Just out if pure curiosity how many protein shakes a day do you drink?

zero for me..solid food only protein shakes are close to worthless
how much do weight ?? you dont need to ingest that much protein,half of it goes to waste,you can grow with less than 300 grams..
the only difference i see when i drink shakes is that i look watery and it raises my triglycerides ..supplements are way to expensive in europe.if i lived in the usa i would consider using them
we have cheap and easy to find gear tho
lol mvsf1 did the math, I didn't even knew I was eating that much, I just ate what I found reasonable to me. I'm 88kg right now, shooting for 90 at the end of the year.
I live in europe and you can find cheap supplements here, if you know where to buy and dont fall into branding hype.
Yeah, the math is correct, believe me. You are eating 5000kcal per day, LOL. Anyway, I don't think whey would make you watery, that's the first time I heard it. I'm eating 200-220 grams of protein a day, and I wouldn't do it if I must take another 300 grams os chicken breast instead 2 and a halpf scoops of whey. And whey is cheaper...
YES, ain't nothing like good ol' eggs/chicken/tuna (I eat them everyday) but don't you get tired of eating? I mean, you can have a shake in 60 seconds, I don't think you could have 2 cans of tuna in that time...
Apples and oranges...
88 kg is good for someone at your age and you're quite lean also..good for you..how many meals you eat per day? 5 meals with a good amount of protein on each of them will be enough for you to grow and it would be more healthy + i promise that you will look leaner and dryer if you give up the shakes..i used to drink shakes for many years until i found out i look better(not bigger) without them
i understand what you say about cheap supplements.im sure not getting any muscletech thing is that a 5 pound optimum nutrition protein costs 60 euros here while on the other hand a 10 week supply of pharmaceutical grade testosterone costs 50 eyros.so i prefer to do a cycle once in a year instead of protein shakes and creatines...you re still young and you should stay away from gear for now but in the future if you will be temped like i did.as to if you are going to take it..is your choice
Forgive me, but you look nothing like someone who has done gear, especially 3 cycles. I'm not trying to be a dick, but I'm 20 y/o, natty, done 4 shows and look bigger than you. There's something clearly wrong with your nutrition or training.
On topic:
I usually drink 1 protein shake, 1-2 BCAA/glutamine shakes and one pre-wokrout shake on training day. On off days, or on days when I do cardio only, I try to avoid protein shakes and might drink a BCAA shake. Solid food is way better for your digestive system.
