I am into weight lifting now.
Any opinions about what is best/healthiest source of protein for building up muscle?
As far as taste for me, Meat > Tofu > Powder.

meat, specifically fish (tuna is nice and cheep). If you go with Protein powder make sure it has a calcium supplement included.

Cool, the protein powder I got is MetRX from Trader Joes which has calcium in it too. So a lean meat + calcium supplement will get the trick done?
