Combat Powder tastes great IMO. Mixes easily and doesn't cause upset stomach even with a double serving

Certain Syntrax Nectar flavours are the best you'll ever taste if you like fruit flavours, but it's expensive and kind of hard to get. Lemonade is the best, followed by grape and peach.

What's the hype on Quest bars ? They taste like crap, and won't do anything for you. Get off the wagon !

Isoflex. Or choose a protein powder with
no sugar, fat, and low calories. Look at the profile.

I'm a 10 year gym vet and i've tried everything and Isoflex is my go-to. Tastes amazing...if you get chocolate it has real chocolate chips in it (dark chocolate isn't too bad for you). Try it !

Notice they don't list anything about the real chocolate chips on the label...wouldn't those be sugar or calories

With our shitty dollar, ordering from true nutrition isn't as good as a buy anymore.

I've been suggested, Canadian Protein. Does anyone else have a comparable/alternative site? Perhaps, something even better in terms of buying bulk and stevia based flavouring.

im currently using supplementsource.ca and have had no complaints so far. Ordered from them 3 times now and occasionally they have deals for 10-20% off and if you order over 100$ shipping is free.

iherb.com is by far the best deal for me, shipping is rarely over $8 USD and it's DHL so here within 3 days. They also offer free shipping with SF Express but they suck, so it's worth the $8 to go with DHL.

I'm not sure how it is for Canadians compared to local, but for me it's great. Check it out

Just moved back, looking at getting some protein, probably get a small tub for the meantime and any good local places or sites to purchase from? I usually get the ON gold but have also heard good things about allmax

ON has the best protein, saw a few test results with different samples. Allmax isnt bad either

Im not a fan of ON (even though i use it right now), it has a sweetner that makes me want to puke afterwards compared to other brands. Isolate > concentrate for this situation (even tho i am not lactose intolerant)

costco protein quality isnt that great, saw a few test on kaizen and it is average

I swear by Carnivore line of protein. It's all beef, no whey, and I never feel any gut rot or upset stomachs. Flavor is great and mixes perfect. I usually get the MASS tub as it has BCAA's in it as well. If your experiencing gut rot I would highly suggest trying all beef and getting away from Whey.

http://ca.bodybuilding.com/store/mus...ivor-mass.html

I have a fruit and protein shake right when I wake up, then food for the rest of the day and a shake right after working out before my next meal.

Berz out.

Are you referring to the labdoor results? If so, couldn't find Kaizen on there.

Thanks Berz, I tried the arnold before and it was a beef protein as well, got it for free so I was trying it but then wasn't a huge fan. Definitely will take a look at this one.

The MusclePharm cookies and cream at costco for $40 has to be the best tasting protein powder I ever tasted. Solid 10/10 will buy 4 - 5 more.

Is MusclePharm better than new Kaizen, not talking about the taste but nutritional value.

has anyone here used HMB?

one of the coaches at my gym as recommend i take it (with creatine in a mix)

i'm looking to add mass, protein doesn't normally site well with me and the last time i just got bloated/fat, so i try something else

are BCAA's still the next recommended product to take?

we're doing about 4 work outs a week (crossfit) so i want to be able to take advantage and give my muscles what they need to grow and recover.

HMB is just a form of Leucine, just take leucine if you want

Protein doesn't make you bloated or fat. Are you trolling? Eat protein dude
