Protein
As most of you know by now I am pretty serious with my lifting.
With that I end up buying lots of protein and other supplements.
I am posting up here to find out who would be interested in protein if I were to sell it.
My cost would be cheaper that most places and it would have my own label on it
Depending on how much interest I get here will depend how quickly I move forward with this.
I still have plenty left Bryan. Going to skip this shipment
This wouldn't be a grab stuff when we need it.
I would carry stuff in stock so if anyone is interested I would more than likely have it already.

Post specs.
Whey? Casein? Blend?
Isolate? Hydrolized?
What % protein?
What are the nutritional stats? Carbs? Fats?
Flavour options?
Where will you be sourcing this from?
If you don't post this stuff it's like saying "I'm selling cars cheap, is anyone interested?". No one can say until they know what kind of car
Hahaha, good call Sal, here it is.
Whey Concentrate (I can get whatever you are interested in, so let me know and I will put info for those too) will be my main product as that is the most cost effective.
Chocolate, Chocolate Peanut Butter, Cookies and Cream, Vanilla, Strawberry, Natural(unflavoured and unsweetened)
Everything will be sourced from Canadian Protein.
I am projecting the cost to be around 40$ for 5 pounds.

40 bucks for 5 pounds is a steal. I just paid 80 plus tax for optimum last week. Ill take 10 lbs when im done this.

Count me in and I'll be able to get you around 4-5 customers easy.
Thanks for all the interest guys. I have already started the process to bring it in.

Is this an ongoing thing, Bryan? Just started a new training program, but I still have a few weeks left of the protein powder I'm using.
Same as Deep - I'd be interested after that.
Yeah, I will be doing this for a long time.
The next house will have a large gym (do some personal training) so the only changes you might see is that I will be carrying more stuff.

Sounds good Bryan. I'll be in touch
On a side note, have you heard of wendler's 5/3/1 program? Trying it out as my buddy said it's awesome.
Just took a look at it now, I may just try it out when I go back to power lifting.
I am enjoying bodybuilding now (almost a year now) and still can't decide when I want to switch back, I was power lifting for about 4 years before body building.
My back is actually showing results now so going to keep working that and as soon as I am happy with it then probably go back to power lifting.
You may want to check out Elliot Hulse's grow stonger method, some definite similarities.

Bryan I've got a couple of friends that are interested, I'll keep you posted.
I'll pick some up as well. Vanilla or chocolate.
Ok so my plan was just to get Chocolate, I can get others though.
Is anyone interested in the other flavours?

Re: Protein - March 06, 2013 12:24 am UTC
Yeah, Strawberry?
Ok cool. I know some others who would want that.

just don't let the army know you're doing that.. the PSP fitness manual and CF health services no longer offers medical pension for those injured doing crossfit. So if you do tweak something, tell them you were at ballet.
Alright so I finally heard back from them.
I currently have chocolate available now and will be placing an order shortly for chocolate, vanilla and strawberry. (50% chocolate, 25% vanilla, 25% starberry)
I will actually be selling 2kg bags for $40, sorry for the discrepancy in the size, let me know if this is an issue.
Let me know if you are interested in anything else.

Vanilla!!!
1 order for me please, I'll double check with the boys to see if they want any.
Hey Guys,
I really have to appologize, I am getting really impatient with CanadianProtein and am trying to find another option right now.
I haven't met a company with worse communication and am getting frustrated.
Will definitely update you as soon as I have some good news.

Flame on! Flame them on Facebook, they have a page.
I always worry about that cause right now the options are slim, not trying to burn any bridge just yet.
Alright well I am still trying to connect with Canadian Protein and having very little luck.
I have bulk Chocolate with me right now so if you want to show up with a protein container then I will fill it with 2kgs (I have a food scale).
Unfortunately this is the only option I have at this time, I have sent them another ticket(as this seems to be the best communication option) and we will see what happens.

Hey Bryan,
I was thinking about ordering from Canadian Protein but I keep hearing mixed reviews. Would you suggest ordering from them or should I avoid them?
They have the best deal on fish pills which I go through like crazy.
I did an order a while back for 25lbs and it went well, it wasn't fast shipping (maybe a week or so).
There customer service is pretty garbage as you can tell from the thread and all the issues I have been having.
I have also heard if there stuff is not ready it might take some time to get your order ready, and from what I have seen they have been know to screw up an order once in a while.
I would check out bodybuilding.com today, it's their birthday and they are given 20% off select brands.

Re: Protein - April 11, 2013 08:27 pm UTC
With bodybuilding.com you'll want to order a good 3 week before you'll actually need the stuff, as it takes quite a while to arrive, especially if it gets held up at customs
Yeah I talked to them on the phone, they said if you order more than 90days supply of something(depending on the ingredients) there is a good chance it will get held up.
So I finally got Canadian Protein on the phone.
Currently you all have two options:
1)I am working on getting a discount with CP that will give you all 5% off
2)I buy large bags and you guys can show up with containers and I will fill them. 2kg for $40 would be the price I would do.
Let me know what works for all of you.
