The audio is terrible(i'm sorry), so just turn your speakers all the way up once it starts to sound muffled(about 20 seconds in).


Important parts that you may miss from the bad audio:

#1 - 8oz water
#2 - 2 full scoops of protein(40g protein)
#3 - 4 single shakes of the bottle.

I'm asking a serious question here...I think this is impressive. I'm curious to see how it stacks up against other protein powders out there.


Which protein do you use Rhadam? Can you show us a video of LG protein mixing? Just curious to see the differences.

Hmm, regardless, that's a pretty good accomplishment for 4 shakes. Will pass judgement once i see macros/profile and taste. I'm actually looking foreward to trying this protein.

Macros per scoop:

Protein: 20g
Fat: 4g
Carbs: 6.5g
Fiber: 1g
Net Carbs: 5g

All fats are MCT's.



taste cannot be compared to anything out there. whole new level :D

You shouldn't take my comments for anything other than what they are: a friendly punch to your kidney.

I rotate through XF UP, XF whey, Monster Milk, and the occasional Gaspari product. There's no real need to mention LG protein as it's horrible and thank God it was cast down in to the pits of Hell where it belongs.

Your product obviously is predominantly whey or else it wouldn't mix that fast, but that's fine. I'm more of a taste based user anyways. But from what inside knowledge i have of your product, i will buy it without tasting as i know who flavored it.

I wasn't offended in the least, just wanted to make sure you understood why I made the thread. I am a lot less confrontational here at AM because users don't tend to be such idiots :D

I wasn't inferring that LG protein was bad. I haven't tried it in like 3 years I don't think. Just know you rep for them, so figured you may have a better idea of how it does(or did) mix.

Who do you know that flavored this product?

please do! I suggest we keep the competition on even playing fields...

4oz water per 1 scoop protein powder
Single shakes of the shaker are to be done, not continuous up/down shaking

I know it may seem to be sacreligious to say this...



but it is a significant improvement over UP 2.0 in both macros and taste.


Yes I just made that claim.

You've never noticed a difference? I notice HUGE differences.


I hate when I get chunks of powder in my mouth or a ton of protein stuck to the glass. it's a waste and makes the consistency of the protein feel terrible in your mouth.

the only time i had chunks of protein, is when i used protein powder mixed into greek yogurt, but thats basically my own fault for not mixing the two and forgetting the next day.....i dunno maybe it's me, but protein is always the same, some thicker than other but never chunks

unless we're talking about caesin...that is pretty bad, but i still don't mind eating spoonfuls of powder chunks

I usually mix my protein in milk... .... but Im willing to post up a comparison... 4 oz to 1 scoop???


Im currently using GNC's higher line of protein cause a buddy of mine back in highschool is the area manager and hooks it up... tastes alright too (their standard lineup tastes like crap and mixes even worse)

Ill post up in a bit... youtube will take a second to upload out here...

Never had chunks either.

You should have poured that shaker out through a mesh strainer into that glass, so we could see how it really mixed!!

I have Trutein, up2, myofusion here, maybe I will try that. :)

ya do water though so its a fair comparison(although Protean mixes identical in milk/water). 1 scoop with only 4oz water

Well that will be the true test, as nothing really comes close to the flavor of XF UP 2.0. Your macros are already better than theirs, for the macro conscious. But touting macros is a joke since ANYTHING can be fit in, especially protein shakes lol. You won't have their 49% casein ratio as it wouldn't mix that easily/quickly. A comparison to XF UP 2.0 can be made, but a primarily whey based protein shouldn't be stacked up against a 51/49 whey/casein blend. But like i said earlier, if it tastes good i'll buy it.

Oh and the flavoring comment was because i remember Wanus talking about a possible well-known figure doing the flavoring.

I agree, Protean and UP 2.0 are very different products, and can only be compared on taste. They absolutely have a higher % of casein than we do, however ours is nothing to snuff at :)


Wanus must have mispoken...the person who helped me flavor this product is not known to anyone but me, the ceo of iForce, and the company we worked with. Sorry mang.

Ah then either he was trolling me or i was drinking.

Also, what is the serving size of your scoop? I'd do this with Monster Milk right now but it's 42 grams per serving, which obviously won't be what your serving size is. I can however increase the water ratio used to match your smaller serving.

I have not tried any Trutein flavors, nor do I plan to.
I love Trutein. You get what you pay for.

I use a blender for all my shakes but in the morning before work I mix 2 scoops with a large coffee. I'm still trying to find the best protein to mix with that. Truetein doesnt work so well and NutraPro is even worse. AmericanIso did well. Anyone else ever try this with something else and have success?

I agree...

I had yet to try my protein in water and just did after making my vid(which will be done uploading shortly) and it was far from pleasant... so weird cause its pretty decent in milk...

Ive yet to have a protein that can taste good in water.

You sir, are going to be blown away by Protean in water :D


awesome man! This is what I was hoping we could all have. I am impressed with how well it mixed, but it definitely not on par with Protean.

That happens most often with protein blends, namely casein, and when i add in bulk carbs. Havent really experienced it with the blender. I have had some bad experiences with chunkiness, all the sudden my shaker is a scene from Frank Herbert's Dune.
