Default Whey or Protein Blend?
Hey everyone, wondering if someone can help me out. When should I take a protein blend and when should I take just regular whey? Thanks!

take the blend in the morning/right before bed/during the day when you need extra protein. you can do either or all three.

take the whey within a half hour after your workout.

i'm trying to bulk so i take a blend for breakfast, once two hours before my workout, an hour after my post workout meal, and one before bed. i take the whey 30 mins after workout, which is 30 mins prior to my post work out meal.

What's the difference?
It's all 'regular' protein, the 'blend' is just a mixture of isolate & concentrate.
Do you have a strictly isolate whey as well as your blend?

Protein Blends are good at bedtime and at another time during the day to boost your protein intake. Take the whey postworkout and you can also take some whey right when you get up.

@ Cammo, I'm not sure about the concentrate or isolate. I have a tub of ON Pro Complex (a protein blend) and I am planning on buying ON 100% Whey Gold Standard. I assumed the Pro Complex blend was referring to different a mixture of types of protein such as whey, egg and casein rather than just a blend of whey concentrates and isolates...? Thanks for the help everyone! I think I will take the blend in the morning and before bed, and the other one pre and post-workout. Sound okay?

I'm pretty sure the Gold Standard is whey isolates.

At any rate, bump to what Nite said. It just depends on when you're taking what you're taking.

The ON Gold Standard is a blend of isolate & concentrate.
