While waiting for the next Amino Z deal, I've been looking to stock up on some whey protein concentrate (WPC) and found this deal at BlackBelt Protein. Their WPC is currently 10% off the standard price, which makes it decent value.
Here's the rundown of the deals:
- Whey Protein Concentrate from $30.15 per kg if you buy the 10kg bag, which is a good price for WPC.
- They've also got their "Heisenberg" Pre-Workout at 50% off, dropping it to just $22.50. I picked this up too, and it's good value.
A quick note on shipping: It's a flat rate of $9.99. If it's your first time ordering from BlackBelt Protein, you can sign up on their site for a free shipping code, which is what I did.
Here’s how their WPC pricing breaks down by weight:
Quantity (KG) | Price (AUD) | Price per KG (AUD) |
---|---|---|
1 | $36.00 | $36.00 |
2 | $64.80 | $32.40 |
3 | $93.15 | $31.05 |
4 | $122.40 | $30.60 |
5 | $152.10 | $30.42 |
10 | $301.50 | $30.15 |
How does this compare to other major protein retailers?
I did a quick comparison of WPC (or equivalent) prices from other popular supplement sites. These are generally the lowest per-kg prices I could find, usually for larger bulk buys. Keep in mind that prices on these sites can change frequently with sales, and don't always include shipping unless noted.
Retailer | Product (WPC) | Lowest Price per KG (AUD) | Notes |
---|---|---|---|
BlackBelt Protein | Whey Protein Concentrate | $30.15 | (10kg purchase). Currently 10% off. |
Amino Z | Amino Z Simply Whey (Unflavoured) | ~$49.94 | (1kg Club Price). Their "Simply Whey" (unflavoured) for 1kg is typically around $49.94. Their main WPC can be more expensive. Deals vary significantly. |
Bulk Nutrients | Whey Protein Concentrate | $36.75 | (20kg purchase). 1kg is $42.00. Bulk Nutrients often has free shipping over a certain order value. |
Myprotein | Impact Whey Protein | ~$30 - $80+ | Prices fluctuate heavily with sales and discount codes. You might find it around $30/kg during major sales, but standard prices can be much higher (e.g., a 5kg vanilla is currently $259.99 = $52/kg before discounts, with 1kg around $83.80). |
A couple of things to note about BlackBelt Protein WPC:
- It's advertised as Australian grass-fed and blended here, which is a good point for some.
- From reviews, the flavours can be a bit hit or miss – some find them bland or a bit artificial. So, if you're someone who just wants the macros and isn't too concerned about gourmet taste, this could be a really solid value buy.
Hopefully, this helps anyone else looking to get some good value protein!
