Protien shake Hi it's me again. I don't know if you remember but i mentioned i wanted to gain muscle in my arms and legs so i joined a gym and i go mon,wed,and fri. I bought the amplified wheybolic 60 or something like that which i have to take almost everyday but it tastes really bad and it made my stomach hurt. I really don't want to take so do you think that in less than a year i will see results without taking the shake?? I also don't eat a lot of protein because i don't like most foods that have a lot of protein.Should i maybe try to eat protein bars?? Thanks in advance!

Hi,
The protein shake is just a supplement. If it gives you problems just forget about it.
You will certainly see results within a year, but you should try to find some sources of protein that you are ok with.
Protein bars are fine, so yeah go ahead and give those a try. Otherwise typical bodybuilder protein sources include: poultry, lean meats, tuna, salmon, other fish, cottage cheese, egg whites, and other low fat dairy products like yoghurt. Plant sources with decent protein content such as beans (particularly soy), oats, and nuts are also good. However remember plant sources are incomplete (they do not contain all the essential amino acids) so they should be mixed together.
One thing you could try to do with the shake is to use it to "spike" up some foods in small amounts. It might still taste gross to you lol, so use at own risk :D I sometimes add some to yoghurt for example.
Thats pretty much it :) ]
