Yeah it's not a problem, I always pour a bit of extra water in after I drink it to get the rest out anyway...Just pointing out the difference compared to the PD stuff. And it might've been because of the casein, I'll sus it out when I use the WPI on it's own

Might give it a go when I'm done with the chocolate. Just had a taste, although it was mixed with a scoop of unflavored casein, so I'll try it on it's own tomorrow to give a fair comparison to the Protein Direct. It's a lot thicker than PD, still mixed well and easily, but it coats the sides of a protein shaker whereas the PD stuff is more watery and settles to the bottom of the shaker pretty much instantly. Also a lot sweeter than the PD, but not as sweet as something like Dymatize ISO 100 chocolate, which I stopped using as I couldn't handle drinking something that tasted like cake mix, not to mention the extra sugar/fillers that'd be in it to give that taste. So yeah, fair chance I'll stick with the BN stuff, and may try strawberry next time. Will definitely try to get it sent in 1kg bags next time round though, even though I store it in a tub, that only holds 2.5kg, so until I get another one the big bag is a pain in the ass. 1kg bags will also make it easier to split with my mate which we always did when buying from PD.

I'll be emptying it into tubs anyway. Haven't tasted it yet, will do tonight...What's strawberry like? Higher protein % than chocolate (so do natural and vanilla, but I don't do vanilla) so might change it up with that next time if it goes alright... Assuming you mix with water, does it have a milky consistency? 1kg bags would suit me better...What flavor did you order?

Order arrived from Bulk Nutrients... Ordered 6pm Thursday so delivery by Tuesday is decent. Was expecting 2 x 2.5kg bags for the 5kg protein, or even 5x1kg bags, but opened the box to find a big f**k off 5kg zip lock bag lol...I'll probably order 10kg next time so will be interesting to see if it's a 10kg bag or 2x5kgs....Protein direct is all 2.5kg bags unless you get 20kg which only comes unflavored. Still got about a kilo of PD left, but I'll probably crack this open for a taste soon... Ash, you had the strawberry or just chocolate?

Haven't even got the email from Aus Post yet so seems to me it hasn't even been sent...

Add me to the waiting for delivery... They definitely lose that battle, Protein Direct is normally here the next day, 2 days after placing the order is the longest I've had to wait

I eat at least a 185g tin of tuna a day

Nothing more than a placebo imo. I wear them for footy training, apart from keeping me slightly cooler in summer, and slightly warmer in winter, they really don't do much at all.

I agree 100% with majestic. If everyone else in your sport is doing it, take bodybuilding and steroids for example. If you decide not to 'cheat', you'll go nowhere because your competition will be.

Well she is his training partner.. Lol

Dare say that most people in here don't compete in anything, so there's no cheating involved. As for nick's point, you'll find that most people willing to take clen, are in the gym to look good. Strength and fitness is a by a product.

Jay cutlers cheat meals are good. Goes to a burger joint and orders 2 burgers with 4 patties on each, 1 slice of cheese on each and no added salt. I plan to start cutting around mid august, but gotta start easing into it now coz I've gotten real last over the last few months

What case? No one was disputing the legalities of it..

Yeah no issue with service. Always arrives very quickly, 2 days at most. One time they sent me a bag labelled chocolate but containing natural, they sent me a free chocolate replacement and a flavor sachet for the natural, so about $100 worth of free stuff in the end. Bulk nutrients is cheaper though. $270 for 10kg VS $300 from pd. Still cheaper even with the $5 extra in postage. And has a higher % of protein, so even if the price was the same as PD, it'd be better value imo

Just compared nutritional info of protein direct (which I've used for a while now) and bulk nutrients chocolate WPI. Energy levels are about the same per 100g BN wins on protein % per 100g BN wins on carbs with 1.7g vs 5.3g per 100g PD wins on sugars with 1.1g vs 1.5g per 100g, close enough PD wins on saturated fats with 0.4g vs 1g per 100g PD wins on sodium with 190mg vs 205mg per 100g So I've purchased 5kg of the bulknutrients chocolate. Have never tasted it, and should probably have gone with 1kg to try it out, but it's not about taste so I'm sure I'll get it down.

Send me a copy of your split when u get a chance birds

Never noticed but it does look freakishly big. My mate is the other guy though

And at the end of the day, he wasn't good enough to make the pass in the remaining laps anyway. Team orders or no team orders.

tis pretty clear what the dominant topic is in here though

Considering this section was made after the 'gym & supplements' thread, which was basically being used as a gym/fitness forum because there wasn't one, obviously there is going to be new threads that overlap...I don't see the need to merge them. Woulda thought the moderator of a fitness forum would be someone who's actually into gym/fitness/bodybuilding etc..

Suicide

A thread in the health section would probably suffice

Alonso paying $9, Webber $41... Vettel not even worth it at $1.06
