Give Nitrean a try. Many, many members from these forums have used it and loved it.

EAS MyoPro is low in carbs and fat, 20g whey protein per scoop. can get 5.5lbs online for about $27. That's nearly 80 servings.

You do realize that this protein is not a magical supplement? Judging by your post it sounds like you expect it to pack on some muscle mass. Don't get me wrong, Nitrean tastes great, has a great blend of proteins and the ratio between protein and carbs is good.

Although Nitrean/any other protein supplement is nice to have as a supplement to your normal diet, it's just protein. You can essentially eat more chicken. There is no magic in protein supplements, they are just easier to consume, quicker digesting forms of the whole food you already should be eating.

it'll help your body fix itself after your workouts and help you supplement your diet. it probably won't make your workout more explosive,etc. look into Creatine for that. Creatine is damn cheap, VERY safe, and most people see they can add more stamina to their sessions. VERY cheap.

take it RIGHT after you workout no matter what. also, i drink protein shakes just about every days of the week as you the days after you're working out is when your body needs protein to rebuild. morning, night, whenever. I use them as meal replacements to some degree. whenever they fit into my schedule really. if i can't eat a real breakfast, then i'll have a shake. if i need something at night and feel a little urge, i'll drink a shake then. i have about one a day probably, but i but 2 scoops in, which is 50+ grams of protein.

Protein powder won't give you any "extra boost". If you ate an extra chicken breast a day in lieu of the protein shake you're going to begin taking you wouldn't expect anything magical from that, so don't hold your breath over a protein powder.

Where are you located? If you are on the West Coast it will take 7 business days as the norm. If you PM me your name I can track the package for you.
