whats a good protein supplement to bulk up - Page 2 - Ausbb

You've already said you have trouble with milk, BoyFromAus.

I would suggest that anyone who has trouble with milk will also have trouble with milk powder, and should not try it. Seems like common sense to me...?

500ml milk + 3 eggs + 100g skim milk powder gives you something like 75g protein, 85g carbs, 44g fat, and 1,000kcal. I drink half before and half after the workout. It tastes pretty sweet.

That sounds like an awesome breakfast shake, will give it a shot soon

tried that shake today,not bad at all kyle.you think i could have one for breakfast and then have another when i workout in the afternoon

I don't see why it'd do any harm. Just probably wouldn't do much good.

I've only bothered having it half immediately before and half immediately after a workout, though. They've found that the same shake at breakfast and dinner vs the same shake before and after workout, around the workout you actually get more growth out of it. Seems like there's a sort of window of opportunity there while your body's saying "fuuuuuuuuuuuu..."

But normal healthy food plus this shake before/after workout, that'll be more than enough protein, carbs, fat and overall calories to help build you up. More than that you'll just poo out, save your money to buy more plates or some coaching or something.

Tried it today but with a scoop of milo for a bit of flavour and it was good, might have to do it in the blender next time because the skim milk powder didnt mix too well.

If you are having milk trouble try Liddels or Zyomil by Pauls, full, low fat and skim in the Liddels and these are lactose free. Milo is sugar. Try a bulk powder or buy retail. In bulk i use Fitness Central WPI or retail you cant go past ON Gold Standard Whey or PVL Mutant Mass, other good ones are Platinum Muscle, Muscle Guage, Syn-Tec or Gen-Tec. From here you can add in whtever you like, banana's, extra amino's, glutamine, or have water and add ice, or even add carbs if you are bulking. I add whole eggs to mine.

No need for weight gainers man, just get some standard whey protein (concentrate is cheapest) and add some peanut butter or nuts, oats, fruit, anything like that to it and blend it up. At least then you know exactly what is going into it.
