    Protein shakes don't "work" nor does any other kind of food. You work by going for a run, picking up heavy things, or going for a bicycle ride. Protein just helps repair your muscles after you are done. It doesn't really matter whether you get it in a shake or from eating meat or from plant based proteins. For a lot of athletes, a glass of chocolate milk is the way to go.

    Chocolate milk is perfect for my bulking bf... I'd sob uncontrollably at having drank that many carbs tho lol

    If you want protein that fills you up, why not go the chicken/cod route rather than liquid shakes?

    Protein shakes are greatly convenient for bumping my protein over 100g a day when I have the goal of gaining weight, but I drop them completely when cutting (despite upping my protein intake considerably when I do).
