[JSilver]

Just curious on what flavors you guys usually get?

So far I've tried Delicious Strawberry and Mocha Cappuccino.

[Drk]

Vanilla FTW

[Full`Throttle]

I personally like the mint chocolate

[Ch28]

Chocolate

I can't stand the vanilla flavour.

[Stevie P]

Cookies and cream or chocolate. Going to try chocolate mint next.

[SkinnyPupp]

I've tried many:

Double Chocolate: Great
Strawberry: Not very good
Banana: Not that great
Apple Pie: Gross
Pumpkin Pie: OK at first, got sick of it
Vanilla Chai: AWESOME
Orange Cream: AWESOME
Tropical Punch: VERY Good
Mocha Cappuccino: VERY Good
Rocky Road: Nasty
Cookies and Cream: Gross

[10051981]

cafe mocha
mint chocolate
banana nut (new fav)

[Volvo-brickster]

Double Chocolate always

[stealth604]

Delicious Strawberry

[BlackV62K2]

ON 100% vanilla is pretty bland.

[rickross888]

Double Chocolate is my favorite. I've also taken Vanilla, Cookies and Cream and Rocky Road and found them all to be alright as well.

[hal0g0dv2]

van chai is so GOOD

[RacePace]

yeah, I just got vanilla chai and it tastes like egg nog

[JSilver]

I guess 5lbs a Vanilla Chai is coming up! Thanks guys.

[Derek_N84]

I swear I'm the only weird one who thinks Vanilla tastes good but YES ! get the Vanilla Chai, ITS ORGASMIC ! as far as proteins go haha

[BlackV62K2]

I'm a vanilla guy myself too.

[rickross888]

hmm...guess i'll have to give vanilla chai a try after i finish my double chocolate since so many people here are recommending it.

[Marioo1991]

off topic, but does anyone know where to get a good deal on ON Whey? Last time I was at Popeyes, for the 5lb it was $70+tax!

[jas_daddy]

http://www.supplementscanada.com/popeyes/optimum.html

[s3an]

Double Rich Chocolate. Tastes very good compared to TrueProtein's Very Berry unsweetened flavour I'm drinking now.

[lacubrious1]

banana cream is the worst, i was so happy when i eventually finished it

[Khmai_fly_guy]

I get mine for 60 buck cash. No tax! :D

[r.attack]

whats the best place to buy a big tub?

[XxFcukxX]

whey gourmet banana and strawberry tastes disgusting

[hal0g0dv2]

it is hard to come across good deals on the 100% whey by optimum nutrition
so i switched it up so i could get more for my money

Where at? share the info! :thumbsup:

I find that Fuel or X Fuel by Boundary and Henning drive (near Brian Jessel) gives me a much better price compared to Popeye's, at least 10-20 bucks.

Keep in mind i have not personally tried ON before or bought it there, once im done my with mine (IsoFlex), Im going to get ON there.

If you check on svncanada.com, they have other locations but boundary was closest to me.

Questions guys: When some of you say that the Strawberry flavor is nasty/not good, do you mean:

a) it doesn't taste as good as other brand's strawberry flavor?
b) you dont like strawberry as much ?
c) it just taste un-strawberry like?

Coz im thinking of trying it out since my taste bud seems to prefer it (past 2 flavors from 2 diff brands were strawberry banana, and strawberry)

p.s: If i recall correctly Fuel allows you to exchange flavors if you find the taste to be horrendous. Either that or Popeye's, dont remember which exactly.

[XxFcukxX]

^

A) Strawberry in general isn't a good flavor to mix with milk or water because with milk , it tastes too artificial and with water it tastes even worse

B) I in fact really like strawberry flavor in tons of things , including strawberry milk or smoothies or anything like that , but this strawberry tastes like shit and you will get sick of it fast

C) Strawberry is pretty sour but the powder makes it all sweet and i'm not sure how to explain the taste but it's a challenge drinking the whole glass of it for me

But if you like strawberry flavor , don't take my word for it and go ahead and try it who knows if you might like it or not.

[BlackV62K2]

I agree that Strawberry or any fruit flavor protein shake is not going to taste as good as chocolate or vanilla. If you want a fruit tasting protein shake, get vanilla and blend real fruits in it. Probably even healthier and taste better.

[SkinnyPupp]

That's wrong. ON's strawberry may be horrible, but both Orange Cream and Tropical Punch are two of my favourite flavours they have.

