For the people who drinks milk, regardless of skim, low, etc.


"How much a day?"..... and the numbers represent what? Quarts? Glasses? Gallons?!?! LOL

I assume glasses.... I myself consume a gallon roughly every 2 days... And yes, its ALWAYS skim! All the protein, less fat! mmm mm mmmmmmm!!!!:squat:
 
I can't drink too much milk straight up or I get the bubbles, but I can take down a lot of milk if its with protein powder.

I am the opposite, I am ok with a bunch of milk by itself. But when I mix it with my whey, my stomach starts brewing.
 
it depends really...but recently i have about 3 cups on average a day
 
yeah I have had to cut out some supps recently. Whey is getting so expensive and BCAA's here in canada are crazy expensive. I stopped using ZMA just to cut costs a bit.
 
I'll drink about 3/4 pints on a good day, thats including one in my protien shake. I'll go for full fat for a treat now and then :P but usually its semi skimmed!
 
It depends on weather or not I am cutting or bulking. I just seem to hold on to the fat longer when I am cutting and drinking milk in my diet.

Bring on the milk if I am bulking!
 
yea def about 1/2 gallon a day being conservative its soooo good, but man its gotten expensive!(More than a gallon of gas)!!!
 
2-3 cups in the morning, 4 cups an hour before bed so i piss some of the water out before i sleep.
 
Raw grassfed milk is superior. I used to drink a lot when I could get it for $3/gal from a farmer I knew. Now that I'm in California it's legal in stores but it costs $16/gallon here and it's Holstein milk, which is lower quality than the Jersey cow milk I was used to for $3/gal in PA :(
 
BTW, I just hope you guys know milk causes a big increase in insulin levels, even though it's glycemic index is quite low. Not that it doesn't have its place...just a thought for guys taking it before bed.

There is an "Allowable amount of puss and blood" in milk.

That doesnt sound appetizing to me.
 
Milk is great for controlling body fat, I have started drinking it every day, I used to drink skim but now I drink lite milk which is a combination of skim and whole.

same way here too man. Bulking i will try and drink a gallon a day at the height of my stage (can't keep that up for more that 4 to 6 weeks though, due to cost) during a cut i'm lucky to finish a gallon in 7 days before it goes bad.....
 
A heads up - tried this Hood milk, called Calorie Countdown, and it's been ever so delicious. 90 calories per class, sporting a 5g fat/5g carg/8g protein breakdown. Of those 5g carbs, only 3g are sugars. Taste wise, absolutely great. The aftertaste is like milk chocolate icecream. In the event that there's a Big Y near you (grocery store in the North East), they currently are running a 2 for $5 sale until the end of the month if I remember correctly.

Here's a link with the ingredient label:

Hells yes, I love this stuff! They've got it at Walmart here where I'm at in IL. Good stuff, not real expensive either and PERFECT for cutting/low carb diets.

Animal fats boost testosterone, no?
 
I like milk, but i've heard from bodybuilding friends and a lot of studies that it isn't nearly as good or important as people think.

Yes its a good source of extra protein and calories, but i know lots of people that never drink milk, and others that swear by it. Depends on the person i suppose, also if you know how they make milk and what they do to it :O can be a bit scary.

I personally only drink milk on rare occasions because most of them seem loaded with sugar and i can get the things i need from milk easily from other foods.
 
Do you live in a rural area? I'd LOVE to be able to buy raw milk.

No, I am in Grand Rapids , MI. Not far from farms though. Many states have these cow share programs. There is a website Invalid Link Removed and it can help you locate a farm in your area. Raw milk is the best. I cannot even drink store milk anymore. :hammer:
 
gallon of skim every day on bulk........ lite occasionally although i can drink it skim i love my milk hehe... avoid excess milk on cuts though....
 
1/2 gallon raw milk daily. Tastes damn good, but it can get expensive....but hey its the price we all pay to get big.
