I started working out a few days ago, and after reading plethora of articles, eventually decided to start on supplementary protein, to supplement and help with my time at the gym. and I mean’supplementary’, which means my normal diet continued as usual.
I had made up my mind about protein and was all set. But the plethora of products available in the market left me baffled. Yes, I would consume protein. But which one? Which one would be best for gains?
I was complete clueless at first. I had read about the different types of proteins, and the different effects they had and couldn’t decide which one would be best for me. I wanted a product that would be able to provide the benefits of various different kinds of proteins without having to purchase multiple jars and having to mix them.
I eventually came to know about British Nutritions Power Protein. This was the perfect product for me. It has a fusion blend of protein.
Whey Protein: "Fast Acting Protein"; readily absorbed into the body. Great for post-workouts.
Soy Protein Isolate: "Intermediate Acting Protein"; absorbed slower than the whey protein.
Casein: "Slow Acting Protein" which requires several hours to be digested.
In this way, I could obtain the benefit of all types of proteins and also make sure my body had a constant supply of proteins throughout the day.
Albeit the product seemed great, I was a bit skeptical at first. I had read that many such supplements are just gimmicks and would leave just you with an empty pocket. Regardless, I decided to try out the protein. I ordered the 1 kg Chocolate Flavored jar.
Contrary to my expectations, my first protein shake tasted great! And was damn easy to make too. 40 g of protein powder in 240 ml water, a few shakes and done! And within a week, I could feel a radical difference after my workouts. my gains seemed to be more pronounced! And I also got a free t-shirt with the jar.
I would wholeheartedly recommend the product to any gym enthusiast out there who is looking for some good protein at a reasonable price. It is indeed a great product. and quite inexpensive compared to the other products.
Before you buy the protein, you should ask yourself if you really need it. It’s a supplement. and I would recommend you to have it, provided you aren’t getting enough protein from your daily diet already.
When should you have the shake?
Well, I have one post-workout as that is the time my body needs protein to sustain itself from the punishment I have subjected it to at the gym. And also one just before you sleep, to sustain muscle repair and development.
If you have decided to try out the product, don’t forget to get a good shaker to compliment the protein.
