Most protein powders do come in the common two tub sizes 2 and 5lb. Some brands do go the extra mile producing a super size 10lb, although that isn’t something you see too often. In the case of Optimum Nutrition they actually go way beyond anyone else for Gold Standard 100% Whey with a trial size three serving, 1lb, 2lb, 3.3lb, 5lb, 8lb, and the biggest of them all a 10lb. As far as we know that is the largest range of sizes available for any single supplement, let alone a protein powder. With a total of seven, or six now that the odd 3.3lb variant isn’t seen as much, Optimum have launched what will be Gold Standard’s eighth volume. For whatever reason the brand have put together a new 3.53lb 50 serving tub, available in five flavors, chocolate peanut butter, double rich chocolate, extreme milk chocolate, french vanilla creme and mocha cappuccino. The price being put on the product is as you’d expect, right in between the 2 and 5lb in terms of value at $47.99. For those interested whether it be because $48 is just what you have left from your pay check, or 50 serving sounds like a magical number. For now the 50 serving 3.53lb Optimum Gold Standard is exclusive to Bodybuilding.com.
