Milkshake Anyone?

What would you say if I told you that you could have a tasty milkshake 3 times a day, not only that but it was a huge advantage to your muscle growth. Its not witchcraft but its bloody close.

This post is of course about the protein supplements I use. For those who do not know protein is what is needed to grow and is critical in growing muscle. As I am going after lean muscle I use PHD Diet Whey, its a low calories high protein mix of protein. I did say it was a milkshake but I have it with water instead of milk as its less calories and goes into your system quicker.

Lean muscle - because no one wants to be so much of a beefcake they cant fit through the door or put on a jacket.

The best time to take the shakes are:

• First thing in the morning
• 30 minuets before work out
• Straight after a work out
• Before bed

The cheapest place to get it is Monster Supplements which offered free delivery on all products. I decided to get a 2KG tub PHD Diet Whey, it also came with a free sachet of a protein that is designed for recovery, a free mini protein shaker and best of all a bottle of lean degree tablets.

Apart from parting with my money, the hardest part about going for this bulk purchase was deciding upon a flavour to commit to for 2 months! I have tried all but one flavour (from the 1KG bags I used to get) and here is my opinion on the flavours:

• Strawberry (Sucked)
• Chocolate Orange (Joint best)
• White Chocolate (Joint best)
• Belgian Chocolate (Bit boring)
• Vanilla (Not had I think it would be boring though)

I went for White Chocolate :P

Lean degree by its self is £35 and has huge advantages, it stops Cortisal which is a stress hormone that stops you eating into your fat stores from being produced. It also aids with getting lean muscle and apparently has rapid results. Hell anything that says "Do not take after 5pm must be good right? Just hope the reason for it is not similar to that off Gremlins. I will keep you updated on the out come of this.
