Oh yeah? back in my day we had to walk 6 miles uphill in the snow with no shoes to the local farm and milk the cows, then curdle and strain the milk just to get our whey.

when we were young they didn't HAVE whey protein!.......we had to eat raw eggs for our protein....and we got salmonella poisoning and threw our guts up every day.....and we'd fart ourselves out of the house, and had to sleep outside in the snow!...with no blanket or snuggie!!!

Wish I started lifting when I was 17... oh em gee I'm 197 now,
If I would've started back then could be in the mid 2s...

not necessarily....gains are not perpetual like that....and once you reach a certain genetic potential naturally you will need more and more roids to push the limits, not just PH's and natural stuff. You can do well naturally and with PH's....but not 5-9 and 250.

idk if your taking BCAAs, but the prices on those are about to go up as well. this has been expected for a long time now. i had a conversation with the owner of the supplement shop i go to a while back and he explained it all. something about the prices in China and something about cows. idk lol

yeah. once i hit my limit naturally, i will change my perspective on things and focus on being shredded.

[steppinRazor]

really the price on everything is going up..blame the oil companies.

i did however just buy 5 - 5lb jugs of myofusion for 30 bucks a pop. good stuff too, too bad they going to some probiotic bull****

[WARBIRDWS6]

that is exactly what happens, you have to start focusing on your conditioning, being as lean as possible....and you can always turn to the roids as well. Its an individual choice at that point. But the PH's and designers these days can help you push your "natural" limit although many will say that is not natural of course.....

Man I stopped taking protein powders for a while and got all my proteins from food and I actually made good gains. Go find yourself a whole-seller and buy your self 40lbs of 97% lean beef and have half a pound post workout

[Young Gotti]

yeah protein is going up, i stock up whenever i can find 5lbs under $30....maybe i'll go back to what my dad said he did as a kid.....his buddy and him used to go to the local parlor and drink milk shakes everyday haha

[MidwestBeast]

Nothing new about this. Wholesale prices have steadily been going up for a while and there's no sign of it changing. In fact, it will keep going up.

That's why I stock up during sales whenever I can and currently have probably close to 100lbs of protein hoarded away.

Watch for sales and get it whenever you can. I'd rely even more on whole food if it wasn't more expensive/less convenient. With whey prices climbing, though, opting for cans of tuna is gonna end up being cheaper, again, though.

[th3futur3]

Man I remember the days when 5 pounds was 24.99 at wal-mart.

[D3Baseball]

Yep, the days of cheap protein are over

It's always yummier to have some meat anyway, though!
