is this something i can mix in with protein powder in a shake or would that dilute it too much? whats the best way to maximize the use to gain mass

Yup, I mix it with my protein shake everyday. You will barely taste it and you will get better results by taking creatine, make sure to drink lots of water

Yes, absolutely you should mix with your protein powder. If you have a mass gainer and mix the creatine with it you'll be good to go. Look up "creatine loading," on google it's something you may want to consider doing when you buy it. The bottle itself will tell you about creatine loading. You DONT NEED to load creatine, but results come faster if you do. Taking it slow will produce the same results just it takes longer to get the results.

Yes you can , the shakes are just a source of protein for your work outs, or a meal supplement.

Well if you want to tone up. You must include protein in your diet...ump in my opinion is one of the best, it is also great to cook with, which is what I use it for, protein drinks I use Scivation brand, more for your dollar.

I think it should be fine. I mixed it with orange juice and that was a disaster! I now blend it with a little distilled water and take it as a quick shot. This product is very earthy tasting so it's easier to drink it fast. It may change the taste of your protein powder smoothie mixture, if you don't mind that then give it a try.

For the money, this is one of the best protein powders per scoop. As far as gaining muscle, the best way to do that this you take 2 to 1 carbohydrates to protein immediately after a workout. So for example you would want to take one scoop of the protein which is about 25 g of protein and then also take 50 g of simple carbohydrates. Optimum nutrition sells a simple carbohydrate called maze. You can also drink grape juice which would do the same thing. The maze from optimum nutrition is cheaper but both do the same thing.

It seems good to me.....I need extra protein in my diet and thought this was a good way to supplement it. I like that it is very easy to mix when I don't use my blender. I just add it to water in my glass and mix with a spoon. I tend to drink it after working out. I've had other protein shakes over the years and this one is low in sugar, easy to mix & has a good creamy taste. (before drinking after mixing, I let it sit for about a minute and it seems to get more creamy) I really like it.

See "M's" answer, it is absolutely correct, though I will add a couple of comments. Each scoop has 16g protein and 150 calories, but if you are like me and want more than 16g but less than 32g protein, you can simply use a "scoop and a half" per shake and obviously end up around 24 servings per tub. Also as M mentioned, addl protein can be gained from mixing with milk, though I travel constantly (no easy access to milk) and have stuck with muscle milk because it tastes so great with just water and as an added bonus it actually mixes a LOT easier and more smoothly with water vs milk in my experience.

Blend or stir protein drink with 8 oz of water. I use almond or soy milk instead.

You should add 10 ounces of water, then 2 heaping scoops of the protein powder. It's always good to fill your container, with water, first. If you don't have a blender of any sort - you'll have to shake the mixture vigorously.You can always add fruit to your mixture. First, add the cut up fruit, then the water to a 10 ounce line, then the protein powder. You will definitely need a blender of some sort to blend the fruit.

Glennis C. This product would provide what you want but I would recommend increasing protein intake with your diet too. One serving of this product is over half of your daily calorie intake. Now we are just talking about weight gain not mass/muscle if you aren't able to workout. Hope it works for you. JS

I use 2 scoops in 8 oz of water and I use a Magic Bullet to blend it. It really needs a blender to mix properly. It's almost like a shake after 30 seconds. If you don't like it that thick, you should add a little more water to get the consistency you like. I like the feel of a milkshake consistency. I wouldn't lessen the amount of powder as you won't get the full nutrition.

Both are good products and you should get comparable results from either one. Most whey protein products from major reliable manufacturers are very similar these days. Your own personal goals are the main factor to use in determining your choice. If you want to gain mass, then choose a Meal Replacement Powder or a Mass Gainer. These have considerably more calories per serving than does a whey powder only product. If your goals are more towards staying or getting lean, gaining endurance through exercise, or if you just want to boost your protein intake, then choose a whey powder such as either one of these you have mentioned or others like them.

I would never replace a meal with any protein shake unless your on the go and need some fuel for your body. I would use this mostly as an after workout drink or in between meal snack.

I use it as a breakfast shake w/fruit and greek yogurt. It has both Whey Protein (a fast burning protein) and Casein (a slow burning protein). I use a Whey only protein in the afternoon after workouts. Becuase of Casein's slow burning properties, it helps to keep my hunger at bay. Also Casein is a thick protein. It's normally it's used at night before bed because it takes so long to digest. The thickness helps the shakes not be so watery. On a side note, casein does contain amino acids which promote body mass. This could be a good thing or bad thing depending on your fitness goals.

Yes you can if you use the protein shakes in place of a meal. I use two scoops of protein powder with Almond Milk in a shaker cup for breakfast. It is also good post work out.

Really a lot -- maybe 30? 25? 40? Somewhere in that neighborhood I am guessing. You can control how much powder you put into your drink also -- two scoops, the "recommended serving size -- has the same amount of protein as 3 1/2 eggs! So you can use less powder. This is the one protein powder that does not upset my stomach.
