This Whey Blend is a quality whey protein isolate and concentrate blend by Rule 1, available in select gourmet flavours. This product has added whey protein hydrolysate, a pre-digested form of protein that improves mixability and bioavailability. Hydrolysate proteins are treated with natural enzymes, breaking down the larger and more complex protein chains into smaller units.
By having a mix of whey protein concentrate, whey protein isolate and whey protein hydrolysate, you get all of the varied benefits of each type of protein without having to pay a premium cost. The addition of a whey protein concentrate to a formulation delays digestion and absorption that little bit more than WPI, helping to sustain you for longer, supporting muscle repair and recovery.

Rule 1 Whey Blend is a high protein, low carbohydrate protein powder containing well-absorbed protein. This makes it is a superior form of protein compared to even animal protein sources in the diet. When exercising at high intensity for short duration, muscle tissue gets damaged. Due to this muscle damage more protein is required to heal the damage and grow the muscle. Realistically, the muscle is trying to increase its size and strength in order to prevent further damage in the future. This is a typical biological adaptation process.
With a supplement like Rule 1 Whey Blend you can meet an increased protein requirement with ease, allowing your body to build more muscle faster and recover more rapidly. This reduces muscle soreness and stress on your body and ultimately support increased performance in the long-term. Due to the forms of protein in this Whey Blend, your body is not limited by poor absorption, which means you get to feel the full benefit.
Quality Ingredients, Premium Nutrition
Rule 1 Whey Blend contains both natural and artificial flavours, emulsifiers, sweeteners and thickeners. The emulsifiers are added to assist with easy mixing by simply shaking the product in a shaker or stirring with a spoon. The thickeners are added to give it more of a milk shake style mouth feel, so this is a thick and creamy protein shake that tastes great.
The protein components of Rule 1 Whey Blend are all dairy based proteins. A whey protein isolate is widely recognised as the best absorbing protein aspect from dairy protein. And a whey protein concentrate is regarded as the second-best absorbing protein from dairy protein. By having a mixture of these two superior proteins in Rule 1 R1 Whey Blend you can be assured that you will have extremely superior absorbing protein delivering you high-quality muscle repair and gains.
Who should use Rule 1 Whey Blend?
Anyone that is exercising three times per week or more in either endurance and aerobic or weight training should use a protein powder like R1 Whey Blend. The detriment of not increasing your protein intake whilst increasing your exercise levels can be quite significant. By under recovering your muscle tissue is not fully repaired and then under functions and you under perform during exercise. If you exercise three times per week you should take approximately 1.2 to 1.4 g of protein per kilo of body weight per day.
Rule 1 Whey Blend Nutrition Facts
If you're exercising 4 to 6 times per week then you really should be looking to increase your protein intake to 1.8 g of protein per kilo of body weight per day. This is a significant intake of protein which is quite difficult to get from a normal diet as protein foods are typically only 17 to 20% protein per weight. Even if you were to eat 200 g of chicken twice per day that only equates to 68 g of protein for the day where 1 serve of our R1 Whey Blend contains 24 g of protein.
Rule 1 Whey Blend versus Rule 1 Casein
Rule 1 Whey Blend is a fast release, fast absorbing protein powder to be taken typically post workout or between meals. Any Whey Blend will absorb significantly faster than a casein style protein powder. The purpose of a casein-based protein is typically to be taken only at nighttime 30 minutes before bed. People using a casein protein post workout can miss out significantly on absorbing all of the amino acids from their protein during what is called the anabolic window.
Taking Rule1 R1 Whey Blend during the anabolic window, which extends for approximately 1 hour after workouts, will allow the full protein and all of the amino acids to be fully absorbed by your muscle tissue to start the recovery process. So in summary the best whey of using Rule 1 products together are to take the R1 Whey Blend post workout and in the morning, and use the R1 casein at night time between dinner and bedtime.

Rule 1 R1 Whey Blend Review
The Rule 1 R1 Whey blend is a great protein from Rule 1. Like many other whey blends Rule One consists of a whey protein isolate, a whey protein concentrate but with the addition of some hydrolysed whey protein.
Being a whey isolate, whey concentrate blend, Rule 1 is extremely good in terms of absorption, and this is significantly boosted by the addition of the hydrolysed whey protein. Rule 1 Whey contains a massive 5.5 g of branched chain amino acids otherwise known as BCAA's. Branched-chain amino acids are very significant in aiding muscle recovery and do wonders for those suffering from sore muscles after training.
The proteins in Rule 1 R1 whey blend can be used at any time throughout the day including, post workout, between meals or even at night times. Because R1 Whey blend is formulated with superior protein types you're always going to achieve terrific protein absorption, and it is in a form that makes it very easy for your body to use.
What's in Rule one R1 Whey blend?
Rule 1 R1 Whey blend contains a protein complex consisting of whey protein concentrate firstly, followed by whey protein isolate, and then whey protein hydrosylate. As is with most other proteins R1 Whey blend also contains flavours, colours and thickeners.
The thickeners are added so the protein powder is not too watery to drink, but as it is a fast release protein powder not too thick either. A whey protein isolate is commonly regarded as a premium protein powder, however a whey protein concentrate has very similar absorption to an isolate, but is significantly less expensive.
Taste and Flavour of Rule One R1 Whey Blend
The R1 Whey blend is a very good tasting protein powder. I've personally tasted the chocolate and cookies and cream flavours and both were great. There are many other whey blend products on the market, and I can honestly say Rule 1 R1 Whey blend is one of the better tasting blends. The R1 Whey Blend is not too thick to drink but not too watery either.
Rule1 R1 Whey Blend comes in chocolate fudge, vanilla ice cream, cookies and cream and strawberry. This brand has not come about by accident and the owners have put a massive amount of effort into making sure the product quality is exceptional, the flavour is terrific, and the price per serve makes this product a market leader.
What can Rule 1 R1 Whey Blend be used for?
Rule 1 R1 Whey Blend can be used for various different reasons. It would predominantly be used for people that do weight training or athletic training, however it could simply be used by people that don't have enough protein in their diet.
From a weight training perspective the Rule 1 Whey being 80% protein will aid in muscle regrowth and in regenerating the muscle that is damaged from lifting heavy weights.
Typically people that partake in weight training are trying to create as much muscle damage as possible and then they intake proteins through their foods and supplements to repair, recover and rebuild that muscle tissue to be larger than it was originally. R1 Whey Blend is a perfect protein powder for this purpose due to its superior absorption.
Rule 1 R1 Whey Blends cost effectiveness
The Rule 1 R1 Whey Blend is very cost-effective as are most whey isolate/concentrate blends. The small 2lb size has 28 serves for approximately $1.33 per serve and the large 10lb bag works out at approximately $1.00 per serve which is great value for money for a superior absorbing whey protein blend.
Overall Summary and Review of Rule 1 R1 Whey Blend
All-in-all Rule 1 R1 Whey Blend is a superior protein at a very cost-effective price that will significantly aid muscle recovery. The R1 Whey Blend tastes amazing which is always handy when you're taking a protein powder 2 to 3 times per day. The last thing you need is to be taking a protein powder that works well, but taste terrible. You don't have to worry about that with the R1 Whey blend you'll get great results at a great price with a great taste.
