Look it up on YouTube at home. I can't believe it's a real excercise thing! O M

When choosing a PP select one that doesn't have added sugars. Isopure is a good one that doesn't have a bunch of junk in it. You can also get one called Whey Cool from Designs for Health (my personal favorite). BioChem is another good one that I have used with great results after working out.

You might want to look into a Soy Protein Powder as the latest I've been reading is that it's better for your body than Whey.

Whey for me. I have a bad reaction to too much soy...
I used to use IsoMax, but it got too expensive. We order the Gold Standard now. Maybe I'll look into some of those other ones...

I used to use Apex products when I was doing more weight lifting. Recently, I've been trying Advocare's meal replacement and energy drinks.

A Becka Marr sighting? No whey! Hi Becka - really nice to see you!!! I've been buying Optimum Nutrition protein at GNC and I really like it. It sits better on my stomach and seems to work well for me. This version has the BCAA's blended right in for me, so I don't have to buy those separate like I did before.

I use Optimum's Pro Complex blend. I like the BCAA's and the protein to calorie ratio. I order mine through bodybuilding.com though as they are MUCH cheaper than GNC.

Also, for those buying a new brand/kind, don't jump right into the big bulk option. Learned recently via the "hard way", you may not react positively to a new type and then will be saddled with a large tub of stuff that will make you sick. I'm going to attempt mixing it with something else to see if I can still use it, if my attempt to return it doesn't work out (don't expect it will with 2 weeks worth of it gone already). We'll see!
