Tastes like a Chocolate milkshake Mar 10, 2012
By Tom White I agree with the other reviews that Muscle Milk does contain more sugar and fat than most other protein supplements, but you're talking about 6 grams of fat per serving, and just two grams of sugar. Not that much. If you're on a super strict diet, then fair enough but if you're using this as a meal replacement or a post-workout recovery drink I think it fits the bill perfectly. I also like how it has glutamine already in the mix, not very much so I still supplement it separately as well but still a nice touch have an amino acid like that in a protein shake.
The only other amino acid I think is worth taking is L-Arginine, 1KG (2.2 Lbs) L Arginine Bulk Powder. This one actually increases the ability to signal muscle cells and releases growth hormone, also increases the metabolism naturally. I don't believe in taking amino blends, but if they are included in the protein I am taking, I won't complain. I will however, still add the necessary components to build muscle and I have always preferred to go to the ones that have been proven to work.
So, if your looking for the best tasting protein (i.e. actually tastes like a chocolate milkshake), then you can do no better than Muscle Milk. One tip is to put some ice in the blender when mixing, makes it taste almost like a malt. And unless you're in a serious bulking phase, drinking this post-workout makes the most sense, since your body will suck up the extra sugar and fat that make this shake taste so good and use it for recovery.

I love it. Oct 03, 2006
By Andres Well here's the famous Muscle Milk.
If you are thinking about getting this product but you are not sure if it is appropriate for you let me let you know why it probably is, or probably isn't or at least you should go easy on it.
Although this is no "weight gainer", it is between a regular protein powder and weight gainer, since 2 scoops have 350 calories. 160 of those are from fats, 8 of them saturated. MCTs fats are easily burned as energy, but you can still find nutritionists that say that's just not true. So it's up to you. I would go with bodybuilders and athletes that love the product since, well, they are the, literally, living proof.
When should you drink it? The manufacturer tells you that you should consume it after waking up, before working out, after working out, and before sleeping...hehe well manufacturers are always telling us to consume their product as much as we can for "better results" but the truth is that supplements should be used wisely and aren't magic so don't worry about consuming it 4 times a day. Besides, 160 times 4 are 640 calories from fat. That's 30% of 2000. You should get about 25% of your calories from fat (if you really wanna be lean) so if you mix the muscle milk with soy milk and you eat close to 3000 calories, that's almost all the fats you should get. Nothing else, no peanut butter, no almonds, etc. Besides there's no really need of muscle milk after waking up and before workout. Everyone knows that whey protein is the best pre workout protein due to its fast effect. But I get it after workout and before sleeping.
Does it work? Well, if you have a good workout and you have a good diet it does work. I have dropped some body fat % since I started to take it and I have gained some muscle mass without gaining any fat. I recommend mixing this with soy milk or low fat milk at night and not getting anything else.
Getting calories from fats at night is fine, when we sleep we burn calories and most of them from protein and fats. But we don't burn that many carbs while sleeping. Don't get me wrong, I don't live the "low carb lifestyle", but I go easy on them at night. If you get less than 30 grams of them in the last hours of the day you'll be fine. That's why muscle milk is a good choice for pre sleep protein since it has little carbs.
For post workout I recommend the same mixture of Muscle Milk and soy or low fat milk but eat fruits too. You need carbs after workout and the fats will help a lot since carbs work better with fats (and protein too. In fact, fats are much better being consumed to join carbs and protein).
Now , I'm not gonna say this is the best tasting bodybuilding powder in the world because I haven't tried them all...but it is the best I have ever tried and I doubt there's anything better. I just love every flavor. The cookies and cream is just delicious, almost like an ice cream. And it barely has sugar. You won't find a better tasting powder, I'm sure of that.
If you are on a diet trying to lose that belly I wouldn't recommend this to you. But if you are already lean or have always been and now your goals is getting lean muscle, then go ahead.
The price is the only turn off though but if you think a good product and with an awesome taste makes the price of a product even more worth it, go ahead.

Tasty, but... Jun 25, 2010
By ThePalikero
"Sight & Sound Fan"
...recent Consumer Reports testing indicates:
The worst of the products tested was MUSCLE MILK CHOCOLATE powder, which contained all four TOXIC METALS; three of them at the highest levels of all products tested. Three daily servings of this particular brand and flavor contained an average of:
* 5.6 µg cadmium * 13.5 µg of lead * 12.2 µg of arsenic * 0.7 µg of mercury
Muscle Milk's Vanilla Crème contained slightly less lead, but still exceeded the USP lead limit of 10 µg.

This is where it's at.. Sep 17, 2007
By Daris McInnis I review supplements that I have a great familiarity with and have used in comparison with others in its genre. I have been working out for about 3-4 years now and have used a variety of protein shakes on the market. For guys who are not born genetically able to build rapid muscles without a strict diet plan, gaining size in muscle is extremely difficult.
With MuscleMilk, i'm just going to jump straight to the point. If you're looking to build muscle fast along with your regular workouts, I strongly recommend this product. It'll put the weight on you faster than anything i've ever used. However, beware of the calorie content in Muscle Milk. I haven't found it to be exactly a "lean formula" as it promises, but it does help add on some extra pounds for building muscle on the other hand.
If you're a hardgainer, go for MuscleMilk. If you're looking for a protein to help you build muscle but keep a very lean, cut frame, then I recommend Nature's Best Isopure (if your budget sees fit.) If not, Muscle Milk in conjunction with lots of carido and Prolab creatine monohydrate should do the trick.

Not just for the guys! Aug 29, 2007
By kc I was a little skeptical about this product as I'm not looking to get huge muscles (the name "Muscle Milk" almost stopped me from using it)... but it got good reviews and my friends like it, so I thought I'd try it. First off, this stuff tastes great! I don't even feel the need to use milk, I just blend it with ice and water. It's more than enough to keep me full between meals or curb hunger post-workout. I'm not sure about the "muscle building" properties but I was able to lose weight and inches by substituting Muscle Milk for sweets -- so, at the very least it's a good way to get my chocolate fix without completely derailing all my hard work at the gym.
