Huge Selection of Cheap Protein Shake Powders
Whether you are new to bodybuilding or a seasoned veteran, you will already be aware that protein powders are one of the first choices of bodybuilding supplements.
Choosing A Suitable Protein Powder
There is such a massive selection of protein products available on the market so unless you have been in the bodybuilding game for a while, you may need a little guidance when choosing your ideal protein. Remember that the general consensus on the amount of protein your body needs per day is between 1 gram per pound or 1.5 pounds of your body's weight (depending on who you talk to). Here are some suggestions on what to consider when choosing your protein powder:
What are your muscle building goals?
It is important that you examine the nutritional values of each protein powder you are considering because these will effect your muscle development. If you on a mass gaining/bulking rampage, you want high protein, high calorie protein powder. However, if you are on a strict cutting/lean muscle mass gaining diet, you should be looking for a high protein but low calorie and low carbohydrate powder. Always pay attention to the amount of protein, calories, carbohydrates, sugars and fat in supplements you buy.
Preferred Shake Flavor?
If you have read our protein shake recipes section of the site
you most likely will be interested in mixing other ingredients into your shakes. If you go for a more neutral flavor (like vanilla) you will have a lot more freedom in the recipes you could use. If you go with a more complex flavor (like tropical punch) you choice of recipe is more limited. Remember you are likely to get sick of drinking the same shake over an aver so unless you buy a selection of products you should try our recipes.
Price
Obviously price is likely to play a part in your choice. There are a number of cheaper products on the market but the fact is that you get what you pay for. Make sure you are getting quality protein and not too much extra fat ingredients and sugars.
What Type of Protein Suits You?
You have a choice in the type of protein you can purchase, the most popular of which is whey protein powder. Of course whey protein comes from cow's milk so if you are a strict vegan or if you are lactose intolerant you might want to opt for soy protein instead. You can also try egg protein powders. See below for more information on these different powder types.
