More of a nutrition post then anything " but " we all know the need for protien while on cycle so i'll throw this one out here to those who benifit the most ..

I don't know about the rest of you but after years of swilling nasty thick milk mixtures of gunk like protien powders this stuff from PVL is a real welcome to the pallet ...

" Whey coolers " 100% whey isolate , 20 grams protein per serving , 0 fat , 1 gram carb , 20 mg potassium , 60 mg sodium .... thats it ! 84 cal

The one i had last night was " Lemon ice tea " ... you could not tell the different between it and say nestle ice tea ... disolved perfectly in water , no lumps .

nice refreshing drink right after a work out enroute home to make a meal .

Anyone else try this stuff ? you can type in PVL whey cooler in your search engine and you'll find the stuff everywhere

do you not mix any sort of carb in there? post-workout is when you most need some carbs to re-fuel
 
No .. i just found this stuff yesterday , local healthfood store gave me 6 sample packages so i threw one in my drink bottle and downed it after my workout .

Yes carbs are important as you stated ... Thought i'd throw this protein out there for those who have not seen it yet as an alturnitive to the nasty milk based sludge alot of us are use too ...

It's merits as a training aid are up in the air ... it tastes good , thats about all i can say at this point . Kind of looking for any other experiances with the same product :)

very cool - thanks! have you tried isopure before? if so, do they compare? they almost sound alike... I'll check it out
 
isopure .. no

This is the first time i've tryed anything thats not thick white powder disolved in milk

I do like using water , thats for sure

I'll have to check out isopure and maybe a few others ... i kinda got off the protein powder kick for awhile because it was getting sickening .

thanx for a second option
 
Isopure mixes like better than any protein that I have found. Kinda spendy tastes not bad either. I hate the sludge mixture with many proteins also. Here is a little tool that makes mixing a breeze with any protein. http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/vm/power.html
I don't think you are looking for advice on this but it is the best mixer out there I have found, so I thought I would share. It def makes a big differance when you are getting 3-4 protein shakes a day. Mixes 2-3 servings of protein with 10-16 oz of milk very nicely.

Thanks for the info on the whey cooler product. I will look it up soon after I get rid of a few 5 lb jugs calling my name. It is always nice to hear about good tasting products. They are making improvemants in that department, and it about damn time.
 
My favorite shake is as follows...MET-RX strawberry blended with water and ice to thicken it up and a banana..I actually enjoy drinking them and crave them. So delicious..try it.
 
I get all my protein from trueprotein.com. They have any kind of high quality protein you could need as well as many other supps and they are flavorless so you can mis them in whatever. Especially like the whey isolates, you can put them in whatever you want: i.e. crystal light or grape juice and stuff. I have a 5% discount code any of you guys can use if u want. PM me for it because I know how Elite is about posting anything that may compete with their sponsors.
 
OOOH tasty. I have added fruit in with a blender before. It does add a refreshing taste to a protein that you are downing 2-3 times daily. I will have to give the ice and a freuit a try. Protein smoothie. Since everyone has added their favorite protein, I will throw in mine. I go through about 5-7 pounds of protein per month. I often use this site to get new ideas for choices. But the best tasting protein that I have found is Dymatize nutrition's Elite Whey. They have exotic flavors like pina colada, butter cream toffee, cafe mocha and orange dream cicle. It only has one gram of sugar but tastes like much more, and no aspartame. It is the best tasting protein I have found in the last 10 yrs of bodybuilding I have found.
 
optimim is best by far.. Vanill or choc.. but i have to admit it has to blended in milk to completley avoid the gunky taste. And yeah it's a no go with water IMO.. Will look into that stuff tho thx..

Good point with the multi flavours ...

I was getting to the point of dreading the daily protien shake because it was a thick goo of milk that was like trying to swallow dough .... I even felt like shit after downing it .

This one i try'ed last night was just like drinking a glass of ice tea .. you would never know it had a lick of protein powder , well , at least not what i'm use too ... LOL

So the moral of todays story seems to be " vairiety is the spice of life " , i'm now looking forward to trying some of the suggestions on this thread ..

Thanx to all
 
If you use a blender and fat free milk or even skim it shouldn't taste that bad... After i down my daiky shake i have to say i feel full and great and not bloated...

yup good.... :p
 
I like the isopure proteinn and carbs ready made drinks, 40 grams protein 25 grams of carbs. I know its not enough but the shit tastes like gatoraid. downside is the $$
 
I dont know if you guys are into ebay. There are supplement stores on there, that can beat most net sites even after shipping. A lot offer name brands at great prices. I hope I don't piss mods off for promoting non sponsors.
 
I think this Whey Cooler is gonna be PERFECT for my Girlfriend.... She's a chick, and likes Fruity drinks over Milk type protein drinks.... Women are gonna love this stuff I think, and 20gms of protein is perfect for them.... Not a bad find bro.... Thanks

Damn that is an awesome find. You deserve some shiny green my friend. That is cool you can customize your protein. I will have to order after I get rid of 15 lbs. that I just ordered. I plan on adding a lot of carbs to shakes to make sure I get my needed level while at work. It is much easier to drink shake than eat a lot of carbs while minimizing time.
 
Yeah and they have great flavors as well. The green apple is awesome. Also since it's flavorless you can just throw it in some pudding, or pancake mix or whatever you want really. If you buy the quality stuff it is more expensive of course but most of the time when you buy in store you are getting a mix that is whey protein concentrate which I don't handle very well due to the lactose. That stuff on their site is only like a little over $3 a lb so you could make a mix of isolate and concentrate and still get the benefit of quality for a great price and maybe make it easier on your gut. Also nice to be able to build your own MRP formula and night time shakes with some slower acting stuff. I also use the waxy maize starch which is probably the best carbohydate you can take post-workout because it isn't just a simple sugar and it is actually absorbed faster than even dextrose. Like I said PM me for the discount code.

bro you have to try the metrx berry blast it rocks. i got metrx berry blast and a scoop of muscle milk vanilla. i drink a gatorade right after workout so i get my good sugars and don't go catabolic on the 20min drive from the gym. fuckiin big cities and traffic.
 
Hey guys .... now heres the worse protein ever

I got tin of " MOTHERS " hemp protein when it first hit the market place ...

Now the olny guys that will be able to relate are going to be the ones who have try'ed hemp protein ...

It's kinda like taking a handfull of grass and drying it out then chopping it nice and fine in a blender as you piss in there for moiture then throw a handfull of dirt in and grind till you you get the desired texture ... fucking gross stuff to say the least

You need to try more brands....

btw isopure tastes like cough syrup. i hope this shit your talking about is good

I actually had a old packet of isopure powder lying around.... it was orange creamsicle.... mixed it in some water as directed and it blended instantly.... was virtually clear...and it tasted pretty damn good.... not thick...not too sweet... I was pleasantly surprised
 
Anabolic12 said:
What do most of you mix with your shakes for added carbs?

I buy maltodextrin and dextrose.... and just mix it with whatever protein powder I happen to buy for the month.... works in a pinch as a post-workout shake.... otherwise I have a whey & egg white shake in the morning.... a muscle-milk shake pre-workout... and a whey/egg white/flax oil shake before bed....

The PVL whey isolate i had the other night tasted great .. it was the lemon ice tea one ... i know they have a host of other flavours but i can't comment on those yet ..

The package i got disolved in 20 OZ of water , you could'nt tell the difference between it and any ice tea mix you buy in the supermarket ... no floaties , no lumps and the consistancy stayed the same as water .

Tastes that good? And there is no sugar? Is there Splenda in it or something?
