Alex Long8 said:At least you actually bothered to look into what casein and all that other junk is.
Microsoft is one of those brands that hits the sweet spot between price and quality. If you want it cheaper, you can grab a smaller tub, or just wait a month or two until I place an order with a group from another forum—we usually manage to snag a 20% discount.
It comes with a 30g scoop inside, so you don't have to waste time doing math every time you eat.
If you really want to stretch your dollar, try taking just half a scoop on days when you've already hit your protein goals through solid food.
Sometimes you can just swap the casein for low-fat cottage cheese. About 200g of cottage cheese is roughly one scoop. The taste is pretty gross, but swapping it out once or twice a week isn't a bad idea. You can mix stuff into the cottage cheese to make it tolerable; there are plenty of recipes out there.
Ashley Perez50 said:I'm here too. 😁 I don't really know what I'm talking about here. I haven't read much on this topic, so my post is probably pretty basic.
I need some advice on protein supplements. Someone suggested casein, whey, or maybe egg protein to help me hit my daily goals since my current diet is seriously lacking in protein. I’m thinking about just shaking one up instead of having dinner on days when I can't manage a real meal. I want something with zero carbs—no glycemic spikes. I don't need this after training, since my post-workout meals are fine. This is strictly for those off-days when I'm busy. I'm not trying to bulk up or pack on extra mass; I just want to fix my protein intake.
It would be perfect if I didn't have to jump through hoops just to get my hands on it. Ideally, it’d actually taste good too, and serve as a decent meal replacement. 🙂 I get some less than ideal options too.
Sean Wood said:Hey, I have some questions about protein. I'm 14 years old, 5'9", built pretty solid, and weigh about 175 lbs. Would using protein supplements be good for me? I want to use them to LOSE weight (mostly belly fat) and build muscle (specifically my arms). Also, when should I take them? PLEASE ANSWER ASAP.🙏
Thanks in advance🙂👍

Where are you picking yours up, and what's the damage per pound?

Up until now, I’ve just been sticking to glucose powder in my intra-workout.
As far as I know, Maltodextrin is more of a daily carb. Since I need something in my intra-workout to spike insulin, I can't just ditch the glucose. I could always use honey or a banana like I have been, but honey isn't perfect since it's basically half glucose and half fructose. Whatever.
