ive been training for 2 1/2 years now without using any protein powders and tbh i do find most of the threads about them amusing cos it it seems peeps think theyre the answer to why theyre not putting on muscle,but i`m digressing towards another brawny thread!
as i`m in training for this competition i thought i`d give some of extremes whey protein a go.
now i have used maximuscle powders maybe 5 years ago-lol i used them a lot!
so i to be fair its not a totally fair comparison cos i havent tried maximuscles current offering,but i think i got enuff experience to be able to make a fair critique.
well flavour wise theres nothing in it extreme tastes exactly as i remembered the MM powder to be and it mixed up exactly the same too-
total liquid and no smeg in the bottom.
i do find nowadays that my taste buds have changed and i dont like sweet foods-i don`t use sugar in anything and i found it tasted much nicer in water than milk-which i thought was shame tbh,but anyone with a sweet tooth would love it.
its going to be intersting to see how noticable the benfits of using whey are for recovery given that i`ve managed fine in the past-albeit training once every 4 day.
i`ve been getting heavy legs recently due to an increase in walking-
so i`m not expecting to train a day early,but i`m hoping the whey prevents this happening.
yet again i am using extremes whey which doesnt have all the added aminos of MM,but i`d imagine his powder which has all the added aminos is just as good,if the whey i`ve tried or creatine is that ive used in the past(just as good as MM again)is anything to go by.
i tried extremes performance mass yesterday preworkout and i gotta say it fuelled my workout far better than my oats,nana and milk usually does(tuna before that)
its normal for me to be wicked hungry halfway thru!
main point of me doing this thread is cos of the circular thinking peeps get into over which powder they should have-reading all the macronutrients and trying to workout which is best for growth and all that old honk
i`m not saying extremes protein is the best,but i would say it`s equal to the best out there at a far cheaper price.
i`ll keep y`all updated to how it goes.