Plus, ON Pro Complex in Strawberry is really good, especially in milk :)

[TracerFX]

Hmm... thanks for the input guys, I think once my IsoFlex is done, Im gonna change it up and get Tropical Punch flavor and see how it goes.

I just wonder why these Nutrition places dont employ a "flavor taste test" strategy. They can sacrifice a 2 lbs to let potential customers have the ability to test the flavors to see if they like that particular one. Using a shot glass size for the sampling wont hurt their bottom line one bit. Better customer service I'd say, but that's just me.

Bodybuilding.com sells a 2 lb multi-pack. It's only a bit more expensive than a single 2 lbs bucket.

[TracerFX]

The multi-pack is a pretty good idea, didn't occur to me lol

I dont really like ordering from US sites coz of duties/brokerage fees..

Do you have exp buying from them? If so, how much does those fees come out to for a 2 lbs or 5 lbs?

Damn, I checked their website and tried ordering a 5lbs + 19.99 for cad post shipping (their cheapest one), it totaled USD $63 (CAD $70 ish), that hasn't even included any potential taxes, duties, and 2.5% ish fees from credit card conversion charges..

It was 73 bucks from svncanada's website (with shipping and taxes). Could prolly get between 60-70 ish locally.

[SkinnyPupp]

I buy from them every single month. But I ship to Hong Kong, not Canada. Shipping is expensive as hell, but the stuff would easily cost 5X the price if I bought it here (if not more, and I mean that literally)

The best idea is to order when you have a bunch of shit to buy. I always buy a couple tubs of protein, along with my regular supplements.

I don't know what you mean by paying duties.. you don't pay duties on stuff like this.

[JSilver]

Coz im thinking of trying it out since my taste bud seems to prefer it (past 2 flavors from 2 diff brands were strawberry banana, and strawberry)

It just tastes so artificial. When I had my 5lbs of Strawberry, I just chugged it down as fast as I could so I wouldn't have to taste it.

If Vanilla Chai is as good as many people say, I might just stick with it, lol.

if you buy from bb and live in Canada they just ship it usps. THERE ARE NO DUTY'S
skinnypupp, thats fucked up how the prices of supps are 5x in hk

[SkinnyPupp]

Why do you think you see so many Hongers buy thousands of bottles of vitamins at Costco and health stores? I used to work at a nutrition store, and hongers were my favourite customers (except that they were so cheap, and always tried to bargain)

[Volvo-brickster]

is this stuff available anywhere locally :S ?

I'll check em out, thanks! :thumbsup:

[Ch28]

Amazon.com has the 10lbs Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey for $65 with the Subscribe & Save discount

http://www.amazon.com/Optimum-Nutrition-Standard-Instantized-Chocolate/dp/B000GIQT2O/ref=sr_1_2?ie=UTF8&s=hpc&qid=1243916640&sr=8-2

Amazon.com doesn't ship supplements to Canada so you're going to have to have it shipped to Blaine or Point Roberts and pick it up from there.

I think since whey is a consumable that there is no duties and no GST

[XxFcukxX]

GNC at metro 2lbs for 50$ i got double rich chocolate , tastes like nesquick

[j3d]

50 bucks for 2 lbs? For $60 plus tax you'll have a 5lb tub.

[rickross888]

wow $50 for 2lbs:eek:

[Alphamale]

GNC at metro 2lbs for 50$ i got double rich chocolate , tastes like nesquick

Fuel on Boundary $62 taxes in and you get 5lbs.

[XxFcukxX]

is that with any cards or deals or something? or just straight up $62 for 5 lbs

[Alphamale]

Straight up. No cards no nothing.

[XxFcukxX]

mother ****ing gnc.... should i just return the 2lbs ?

[Alphamale]

If you can, you should.

[Ch28]

Or you could go to the link I provided and get 10LBS for a little more.,

[Alphamale]

^See, but that requires:

a) Driving kinda far and other logistical complications (to varying degrees)
b) Putting money into the U.S. economy rather than developing relations and supporting local and Canadian business.

I'm all about cheap when and where ever possible (for an identical product), but if costs are roughly the same and you can get it NAO, I don't see a huge problem. However, I don't go through whey like a mother trucker so those who do may prefer to save a lot more money in the long run. Our proximity with the border is really a case of mixed-blessing for our local business and consumers.

[Derek_N84]

55 for a 5lb for me :)

[Alphamale]

^Want to tell us where and if there are stipulations?

