This is the 19823796th time i'm asking this..
-
Okay okay, I will be getting my protein supp about 3 weeks from now or so.
Just wanna know, what are the things to look out for? and which brand is good? how to use it? how long can it last?
my budget is $80+/- -
Since you had asked numerous time... why are you still posting???
-
can protein supplies be that cheap ? i dont think so
-
probably be getting at GNC Tampines for convenience
-
me just ordered a 5lbs ON strawberry cream golden standard whey from nutritionpark.com
inclusive of $7 delivery charge is $82.90
wonder how it will turn out.. btw, eagle, go msn at night. need to ask you for help. -
i am telling you 19823796th time that i don't know
-
good that you buy online..
abt 70 servings per tub..
drink it before workout and after, and before bed.. -
isn't that abit too much?Originally posted by MidnightK:good that you buy online..

x2. I only use it post work out. Other than that, not worth it. I already consume about 180 grams of protein from normal food.Originally posted by Agenda:isn't that abit too much? -
I've another way to use ON whey before sleeping
1/4 to 1/3 scoop + 400ml HL milk + 1~2 eggs
This is sort of copying the protein structure in VPX Zero Impact's MRP, such that the protein is released into your body throughout the night
And it is a much cheaper version; my recovery is slightly faster and I can quickly concentrate on my school work
Although some research do show that milk is not a very good protein source -
post workoutOriginally posted by Jem777:x2. I only use it post work out. Other than that, not worth it. I already consume about 180 grams of protein from normal food.
but useful only if you workout intense enough. Really intense I mean. -
Jem777,
its too much for you..
cause you consume like 180g of protein already..
but drinking before bed is good..
cause your body becomes catabolic when you sleep..
for agenda,
it's okay to take 3 times on a workout day, or else 2..
i only take 2 times..
i drink milk before working out.. -
Okay, maybe I should do 1/2 scoop post workout and 1/2 scoop before sleep?
Since I'm still in cutting phase and eagle said my intensity level still not very high yet -
workout not intense enough, extra protein will most likely be used as energy instead of 'repairing'
-
Why not just use casein powder instead?Originally posted by eagle:I've another way to use ON whey before sleeping

Too much? At a body weight of 196 lbs, my protein intake is less than what is recommended. How long would the protein help? Whey is synthesized by the body within 2 hours(might be faster but I can't remember). I don't take any meals directly before sleep, unless I'm cutting then I eat a tub of cottage cheese.Originally posted by MidnightK:Jem777,

I bust my ass every time I go, so nothing's wasted I guess.Originally posted by eagle:post workout

didn't buy mahOriginally posted by Jem777:Why not just use casein powder instead?
and milk got other vitamins and nutrients also And makes you feel fuller as a night time drink -
actually I thought recommended is 1g protein per g of lean body mass and not body weight... not sure abt that...Originally posted by Jem777:Too much?

Whey is synthesized within 1.5 ~ 2 hrs, you are definitely right
Could you list a sample workout/exercise week? So that we have more variety for people to refer to. Thanks!Originally posted by Jem777:I bust my ass every time I go, so nothing's wasted I guess. -
None. U can get by with just skim milk and eggs.
The main thing is with your training; compound exercises all the way.
Even at my current training, I wont do isolation exercises like bicep curl nor tricep extension.
Just squat, deadlift, military press, barbell row, bench press. -
i do biceps and triceps because I feel like my bench press is being limited by my triceps. Otherwise I also lazy to doOriginally posted by fishbuff:None. U can get by with just skim milk and eggs.

Haha I'm not so sure either. I've heard both, and varying amounts recommended, from 1/lbs to 2/lbs. I used to do a psuedo ripptoe but now I'm on a 4 day split.Originally posted by eagle:Could you list a sample workout/exercise week? So that we have more variety for people to refer to. Thanks!
