well i am just starting to get back into working out , i used to take protien shakes but never really liked them all that much , they tended to be chalky and not mix very well , i also didnt like the way they left me feeling bloated , i am just currious as to what you think may be the top three whey supplements , i am hopeing things have improved in the last couple of years

Im not sure how long its been since you had your last shake, but times have certainly changed in the whey protein department. You most likely need an isolate, they tend to be less harsh on the stomach and bloating, my personal preference is Syntrax's Nectar. Others such as Substance WPI taste great and is an isolat as well. Finally, as always, I recommend Optimums 100% whey. Its a whey/concentrate blend, but I find it easy on the stomach and its probably the best tasting on the market. -

I'll prly get some flack for saying this. But Whey Iso Burst from GNC is a good buy. It mixes well, vanilla isn't that bad for taste, but if your a serious athlete you eat for nutrition rather than taste. It is a bit more expensive but thats mainly because it is an isolate, better than the traditional concentrates which are harder to absorb and make for slower gains.Comment

:agree: There are many sources for equally good or even superior protein at much less cost! Why support ignorant chain stores that feed the misinformation of the masses of people trying to get in shape but being fed lies and half-truths?Originally posted by g-funkComment

That didn't take long. I was speaking on a nutritional level, not a capitalist.Comment

That product can be bought at other stores, not just GNC. That is what threw me off too.Originally posted by g-funkComment

No, mainly because its GNC and everything purchased there should come with some KY jelly to make things a little easier. GNC's mark-up on supplements should be against the law. Thats why GNC is a joke.Originally posted by g-funk

Please reference this complete fallacy, Im eager to see what peer review journal houses such horseshit.Comment

Where I'm from there isn't anyother supplement establishments. And with s&h it all ends up being the same price in the end. And disappoint me how?Comment

No. I ordered some EAS whey. With S&H it was more than my 42$ GNC.Comment

Well thats your other problem, people still use EAS? Interesting.Comment
