I have been pounding whey protein isolate for about 3 weeks now...and I can definately tell the difference in size.
I have also been eating protein bars from sams (30g of protein) I picked up for like $15.
Had a little "bloating" at first...but body is now adjusted...nothing else.

yes, whey is perfectly fine. It is probably the greatest invention for bodybuilders since weights.
Just try not to depend on strictly whey protein. Get your protein from sources such as chicken breasts, turkey, fish, eggs, etc.
I have lifted seriously for a long time, if u have any questions i will be happy to assist u

eat 6 small meals a day. Depending on ur weight, u need to figure out your maintenance cals, and go from there....adding or subtracting depending if u are trying to bulk or lose weight.
try to get in 1g/protein per lb of bodyweight.....
I feel that is the problem with most people's routines. They switch it up too often (i.e. changing from session to session). That is a definite no-no in bodybuilding. You MUST stick with someone and see how your body adapts. My full body routine isnt really boring at all,...especially when u are only taking 2 min. rest in between set (go ahead and try it, u wont be bored, trust me on this). With the question regarding other parts of my legs, well, squats hit the entire leg, and im doing squats 3x a week. I believe that is effecient enought to cover my legs. The problem is people want to do little exerices (i.e, wrist curls, cable movements, machines, etc), and dont rely on compound exercises to make them grow.....to each his own....
Correct. And so much better than protien from meat. It's a difference maker.
Some of them are incredibly delecious too. I remember busting ass just to get to that shake.
But, like anything else. Some of them arent good. They either dont mix well or dont taste great. Mixability is very important.
I like Champion Nutrition or GNC, I think those are just fine. Of course there are others that are more expensive. More designer and advanced, in terms of the technology used and how your body will absorb it.

my fav. whey proteins:
1) nectar caribbean cooler
2) substance WPI watermelon
3) ON PB
4) substance WPI grape...
ps. please dont buy from GNC. That company rips more of the american public off they u could imagine. Their prices are absolutely grotesque, and their products are pretty much shit. Only exception is their mega men mulitvitamin.
OPtimum nutrition is the best bang for the buck easily.
Auggiedawg, I've had optimum! You are right that one is very good. Cant believe I forgot about it. Mixes well, tastes awesome 5 pounds for 35$ cant go wrong there.
I only said GNC, because it mixes well and tastes good. Well the chocolate is good anyways. Yeah, I wouldnt do it unless its on sale. It can easily be over priced like you say.
