Advice for better protein shakes?

Skim milk is fine. You can put a small banana or 1/2, and it greatly improves the taste, but Idk how many calories you want in your shake.

just whatever's in the whey, plus maybe at most 100 calories

btw, why are you eating that much protein on 2000 kcals? what are your stats? height, weight, etc?

230g a day

Hope you are roiding and cutting.

Use water with whey. Just add an extra scoop, what's the worst that could happen, Anon?

6'1", 255 lbs, ~20% body fat

Right now, I'm trying to just grow my upper body so it's symmetrical to my legs. I used to be a lot fatter (~35%, 260), so my legs are asymmetrically strong compared to everything else

enjoy your cancer
>230g protein/day
you don't need it. No, you're not a special snowflake.
>whey
hemp, pea and rice isolated proteins in plain water, unsweetened coffee or even soups will be better for your goals
>almond milk
almonds don't produce milk unless you're activating them. you're literally drinking sweetened water

>thinking you can make a shake with anything under 500 calories

Dude, come on. You have to eat BIG to get BIG.

Oats, peanut butter, banana, whole milk.

The only whey to go. You're losing a lot of your protein intake anyway because the human body doesn't work like supp companies want you to think.

If you were hitting 250g@ 3000 calories, I wouldn't tell you about how you're fucking up because your body could actually process all of it

how do you measure your bf?

And It's impossible that with that weight/height you can "lean bulk" at 2000 calories. A bulk is a surplus of your TDEE.

I used this page: http://www.sailrabbit.com/bmr/
I used 25 years old and with the 1.2 multiplier (Sedentary lifestyle,etc).
And using the Katch-McArdle formula (that I think it's the most accurate if you have your BF), your TDEE is 2843.
At 2000 kcalories a day you atr fucking cutting by at least 800 kcals. That's not a "lean bulk".

Use either skim milk, tastes almost the same as whole milk in the shake, or mix the milk with water, if you can't stand 100% water. Try different milk to water ratios, start off by 50:50, in decrease the amount of milk and increase the amount of water from there during further iterations.

Unsweetened almond milk has about half the calories as regular milk. It works well for shakes but doesn't have much protein. You could add a little more whey to account for the protein you used to get from the milk and still come out ahead calorie-wise.
