I’ve been using ON products for last 6 months. I have used ultimate nutrition prostar and dymatize elite in past and I’d rate it on top of them. Results - 1. Gained 10 lbs of muscle. 2. Lost an incredible 8 percent bodyfat. Taste- 9.5/10, Chocolate can’t taste better than this(will be much better with milk). Mixability- 9/10. Had some lumps but stir for another 10-20 seconds and good to go or add a little water. Result- 10/10, no doubt about results. Have extra glutamine of 4 grams. Amino acid matrix is perfect. ON knows it very well otherwise it would not be the best protein selling in world. Recovery- 9.5/10 Does not feel sore the next day. Take 3-4 times daily; less if you are already having some meat in your diet. For Beginners- Go for it, don’t even give it a second thought.
