Anyone recommend me what to buy for protein
Iv been wokring out for a while but never really took any proteins shakes ( just started to steal some off my brother recently )

Im currently about 120lb's(im light as helll) so u i want to put on some serious weight..

The protein my brother uses is not right for me apparently, he told me to look into some that give more calories? or something on that line.. (its probably because hes pretty fat and he's working out to slim/bulk/tone up)

Yes yes if ur goin to post and tell me to use the search thread please dont bother lol.. I have and reading all the random posts and shit is honestly pissing me off a little lol..

cant go wrong with optimum 100% whey, i use that stuff for years now , great stuff

Used this before, mixes well, tastes fine. I didn't get any gas from it either.

If you want to put on some serious weight. EAT MORE! Try to eat clean so you don't get fat in the process.

+1 on eating more if you want to gain weight
some good stuff to buy in bulk from costco off the top of my head: oatmeal, cottage cheese, chicken breasts, eggs, canned tuna/salmon, peanut butter

unless you get your lifting and your eating right, it will be inconsequential as to what protein shake you drink

hal0g0dv2 · 08-04-2009, 09:01 PM

whole wheat pasta and brown rice is good ,tons of carbs and calories fiber and protein

are you sure you wanna buy whey?

After surfing around the iron addicts forum (great forum, IA is extremely knowledgeable), IA has stated that whey is pretty much useless except PWO and even then isn't exactly necessary.

You're better off with a mix of whey, egg, casein to slow down the absorption rate. that way you can use it effectively at ANY time of the day and it won't go to waste.

something like this I found was recommended

https://www.svncanada.com/cart_produ...?id=817&type=1

yea, if you want to gain mass and are looking for a protein mix you should be taking a supplement with decent ratio of calories to protein

eating real food for mass can be expensive i suppose... i would only be taking some like the allmax quickmass if i'm too full to eat anything solid or for the convenience of it

otherwise i'd still down a whey protein shake during or immediately after my workout and eat lots of food for the rest of my nutrition

Get weight gainer, works whey better =)

That's addition to what you cant get from your foods. You can't just rely on weight gainer alone.....well you could, and you'll be broke haha.

RayBot · 08-05-2009, 05:43 PM

A manager friend had an extra 8lb tub of weight gainer, which is still pretty full. I'm not using it; i'm moving the other direction. PM me if you're interested in working out something if that may be something you might want.

hal0g0dv2 · 08-05-2009, 09:41 PM

haha cassein is what you take b4 bed or can not make a meal in, yuo should never take that stuff after you work out. it digest really slower the whole point of it, you want something quick then after that some carbs, but wtf do i know about cooking a shirt

ws6ta · 08-06-2009, 12:25 AM

cassein is thick and disgusting.

I took weight gainer for a while, it worked but thats all you do really. Gain weight. I had very little tone and basically just got bigger; especially around the mid section

But I did gain some weight, about 40 lbs or so.

But recently I decided to cut that out and go with a clean protein. I'd rather be leaner w/ a little bit of fat than fat with almost no tone.

You could take gainer, but maybe cut down the servings to half the size or something, however if you do that, you're also cutting down your protein intake.
Thats the problem with gainer. If you want the maximum protein, you're also taking in huge amounts of calories which is probably mostly sugar.

Like someone said earlier, if you take gainer, you'll probably be broke, and its true. The GOOD gainers with less sugar cost ALOT of money.

Yeah that was my goal at first too, but after a while I got tired of not having any definition. I'm sure you'll get there too

But in a way I guess it is better to have the fat, then turn it to muscle?
I dunno if it works that way

E=mc² · 08-06-2009, 08:27 PM

it doesn't
fat can't magically turn into muscle
and i cringe everytime I hear one of my friends say "im planning on eating a lot, gain some fat, then convert it into muscle"...
makes me wanna punch them in the face

Yeah, thats what I meant

E=mc² · 08-07-2009, 11:19 AM

I'm pretty sure no knowledgeable trainer/bb will advise you to specifically gain fat first...

that goes against the purpose of bodybuilding!