[RacePace]

Both Reflex and Popeyes in Richmond usually have a higher sticker price than they usually charge for some reason. They always cut it down

[TracerFX]

[Volvo-brickster]

so reflex didnt have double chocolate so i figured i would try cookies and cream

DEAR GOD ITS FREAKING HORRIBLE !

i hate vanilla to no end and it tastes like vanilla.

cant get thru this 5 lb tub fast enough

[KJL]

is there a difference btwn vanilla ice cream and vanilla chai?

[SkinnyPupp]

Vanilla Chai tastes like the chai tea you get at Starbucks. It's fucking awesome.

[rickross888]

i still have to give vanilla chai a try. maybe after i finish my double chocolate. didn't find it last time i went to popeye's

[KJL]

how does vanilla ice cream taste like?

[hal0g0dv2]

the chai is the best, vanilla is pretty generic

[Meowjin]

i like the cookies and cream :(

ON mixes so easy, you can do it with a cup and spoon

can other protein mixes do that ?

[RRxtar]

no, i will admit, the stuff i use mixes like shit with a spoon and tastes pretty bland. but i usually blend it with fruit so it mixes very well and tastes great. and even when i do just make a quick drink without the blender, its not that bad. hell, its not a fancy latte its a fuckin protein shake.

and skinny its a blend (isolate and concentrate). ON is as well. ON might have a few more BCAA's and might be an ever so slightly better grade of whey but honestly, If the stuff I take is 85% of ON for less than half the price, Ill keep using it.

and as for 2kg being $40, why has everyone in this thread said its between $60 and $70 then?

I swear to god, aside from the taste and mixability, there cant be much difference between one brand of whey to another. Its all name brand marketting and ON has done a fantastic job of it by sponsoring various bodybuilding forums and getting people talking about it. I read one thread comparing my whey to ON and half the replies were "Ive never heard of that stuff, but ON is the most popular so its probably the best".

just like a 500mg extra strength tylenol is so much better than a 500mg generic pharmacy acetaminophen. Just like Eleiko plates will make you stronger than York plates.

you make good points

i used to get my protein from london drugs of all places about 3 years ago
$20 for 2.5 lbs i think?

i only started buying from reflex cause i know the owner

to be honest, couldn't tell you if i saw a difference or not

[Ch28]

were do u get it for 40 ?

amazon.com lol

bought 2 tubs of Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey, Double Rich Chocolate, 5.15-Pound Tub

http://www.amazon.com/Optimum-Nutrition-Standard-Chocolate-5-15-Pound/dp/B000QSNYGI/ref=sr_1_1?ie=UTF8&qid=1250234430&sr=8-1

15% off with subscribe and save + free shipping = $66.72 USD for 10.3 lbs

ordered yesterday and should be " Point Roberts by Monday :)

[SkinnyPupp]

Bodybuilding.com carries 5 lbs for $42 USD. Hell even in fucking Hong Kong I can get it for $39 USD now.

I have nothing against buying a cheaper product, if it is similar and tastes just as good. For me, ON was just another brand I tried, because all the others weren't satisfactory to me. I tried everything from EAS to Prolab to no-name brands. Then I came across ON, despite all the marketing, and finally found a whey that mixes good, has good ingredients, etc. So I stuck with it. Yes, a 5 lbs bucket is $10 more, but it's still worth it for me. As you said, the Costco stuff mixes like shit, and you probably have to use a blender and fill it with other stuff. With ON, I can just pour a glass of water, throw in a scoop, and stir it with a chopstick and chug it down. To me, that's worth the extra $3 a month/whatever.

But for other people, it may be worth saving the cash. I wouldn't hold it against them or advise them otherwise. But if someone asked what whey they should buy, I am still going to say ON.

[hal0g0dv2]

i get the elite one
buy one 49 get one 39 or something like that, it does hurt the wallet when threw them quick

[SkinnyPupp]

Don't rely too much on protein powders.. Try to get 1g per lbs bodyweight, with only 30 or 40g at most coming from powder.

Any strawberry protein shake is nasty. Although I heard Myofusion strawberry is actually pretty good. Stick with Vanilla or Chocolate for flavors to be safe.

[Beilei]

just picked up 5lbs ON Whey Double Chocolate for 60$ at Reflex. They only have Double chocolate, Vanilla Ice Cream, and Strawberry.

