Hey guys, I want to add a during workout shake deal to mix with gatorade or whatever. Which fruit flavored protein do you recommend? obviously i cant be mixing my ON100 double rich chocolate or whatever with lemon lime gatorade....

much obliged.

Ive seen quite a few mix the vanilla ON with Orange Gatorade. There are many fruit varieties by companies now.

I agree with Jpoole. Nectar flavors are really good.

is it better to mix whey protein with fruit juice instead of gatorade? or does it not really make a big difference? thank you

Short answer: I don't think it matters much.

Long answer: I mix with grape gatorade. I buy a big can of the Gatorade powder. It'll make about 8 gallons for about $7.00. Pretty cheap. I fill up an empty 32 oz. Gatorade bottle. After my work out I'll drink it down a bit (about 1/3 of the way), dump in a couple scoops of protein, shake it up and chug the rest. I figure with 32 oz of Gatorade plus two scoops of protein I'll be getting about 65 grams of carbs (mostly sugar). That should be enough to cause the desired insulin spike and help with uptake. If I want more carbs, sometimes I'll chase it with a Coke.
