Answer 1

They are mostly just to build up fats, not muscle.

Answer 2

i drink muscle milk-chocolate

it's like 30 bucks

drink that a couple of times a day and work out

Answer 3

They work, but not to build muscles.  They're designed to get calories into the elderly.

Answer 4

Its ok, but you should be taking in more protein than 8g.

and you need 1 - 1.5 g of protein per pound of LEAN BODY MASS.

Answer 5

If you want to build muscle. You need to take at least 1g to 1.5g per lb of your body weight each day.

So, 8g of protein is just good for your 8lbs weight. The rest you do the maths.