Where do you guys get the Mocha Cappuccino or Vanilla Chai locally? Really want to try those out

These stuff only requires one scoop?? Do you guys mix it with non-fat milk or just water?

my breakfast shake is 800 calories, and its just my cheap whey mixed with oatmeal and fruits with milk. and for $26 for a tub that lasts at least a month, oatmeal is CHEAP, peanut butter is cheap (good fat too) and frozen fruit isnt too bad

I say there is nothing wrong with getting weight-gainers. Most people like me are always on the run. They can put the amount they need in a shaker cup and just mix it with water whenever they need it. No mess, no hassle.

To nns: If you are a skinny guy, you do need a weight gainer to give you something to build upon. Once you have reach your ideal weight, switch to protein. ON protein will not help you gain weight, each serving has only 120 calories.

[hal0g0dv2]

^^^ u don't need a weight gainer for help man
just eat

[DC5-S]

yeah you def dont need weight gainer.. make 2 pb sandwitches with 1 tbsp pb on each bread.. that totals 800 cals right there

[SkinnyPupp]

Good to see some people cluing in that gorging yourself on corn starch isn't exactly the best way to "gain weight"

[RRxtar]

if you want go get all your calories from simple carbs like sugars and starch, go for a weight gainer. if you want to get your calories from complex carbs, protein, and good fats, make a proper shake or eat a meal.


dont have time to cook a meal on your afternoon break at work? prepare this in the morning and bring it to work: put a scoop of protein in a shaker cup and bring one of those 325ml bottles of milk to go and throw the milk in the cup when you want it. and have a PB+J on multigrain bread. good for 700cal and at least 50g of protein. and you can get the milk to go in like 8 flavors too

If you're looking for weightgainers, ON makes serious mass as well, which is their version of a weight gainer. So you'll be fine...


Side note about ON and why they are so popular.

As far as ON goes, I've tried about 30 differents brands of whey protein, and by far the best tasting is Optimum Nutrition 100% whey. I'm a picky motherfucker when it comes to protein shakes. I don't want to suck down chalk if I don't have to. Been drinking their double chocolate for about 6 years now (and yes I do get sick of it...)

[KO7]

Vanilla Chai is very good.

double chocolate mixed with a banana and two ice cubes is hella good!! It tastes 95% like Starbucks banana chocolate Vivano.
No regrets of buying ON, doesn't give you a bad stomach and mixes really really well.

[Wilso09]

I got my Vanilla Chai from Popeye's a lil' while back. It's AWSOME, however, I'm starting to get stick of the taste. It's not like a "normal" flavor that you can have everyday and not really get tired of it. (for me at least).

Anyone tried the ON 2:1:1 recovery in chocolate? I LOVE IT! Crave it after every workout! Anyone know if the ON double chocolate flavor protein tastes the same?

I have double rich chocolate. I mix it with a tsp of natural peanut butter and water, and eat it with my banana ^^

[MaximalLazy]

Has anybody tried AllMax's Isoflex?

Any comments? http://blog.fightpassport.com.s43331.gridserver.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/06/isoflex-2.jpg

I used the strawberry flavor before. GREAT taste, has lil' strawberry bits in it too, kinda like the Special K Berry cereal. Good quality whey, cheaper than ON aswell.

[Mugen EvOlutioN]

i prefer the chocolate, strawberry tasted really artificial to me

[DavidNguyen]

why do so many people like this ON stuff?

[SkinnyPupp]

Tastes good, mixes great, reasonably priced, good quality protein, good ingredient profile. What's there not to like?

[chipmunk604]

what skinnypupp said.

easy for me to down it after a workout without the puking feeling. its also easy on my stomach and i dont feel bloated/gassy.

[RCubed]

Chai Latte is awesome

i've tried this stuff. currently on my second 5 pounder of chocolate..
i prefer it over the ON Chocolate. i find it doesnt have a weird after taste like ON does. my buddy says its a very good protein for your buck.

[MaximalLazy]

Yeah, I am on my first 2lb of chocolate. And the taste is amazing, it actually tastes great.

I've always wanted to try ON's products, but I don't find the need to change =\

[DavidNguyen]

maybe u should give ON a try. u'll probably love it
i also tried BSN syntha-6. man best tasting protein ever. taste like mcdonalds milkshake. but the nutrients aren't as good for the price

[incubus]

hows this compared to champion nutrition

[illicitstylz]

second time ordering from allstarhealth.com

Optimum Nutrition
100% Whey Protein - Gold Standard

Double Chocolateeeeeee only 38.95 +$6 shipping as well, much cheaper still.

