A good protein powder?

Hi there! Would just like some input on what are some really good protein powders available out there. I have been weight training pretty vigorously lately and am thinking about incorporating a protein shake after weight workouts. I'd like to stay away from a lot of sugar, preferably, and would like to hear about some other options besides whey. Thanks!!

    I really like Dymatize Iso100 chocolate fudge. It tastes great and is one of the higher quality whey proteins on the market. What is your purpose for incorporating a protein supplement though? Are you having trouble hitting your protein macro goal for the day? After a hard workout, getting in some carbs is actually more important. The protein comes later.

    The protein works stuff tastes amazing!!! Blends well, and they have a really wide range of powders depending on what you want it for. Only used the diet ones though but they are lovely. They constantly have offers on too.

    I just toss Greek yogurt, milk and frozen berries in my nutrabullet and call that a protein shake.

    Yes, usually I fall short on protein, even though I attempt to eat a good amount of it at every meal.
