Unique Advantages:
- 24% BCAAs of the total protein amount.
- The best price in relation to the amount of protein.
Effectiveness
This protein is classified as high-protein, containing over 80% protein. Therefore, it can be used for the following purposes:
- For weight loss. In this case, part of regular food is replaced with protein, which allows for an increase in daily protein intake while reducing fat and carbohydrates.
- Muscle mass growth. This is straightforward; muscles are made of protein (amino acids). If your diet contains enough carbohydrates but insufficient protein (which is often the case), then protein will be very beneficial.
- Simply as a source of amino acids, including essential ones: BCAAs and others.
In addition to the above, it should be noted that this protein is whey-based. This means it is quickly absorbed, which indicates that it contains a significant amount of BCAAs and is well-suited for consumption immediately after a workout.
How to Take
Here are the main rules for intake:
- Regardless of the number of workouts, it is best to take it every day.
- Take it 1-2 times a day (depending on how much protein you are lacking from regular food). Once in the first half of the day, and the other in the second.
- It is better to take it immediately after a workout and/or between meals. But not at the same time as a main meal.
- It is best to mix with milk. Water is also fine. The amount of liquid is a matter of taste and does not matter.
- You can add creatine, BCAAs, gainers, and essentially anything you want to the protein.
- To achieve an effect, the duration of intake should be at least a month.
- The maximum duration of intake can be unlimited. This means it can be used for a lifetime without interruptions.
Dosage per intake:
- For weight under 60 kg: 25-30 grams at a time.
- For weight under 80 kg: 30-40 grams at a time.
- For weight under 100 kg: 40-50 grams at a time.
- For weight over 100 kg: 50-60 grams at a time.
Naturally, all dosages are fairly approximate. They largely depend on your overall activity, number of workouts, number of servings of protein, how much or little protein you get from regular food, etc. You can calculate your exact portion here.
I advise against focusing on the dosage indicated by the manufacturer. Since for approximately the same proteins, manufacturers can indicate completely different dosages. Typically, these are more or less adequate figures (25 - 35 grams). But sometimes it can even go up to 100 grams.
