What type of protein is everyone using? Are you buying a whey or isolate, or do you use both?

For me it's whey protein, mostly because of the cost. I know you get what you pay for sometimes, but my body seems to respond well from it. Maybe it would respond better from isolate, I don't know. I do plan on trying an isolate just so I know if I respond better or not.

I usually use either Designer Whey, EAS Simply Whey, or NOW Whey.

I use a couple different kinds throughout the day just so my body gets a bit of variety. Usually Myoplex MRP, designer whey, and isopure.
I have some Schwartz MRP (MX1) on the way to try, at DPSQ's recommendation.

I usually use one that has a mix of concentrate and isolate.

If you want the best, buy whey isolate. Highest quality, purest protein with little to no sugar or carbs.

I like Prolab's Whey Isolate. Mixes and tastes better than anything else I've tried.....designer, nitro tech, optimum, gnc, vpx, isopure, sport pharma, and many others. I try other proteins but I always come back to prolab's.

I also use their Lean Mass Matrix MRPs. Used to drink Myoplex but I like the taste of this better and it mixes so easily. Been drinking 2 a day for the last 2 years and I never get tired of the chocolate!

Ive used myoplex, optimum, and gnc, but lately Ive been using just gnc mega whey. The price is good plus with the mega whey you get 40 grams of whey, plus 5 grams of free-form glutamine and 3 grams of bcaa. It is concentrate, but there is only 5 grams of carbs and 3 grams of suger. It mixes well with water or milk also.

I try to stick with an isolate, just because the isolates have less lactose, and I have a terrible problem digesting lactose.
