You'll spend $30-50 for a month of good protein powder. Basic whey proteins start around $30. Premium mixes cost $50-80. The price shows how good the ingredients are. Cheaper ones have fillers that don't work as well.
A 2-pound container lasts 3-4 weeks if you use it daily. Most people use one scoop per day. Athletes might use two scoops. A 5-pound container lasts about 2-3 months for most people. Henderson's dry weather helps powder stay fresh longer.
You could, but protein powder is easier and works faster. Getting 25-30 grams of protein means eating a big chicken breast. Powder mixes fast and your muscles can use it in 30 minutes. It's also easier on your stomach after hard workouts.
Whey protein works faster and has all the nutrients your muscles need. Plant proteins take longer but work great if you can't have dairy. Pea and rice protein mixes can be as good as whey. They taste different, so we suggest trying both.
The sooner the better, but you have about 2 hours. Your muscles are ready for food within 30-60 minutes after working out. Whey protein works best for this time. If you wait too long, you miss the best recovery time.
Look for clumps, bad smells, or a weird taste. Fresh protein powder should flow well and smell good. Henderson's dry weather usually isn't a problem. But heat can hurt quality. Keep containers cool and dry, away from sunlight.
Whey isolates mix better than concentrates. Some plant proteins can be chalky, but newer formulations mix well. We'll show you how to mix any powder completely. Using a shaker bottle with a wire ball helps the most.
