Subject: RE: Protein shakes or drinks Not all protein powders are created equal. Some as you discovered taste so bad it'll make you gag. I've tried a bunch of different brands over the years, but once I discovered Optimum Nutrition's whey protein I've never looked back. When I finish a glass I crave more. And that's just mixed with water. x2. But I happen to like the Vanilla Ice Cream flavor. :D Right now I have Double Rich Chocolate, which I drink with vanilla soy milk. They have sooooo many flavors, it'd be hard to find one you don't like. I think you can order a taster set from their website too. I mix it concentrated. About 1 scoop to 4oz liquid. Get a shaker bottle, those help a ton. They have a whisk in there so when you shake it, it breaks up the clumps to make your drink nice and smooth. I do a protein drink after every workout and sometimes at night before bed if I ate a particularly low-protein dinner. |
