Quick Thoughts on Muscle Milk

Muscle Milk is a protein shake that contains no milk but that does not matter because the stuff just tastes good.  I had plain flavor and chocolate and they both taste good.  Each 14-ounce container has 25 grams of protein, 220 calories, and 80 calories from fat.  After a really hard workout, I will drink two containers.  During long, slow training days I can drink a bottle in the middle of the workout.

Muscle Milk does not have all of the vitamins and other additives like a lot of other drinks, but it does the trick and tastes good.  When you break your muscles down, it is good to add protein after your workout.  I went out to buy some more muscle milk but the store had so much stuff, I was over whelmed by choices and left.

Muscle Milk is another product in the buy category from Alameda Runners.  After the tough string of bad products we went through, I was ready to give up and drink nothing but chocolate milk and sugar water until we hit the latest string of good products.
