Hey all,
Been lurking on the site with a few posts here and there for several months, and love the buckets of information I’ve gotten.
I religiously check the site daily, and read whatever articles are thrown up, so much better than my old subscription to Men’s Health
My questions is which type of Protein power should I be looking into?
I used the GNC Whey for a while until I found the site, and recently got me a container of Surge and have been using it. I’m at a slight deficit of calories right now as I’m in the cutting summer months. However, I work out every day of the week with weights on MWF and a “sports fitness” type class with a lot of HIIT on T and Th.
The wife is using low carb Metabolic Drive, and she seems to enjoy it. The problem is, when drinking a shake every day before my workouts, that is going to rack up some serious cash.
We’re talking 5 shakes a week for me, with 16 servings, comes out to just over 16 tubs of Surge a year for me. With the low-carb for the wife, she gets 31 servings out of each container, so let’s say 12 containers.
(16+12) x $32.99 = $923 not counting shipping.
This is just a ton of money for protein powder.
I’m not asking for anyone to bash the products on the site, because they seem fantastic, but is there ANY way to find a cheaper option here?
Me switching to low carb metabolic during cutting months and Surge during colder bulking months, I would probably save a little money (~$100 or so probably) but still.
Any light at the end for a poor hopeful?
