Last week, a guy at the gym came up to me and said:
“Man, you are strong.” (I had just finished up some chin-ups with an additional 90 pounds strapped to my waist.)
I said “thanks.” And then waited for what I knew was coming next.
“So… what kinda protein you use?”
I get this question — both online and in real life — constantly.
For some reason people think the type of protein powder a person uses is the key to their success.
So let me spell it out for you: The type of protein powder I use has about as much impact on my success as the type of coffee I drink.
It really doesn’t make that big of difference in the grand scheme of things.
However, I know many of you are still going to ask exactly what brand I use. So here we go.
I prefer Tim Horton’s or Dunkin Donuts brand coffee. There. Are you happy now?
Oh, the protein.
Ok fine.
Here is the exact brand I’ve been using for the past few years. Like I said, I don’t think it does anything magical. But it tastes good and I don’t use very much of it so a couple of jugs lasts me 6 months.
Dymatize Nutrition Elite Whey Shake, Chocolate Fudge, 5 Pound
Hope that helps.
