still tossing up (fap fap fap Lol) which sup to get, something easy to sink all protein and no carbs would suit me well, I don't care about taste, if it truthfully tastes good then Yeah I will hold out for it, but most of them taste so bad you can't really worry about it Lol.

PS.

the best motivation is feeling increased strength and muscle growth, pretty happy at the moment so I am upping the amount of different exercises I do per workout, in go squats and a few other old faithfuls.

banana and coffee flavour is ftw! banana is sorta weak, which i emailed the owner/manager about and he told be they dont want to put too much sugars etc in there.

Theyre also low carb

Also, $7 delivery to anywhere in Aus. (they also have a showroom in melbs if u live that way)

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.

Excellent, thanks for the link mate :thumbsup:

I also did a comparison, and I think they're pretty much close to each other in the above breakdown, but I chose PD because they were cheaper buy maybe.. 20$? ..something like that anyway.

PLUS, I was happy with the owner/manager emailing me back to my queries directly.. AND I received it the next day! VIC to ACT.

You'll make the 4th person thats purchased from BN i know in the last 2 weeks ZING!

I think you'll be happy as they all are (with the exception of one, he is still waiting delivery) :)

still waiting :( lol

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

I read something earlier either in the brain health thread about sugar alcohol and not being absorbed....just wanted to get a little bit more info on that though not sure which thread to ask it in.....can someone explain what exactly the term "sugar alcohol" defines? Like, rum? lol....and it was said it doesn't get absorbed, would that mean drinking certain alcohols would give you less calorie/carb intake than others (mixers aside)?

Also BOOYA 5kg of Bulk Nutrients chocolate WPI just rocked up. LOVE the taste, though I will be honest it isn't 100% what I expected - though I haven't had a chocolate protein mix yet and this is the highest % mix I've had so far.

Shit just got real.

I had an interesting discussion about cheat meals recently.

Many people see them as an out for people who simply cannot strictly diet.

This isn't true, in fact, cheat meals serve a key purpose (or a dual purpose):

1: They trick your body into thinking that it is getting ample nutrients/calories, therefore, your body is less likely to go into starvation mode and do its absolute best to hold onto fat stores.

2: They keep you sane/more likely to stick to your diet and can be motivating. I especially look forward to my cheat meals whilst cutting.

Cheat meals are the safer option when compared to 'cheat days', you risk binging too hard on a cheat day lol. But if you can keep it within reason and it works, why not?

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

    • All my Polish car culture insight comes from watching Nightride. So I half expect this to get 1UZ swapped eventually?! Are you going to drive it in winter? I'm always curious how ATTESA would hold up in the snow. There isn't that much opportunity to try it in Australia.  
    • My steering lock unit on my Infiniti G37 has failed. The car is a local 2012 Infiniti G37 (Q60 ) I need to replace the unit My local mechanic said i need to buy a complete steering wheel assembly. Does anybody no any mechanics in Gold Coast or Brisbane who can fix this issue or where i can buy just the Steering lock control unit. Thanks
    • thanks, will conduct myself accordingly. i unfortunately put about 150 miles on the car before reading this thread again, however no PS issues, and definitely no turbo issues. it spools normally and still feels fast to me, probably because my previous car was an N/A auto sedan...gonna go fix the PS vacuum line though lol. safe to say, got what i came to this thread for. thanks  
    • Agreed, I've never seen a 260RS specific manual. As GTSBoy said it will mostly be stagea other than the engine loom https://www.hgeconsulting.com.au/stageaservicemanual.pdf
