Rep Power: 43 | | | strange that there is no scoop.
it should say how much proiten and carbs are in 100g. this is really improtant. its gonna be in the area of 60g protien and 4g of carbs, or 14g protien and 70g carbs.
(this is really ruff, but you get the idea)
if its higher on carbs than protien then throw it out the window or make a cake cos you just get a tub of choc flour. high carb protien powder is crap, it looks like its cheap, but tastes bad, has no protien in it and the carbs you should get from your food anyway.

Rep Power: 59 | | | kinda on the same note, a food scale is a good investment. i found that most scoops that come with powders come out short. the dymatize powder i have now, the serving size is 30 grams but the scoop gives 26. |

Rep Power: 43 | | | yeah thats great. When your buying protien all you need to look at is the amount of protien per 100g and thats its pure whey. So thats one is fine.
do you know how much protien you need a day? do you know how to work it out and use the powder to supliment?
