    I use GNC Wheybolic Extreme 60 and Optimum Nutrition Gold. You want maximum protein, minimal fat, and minimal carbs.

    Just because one type of protein may have more grams of protein in a serving doesn’t mean it’s better. You have to look at the size of the serving and the total calories of the serving. Do the math and figure out which protein has the best ratio of protein calories to total calories. For instance, Wheybolic Extreme 60 has 20g of protein in a 93 calorie scoop (80 of the 93 calories are protein = 86% protein). This is better than Optimum Nutrition Gold, which has 24g of protein in a 130 calorie serving (96 of the 130 calories are protein = 74% protein).
  • Collagen Sport combines whey and collagen, a great combination for muscle recovery and pain relief after exercise. Also has vitamins and minerals. No synthetic sugars and gluten free.
