    I find diet whey quite good - My Protein seems to be popular ww.myprotein.com - Impact Diet whey. But loads of places will do diet whey, I use impact diey whey from USC Nutrition (google them) I think they are quite new but the ingredients list is very similar to my protein so cant foresee any problems!

    Lyle McDonald and Layne Norton, and i'd listen to them over anything you could ever tell me. What you said is bro-science nonsense, get out of here bro.
    Yeah that says it all really, "I listen to what these two have to say and refuse to believe anything else". Very narrow sighted view. Too many people spouting personal beliefs as science these days (about a whole range of subjects) is confusing and confounding the actually facts.

    Anyway, I think we hijacked the thread a bit here with our bickering. Obviously we are not going to see eye-to-eye so I will leave it at that.

    Ironically the study referenced actually AGREES with layne nortons stance on protein timing since his PHD research, so that wasn't the best name to drop. he still recommends regular protein intake throughout the day not the 'eat it whenever you want' approach. (although the timings are a bit different, every 3 hours instead of 4-6 hours).

    If you would like to read a review on the current studies on post workout nutrition then I suggest

    And how did you measure body fat? Because it's impossible to lose 3% body fat in 3 days. You can't barely lose a lb of fat in that time period. Herbalife is not a miracle drink. You are just being fouled by water weight losses.

    Just find a protein shake you can afford and taste good.

    I also knew Layne said such thing, but I was fairly certain it was only considered even worth bothering with if you were a competition stage athlete.
