Also you want to look at quality of protein vs quantity. -------------- I must not fear. Fear is the mind-killer. Fear is the little death that brings total obliteration. I will face my fear. I will permit it to pass over me and through me. And when it is gone past me I will turn to see fear's path. Where the fear has gone there will be nothing. Only I will remain

Also how much a "serving is" Nitro tech is a "name brand protein" its about 20-30 dollar a jug for 2.2lbs. an dit take 2 scoops to equal a serving 100% whey( that I take) Its about 35 dollars a jug for 5lbs. ( much better deal) an done serving is one scoop. that what I look at...........and of coarse next is taste, don't buy somthing you think is nasty and makes your throw up or somthing, try many kinds and see what works best for you. Depening on what your wanting to do, depends on how many carbs you need in it and calories in it also. If your a bigger guy and tend to store body fat eaiser, then go with low carb/ high protein blend. If your skinny then go high calorie high carb and protein. -------------- .......adversity causes some to break, but others to break records! ......minds are not vessles to be filled, but fires to be enlightened ......Confucious once said ,DO NOT play leap frog with a unicorn

Good quality for the price. -------------- If you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything....
