A Pro V type blend from Labrada

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 06-20-2005, 12:18 PM

Ok, I am trying to find a blend comparable to the taste of LAbrada's Pro V. I know you have the best prices. I created this blend from your site, TPC.

Total
45% Whey Protein Concentrate $ 4.19
$18.85
15% Whey Protein Isolate Ion-exchange $ 8.33
$12.49
15% Whey Protein Isolate Microfiltration $ 7.20
$10.8
10% Calcium Caseinate $ 6.69
$6.69
15% Egg White Protein $ 7.49
$11.23

Flavor
Vanilla

Sweetner
sucralose

TPC, do you think this looks on target to being somewhat like Pro V? I know it cant be perfect but something like that would be great.

ctgblue · 06-21-2005, 08:17 AM

If you are looking for the "Mass produced vanilla taste", you need to go with the BSL vanilla.
The TP stuff is good, but VERY mild and clean tasting, not anything like Labrada/Myoplex/MetRX flavoring
I would actually suggest getting it UNFLAVORED and getting the flavor packs, that way you can flavor to the strength YOU like.

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 06-21-2005, 09:26 AM

Well, then I guess I will stay with True Protein. So CTG, there are flavor packs I can get? What are these and where can I get them?

tpc · 06-21-2005, 03:47 PM

you look about on target with the mix, great mix by the way. i would recommend going with the bsl vanilla as well, if you are wanting a more strong retail taste type product. you can order the flavor packs seperatly on our site as well.

thanks,
doug

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 06-22-2005, 12:55 AM

Awesome. Thanks! Gonna order tomorrow night.

ctgblue · 06-22-2005, 08:52 AM

I would suggest ordering the BSL Vanilla, and trying some of the TPC flavor packs you may like.
I do not suggest grape or lemonade, but the Fruit Punch and Strawberry Kiwi are very good. If you like Strawberry, try the TPC if you like it light, the BSL if you like it strong.
Order your protein UNFLAVORED and sweetened with your choice of sweeteners. I like aspartame.
I add ground oats, MCT powder, and milled flax seeds to my MRP mix (your mix above is close, I use 40% WPC, 30% Calc cas, and 30% egg white currently) and the BSL vanilla with this blend is just frikkin awesome. The milled flax seeds add a nutty taste and the end result is almost an oatmeal cookie flavor. Add a dash of cinnamon and you're there. Buy some guar gum or xanthan gum to thicken it in the blender, 1/8-1/4 tsp in a 20 oz shake will do it.
I would suggest getting a couple of lbs of the Cold Filtered ISO too, you cannot beat the price on that stuff and it is pefect to blend with some simple carbs for post workout. This stuff is perfect for the Fruit Punch or Straw Kiwi and a shaker cup.

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 06-29-2005, 01:22 PM

CTG, I took your advice. I just ordered 5 lbs to make sure Tam and I like it. Can't wait.

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 07-06-2005, 09:59 PM

Should be here tomorrow! YES!!!

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 07-07-2005, 05:05 PM

I GOT IT! Trying it.....

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 07-07-2005, 05:14 PM

PERFECT

Thanks TPC! AWESOME AWESOME BLEND! And the texture is truly the BEST I have ever had. This is better than Labrada!

w8liftr · 07-07-2005, 05:21 PM

Did you get it flavored or plain with the flavor pack?

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 07-07-2005, 05:37 PM

Yeah I bought the BSL vanilla. VERY GOOD!

mindraper · 07-07-2005, 05:59 PM

Hey future what's so good about the mix and the texture? Isit thick?

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 07-07-2005, 06:54 PM

Well, look at my mix above. Just has ALOT of awesome stuff for a great blend. And the texture wasnt water. Just a little thickness. Very, very slight. I liked it alot. I use water on my mix and I hate when it's watery. THIS IS PERFECT.

07-07-2005, 07:50 PM

damn so it tastes good with water?

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 07-07-2005, 10:45 PM

Oh yes! Like mothers milk...well that sounds gross but you know what I mean.

CokeNaSmilee · 07-11-2005, 03:09 PM

i just ordered this blend...sounds great!

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 07-13-2005, 11:54 AM

Yes, it is.

ctgblue · 07-21-2005, 02:16 PM

I add a little xanthan gum to the mix to thicken it as I add oats as my carb source and without the gum, they sink to the bottom. This plus MCT powder makes it awesome and creamy. I also use water and ice.

**Massive G** · 07-23-2005, 04:27 PM

I personally wouldn't mix oats with flax seeds and MCT as carbs+ fat= FAT for me.
good recipes though.

Junior73 · 08-19-2005, 03:29 PM

Some time you guys make a little too good to be true, but will try some of the different mixes, have pertty much stuck to ON 100% which alot of other sites recomend. Bloat fealing gets too you after a wile.

will have to get a discount code if I like it, and then tell all my friends!!!!

Shawn "Future" Bellon · 08-19-2005, 03:43 PM

Nothing too good to be ture about this blend. My gf and I love it.

what blend are you using now ?

02-26-2006, 02:49 PM

this has to be the best blend ive ever tried. thanks future. i dont think im gonna have it any other way from now on. i got the same exact blend flavored with bsl vanilla and added aminogen.

my friend thought my cold filtration was pretty gross (with bsl chocolate flavor packs). Then once i got this in she smelled (smelt?) it, and downed a quarter of my shake.

thanks future.
