Protein Powder for Women

Options
Is there any Protein Powder or any other powders or supplements, etc., out there that you would recommend for women? I don't want to gain weight from it or anything but I would like to take something to aid my workouts and everything. I need to kick up my workouts since I will be going into the Community and Justice field and would like to be in the best shape possible.

Thanks,

Shannon

    All protein powders are for both men and women.
    They do have different amounts of protein and calories and carbs per scoop though. So just go read labels at a store and pick out one that you want.
    Any Whey Protein will be good.
    Those aren't designed to make you gain weight.
    The weight gain ones will say it on the container (ie. Mass Builder, or SuperWeightGain, or something like that) Just get a regular Whey Protein.

    I use Super Advance Whey Protein from Walmart. Comes in 5 flavors, with calorie counts for 1 OR 2 scoops. I use 1.
