  How is the Dymatize Elite Gourmet Whey and Casein Blend different to the ISO-100, which I am currently using. (I'm new to all this)

    The ISO-100 is a pure isolate, and has a higher Protein Percentage. It also has 0 carbs and 0 fats which make it a strong candidate for PWO protein. It also has less glutamine, BCAA's.

    Where as the Blend is a blend of Ion-Exchange Whey Protein Concentrates, Whey Protein Isolates, and Whey Peptides, combined with Milk Protein rich in natural micellar caseins & caseinates plus added calcium caseinates. As well as glutamine and BCAA's and EAA's. Has a few carbs and fats also. Because of the blend it can really be taken at any time, however, because of the Caseins and the Glutamine this would be preferable as a before/after bed shake or PWO shake.

      OK.. thanks for your reply.

      I got a ISO-100 726 gms for $60, and thats apparently a discounted price by the gym.

      Just wondering if getting the Gourmet ones would be any good, for about half price (~$30 shipped).

      Since the WPI ISO-100 has a higher concentration of protein, i might just stick to it. I usually have it early afternoon, or late afternoon.

        That is a ridiculous price to be paying for less than a KG of protein! I use ON 100% Whey Double Chocolate

        It tastes great, and is extremely popular :)

        Thanks..

        It appears that Dymatize WPI is one of the dearest.
        Will look into ON 100% Whey. Never used it.

        Is ON 100% Whey the equivalent of Dymatize ISO-100 ? Nutrition-wise ?

  whats the cheapest way to get 5lb of ON protein? Any good US sites?

  Buying 1kg isnt going to last long..

    Try iherb for bulk buys they have great shipping rates. ON is a lot more expensive there, but they have other brands - EasternCulture can help you out. I like to rotate what protein I have :)

    5lb of ON is probably cheaper locally. I buy 5lb tubs for $85 from Burwood Discount Vitamins. It's on Burwood Rd on the opposite side of the station to the westfield (so the plaza side), about 500m down on the right side. It's a little red shop on the corner. This is it on google maps - http://goo.gl/maps/Qpqbg

    If you buy a few tubs they'll give it to you a bit cheaper, just ask if they can do a discount. Their 10lb bags go for around $150 but they have limited flavors with those.

    They say they will pricematch any other store but I am yet to take them up on that because they have pretty good prices anyway so if anyone knows of a cheaper store, let us know. :)

  Nope. I've received 10+ orders from them' some boxes opened and checked others untouched. But they all got delivered.

    Were they large orders or small? I'm thinking of buy a couple of tubs, around 5lbs all up

  t0x1c on 08/11/2012 - 14:45

  All small. Under 3 pounds. If you plan on getting 5 pounds might be cheaper to make 2 separate deliveries.
