Proteins
You, as an athlete, probably know how important proteins are for muscle recovery after intense training. Protein shakes have become extremely popular among strength athletes for this reason. The amino acids in protein aid in the recovery and growth of muscle tissue and also contribute to enhancing the immune system.
Below, you’ll find all our high-quality protein shake varieties!

The name says it all, they are shakes with a high protein content. It is a powder that is mixed with water or milk. Everyone needs protein to keep the body functioning properly. Athletes even need extra protein to repair muscles, and to build extra muscle mass. You take in protein every day from your diet. But if not enough protein is absorbed from the diet, it is wise to consume a protein shake.
The recommended daily protein intake from normal food is 0.8 - 1 gram of protein per kg of body weight. However, this is not accurate because age and how active you are have a big influence on this. Below is an overview to calculate your protein requirement! Should you not reach the recommended protein intake? Then we recommend a protein shake.
Groups | Grams of protein per KG body weight |
Non athletes | 0,8 |
Athletes | 1,5 |
Strength athletes | 1,8 |
Weight losers | 1,8 |
Vegetarian/vegan | 1,3 |
Pregnancy | 0,9 |
Breastfeeding | 1 |
Senior citizens (70+) | 1 |
For example: A strength athlete with a body weight of 70kg needs 70 x 1.8 grams of protein = 126 grams of protein per day.
Proteins can be obtained from various sources such as dairy, plants, and meat. However, this does not mean that every protein is equally effective for muscle recovery and growth; it depends on the amino acids a protein contains. Whey Protein contains the highest percentage of essential amino acids and is therefore the most effective for muscle recovery and growth. This is because the composition of whey protein closely resembles the composition of our own muscles in terms of amino acids.
"But what is whey exactly? Whey is a byproduct of cheese production, a cloudy liquid rich in proteins. It is filtered and dried until a pure powder remains with a high protein content. We process this end product into our whey protein shakes.
We offer 3 types of whey protein shakes. The most suitable one for you depends on your goals and budget. Below, you can easily compare the shakes:
Whey Protein | Whey Isolate | Clear Whey Isolate | |
Protein | 79% | 90% | 92% |
Kcal (per 100g) | 406 | 386 | 384 |
Carbohydrates | 9.7% | 1.6% | 0.4% |
Fat | 7% | 0.55% | 0.1% |
