For a lot of Asian / Chinese dudes, don't you find that clothes / clothing brands from Asia tend to have a better fit? Through HS and university, I've always found it easier to pick out clothes (& pants) that fit better on me from Hong Kong brands. Then when Abercrombie & Fitch / Hollister became easily available in Canada, for a good number of years, their stuff just works on me.

Then when Uniqlo came, they also worked pretty well for me right off the shelf too.

Nowadays, I've just turned into Badhobz and throw whatever Costco has on sale onto my body. A lot of times, everything I wear -- from socks to underwear, to tops and pants, to gloves and toques -- they were all bought from Costco during sales. They are just a good fit -- for my wallet, that is.
(Who cares about how well they fit me?)

For me nothing fits in Asia. Plus they want fat guy to pay more. Ohhhhhh you jumbo jumbo. 6XL!! I charge you more. You use more material. You double material. Double price fatty.

:okay:

That’s why Costco is the way to go. They don’t discriminate

Casual clothing has gotten a lot better in recent years but formal wear..... yeah off the shelf is simply impossible. I'm XL shoulders but almost M waist. Suits and shirts fit like parachutes so they've always got to be tailored or custom. Oh well, pay to play!

Happy New Year from the North Shore, keep at it in '25!

Good deal for whey isolate these days:

https://ca.myprotein.com/sports-nutr...ation=10852489

the unflavored, salted caramel, chocolate milkshake, and strawberry milkshake is the cheapest at $90 before discounts on the 5.5lbs.

Use code “WillVip” for the extra 46% off, and then my referral code for an additional NICK-RS72 (note that this will put you under the $140 minimum for free shipping if you add the additional discount

4 bags will get you the best deal after shipping if you use the referral code for the additional $25 off.

Meh… in case of emergency, just run them over with your car. Why else did you buy an x5

But you’re right. If I see any of these dudes walking down the street I’m crossing to the other side (because there’s a KFC there)

Deals dead now but based on my current bag of ON whet the protein % is higher in this isolate than the ON blend.

ON chocolate is advertised as 24g protein per 32g serving at 120 calories (slightly lower ratio on the Vanilla), or about 75%. On sale at Costco ON is like $70 for 5.5lbs, which is about the same protein amount as the Leanfit Concentrate at $50 regular for a slightly smaller bag (4-something lbs).

This one is advertised as 22g protein per 25g serving at, or about
88%.

I say "advertised" because actuals may not be true to advertised numbers. I'm sure somebody on Reddit has done an analysis and reported on the actuals of both of these popular brands.

That said the my protein deal is dead now as regular price is now $134 instead of $90 per 5.5lbs before discount. All in the deal came out to $43 per 5.5lb bag.

Edit: damn order got cancelled lol

bcrdukes 01-03-2025 07:51 AM

I pulled a Badhobz and bought two bags of ON protein at Costco a while back when it was on sale for the $70 you mentioned. If, and when possible, I'll always try to find the best bang for buck with regards to cost/value to caloric intake and protein and volume ratio etc.

Based on my usage patterns, I go through a 5lb bag every 5 - 6 months. I'm always looking for better (**highly subjective***) protein supplements while being mindful of what works for me. I've tried some protein supplements that have really upset my stomach and straight out made me feel awful.

My order also got cancelled and I was wondering what happened. :D

bcrdukes 01-03-2025 08:32 AM

You cross the street because you're scared of a black dude, only to cross over to the KFC???

That's pretty much jumping out of the frying pan and into the fire.
