I figured I would attach a pic so I can show my before/after shots..it's nice to see evidence since we are on a forum and I could be a 395 lb tranny for all you know haha. I am in my mid 20's so yes it is much easier for me to lose/weight and build muscle...i realize that.
But I really like Optimum Nutrition 100% Why Gold Standard protein. GREAT taste and the amino acid profile on it is awesome. Packs 24 grams/ scoop and it is also stingy on fat and carbs. Post workout I will drink a scoop and a half-2 scoops of the ON 100% whey with a packet of quaker instant oatmeal mixed in there. I will also eat half a banana to help with the insulin spike. Throw some creatine in there and you have yourself a 85$ MuscleTech post workout drink. Which are ultimately a blend of protein/carbs/amino/sugar or dextrose. Some other stuff that works good other than oatmeal (as oatmeal is slow digesting since it is a complex carb) is stuff called WaxiMaize...it digests two times faster than sugar and is an almost instant insulin spike. (which is important for shuttling the protein/aminos/creatine to the muscle)
