Question About Protein
 

I just bought whey protein (mutant mass) and was wondering when is a good time to drink it. I know its great in the mornings. But the thing is after my workout (Kickboxing) it takes roughly 30 mins for me to get home. would it still be efffective if i drank it 30 mins after or does it have to be immediate. As well does anyone know anything about the protein Mutant mass if it is good or not? the GNC clerk told me it was good just want to hear your thoughts and past experiences with it

Mutant mass is a gainer from PVL isnt it?
If you want post workout, you need whey isolate

stupid gnc clerk lied to me !!! its okay haha i need to gain some weight anyways

another gnc fail

yeah thats a mass gainer man that stuff has so much sugar

Ideally you want to take a post workout shake within 30 - 45 mins after your workout. I usually just bring a shaker bottle with whey isolate and just mix water into it right before my last few sets for the day and consume. I usually always eat a meal within 30mins after finishing my workout too.

IMO Mutant Mass is crap, and its a gainer. I alternate between ON 100% Whey and Allmax AllWhey every couple of days. I've had good results in the past with Nutrabolic's Anabolic Window if you want a post workout shake with more BCAAs & carbs than a pure whey isolate.

Are you trying to put on size right now?
If you are then just stick with that crap till you finish it. Then dont go back to GNC.
Where do you live?

I live really close to richmond like granville and south west marine drive. The thing is i work downtown robson and i work right across from GNC so its more like a convenience thing

Do you have any issues ordering online?

nope. no problem at all

how many grams of protein are you consuming per day?
and from what sources?

mutant mass will make u fat lol

lol yup, they lied to me too thats why now i do research then go pick up what i know i actually need not some guy/girl trying to sell me anything

like others have mentioned

just take it post work out (within 45 min)

in 90% of cases, i dont think you'll notice a difference in gains/performance between whey protein concentration and whey protein isolate.

just get a blend version.

if you have digestion issues with it, then isolate will be better.

OK, here is everything you need to know:
1) M.M. is a weight gainer that requires i think 4 scoops/day=1 serving. Your best bet, and best way to digest it, is take it 4 times a day. Our bodies cant digest that much protein in one sitting, so space it out. Aslo, it makes you really full, so this is another reason to space it out.
2) NEVER shop at GNC….especially for things like mutant mass. You probably over paid 30%.
3) That M.M. bag will only last you a couple of weeks, and you should start gaining weight after approx 10 days.
4) If you want just straight up protein to help repair your muscle and maybe get bigger, get normal Whey protein. If you are lactose intolerant, isolate is apparently better, and also digests better, but costs more.
5) Take it about 15-30 minutes after a work out ideally. But everyone takes protein at different times, some take it 2 times a day, in the after noon and after a workout, or after workout and at night etc.

wheres a good place to buy isolate online?

I would just stick to going to popeyes, the local store. They price match online sometimes if you ask, get free shit, and arnt the assholes at GNC.

I have looked around, and its really only worth buying online if you are willing to buy more than 5-6 lbs tub. In that case you can get some extra percentages..

Believe it or not though, amazon.com sometimes has good deals.
www.supplementscanada.com - popeye's online store
svncanada.com

usually the ones i check out

I usually buy from http://www.sndcanada.com/

most of the online stores right now have a deal on Allmax AllWhey, four 5lbs tubs for $139. I just got two 10lbs bags of ON 100% Gold Standard Whey, but that Allmax special is pretty good.

bodybuilding.com or t-nation
dolla is so balla right now

trueprotein.com

man up and just buy the 25 lb bags of unflavored protein.. haha
Funny thing is I did it once but I bought flavoring packs to add in by myself.. I ran out half ways through.. After a day or two of chugging back the unflavored I actually started to like it.. haha

ON is super expensive now! I remember years ago when they were about 43 for a 5lber from popeyes. Now they're trying to flip them for about 70

really there about 50ish online

Go to the store site at bodybuilding.com - No duties or extra taxes.

Even with the extra shipping, the prices come out to be cheaper thatn online Canadian Stores. Also, there are 10-15% coupon codes online you can use to offset the shipping cost.

Canadian online stores usually have them for around $55. Most do free shipping for orders over $100. Some have discounts depending how much you order....like 5% off if over $100 and 10% off if over $200.

I only buy from local stores if I'm in need, otherwise get your supps online. It's cheaper.

i can still get the ON 100%whey gold standard 5lbs for 38.95usd elsewhere lol
