whats the best lowest fat protein to use while cutting? dont say lg sciences liptropic it taste like sand....im lookin for generally good taste, and not too much fat, im on syntha-6 now
 
Check up on protein factory. So far I have not found better quality and better pricing than them. For the record I enjoyed LG sconce protein very much. Just saying.
 
Well, the cleanest protein source would be hydrolysate. But the price tag is just horrible so its not worth it IMO. I like Myofusion and use it most of the time.
 
protein factory does look pretty solid, fair pricing, just dont know what to go with really.....the lipotropic i had when LG first released it i gave away after 2 shakes bc i couldnt drink it, and the guy i gave it to gave it away again bc he couldnt
 
gold standard tastes really good, not sure what ur price range is but i get a 10 pound bag every few months for between 80-100 bucks, best to shop around look at what sites have sales going on at the time, i tend to use boddybuilding.com and vitacost.com
 
has anyone seen any difference in fat loss while using protein with bcaas or bcaas on the side? or if youve seen differences in both which one worked better?
 
i dont think that bcaas directly relate to fat loss, i do know that bcaas help slow down the accumulation of fat cells on your body, but bcaas are gona help you recover more quickly from your workouts so you can hit it just as hard the next day with out your soreness holding you back
 
I like Trutein.

Where the hell did you get any of that horrible, horrible misinformation?!
 
im not able to post links so if you go to the anabolicminds main page and scroll down you will see the study saying bcaas slow fat growth
 
Are you trying to keep your carbs low? If so, Species Isolyze is pretty darn good in vanilla peanut butter. If carbs aren't a concern then trutein, Gaspari myofusion, or iforce protean (red velvet is awesome)
 
Look into Beverly International Ultimate Muscle Protein.

You will see minimal progress supplementing with BCAAs vs. not. It is going to be your ultimate overall caloric-intake/macros that determine the success of your cut.

They've had some quality control issues in the past. Maybe they've gotten it straightened out....

I felt the same way about lipotropic protein. I think you might be interested in VPX SRO protein. I like the Graham Cracker flavor and it has no carbs or fat.

surely not syntha, for cutting.
altho, a powder shouldn't be the thing you focus on when cutting.
much more important is your overall caloric intake, and macro ingestion.
ie - if the rest of your diet was suitable, then you could prolly use syntha in a cut just fine.

too much is made of specific brand when cutting.
simply look for one with low fat, low carbs, and quality protein complex.

again - kinda goes in line with above reply.
if you are using bcaas and the rest of your diet is in line, that's a great recipe for lean muscle building.

Bev is always a solid choice, great company.
just go ahead and shred your plans of a budget if contemplating utilizing their products.
 
I vote Isopure Whey Isolate (50 grams protein and no carbs or fat per 2 scoops).... also bulk Luecine. Both are low cal with no carbs or fat in them, just protein/BCAA, and the are the highest of quality. This should all be of concern if dieting/cutting...most of the "protein powders" have WAY too many carbs in them... Isopure is VERY expensive though, which is a drawback. I use it PWO only at 2 scoops (also 25g Leucine separately), then use something else on off days. Egg protein with no carbs added, or something comparable.
 
Is that American Pure Whey or something else? I ask because someone found that that brand of whey contained only 15% of advertised protein (LOL)...

i also read about that somewhere, their labeling didnt match their products

They used a bradford assay to measure protein amounts, and I know bradford assays are incredibly easy to conduct. I do them all the time, at least on a weekly basis.
 
ya, they say you get what you pay for, i mean looking at the label it looks ok but for a 10 pound bag for 60 bucks i kinda get the feeling something is not right with it, like i was buying some cheap protein from walmart lol

isopure is expensive, you are right..
however, not "best quality" by any means my friend.
old-school ion-exchange isolate has srs drawbacks. the bcaa content is high at the expense of nutritive properties of whey.
why they continue to try to price that powder high when it is produced with first generation technology is beyond me.

I agree.

Unless you are on a ketogenic diet, picking a protein based on a 2g carb variation is pretty dumb. I opt for blends, personally.
 
Protein factory.......the worst part is 10 dollar shipping...... everything else is great. Love the 1lb German whey protein for 7 bucks....

Some of the "protein powders" listed in here have an assload of carbs in them actually....I'll stick with isolate PWO anyway though....regardless of carb content

Are you lactose intolerant? I can't justify spending extra money on an isolate when blends are cheaper, taste better, and are likely superior to isolate for promoting a net anabolic environment.
 
Im going to be honest with the OP.

The answer is FOOD

Nothing satiates you like REAL FOOD

I gave up p-shakes awhile ago and never felt better and never lost an OUNCE of muscle.

I also switched from 275 grams of protein including shakes to 175-225 (depends on the day) of FOOD based and I look better, feel better and Im not getting scammed anymore either.

Im so done with the the hyped up P-shake marketing propaganda (AND the hyped up bro-science of needing ALL this protein to grow). It's ALL GARBAGE!

Look. even a cheap azz can of tuna only takes 10 second to inhale and virtually ALL protein so save me the "i want something fast business"

I got peeled for my summer vacation on lean meats and veggies with healthy fats. All real food.

MOST supps are over-rated

Good luck - just an OLD WISE vet trying to help you out

Yeah get bloated from most proteins....isolate and egg white protein seem to work better for me. But not sure why a whey blend is superior to isolate? this is news to me.

I didn't say a whey blend, rather a blend of different proteins (milk protein, whey, casein, egg, soy, etc).

If i had an appetite PWO? Or first thing in the morning ? Id agree with you and throw all those powders out the window lol....and oh yeah also if i was never in a hurry again...

Ok...i take the isolate PWO only on WO days only. Otherwise its whole food or egg protein in the morning in a rush...isolate seemed to be the best choice...good quality whey and fast acting.

The speed of action is irrelevant unless fasted for over 24 hours. There is no anabolic window.
 
american pure whey- they have a clean cheap whey isolate that i love
 
Precontest/cut I use ON Hydrowhey or Isopure.

Outside of precontest I use 100% whey, Intek evolution (blend) or whatever else I feel like trying.

Casien at night (always)

you really must have missed what i said in reply to you on p.1
imo, it doesn't get any cheaper than ion-exchange processing.

As in what product? what are you suggesting? i see more than half the posters agreeing on isopure
 
I just like getting bulk protein powder, normally whey, and also BCAA's. I think its great to up your protein intake and help hold muscle while cutting.
 
what i have been doing is drinking shakes for breakfast, and the only problem with tuna is the smell sticks around..i do some tuna at night or tuna sandwich if i dont have to taste for it, straight tuna for snacks....so really breakfast and dinner are covered but lunch is the only part of my diet that lacks....i may just start baking a ****ton of chicken on sunday and eating it for lunch
 
mr.cooper69 said:
As in isopure. He is correct, you are paying for an inferior processing method. Isology, isoflex, etc are all superior isolates.

Oh so you guys got a hard-on for natures best Isolate....why didn't you just say so? we could have avoided much of this rigamarole :D....when I said "highest quality" I meant 50% the isolate was of higher quality than random whey blends (you say NB isolate sucks, fair enough)....and 50% of it was the company and its quality, and my trust in the company. I trust NB 10X more than any of those other companies to adhere to the label claims since they have been around forever....perhaps i'll try one of the other companies that get good reviews in the near future? maybe. regardless, its 25g Leucine PWO and 50g Isolate 30-45 minutes later for me, whatever company :D
