I usually get body fortress but when i went to buy some today they didnt have any so i bought Precision Engineered instead because it was there, half price and the offer was almost over.
So just asking if there is a difference between the two or is the name the only difference. Thanks.

I dont live in america. There is no wall mart in Ireland. It was at Holland and Barretts, which is a health shop here.

The Body Fortress they sell over here is garbage, dunno if it's any better where you live.

So Body Fortress is no good? Hmmm this is the first im hearing of this. Tbh i only take it (whey protein) because i dont have a big appetite so need to make up the protein numbers with it. Would you recomment something else or is the Precision Engineered Whey better, quality wise? |

I can't really say as I don't know the product. I do know that many UK users here get their protein from myprotein.co.uk. You may want to poke around there and see if anything strikes your fancy.

used it for ages, the labeling in the store says it the same just repackaged, asked staff too and they confirmed. its alright quality stuff but nothing special, i probably used it for 2-3 years and my only complaint was the price going up and down tbh, and at its cheapest its still more expensive (just), than better quality stuff available. myself i've just gone over to using myprotein website for all my supplements(well protein and creatine) and cant speak highly enough about them so far  |

Looks like they put alot more stuff in it. Gonna be ordering my protein from myprotein.co.uk from now on |

Don't fall into the "precision engineered" part, its just marketing man. |

wal-mart no, holland and barrett, seem to employ some people that have at least an interest in what they sell. "Precision Engineered" yeah the name is lame but its the same stuff as before so no, no ones falling for anything, if you have an old label compare it to the new one exactly the same info and ingredients.
