Ehh first one isn't really a good protein. Second one is over-rated and over-priced. Also, why GNC?

Since you are 16 years old I would say eat healthy , and if your going to supplement then use a "Whey Protein" don't get caught up in the hype of the quote unquote fancier versions and as far as the Muscle Milks claim to increase your bodys own natural production of creatine .... that just seems to Bunk to me... your body makes around 2.5 grams a day assuming you consume the proper amount of protein from real food sources aka , Fish eggs red meat chicken turkey , these are all muscle which have the proper amino acids to help build muscle and all tissue inside and outside of your body.

So with that in mind you should save a little money on the powder you get... if money is no object the feel free to spend money on the more expensive isolates and other types but realize there is no shortcuts and ultimately 80% of those products are for suckers looking for shortcuts.

Add a multi vitamin from Gnc , not a cheap one cause synthetic vitamins are not good for your body and can over time cause hardening of the arteries , especially dangerous around the heart and brain!

I hope you make the right decisions and continue to eat right , train hard , give yourself enough rest & take care of yourself ~!

Alright, thanks both of you. I'm currently on Rice Protein, but will switch to a cheap Whey Protein when it runs in a few weeks.

GNC because it's really close by (10 min. walk max).

Ivan, I will look into those. We have a cheap one from Costco right now, so will definitely find some of that and some Fish Oil as well. And that last sentence is my life goal.

Both products are crap IMO. They work but have fillers and are not worth the prices. I would go with Optimum Nutrition gold standard whey. It is cheap and proven. Don't get all caught up in the supplement game at your age, you have alot of growing to do and your body is filled with testosterone. I wouldn't even touch anything besides whey and a good multi till you are 21.

Alright, I'll look at that one. Thanks.
