Optimum Nutrition Whey Gold Standard

Optimum Nutrition is one of our favourite brands in our range at Boss – for good reason! Winner of Supplement of the Year on three occasions and nine-time winner of Protein Powder of the year, Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein is one of the best protein powders on the market.

Every serving of this exceptional blend of high-quality whey protein isolates, concentrate and whey peptides contains a whopping 24 grams of high-quality protein. It is also rich in naturally occurring branch-chain amino acids (BCAAs), which are scientifically proven to boost muscle protein synthesis while reducing muscle damage and soreness.

It’s not just full of the good stuff. Optimum Nutrition provides a power-packed protein powder that is low in sugar, lactose and fat – so you get more of the nutrients you want. Whether you’re looking to put on weight or lose it, taking protein in the right doses is a really useful way to reach your goals sustainably.

Please remember that protein supplements are not intended to replace meals.

Casein protein

You will have noticed that a lot of Optimum Nutrition protein powders are derived from different ingredients and might be wondering what the differences are between whey protein and casein protein. Protein supplements function by releasing amino acids in your body, and the rate at which they are released will change your experience drastically.

Casein is another nutrient that gets derived from milk. Your body absorbs it and releases amino acids more slowly than whey, giving you longer-lasting energy. However, it is not as good as whey at building muscle. So if you want serious mass, whey is probably the best choice for you.

Protecting your muscles

If you’re a mass gainer, try combining your protein powder with Optimum Nutrition Amino Energy to enhance your muscle recovery, energy, and focus. We also recommend trying out the Gold Standard Pre Workout to improve your performance during your workouts. Pre workout also serves to improve your attention, energy, and overall enjoyment of building your fitness.

Here at Boss Nutrition, we are all about making your fitness experience as seamless and enjoyable as possible. A big part of that is looking after your muscles and perfecting your nutrient intake, which is really what provides the building blocks for fruitful exercise. Along with the protein and pre workout that we have recommended, taking fish oil also has many benefits for athletes in reducing muscle soreness.

Our team at Boss Nutrition would like to note that maintaining a healthy diet in conjunction with taking our supplements is the most effective way to get the results you want to see. Eating lots of fruits and vegetables will improve your vitamin intake and accelerate your changes.

Protein powder vs protein bars

If you’re confused about what protein products would be best for you, the key advantages of each are:

• Protein shakes give you fast-acting protein right after a workout. They require little effort to make and protein powder can also go in other foods such as your morning porridge.
• Protein bars are great treats to bring with you if you’re expecting a busy day and need an on-the-go boost.

How to use your protein powder

As our Gold Standard Whey is fully instantaneous, it mixes easily with water, dairy and plant-based milk, whether in your protein shaker or just in a glass with a spoon. That makes it quick and easy to consume first thing in the morning, right after a workout or even as a muscle-boosting snack.

Plus, with over 15 flavours available here at Boss Nutrition, including exciting options like Vanilla Ice Cream flavour, Strawberry Banana flavour, and Salted Caramel flavour, you’re sure to find an option that fits your taste buds.

This exceptional protein powder is good for more than just shakes, too. It’s excellent as an addition to protein pancakes, ice cream, cookies and cakes or for boosting the nutritional value of meals and snacks.

The athlete’s gold standard nutritional support

Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Whey supports muscle repair and growth, helping your body recover after each training session. With digestive enzymes designed to speed up absorption, it kick-starts muscle growth immediately after intake.

This delicious, highly satiating protein powder is also an essential addition during cutting season. It boosts the metabolism, helps maintain muscle mass while you trim unwanted fat away and fills you up, reducing the temptation to turn every day into a cheat day. (Plus, it has a delicious double rich chocolate flavour, so it satisfies that craving anyway).

Studies have even suggested that protein may:

• Lower blood pressure
• Promote insulin sensitivity
• Moderate blood sugar levels
• Reduce chronic inflammation
• Lower cholesterol levels
• Improve the body’s antioxidant defences

Easy to digest, gluten-free and packed full of fantastic nutrients, this whey protein powder is truly the gold standard for almost any avid gym-goer or athlete looking for a high-quality, great-tasting source of protein.

With a unique formula specially engineered to get you the best possible results from your training, it’s no surprise that this is one of the world’s best selling whey protein powders.

By using Gold Standard Whey protein after your workout, you’ll get to maximise muscle development and ensure that your body’s in the best shape possible by the time your next training session rolls around.
