lean mass vs protein — genuinely asking which matters more

Question Long Haul ×1 Cold Box ×2 Well Actually ×3

I have had 7 orders now and I keep a table, so here is the honest summary rather than a vibe.

Material has been consistent. Communication has not. Shipping has varied by about 20 days on nominally the same lane, which matters more in summer than in February.

The independent number came back 97.9% against a claimed 98.0%, which I read as agreement rather than a discrepancy — inter-lab variance on this assay is a point or two either way and treating one lab as ground truth is how people end up in pointless arguments with vendors.

Batch number is in the comments. Ask if you want the method.

Tracking number removed. It identifies both ends of a shipment.

Yeah, protein matters on rapid loss.

Strongly agree. Resistance training counts.
