In reply to Tonybhoy:
I would say rather than pay out for protein supplements look to maximise your diet. Learn what to eat and when to eat it in relation to your activity. Replacing glycogen stores with fresh quality carbs and repairing and building with protein at the right time has far greater value than knocking a shake back. I used protein shakes for a while but considered them to be another marketing ploy. Doing the hard work of learning about what I need nutritionally to get me through brought more value to my experience all round. Learn exactly why/if you need all the ingredients in those supplements (or not) and form your own opinion.
If you want to build muscle then BCCA supps might help but for running or climbing I don't see the reason. CLA supps will never replace a good recovery plan, sleep, recovery sessions etc. All depends on the time you have to devote to your goals of course. Essentially, avoid short cuts unless absolutely necessary.
E.g. If you train most days you'll get through a big tub of protein supplement in a week or two. That money will buy you lentils, quinoa and fresh veg for at least the same period and your body will thank you. Throw in meat or fish if that's your thing but you are still quids up. Good luck
