hey guys, im new to bodybuilding. wanna ask something bout whey protein or something related to it.
few days ago i went to gnc to ask about muscletech, optimum whey 100%, the salesman not recommend me to eat both of these. because of i never eat any of whey protein before, so he recommended me to take the GNC amp xxx mass, it is including creatine, because im skinny gain the mass first after that only get muscletech-nitrotech pro series.
im wondering is it true for what he told me? and that GNC amp xxx mass cost rm27x if no mistaken for 2.7kg.

HIS MAIN INTENTION IS TO CON U.

Go and search in this forum, there a bunch of decent sellers.

So as for ur reference

Mass gainer = carbs + whey protein

Whey protein powder = Whey protein

do ur own research on creatine.

And those muscletech stuff is ridiculously over price, normal whey like Optimum nutrition, EAS, Scivation, dymatize and etc are awesome and its within an affordable price range. By the way, Rm270 u can add on Rm 10 - 30 to get scivation whey 10lbs tats twice the weight of ur amp xxx mass with half the price. Dont buy protein from GNC unless u can get 50% or more discount from them.

alright dude, for my weight 60kg and height 177cm, most important is im still a newbie never do any workout before and im skinny, seriously my body is hard to gain weight, my highest weight achieved was 63kg @_@, so which one suits me the best? should i go for whey protein powder, mass gainer, mass gainer+ creatine(buying separately or buy with including in the mass gainer), or whey protein with creatine/buy creatine separately? anyone pls give some comments which one fits me well. notworthy.gif

Yup they rite. You need extra calories to gain mass. Go for mass gainer instead of whey.
Look at the profile first and compare. Shoud have clean calories instead of loading with lot of sugar.
I recommend UN Real Gain + UN Creatine Monohydrate.
Take Creatine into your arsenal coz creatine is the effective supplement.

note taken, will do a survey bout it, thanks dude.
btw, UN stands for universal nutrition? the UN real gain + creatine will make me gain more mass only but not muscle rite? so how long does me has to take to gain the mass before i go into whey protein?

Mass gainer gives u extra calories and carbohydrate, which u can simply get it by eatting brown rice, pasta, sweet potato and etc (all the complex carbs) which is not that expensive. However whey only have Whey, minimal carbs and some bcaa.

If u would have ask me, i would say go for whey, and mix it with glucose (or any simple carbs, higher the gi the better) for ur post workout and the rest of the day, just consume more protein (remember u need 1g of protein to per lbs of ur body weight). Add on healthy fat (coconut oil, oilive oil, sunflower seed, pumpkin seed and etc) on ur daily diet for extra calories for u to gain weight.

Remember, those supplement is still supplement, real food is way better than those powder smile.gif

what if i buy a nitrotech pre workout and serious mass for post workout? and the nitrotech mix with glucose that u recommend to me, would it gives better result?

The result will be the same with normal whey, except u will burn a bigger hole in ur wallet.

Preworkout? brown rice plus beef or chicken, or oat and eggs.

You can take how many scoops you want per day in order to meet your requirement of 1g of protein per every 1lb of your weight. So do the math. But always do remember, whey is just supplements. Try consume natural protein sources. Its ok to consume a scoop a day. Most people do that.

no workout days also can consume a scoop a day rite?

Yes but don't count out supplements from the equation. You should prioritize, training, real food then supplements. Once you get the first 2 factors in order and you get proper supplementation which suits your exact needs, you'll explode in growth.

Training, food and supplements = that is the bodybuilding lifestyle.
