    I'm very picky about taste and texture of protein shakes. I can not stand stand it if it takes like I'm drinking flavored sand!


    My favorites:

    Muscle Milk

    Dynamtize (sp?)

    Gaspari Myofusion

    Syntha 6

    Optimum Nutrition

    I buy premier nutrition protein shakes at Costco and they are actually pretty good.

    I don't like how unnaturally smooth the liquid is so if I am at home, I give it a quick whirl with the immersion blender to make it a bit frothier. I've thought about getting a blender bottle for when I want to have one out and about, but just haven't done it yet.

    Myofusion is good
    Bio X is good

    Don't buy your protein from wal-mart or somewhere ike that . go into a nutrition store and ask to test it first
    Most of the time (if they are good sales people) they will let you try it out.

    heck yeah bro LOVE myofusion so good their new probiotic formula is amazing dude!


    and hes right dont buy a cheapo brand they are disgusting I personally am not a fan of GNC either check out

    Optimum Nutrition's "Turbo Chocolate". Great mixed with water. Probably still great mixed with milk (I just don't use that personally).

    I put one serving in an overpowered blender along with two tablespoons of natural peanut butter and one cup of ice and make ice cream out of it.

    ...and it's amazing.

    My brother who is a fitness professional says that if you can't drink the protien shake with water, it isn't good quality. I have found this to be rather true. Just a thought ;)

    You honestly can't go wrong with Myofusion or Optimum nutrition, I switch em up when i get bored of one.
    For myofusion - mix banana perfection with milk chocolate
    Optimum nutrition - Extreme milk chocolate
    I use 2 scoops each morning 6 oz skim milk 6 oz water seems to be a good ratio.

    All of the Syntha 6 flavors are DELICIOUS! I mean really, does it get better than peanut butter flavor with a banana, some milk, and a dash of cocoa in your oatmeal or as a smoothie??? Droooooool.

    Try LisaLynn mix you can go to lisalynnfitness.com or you can buy a buy brand called Pure Protien mix. The Lisa Lynn shake is pretty spendy but it is good. I add either blue berries or strawberries to my shake. The Pure Protein mix is not that expensive.

    If you like coffee, then see my receipe below for yummy but low-cal Cafe Mocha Shake.

    Cafe Mocha Protein Shake Recipe:
    Chocolate Protein mix ( follow serving direction from label)
    4 ounces of cold coffee (you can add more coffee depending to your liking - I usually put in 6 ounces from coffee brewed)
    3 to 4 ounces of water ( you can add less to make the coffee taste stronger, I usually put in 2 ounces)
    Now Blend for 30 to 40 seconds
    Then add 3 to 5 ice cubes
    Blend Again for about 30 to 40 seconds
    Enjoy! :-)

    About 150 calories with 2 grams of fat - depending on the type of protein mix you use

    First one I bought was ISO ENERGY chocolate. It tastes ok, but you really need a blender for it to dissolve properly. And once I get the blender out, I usually add stuff like, benefibre, cocoa powder, strawberries, greek yogurt, and milk, definitely milk.

    Don't think you're stuck with what you've got, there are always ways to make it tastier.

    I have not found one that does taste good. I now tend to mix mine with a meal replacement shake.
