I'm looking for a nice tasting protein powder to increase my protein intake and give me energy for workouts, I'm just looking to tone up and lose a bit of fat - no bulking or anything.

I've been looking at reviews and sic-mx seems to be popular, however there's so many different kinds and I have no idea what to get! Any help??

    Taste is individual. You'd have to try it yourself. As far as nutrition, if you can meet your daily protein goal without protein powders, it's probably better to stick with whole foods in most cases. There's nothing magical about protein powders, aside from convenience. It doesn't really teach you long-term habits, so I would not rely on them. As far as "boost", that's doubtful. Try to have a combination of carbs/protein around your workouts. If you want a "boost" try a pre-workout stimulant.

    I use Sci-MX they used to be USN.

    Their shake comes in chocolate and strawberry flavour. It's probably one of the few ones I enjoy and look forward too.
    It has egg whites which makes the shake creamy without adding milk. I don't feel like I'm on diet then as it tastes like a naughty shake.

    I must admit it's slightly powdery as with all shakes but a lot less powdery than many others that I've tried.

    I find mixing it using a blender bottle with a grid inside (not sure what it's called) or the ones with a little metal spring works best.

    Plus to add the powder to the water and not the other way around. :-)

    Best of luck x

    I pay £22 per 1kg tub and £38 or so for a 2kg tub depending on where I buy it from. x :happy:
