A long time ago, in a bodybuilding galaxy far, far away, lived a despot supplement maker named Lord Weider. His goal was complete meglomanical domination of the galaxy's entire supply of protein drinks. To that end, he flooded the market with high quality protein powders that tasted like ass. Eventually, the fair citizens of the galaxy grew tired of drinking ass-flavoured proteins, and started their own competing companies with far more drinkable solutions. And all was right in the universe once more...

That was, until Magnum Quattro was recently released. Heralding a return to the bad old days of ass-tasting protein, Quattro's seemingly excellent profile of all the ones you would want (whey, isolate, Micellar Casein and a little egg protein isolate to boot), promises the universe, but delivers the kind of old-skool supplement taste I really thought had been wiped out along with that evil ol' Lord Weider.

I have a giant 5lb tub of the Vanilla Ice Cream flavour which I wouldn't wish on anyone - it's just awful. At the recommended dose of 2 full scoops in about 8oz of liquid, you'll be running for the bathroom. Horribly sweet and sickeningly undigestible, this is an epic fail taste-wise. I have tried it at half strength and it is almost tolerable - almost.

Protein is one of those Key Supplements - if it doesn't taste incredible, you'r going to be hard pressed chugging down 3-4 serves of it each and every day. This one is as bad as I can remember - and I've been trying them since the late 80's, back when Lord Weider was still ruling the body building universe.

Do your taste buds a favour - steer for the sun and give this asterod of doom a wide berth. There are a hundred cheaper, plainer flavoured, no-name proteins out there that command your attention over this one.

That is, unless you're a very keen ass fan.

For anyone looking for an amazing time release Protein, pick up Quattro! Taste is unbelievable and it mixes in seconds. Quattro never fails!

Ran out of syntha at the store i go to, so I tried this after using Syntha Six religiously, and let me tell you, it doesn't mix as well, but taste is pretty close. I tried the "Chocolate Dream" flavor, and it tastes like chocolate milk. The time release qualities of this product seem to lack a little but the immediate effect seems to be good. I take it 4x a day, Breakfast, 1 hour before workout, right after workout, and right before bed. I don't seem to get the same recovery during sleep as with synthat six, but the tub does last a lot longer. I get about 1.5-2weeks a tub, and syntha used the same way only lasts 7-10 days tops, so it is a better value, and you CAN buy it in 5lbs tubs.
I plan on trying this pre/post workout, and syntha six for breakfast, and before bed.
In a market of supplements with no controls in place, Magnum is the only company to use "Certified Good Manufacturing Practices (CGMP)" Their sites are "...goverment audited, for quality assurance"
This claim makes me feel a little more inclined to try other magnum products...
Overall i recommend this product.
