    Hi All,

    Im looking at buying impact whey protein and thermopure, but can I take them together. If so, when should I be taking them?
    My overall goal is to lose fat and build lean muscle. Im working out 4 times a week in the gym and swimming once a week.

    Any advice is much appreciated.

    Ok if you have already bought them and your diet is in shape where your eating at a defecit then I would suggest you take them this way:

    -45 mins before preworkout: Thermopure as recommended & Impact whey (2 scoops) +water

    - Post Workout: Impact Whey (2 scoops)

    Would taking them together not reduce the effectiveness? Two scoops isn't really needed either side of a workout either in my opinion
    Do you want 5% off your first order and advice? Smash in MP72962 when you order

    Yea but on a cut, I would take at least 2 scoops, as 1 scoop is about 18-19g protein, and of course not all that protein will go to the muscles directly, may be used for glycogen etc, so increasing protein is good to ensure a good supply is availiable in the body.

    1 scoop is not 18-19g protein!
    my 1scoop is 30g of whey, so 24g protein mate

    and 4 scoops is 4 x 120kcals = 480kcals, that's like a meal to some people!

    i would have just them PWO, if you eat right before a session, then that will be adequate!

    and it would be better to have 4 scoops spread out through the day, then having 4 in the space of about 2hours!

    I would not suggest taking them together at all.

    Not unless you want to burp what feels like molten lava. I'd highly recommend a meal atleast 1 hour before you intend to warm up and take the thermopure just as you begin to warm up for your workout.

    It does not go well with food or liquid.(except water)

    Yea suj your right but i usually go by the amount as stated on Impact Whey Protein product page, I go by the recommended amount stated below:

    add 1 MP large scoop (25g)
    Which is approx 19.5g of protein as is, Whereas per 30g there is 23.6g of protein, Therefore 2 scoops = 39g of protein = 156kcals, with exception to carbs and fats in the product. I dont know just my thoughts lol

    my bad khris, just when i weighed my large scoop, it was 30.6g (so about 24g protein lol)

    but a meal is much better before a sesh khris, you get nutrition and minerals/vitamins, that a whey shake just hasn't got!