[incubus]

[SkinnyPupp]

BTW I just got an email from bb.com that they lowered their shipping prices to Canada. By how much, I'm not sure. Go check it out!

[FAWKER]

I tried Tropical Punch and its not that great, taste like fluoride after the dentist with an after taste. It doesn't seem to mix as good as the other flavors I've tried.

So far I like Vanilla Chai and Double Chocolate

[Jer3]

i've had like 4 or 5 different tubs. i'm on a tub of vanillla ice cream right now which is actually not bad at all. i liked double chocolate and mint chocolate personally though.

[illicitstylz]

double chocolate + a banana is best

[sahota_187]

chocolate is always the best..no matter what brand..

worst flavor ive tried was cinnomen oatmeal lol

[AutozamAZ-3]

Not going to lie... I puked with tropical punch. It was alright with water.. But with milk.. Holy shit. Never haven't happened to me before.
I've pretty much tried every flavour but cookies n cream and vanilla are my favorite for sure. Most people do well with natural flavours. ON makes great whey flavours. I have to say even better than pvl whey gourmet even with all their flavours lol.

[ShadowBun]

[chin3se604]

isoflex flavours are absolutely the best!

[asahai69]

i think whey gourmet tastes the best. but i use isoflex because its the best bang for the buck and it dosent taste bad either.

[Not really racist!]

Jesus Christ.

The Reflex Fitness site SUCKS for finding actual locations..

I'm googlemaping the addresses and I don't see SHIT.

Anybody know where I can find a Reflex in Burnaby and Vancouver or Richmond (Besides the one on Bridgeport)

i believe theres a reflex along bridgeport near ikea and another one by the oval/fitness world area? don't quote me on that but i'm sure i've driven past both of them before.

[Jer3]

in all honesty, i'd say just buy from bodybuilding. if you order from other US sites, you'll probably be paying taxes anyways if its going through USPS. save yourself the trouble and throw a few more things into your cart (glutamine, zma, bcaa, a preworkout, anything) and make the shipping worth it. in the end, with the current exchange rate, you'll still be paying what...$55 after conversion for a tub of ON which is still better than buying it from popeyes

[hal0g0dv2]

true protein has great deals on protein

[Jer3]

true protein has great deals on protein

[Beilei]

where can I buy this?
http://healthsupplementsreviewed.com/wp-content/uploads/2010/07/casein-protein.jpeg

[chin3se604]

any supplement store
popeyes, gnc,reflex etc

on online supplement store

[nns]

I wouldn't say ANY. I was at Popeyes Richmond a few weeks ago and they didn't have any on their shelves.

[Meowjin]

if anyone needs anything 60-70% off, i have a shitload of stock to sell.

Nothing expired, legit. Just a business shutdown./

[BlackV62K2]

I usually just get my ON whey from bb.com. $45 + 10% off coupon code. Local stores is a rip-off.

[JSilver]

XFuel has the best prices compared to any of the supplement stores I have been to IF your looking to purchase locally. Usually pick up my 5lbs ON Whey for about $60.00 whereas BB.com is $44.99+$10.00 shipping. Ordering off BB.com is only worth it if your ordering a tub load of shit.

[WHEYsted]

Has anyone tried ON Hydro Whey? I'm on that stuff right now velocity vanilla tastes so good... FYI it's like 5lbs for $90 here at GNC but only $60 down in the states...

[DemonsBlood]

Been testing out the various flavors in the 2 pound tubs instead of going for a single 5 pound tub for the same price. I lose a pound of protein but get to taste a couple.

French Vanilla Cream: 6/10
Tastes kind of bland and for me it got bad really quick. Offers the largest amount of servings per pound I think.

Extreme Milk Chocolate: 9.5/10
Tastes GREAT, like a mix between hot chocolate and chocolate milk. Never (haven't) gotten tired of it yet. Best of the bunch so far.

Mint Chocolate: 8/10
Tastes alright, the flavor is sort of washed out, it may be the amount of water I put in. Hast a slight hint of mint taste to mix it up a bit. Not bad but not great.

WANT TO TRY: Cookies N Cream, Rocky Road, Double Rich Chocolate.

[Nsane]

I mix my Cookies N Cream with milk. Fucking delicious.

[JSilver]

Double Rich Chocolate is solid.

Been buying that flavor for almost 2 years now.
