What do you guys think about protein powders? Is there actually a benefit besides not having to eat as much? What kind do you use, and what should I look for?

just eat real food faggot
Grayson Brooks
Ok that’s what I thought
Carson Murphy
its not about not having to eat as much, its about making up the difference in protein you need vs what you get through food. say you weigh 170lbs and are cutting. you need to eat approx. 255 grams of protein a day, which is difficult to achieve when doing tdee-500cal since you are cutting. so you eat less tocut and consume say 100g of protein, and drink the other 155g, you get the needed protein and stay under tdee.
I suggest whey, the flavor is subjective, i like choccy ones
Joseph Ramirez
>you need to eat approx. 255 grams of protein a day
no you don't.
Mason Kelly
drinking 155g of whey is very bad for your kidney. And whey gets digested kinda quick compared to normal food.
Kayden Campbell
1,5 * weight in lbs is the suggested amount for cutting
Levi White
just random numbers to give an idea of what the point is, not an exact guide. of course you would eat more, 100 is just a nice number
also

Have anything to back it up that isn't from any body building sources or people that try to push protein supplements?
Camden Hernandez
1.5g per pound of lean body weight, buddeh. I think you fucked up.
Ryan Walker
Nutrabio master race.
No better protein right after a workout. Quickly absorbed, no 50Y and better than eating meat that will take a while to absorb. Outside of the anabolic window, just eat meat but for post workout, this is the ubermensch protein source.

Fucking retard

MyProtein or ON
Jose Green
I got some bio nut for you
*grabs dick*
Jace Carter
>back it up that isn't from any body building sources
where from then?
protein builds muscle, having lots of it while eating less cal than you use makes the body use the fat on you for energy.
read the sticky
Parker Allen
No brand protein. It's 78% protein and dirt cheap.
Camden Nguyen
How about this one? I've been using it for about a month.
Ethan Smith
>unflavored
why
Easton Reed
Unflavored protein only. What the fuck you need some chocolate fruit loop vanilla bullshit to satiate your raped and fucked tastebuds?
Evan Anderson
>not buying 10lb bags
You can get them for about 10-20% cheaper buying in bulk
Kayden Wright
1. You don't need that amount
2. Your body cannot absorb that amount in a day
Jace Scott
Unflavored because a lot of flavor additives have harmful shit in them; the flavorlessness doesn't bother me.
Also this type from this brand is only filtered so afaik no chemical processing (hydrolyzed, etc).
Jayden Thompson
An academic study?
Luke Wilson
>255g of protein a day
Julian Phillips
Unflavored has literally become my favorite flavor. Creamy smooth taste of clean protein. Can’t go back to that Amerifat tier choco shake garbage
Grayson Fisher
What's the problem? That's easy.
Ryan Thomas
> 255 grams of protein a day

Parker Wood

Isaiah Allen
myprotein smores flavor i likey
Jonathan Reyes
OP here
>255 g protein a day
Good luck with kidney failure
Jacob Price
Should I?
Kevin Adams
None of you fags even read the sticky.
Goal body weight = 1g per protein
You want to weigh 190? Eat 190g protein a day
You want to weigh 175? 175g protein
Its simple
Gabriel Diaz
Thanks for the suggestions everybody. A onions free, quality protein for a fair price is what I want. I’ll check out what everybody posted
Adam Fisher
>Goal body weight = 1g per protein
what
Robert Flores
no, there is a reason its so cheap. its shit. go on amazon and purchase a good tub, if you are not getting the good stuff, its not worth getting
Gabriel Hernandez
lmao i want to be 165 but i'm 180 so i'll eat less protein even though i'm on a cut, makes perfect sense right?
Grayson Wood
EAT ONE GRAM OF PROTEIN FOR EVERY POUND YOU WANT TO WEIGH, PER DAY. AKA WANT TO WEIGH 190 POUNDS, EAT 190 GRAMS
Wyatt Sullivan
Just buy whatever tastes ok and is cheapest, if you wanna gain weight and are a lazy faggot like me get one with oats in it.
Alexander Wood

Jeremiah Turner
>not reading the sticky
it says 1g per lb of body weight, not goal body weight.
Tyler Wood
>not buying unflavoured then mixing it with coffee for ultimate power
Andrew Morales
Grocery outlet sells shit for real cheap prices though
Camden Smith
Come on go-guys, you need your protein powders to gain muscle. You will never gain muscle by eating normally. Didn't you know the Roman's and Greeks took protein powder as well?
Lucas Bell
The fucking sticky says that for cutting you need to eat 1.5g protein per lb. Did you read it? That's where OP is gettin his number from.
That being said protein powders can be hard for your kidneys to process and can just end up getting you fat past the recommended serving sizes. I wouldn't drink more than 50g of protein shakes a day.
Nathaniel Reed
Adrian Davis
I’m pretty poor though and need whey to fill in as extra protein
I’m not gonna bring a five course meal to the gym, nigger
Cooper Walker
I just drink Whole Milk cause its way tastier than Shlomos protein powder
Asher Baker
Protein powder is for when you don't meet the right amount of protein but you ate (or will eat) all your meals for the day, not to save money. Go check out the sale section for meat if you want that.
I like dymatize and muscle feast
Jacob Gonzalez
They ate yoghurt you fucking idiot. That shit was literally full of whey. They didnt have the tech to make it into powder so they literally drank the whey in liquid form you dumbfuck
Jordan Perez
So you don't need this supplement bullshit and can just have a normal fucking diet.
Cooper Wright
35p for 23 grams of protein without additional fat or carbs added onto a good diet is better than just a diet. Just because you cant afford it.
Nathan Torres
i have some. tastes awful
Dominic Hill
ive been having great results with it. i think it is specially helpful for people who eat a lot and dont get fat
Ian Scott
actually 3,2g/kg is better
Henry Sullivan
how's muscle milk? am i retarded?
Ethan Sanchez
Yes
Levi Jones
my favorite
and yours?
Brayden Gomez
Just bought cellucor peanutbutter and marshmallow whey its not bad ON is the best tho
Jason Carter
>Scooplet
Noah Moore
I drink one caseine protein shake just before sleep, helps to even out daily protein intake. No more processed protein through the day, then again it's only 160g of protein per day for me, so it's easy to reach with normal foods.
Isaac Carter
lollerskates
Easton Lewis
What do you guys think of mass gainer protein powder? My PT recommended it since I'm pretty lightweight and have trouble eating 3000 calories in a day without resorting to fast food.
