Chocolate milk, however, has a high amount of carbohydrates, a moderate amount of sodium and cholesterol, plus a few grams of unhealthy saturated fats. Using the drink as a primary protein source in the previously mentioned diet plan would not only make sense, but provide more of a weight gain diet than anything. Ultimately, drinking chocolate milk daily poses less of a problem if you realize that the drink does not match up as an adequate protein source. Paired with other foods as part of a nutritionally sound diet, chocolate milk can play a vital role in a healthy lifestyle.

When I was buying some Lucozade sweets the other day I saw something genius - protein soups instead of protein shakes.

Hard!

I just used that whey protein from holland & barretts, its actually down to half price ATM.. people will say whatever they are taking is THE BEST.

if youre training right i'm sure any shake will do ffs, its just a cheeky enhancement.

From listening to people in the gym and on the net PHD seems to be the best, but dear.

None are much better than the other.. all down to price, taste and protein content ultimately. Unless you go for all in one shakes, then it depends what you want in it.

I like MP coz theyre cheap and you get points like Tesco!

Protein bioavailability. Theres some cheap shit out there with shit loads of protein which will just pass through you and give you bad guts.... not to mention LDL cholesterol which will fuck you up more than a big mac.

within reason, you get what you pay for.

Your right we don't NEED protein shakes, but you won't develop to be as strong without them. Your comparing human survival with muscle building.

Also, you are talking absolute shite. I'm not going to sugar coat it. People that go to the gym that train to be strong will always be stronger than someone with a job that requires graft.

If this wasn't true, think strongmen/weightlifters/powerlifters/bodybuilders would put their body through hell, injury, and insane diets and nutrition regimes? would they fuck. They'd help out farmer joe. BOLLOX they would.

I look healthy enough and can safely say i'm strong, powerful, and fit. Protein shakes play a part of my life, as they do with all athletes.....

Maybe you should tell them all they are wasting their money?

i have a friend who goes the gym religiously, hammers the protein and has a proper diet blah blah blah, hes won countless weight lifting comp's mostly in the NW and hes been in comps abroad. We had him on site and labouring on us and was as strong as a 5 year old.

imo all this weightlifting, deadlifts etc is all about the technique. thumbsup

Technique comes into it, but its certainly not ALL about the technique laughing

Not at all. Deadlift is hardly technique, it's primitive as fuck. If you were payin your mate it sounds like he ripped you off. If I can pick up 320kg of steel think I'm gonna struggle carrying a few bags of plaster or buckets around? Am I fuck. Also, deadlift is a powerlifting event, not weightlifting.

Ripped him off....haha...you now know the building trade in support of protien shakes. In the legion almost all of the body builders were rejected, reason is that useless muscle takes far too long to adjust to the training, longer even than the fat fuckers to shed fat and build fresh. Plus, most of them were weak minded fucks that got muscle from a couple hours a day and sups. Funny topic this, roll it on I say.

As for a 320kg lift..i can't think of a single practical use for it if thats all you do. Can you stack a hod and climb a ladder with it all day? Can you move it from to b

Once again your confusing bodybuilding with powerlifting.

Climbing a ladder all day is not strength. I don't know what part of your little mind you don't understand about it. Someone asked about protein, and we give our opinion, and you start giving it the 'bodybuilders can't work on building sites'.

So fucking what!>?

Bodybuilders train for size (irony), and powerlifters train for power and strength (even more irony). If you honestly think the typical brickie or laborer is as strong as a trained athlete in any of the disciplines you are seriously deluded.

As for moving something from A to B... Yes I can, I do farmers carries as part of my warm up routine, which involves carrying 2 x 140kg sleds 3 x 30m.

As for the ladder, I do rope climbs with a 40kg bergan on, so yes again.

If the guy wants protein shakes so he can work on this worlds hardest building site you imagined up in your head then take a fuckin bow, you gave him the best advice ever.

As far as I knew, he wanted to build a bit of muscle and lose fat.... which has no correlation to working on a building site.

Secondly.... even if I were to entertain your argument which is completely seperate to strength etc etc....

Anecdote....

Mr.A plays on his xbox all day everyday, and gets a job on a building site.

Mr.B goes to the gym everyday, eats well, and is in good shape.

So, with your maths, mr.A getst he job because he's not a bodybuilder. Please tell me you aren't for real.

If this is one big wind up and i've fell for it, i feel stupid. if not, then you need to give your head a shake 2far

Read it. He proves himself wrong. I can link 100's of studies that optimum is 2:1 carbs to protein after anaerobic workouts. I can't be arsed lowering myself to your ridiculously low level. thumbsup

So the op is a power lifter is he? Or are you just here to blow your own trumpet? Your still full of shit pal, I could rattle off a dozen and more scenarios where grafters have shown up gym muscle men but like yourself I can't be arsedwasting the breath on it with you. You obviously have never been taught how to communicate without being a tit when you meet differing views to your own blinkered conditioning.

Who said anyone else was a powerlifter? And seriously how many times do I have to tell you I'm not a bodybuiler with 'gym muscles'.... Even if I was it's the same muscle picking up a dumbell as picking up a bag of plaster. The only one looking like a tit is yourself arguing about a subject you have no idea about.... Whereas I live, eat, breathe and shit the conditioning and adaptation of the human body. The only person I'm talking to like a tit is you.... because as far as I can tell, you are one that won't hold up his hands and admit that everyone's experience aswell as 100's of scientific studies are correct, and that your views are both WRONG, but even if they wasn't, it's IRRELAVANT. The fact that everything you have said on the forum contributes to nothing the poster asked, you have to ask yourself what posessed you to come on and start having digs at bodybuilders? Maybe I should jump on the random gif thread and say that builders are shit at running coz they are all fat? Better still I'll send you Terry Hollands email address ao you can tell him he would be a shit labourer... You'll get the same response as the majority of people gave you on here... So fucking what.

Also in your above post you just said that people were turned away because their muscles come from supplements.... But yet on page one you say supplements don't build muscle. How contradictive can you get? You make the building trade sound like survival of the fittest. I did basic training with a handful of ex builders who didn't make it to week 3. Maybe coincidence maybe not, but I'm nit going to use a few individuals to represent that whole community.... As you have with bodybuilders.
