On a budget at mo can only afford crap arse horleys 80% whey.

how bad is it compared to the EAS and Balance protiens I usually get?

its better than nothing.. i reckon this "reactive 100% pure nz whey" is the biznis eh and its well priced at the moment.. google it

Its whey protein concentrate. A 'serving' will net you 17gms of protein, so I'd add another half serve if you are using it post w/o.

The EAS and Balance 100% Whey are WPC/WPI blends, but are really about 85% WPC. I usually buy these because they are cheap and I get it cheaper through work.

In short, its fine, but probably works out more expensive when you factor in how much you will go through.

How much are you paying for it? I can do the top brands for a similar price to Horleys. PM me if you want more details.

Otherwise I find Ballance to be a much better product.

I get the Balance most the time, or musahi bulk.

In the supermarket they charge almost $25-$30 for a 450g container of Horleys or sportsfood protein powder.

Or you can blow $50 and buy there 750g EAS.

before I was going to rebel sports and spending $40 on a large balance.

still expensive tho.

Support New Zealand and buy Red 8 protein.

Is it a NZ brand? I never knew that. (Or if I did, it had got buried in a dark corner of my brain under a pile of useless trivia)

[weener lad]

Try Woolys if you have a one card you can norm get EAS (750g) Whey for $36. Failing that you might find its actually cheaper in the long run to buy a good quality protein (follow the link) like 2.3kg 100% whey.

I always found that pharma sport 100% whey was the way to go. mixed heaps better than horleys and not much more expensive when you find it on sale. saying that i heard horleys has changed their recipe
