QUOTE(arekey @ Oct 19 2009, 04:55 PM) Sorry, does mean to insult. sometimes these people anoying. Bro,am willing to explain a bit this time!100% gold whey is work too. Pro complex even better coz have blend of protien. Pro complex has whey and Egg albumen. means have multiple source of protien. plus high in amino. Even wonder why BB have egg on thier diet? Based on my experience, protien powder with egg ablumen work faster like weider megamass We prefer to get normal whey as its cheaper! Why? As you said egg is important,am a heavy egg eater and i know that,means that we already have egg in our diet. Essential amino acids are obtained from our diet and the non-essential ones the body can manufacture. Most of the regulars here already know this so why spend more on supplements?? Spend the extra money on natural food will be better! Megamass has too much carbs and not enough protein per scoop! |

QUOTE(4Rings @ Oct 19 2009, 05:51 PM) This thread is getting interesting. lol! Amen to that! LOL! ----- I recommend: Buying pure whey from 4Rings. or ON Whey. No need for fancy-pansy stuff like Pro Complex or Syntha6million or Appeton Weight Gain or Nucleartech or iamyuanwu-freaking-awesome-godzilla-whey. If I want a weight gainer: I just add glucose/maltodextrin/Vitargo into my whey, eat lots of bananas, eat lots of eggs. As for blends of egg albumin, egg yolk, whey isolates, whey concentrates, whey super-duper isolates etc... no need to bother lah. They all do the same thing: give you protein quick and easy. Oh, no need to bother with the amino acid sh!t. Protein IS amino acid. LOL! |

If Pro Complex works wonders you could post a pic of yourself? I might give it a shot if you were huge and ripped. Otherwise my preferences would be Dymatize Elite Whey or ON, they cost the same. Or if you on tight budget then I would suggest you contact pizzaboy's supplier or 4Rings.

relax guys, this is just some opinions la..results vary from each other..anyway, are u an expert in nutrient arkey?..anyway, all this supplements is all about money..mosy ppl can't afford..rather then buying supplements, ppl go for real food for growth..supplements, i think helps only a lil bit..is either u're going for ripped or going for size, i think it's solely on diet..that's all..have a look at Kevin Levrone..he's doing the natural way,and he grows due to proper food and training..which, i doubt most of us in here can achieve that..well except for kmaru coz he's a bodybuilder..he knows the way..
u can get the best brands or wat soever supplements u can get, but if u're real food is not quality one, i doubt u're gonna grow..hey, maybe it's just me, coz i take only protein and glutamine,but so far, my gf and frens says that i'm in better shape compare to last time, and i seriously think that it's down to my food intake.. and don't la condemn2 ppl arkey..we're her to juz share xperience and results..juz take it as it is la..relax bro.. |

actually not all whey are created equal. There are 2 types, whey protein isolate & whey protein concentrate. From my limited knowledge, whey protein isolate is more expensive. Not sure whether its better or not. On Whey is an example of whey protein isolate. For me, cost is important (since I take a lot of whey), so I am using Scivation Whey (10lbs for Rm300). Its whey protein concentrate. The only difference I find between ON & Scivation is that I get really thirsty after drinking ON whey. Other then that, haven't really noticed much difference. BTW anyone here using the whey 4Rings is selling? Price is really tempting

The difference of isolate and concentrate is the pureness of the whey in the raw material.
Isolates (of any protein e.g. whey, soy, egg) is more pure. Up to 97% (if I'm not mistaken). Concentrates are lower in purity. That means the raw material contains 85-90% of whey/soy/egg/etc. Manufacturers (ON, BSN, Muscletech, Amway, Nutrilite, etc) buy these WPI or WPC... then add in colourings, flavourings, carbs, etc. Then *poof*, you've got your product. It doesn't matter WPI or WPC they use. It's the protein content which matters. If a brand uses WPC but adds very little crap, you'll still get a good product with high protein %. If another brand uses WPI, but adds a tonne of carbs (which is dirt cheap), ash etc. Then you get lower protein %. <-- not so value for money. Probably the the artificial sweetener in ON Whey is causing the thirst. |

You think you know it all, but it's just your opinion...everyone has a right to their own opinion, however no one has a right to their own facts...so, let's just stop here and let others share their experiences in consuming proteins...
i think besides ON Gold Standard 100% Whey and Xtend Scivation, Dymatize Elite Whey looks promising...anybody has tried this ?? |

I tried ON's Pro Complex (due to the fact it was on a discount, if I remembered correctly), didn't really get any significant difference in terms of recovery and slower digestion of protein and so on, was hungry in a short while after taking it anyways.
Except it tasted better than the ON gold standard whey. |

Went back to regular ON Gold Standard Whey and some other brand whey which I can't remembered (when it was cheaper).
End results: better for my wallet. |

I rather just spend my money on normal whey and creatine. How big a difference would it make anyway? Using Dymatize Elite Whey now, about the same as ON only la. Berry Blast doesn't taste that good in water, but damn nice with milk/ soyabean.
