Does anyone drink preworkout shakes, meal replacement shakes, and/or post workout shakes? Thoughts on them? Brands? Flavors? Best places to buy them?

Thanks!

    I like Premier Protien shakes. Vanilla, Chocolate, and Strawberry. They have 30g protein for 160 calories. I buy then at Sam's Club. 12 for $16 something.

    Those are my favorite too. Costco has them in 18 packs for $24.99. BJs has the chocolate and a $3.50 coupon for them right now.

    I read online that one of the dangers of protein is high levels of arsonic and metals. That makes me kind of worried about protein powders now.

    I love Muscletech Cookies and Cream. Not too sweet. When mixed with almond milk and super cold, it tastes like an oreo blizzard that has melted.

    I tried the shakeology shakes (cafe latte, chocolate and vanilla). They're expensive (and seem gimmicky) so I didn't want to like them. I like them a lot though (except for vanilla). They're actually quite satisfying and tasty.

    Thank you! I tried some of my boyfriends protein shake. It is Syntha-6 cookies and cream flavor and I didn't care for it too much. Lol. The consistency was weird but the flavor wasn't bad! I'm a baby though and could t stomach it.

    I like Syntrax Matrix in peanut butter cookie and mint cookie. They are too sweet for me as is but I cut the sweet with peanut butter powder and cocoa powder.

    I like the Vega One plant based protein line. Kind of spendy, but the mocha shake made with a frozen banana, pumpkin purée & roasted beet as well as some Greek yogurt, a tbs of nut butter & some freshly brewed coffee is DELICIOUS.

    That sounds really good! I also looked into plant based proteins. I think hemp was the one that seemed the healthiest. Don't quote me on that one though. Lol

    Optimum Nutrition's chocolate whey isolate is the BEST I've tried. I also do the vanilla sometimes and add fruit, but the vanilla one tastes a bit too artificial.

    Gold standard whey protein. Their cookies and cream is pretty good but my favorite is the strawberry banana. You can get it online cheapest probably. But comes in a big tub and lasts a while! Good investment.

    EAS AdvantEdge Carb Control Ready to Drink Shakes. I prefer the strawberry cream or rich dark chocolate flavors. About 100 calories, 2 net carbs, and 17g of protein.
