Customer Questions & Answers
-
Question: Body Fortress Super Advanced has 30 gr protein per scoop, and ON has 24 gr. what's the difference?
Answer: ON Gold Standard has a 31g serving size, and Body Fortress Super Advanced Isolate has a 38g serving size. Larger serving size = more protein. It's really as simple as that. It's got nothing to do with the "bro science" in some of the answers. To be sure, if you convert them to the same 31 gram serving size, then ON has 24 grams of protein, and Body Fortress has 24.5 grams of protein. Companies play around with the serving sizes so they can put "60 grams of protein!!!!!!" in the advertising, but if you do the math, then it's usually about the same amount. -
Question: Will consuming more whey (protein) help my rotator cuff tear heal?
Answer: I'm currently sitting here with a second surgery on my shoulder. First time was labrum tear and second was latarjet. I can say with 100% confidence drinking this will not help heal your rotator cuff. You posted this in 2013 and it is 3 years later, if you haven't seen a specialist and it hasn't given you problems that you are one lucky SOB. If it's still giving you problems, see a specialist or do PT. You probably need surgery depending on the tear. You don't want to live with that un-repaired the rest of your life haha. -
Question: If I were to make protein shakes with single serving size portions about 5 days/week, how long do you think a 2 lb container would last me? 5 lb? THX
Answer: 2lbs = 29 servings. Roughly, 5 days/week with a 4 week month is about 20 servings (excluding weekends). That leaves you with roughly 9 servings for the month left. I work out everyday but only take a shake after a workout. 2 lbs lasts me about a month. 5 lbs = 75 servings. For me, a 5 lb tub would easily be 2 months maybe 2.5. If you plan on staying with ON, it's more cost-effective to purchase the 5 lb tub depending on the vendor. Hope this helps. -
Question: I ordered the 2 pound container. I opened it and don't see a scoop and the powder only goes to about halfway up the container. Is this normal?
Answer: I worked R&D with a company that made powder supplements and determining correct package size for new products was part of my job. It’s completely normal to have products look only half full. There are various powders of various densities in each product, and the normal “spec” is to be about 3/4 full during packaging without anything causing the powder to pack tighter. Factor in shipping, sitting time, people grabbing it and setting it down, and that powder compresses more over time. So just find your scoop and shake it up. Count how many servings you actually got out of it. It’s probably fine. -
Question: Does this protein helps you lose weight and build muscle at the same time ?
Answer: Yes, you can lose weight and build muscle at the same time as long as you are taking in enough protein and stay in a caloric deficit at the same time. It's almost impossible to do this without taking in protein power as a protein supplement. -
Question: I am training for a marathon and do not want to bulk up, would this product work for me?
Answer: Eating more protein will not make you bulk up. Eating, lifting heavy and resting will bulk you up. This is ideal for eating after your run. You should also eat some sugar (like tossing a handful of M&M's into the blender) to replenish your glycogen. Another good idea is to have some of their casein protein right before you go to bed. Whey is good first thing in the morning and after a workout (it is fast digesting) and casein is good before bed. -
Question: shelf life after opening whey protein powder
Answer: I had a canister from 2 years ago that was put away after knee surgery. I stopped working out but have recently gotten back into it and I'm using the old tub - it says it expired this March but as of 2 months ago, I have gained 8lbs of muscle and lost a considerable amount of fat using this protein with crossfit. I would wager that the expiration dates are more of an accountability waiver than anything. -
Question: Not to be rude, but getting really tired of reviews only being about the taste. What are your results?
Answer: I started lifting about five months ago. Three weeks in I plateaued, and after tracking my diet I realized I was only getting about 20-40g of protein a day. That's plenty for a sedentary person to stay healthy, but not enough to build muscle quickly. I started taking ON and started seeing linear progression for the next three months, even while on a cut. While I'm no longer seeing linear progression (cuts suck), I'm still gaining strength just more slowly now that I don't have a much of a fat reserve to make up the difference. I've successfully lost 15 lbs so far. Meanwhile, my lifts have gone from barely being able to move the bar to over 135 for all the major lifts (squats and deadlifts are over 200). While that's not an impressive amount of strength gain over five months, I've been eating at a deficit the entire time so I needed a huge amount of protein to keep my body from cannibalizing muscle to make up the difference. Protein supplements like ON make it much easier to get such a high amount of protein while still eating a restricted calorie diet. -
Question: How many mg of L-Arginine per scoop?
Answer: 436mg -
Question: Which one taste better strawberry or cookies and cream?
Answer: Cookies & Cream tastes better IMO. Strawberry is a tricky flavor to get right, apparently; I've only tasted a few brands that got it right.
