What is Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™?
Looking for a protein that will help AMPlify your game? When it comes to enhancing your strength, size and stamina, nothing compliments your training regimen like Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™! It is GNC's top protein formula with a base of whey and leucine - proven in clinical studies to give you a 30% increase in strength, increased muscle size, and a 100% improvement in exercise efficiency.* That's better fuel for a stronger body - premium protein for ADVANCED MUSCLE PERFORMANCE.*
The Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ Evolution
How is this protein AMPlified? GNC's scientists worked with leading exercise and sports nutrition experts and went beyond the extreme to develop this distinct product...
Highly Effective Whey-Leucine Base - The impressive 60 grams of protein is made entirely from the highest quality, fast-absorbing forms of whey protein - isolates and hydrolysates. With 7.7 grams of leucine, this creates an ideal environment for muscle protein synthesis. This potent blend upregulates multiple Genetic Signaling Pathways (GSP) to enhance anabolism and muscle performance.* In fact, the whey and leucine blend in Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ has been shown to increase muscle strength and stamina with half the sets.*
Micronized Amino Acids - Using MicroSorb™ Amino Technology, the amino acids added to this formula are pulverized, or "micronized" from large molecules into smaller particles to facilitate faster absorption. Why is that important? Better absorption of amino acids means better muscle fuel. These key amino acids support muscle building and recovery.*
Amino Acceleration System - This digestive enzyme blend is designed to accelerate the availability and absorption of amino acids to be efficiently used by the muscles.
More Key Aminos - In addition to a whopping 7.7 grams of leucine - this formula is loaded with an array of aminos necessary for your muscles. This complex blend of amino acids delivers 3.6 grams of arginine, which is involved in creatine synthesis, and over 10 grams of glutamine providing anabolic effects. The amino acid L-carnitine is included to help transform fatty acids into energy for muscles and the body's energy production system.*
The Proof is in the Protein - and then some...
This cutting-edge formula is scientifically engineered to AMPlify your game.
Amino Acceleration System
Features an Amino Acceleration System - a digestive enzyme blend with proven bioactivity. This proprietary enzyme blend provides a 12% greater protein breakdown for improved amino acid uptake.**

Whey Protein for Sports & Fitness
Whey ProteinWhy Do Athletes Use It?*
Some athletes say that whey protein serves as another protein choice in their diets.
What Do the Advocates Say?*
Protein is necessary for rebuilding tissue-this is especially important for bodybuilders. All types of protein provide the body with amino acids. From an athletic point of view, whey is just another type of protein. Choosing whey protein over other types of protein simply adds variety to the protein choices available.
Whey is a common ingredient in many meal replacements, which are designed to provide a large amount of nutrients in a minimal amount of calories.
How Much Is Usually Taken by Athletes?
Animal studies suggest that whey protein can increase gains in lean body mass resulting from exercise.1 A controlled trial found that six weeks of strength training while taking 1.2 grams of whey protein per 2.2 of pounds body weight per day resulted in greater gains in lean body mass, but improved only one out of four strength tests.2 Another controlled study found that people taking 20 grams per day of whey protein for three months performed better on a test of short-term intense cycling exercise than people taking a similar amount of milk protein (casein).3 However, a double-blind trial found that men taking 1.5 grams per 2.2 lbs of body weight per day of predigested whey protein for 12 weeks along with a strength-training exercise program gained only half as much lean body mass and had significantly smaller increases in strength compared with men using a similar amount of predigested casein along with strength training.4 A controlled study of HIV-infected women found that adding whey protein to strength-training exercise was no more effective than exercise alone for increasing strength or improving body composition.5

Comments about GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ - Cookies & Cream:
I was looking for a high calorie, high protein, low carb shake to help increase strength, build muscle and aid in recovery. I went to GNC and looked around and came across AMP Whey 60 and figured I'd give it a try. It is a protein blend of hydro whey and whey isloates + a bunch of fun amino acid accelerators to help breakdown the proteins and increase absorption rates.
In the last month I've used this I have noticed gains in both strength and muscle definition (alternating upper body and lower body workouts every other day), but the taste of this Cookies and cream flavor is horrible! I've tried water, water with ice, milk, it just isn't east to get down. I take the full 3 scoop servings (which is a lot) and it is a struggle to finish it. Even taking less scoops or adding more water/milk doesn't salvage the taste.
So yes, I see results and my recovery is increased (not sore next day), but the taste is terrible, I don't look forward to drinking it, and sometimes gives me upset stomach.
You should enjoy your protein shake that you spend good money on and have to take daily IMO.Pros

Comments about GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ - Cookies & Cream:
Tastes good, I prefer to mix it with skim milk and let it sit in the fridge over-night. I got it during a buy one get one 50% off sale so the price wasn't to bad but at full price it can get spendy. For the price I got it for, it was a good buy.

Comments about GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ - Cookies & Cream:
I really love this protein! I had been using a pretty cheap protein brand for convenience of use btwn me, my boyfriend, and our roommate all together. However, (after getting this on a buy 2 get one free offer) after using this product for the past month, I have seen a great improvement in my muscles - both in tone and recovery. Never realized the type of protein you use post-workout could make that big of a difference, but this one really does!

Hi, I'm a personal trainer, my clients and I were customers and we used the protein GNC Pro Performance AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60 - Cookies & Cream, but since they changed the price we'll have to switch stores, because the truth is a abuse.

Comments about GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ - Cookies & Cream:
I bought the chocolate flavor of this protein powder, and that tasted great. So I purchased 3 more lbs of the cookies and cream thinking it would taste just as good. Big mistake.
Overall, this product in general is a great protein powder, but the cookies and cream flavor is absolutely terrible.Pros

Comments about GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ - Cookies & Cream:
I usually take Whey Isolate 28 but the Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60 is 5X better with crazy results.
1. Strength went up quickly 5-10lbs every workout (within a week)
2. Gained more size faster than I have do with any other protein (within a week)
3. My recovery time shortened by a day or two at the most.Pros

Comments about GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ - Cookies & Cream:
I bought this after speaking to the GNC rep, I wanted to try something new so I decided to go with the Wheybolic Extreme 60 and absolutely hate the flavor of this cookies and cream. It is the worst tasting protein I have ever tasted, I also bought the chocolate flavor at the time of this purchase and am much more please with the taste of that one. I would never spend this much on protein powder again especially when there are cheaper and better alternatives out there.

Comments about GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Wheybolic Extreme 60™ - Cookies & Cream:
Great product. I use two scoops instead of the three that is recommended and find it tastes better and is easier to consume that way. Been using it for one week and will continue to purchase in the future.
