Protein Worth Fighting For: Banana Cream Combat

[Resolve]

There was much rejoicing in the Resolve/BW household on June 24th, because it was exactly 6 months to the day that our stint of waiting for our new, long-anticipated protein ended.

We had finally received our:

Banana Cream Combat

With 25g of Blended Protein per scoop for both rapid and elongated absorption , 10g extra free-form BCAAs and Glutamine, a digestive enzyme blend, 5g fiber and only 2g net CHO, this is the product with the formula to beat.

At least, so it would appear on paper - and that's where BabyWifer and I come in. We will be evaluating Combat over the next month and you can bet we'll really give it a thorough going-over.

We are real MP fans in this house - BW went into mourning the last time we ran out of Assault, and I am yet to find another pre-bed formula as comprehensive and effective as Bullet Proof. We're confident that Combat will prove to be as high of quality as MP other products, but that doesn't mean we won't do our best to remain objective and constructively critical (if necessary) in this log.

I will be using Combat post-workout and/or before bed, as I see fit. I'll comment on solubility, viscosity, taste, efficacy and whatever the hell strikes my fancy. BW will be using it like she uses all protein powders: as a lure to get me away from my graduate studies.

Nah, I'll just let her tell you how she plans to use it.

Thank you very much to TrueAthlete, Pmiller and MusclePharm for following through and presenting us with this opportunity. You guys have great timing - we are just about out of protein powder.

And thanks to all you who join in for the fun!

No worries; stuff happens in the supp industry that can't be avoided. It's hardly your fault. Combat got here, and that's all that matters!

Lookin' forward to my first scoop.

Hey everyone!

I will be using Combat through out the day when I have a sweet craving or I need some easily accessible protein to fill in my meal.

I've used a couple of scoops already, mixed into about 8 oz of whole milk. Banana cream is absolutely delicious! It doesn't have an overpowering artificial banana flavor. Someone has mentioned that it tastes exactly like Laffy Taffy, but I would have to say that it isn't quite as strong a flavor as the candy. This is definitely good with me. The subtle taste will make it an enjoyable treat any time and a flavor that my senses won't grow tired of.

So far the solubility is quite impressive. I mixed the Combat in a mug with a spoon, and the powder dissolved almost immediately. I think this protein powder mixes better than any other I have tried. A+ in this area!

Sounds good

So far Combat Powder is among the top 3 protein powders [formulations] that I've seen (I refuse to use any but the other 2) and I've been wanting to try it for some time now. Will definitely be getting some when I am in the US to use.

I don't think that you will be disappointed! LG's PB Lipotropic is absolutely amazing too, if you ever get a chance to try it out!

Yup, I will be using some of the new Lipotropic Protein flavours soon. Lipotropic Protein is one of the 2 protein powders that I WILL use (the other is the Leppin Sport protein range).

Today is our one-year anniversary!

We'll be celebrating all day!

Thanks!

Congrats

^^^ Time sure goes fast!

Well, after thoroughly enjoying humongous cheat meals yesterday, I'm settling down into a regressive ketogenic diet for the next month.

Combat comes in tonight as the mainstay of my last meal - I can't wait!

[babywifey]

I just mixed a scoop of Combat with 8 oz of water. The banana flavor is much stronger in water than in milk. It still tastes quite good, and it is creamier than I had expected it to be by itself. Some protein powders are not good at all with only water, but this banana tastes fine. I imagine it would be very yummy in oatmeal with berries.

Gracias my friend! I just can't believe how fast the year went by - or how much has changed in that time.

Last year, on June 28th, I weighed 217lb and was a staff scientist at a local manufacturer.

This year, I weighed 253 after yesterday's workout (a few BF% higher, but still a large gain of LBM), we're in TX and I'm in grad school.

...Not to mention BW's gotten exponentially sexier...
