Newbie.....Couple Questions?

Hey guys just recently got onto the site...(love this place by the way, awesome products, and some great info...) and was wanting to know what a good daily protein would be? I have the big blast and beefcake right now but isnt the dextrose and the rilose in big blast only good for workout time? Big Blast has 44grams of protein, cant your body only absorb like 30 grams at a time. And what you guys think about the recovery formula for post-workout? Any help on this would be awesome thanks...

i think a good all day protein would be a mixture of 50/50 protein ... id go with heliogen casein with CFM whey iso. or biofresh... then eat your carbs from like rice, fruits and bread. i assume you are trying to gain mass, if you want to add carbs use oatmuscle throughout the day. do like a 50% oatmuscle with 20% helio, 20%CFM, and 10% EFA or other type of fat you prefer. as a custom formula.

or just simply go with Victoria milk protein.


I dont think 44grams of protein is too much. im sure the sources in those formulas are multisourced and digestion rates vary which allow for some proteins to immediately absorb while others take a little longer time.

as a quality booster- add some super bovine 5-10g per serving if u are trying to gain size as well as just overall protein quality.

There really isn't much data as to how much protein can be absorbed at a time, however it is likely that the more you weigh, the more you will be able to absorb. If you are trying to bulk, big blast is a good idea since the dextrose will make you hungrier faster than oatmuscle or more natural (rice, sweet potatoes) carbs. If you have any ideals of staying lean, go with oatmuscle or the whole carbs instead of the fast carbs. The Recovery formula appears to be a good one (I have never tried it), and I agree with ninjaalbert super plasma is worth it.

just my two cents, but it was about a year ago when we had a discussion about exactly how much protein one could actually absorb.

just remember, ease into your protein intake, sitting down to 50 grams of protein and i mean real stuff; not the crap you see at gnc or some other bs websites.

Plasma is worth the money 10-20 grams with your shake is enough.

try using the custom lab to mess around with formulas and if you need further info, let us know

ps

welcome

I bet you I referred you here from the BB.com boards, huh? D.d.c.

Alex you owe me for all this business. I know you've paid me in full with low prices, but I'm thinking a shipping deal might be a nice extra =)

Awesome guys thanks for all the info....Im really diggin all the info on here and people who actually know what they are talking about....protein is comsuming my life....lol just kidding.. and yes trying to bulk for the winter so gaining weight is no problem at all... ill screw around on the custom lab and ill have to grab a daily protein, a pre-workout protein( like 30 min before) the post workout.....and I just saw the night protein right before bed then maybe ill throw some flax oil in with it...( heard it slows digestion down) and I found this place by an article on grams of protein per day typing it in through yahoo.
