WildFlower7

Starting a grueling workout soon and I wanted to hear from you all what your favorite protein shake/shake brand is, and what sort of things, if any u like to add to your shake to give it more protein or just add more to it.

Right now I have Body Fortress-Super advanced- Whey protein- vanilla- 26g of protein per one scoop. I have heard of adding peanut butter to this, bananas & strawberries. Any other good ideas? What's ur favorite brand?

i'm not big on shakes, but you can add greek yogurt, nutella, pb, olive oil, ice cream, oats, flax seed. a ton of things go pretty well with a decent protein powder

I am drinking Chocolate Shakeology and i have 3 recipes I rotate through but this week has been my "reeses cup" week lol ... I just add peanut butter - regular PB I love my PB2 for my Banana/Peanut Butter shake but I love the strong peanut butter taste and really feel like I am eating a dessert instead of something good for me

I drink my shake for breakfast and occasionally for lunch and I just ordered Nutiva Hemp Protein + Fiber to add to some of them .. I also drink P90X Results & Recovery occasionally I am not doing intense workouts so I dont use 4 tablespoons but I normally do 1 tablespoon in my bottle water I drink right after working out and so far I haven't been sore

Had a super yummy one form the shake place near me but you could totally make it at home too

8 oz milk
2 scoops chocolate protein shake powder (herbalife)
1 scoop vanilla protein (herbalife)
1/2 tablesppon sugar free cheesecake pudding instant mix
1/4 teaspoon cocoanut extract
1 cup ice

Takes like drinking an almond joy bar.
When I plugged in the ingredients on here it came out to 285 cal/25g protein

Depending on how many cals I have burnt and have left I have a few.

I normally make them with milk too if I'm adding other things, if not I just throw it in a shaker and have it with water but my 2 favs are:


1 1/2 Scoop Dymatize ISO 100 Gourmet Chocolate (Probably as pure as you can get for whey protein g for g!)
Milk
Big hand full of ice
Quaker Oats (1 Sachet)
Half a banana OR some Peanut Butter


1 1/2 Scoop Dymatize ISO 100 Gourmet Chocolate
Milk
Big hand full of ice
half a banana
1/2 to 1 tablespoon of peanut butter

Blend it all up and it taste pretty damn good!!!

I switch them up sometimes, using blueberries or strawberries too.

I usually just have my protein with water immediately after my workout. We use Ultimate Nutrition chocolate creme flavour. If ı made it into a shake, I'd add a handful of oats, couple of walnuts, and half a banana, blended with skim milk.

Are we using this as a recovery shake or meal replacement?

I use Reclaim Smart Smoothie - the chocolate kind. I won it at a zumba benefit so this is the first and only one i've tried. It has 20 g protein and 120 cals. I have a couple of variations.

Protein mix
milk
frozen berries/fruit

Protien mix
Ice
Milk
1 tbl peanut butter (this one is by far my favorite! So yummy)

I dirnk one for breakfast in the morning for the past week since I won it.

I totally use my local grocery store brand, it's actually pretty tasty...that said, I use the vanilla and mix it with 1 cup of 1% milk, about a half a cup of frozen cherries and a cup of cubes of fresh canteloupe...AMAZING!

I like the Sci-Mx range - nice taste to them. I have been eating low fat/ highish carb so I used to add a scoop of the Vanilla flavour to my morning Porridge along with some cinnamon - very tasty.

As far as shakes, I WAS making them with skimmed milk and half a frozen banana, then blended.

I've just switched to Atkins, however, so now I mix it with water and add a dessert spoon of coconut oil and a dessert spoon of flax oil. I don't really add much in the way of fruit or anything like that - the frozen banana was about as adventurous as I ever got!

ok well it sounds like peanut butter is in fact a popular one! My boyfriend told me a few weeks ago chocolate milk is good too for recovery so maybe instead of regular milk maybe ill substitute with chocolate milk and see how that works out with a little p.b.Thanks pals!
