samuel r walkerParticipanthow do you guys measure your protein powders.. for AM shakes and PWO alike. Ive always based it on the measuring on the actual scoop, but went for an am shake today since I woke up late and what the scoop says and what it actually weighs in grams are totally different. mind blown.

CBachelor17MemberI use a pocket scale to weigh all my supplements & most my food! Down to the .1g ;D Might sound obsessive but I know exactly what Im putting in and exactly how much!It makes it a lot easyier too, if you need 10g out of a 25g scoop of protein. But the scoop weighs 31g. 10/25=0.4 (0.4x31=12.4"How Many Grams you need")

samuel r walkerParticipantI guess thats what I gotta do as well. Ive been using iso-100 and the scooper claims at full it weighs 2 oz, when i weighed it, it was just under 1 oz.. haha

CBachelor17MemberYea settling, among other things will sway the scoop. Especially in Whey, and Pre Workouts. A lot of pre workouts I use the scoop is weighs about .5-.75 of the actual serving.

Gl;itch.eMemberI used to use a scoop. Now I just stare at the protein in the tub and use my mind powers to absorb the nutrients through the ether until I become satisfied that my cells are sufficiently saturated.

Haha, I love it. I'll have to try that tomorrow 😉That's a very interesting question, I never thought about the weight vs the scoop. I think I'll weigh it out tomorrow and see! I've just been going off the scoop.
