Pros and cons of protein bars

Usualy after workout i take a protein shake with a banana or some ricecakes,or nowdays i take about 80g of some muscetech gainer from vich i get like...25g of protein and about 40g of carbs but not so much sugar,and very few grams of fat...

Today i had this bar my wife bought over internet and it's a new ohyeah victory protein bar...



First of all i don't like to take some huge amounts of nutrients right after workout...at least not any more...i used to take like...4 scoops of whey with a scoop of vitargo plus two bananas...i didn't realy noticed much of a difference...

So this bar is quite ok comparing to those old ones from ohyeah...god!!!those have worse ingredients than a snickers bar...ok it have more protein...but carbs...sugar...fat..fuck me...

But you know what i understand them...you have to give people what they want...and what most people want is super tasty,sweet and creamy bar..basicly,most of them don't give a fuck about a nutrition facts...they feel like having something sweet and good that carries a name "protein bar"...this way they feel a bit better for eating crap...that's all...



But for some of you who actualy count calories or at least take care of what you're eating...this bar is way better choice...it's not as good as the old one but don't think this one is bad...it's realy good to be honest...but the key words are...it taste good FOR PROTEIN BAR!!!!



This one weighing 65g and 200kcal wich is reasonable...protein 21g...carb 28g of which 8g sugar...again reasonable...and 6g of fat which in my appinion is a bit too much...if the bar weighted 100g than 6g would be perfect but even like this it's still good..

So to summarize...a proten bar is definitely not my first choice but still,if i decide to have one first thing i do is...choose one!!!

Read the back of your bar or anything you buy basicly...and don't be fooled by their tricks for idiots..."no sugar".."low fat"...just check everything twice before buying it...because trust me on this one...YOU ARE WHAT YOU EAT :)))

  1. Protein bars are terrible, expensive and loaded with sugar. I get a nice chuckle whenever i see someone get tricked into buying them. Only buy them when you don't have time to cook a meal, however you can buy 400grams of chicken breast for the money you spend on 1 shit bar.
