Protein supplement powder questions

[WinkOsmosis]

I bought some chocolate flavor Designer Whey. Does this stuff taste good? That other thread only had comments on french vanilla. If I find out it doesn't taste good, I'll return it.

How many teaspoons is a level scoop?

I'm just starting this weight training thing. I weigh about 135lbs, 5'8". How many grams of protein should I take?

Doesen't it come with a scoop?

Yes. Now I see it. My bad.

I tasted some of the powder. Tastes pretty good.

Taste is a matter or personal opinion. Only you can decide if it tastes good or not.

I guess I'll use one scoop for now.

optimally you'd take some in the morning, some right after you workout with grape juice (per designer whey faq), and some before you go to bed.

I love the stuff and get vanilla because its the hardest to get sick of and can be mixed in more things than something with a stronger flavor like chocolate, imo.

just follow the directions on it....

mine is 3 scoops....

and from my experience none of it tastes good... chug it

 

[WinkOsmosis]

Directions say 1-3 scoops "upon rising, immediately after workout, before bed".

I use Prolabs Advanced Whey, Chocolate and Vanilla. Both are very good. 1 scoop to 6-8oz. of milk or water.

I usually drink 12 oz. for breakfast and at least one in the evening.
