anyone to buy their products.

Here is a shake that I like to use:

2 cups skim milk
1 cup vanilla yogurt
1 banana
2 Tablespoons Canola Oil
2 Tablespoons of Malt

Of course, you can add anything you want.

 

[Legion Kreinak]

Yeah, but how many grams of protien is your shake made up of, and for all that stuff, doesn't it seem more costly to make your own...? And how many calories too. I mean, milk yeah, but a banana? Malt? Canola Oil? Yogurt? That's like 17g's of protine probably...

Louden, the problem with yours is post lift, or morning, that just isn't going to cut it. You need something that will be used within the window. Also, good luck getting 40-60 grams at one sitting with that stuff. Although, you'll be a lot more healthy than I am. You can buy decent quality whey for a good price now. I buy Optimum Nutrition's 100% whey. I think its 5 lbs for under $30


LK, it depends on the quality of the protein. What's in it??

It's that same one, 5lb $27 tub by Opt Nutrition, at www.dpsnutrition.com

Shit, I didn't know there was a doggy bag of Optimum. Where'd you find that JD?

I too use Opt's Pure Whey. Great stuff for post workout. Its Great price for a Great Protien. Optimum Nutrition BTW actually does all the manufacturing of their shit keeping their cost down.
