Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Whey, Double Rich Chocolate (2 Pounds)

Trainer Taj Felix told us he’s been using this chocolatey whey-protein powder from Optimum Nutrition, which contains a blend of whey isolate and concentrate, for “about eight years now” and that many others in his industry use it too.

Cellucor Cor Sport Whey Protein

If you prefer vanilla to chocolate, celebrity trainer Steve Uria says this whey-protein powder — also a blend of whey isolate and concentrate — has a minimal ingredient list and is his favorite of the ten he’s tried.

Uria told us he has used it for four years and that he never experiences “any bloating or gas.” While his favorite flavor is vanilla, he says the brand makes other options, like peanut-butter marshmallow, which let him switch it up occasionally.

Podium Whey Protein Powder – Maple Butter Pancake

This whey from Podium was the main protein supplement I used for weight training in 2023 for one reason: It’s the best protein powder I’ve used for mixing into shakes and smoothies.

Podium’s powder is finer than most (if not all) of the protein powders I’ve tried in this list (including the Optimum Gold Standard, Momentous Essential Grass-Fed, and Orgain’s Organic Plant-Based) and doesn’t clump together as much as chunkier powders.

Momentous Essential Grass-Fed Whey Protein

According to our panel of nutritionists, a cow’s diet can make a difference in the quality of whey protein.

If they’re grass-fed, the milk they produce (and any whey protein derived from it) will be hormone free.

This chocolate powder’s whey protein isolate is derived from grass-fed cows; it’s a favorite of fitness expert Jeff Halevy, a former health correspondent for the Today Show, who says it is “not overly sweet” and the best of some 15 other protein powders he’s tried.

Another reason Halevy likes this protein powder is that it’s NSF certified.

Genius Whey Protein Powder

This protein powder comes recommended by Colon IV, who likes its mix of fast- and slow-release proteins. “It gives you a steady stream of amino acids,” Colon explains. “When you ingest a protein, your body breaks it down into individual amino acids and rearranges them, refolds them, and turns them into whatever is needed at the time.”

Now Sports Unflavored Pea Protein Isolate, 2 lb.

Like Alexander, fitness coach Ebonny Fowler prefers an unflavored protein powder so she can better mix it with other ingredients.
