While GNC AMP Wheybolic provides an edge in muscle recovery due to the inclusion of additional muscle-synthesis ingredients like L-leucine and Velositol®, it falls short in protein percentage when compared to Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Whey. GNC's 20 grams of protein per serving account for 68% of the product, while Gold Standard delivers 24 grams of protein, making up 79% of the product. Despite GNC's premium formulation, Optimum Nutrition offers better value with a higher protein percentage, a more comprehensive blend of whey proteins, and digestive enzymes that improve absorption, all at a more accessible price point.
Ultimately, Optimum Nutrition Gold Standard Whey takes the win, providing a more balanced option for those focused on both performance and value.
