Sport Premium Protein
What this means
Elite efficiency — 40%+ of calories from protein. Lean meat, whey isolate, low-fat dairy. 70.6% density puts this in the Platinum tier.
Pea isolate is effectively complete (low methionine but adequate) — counts toward the target.
Note: At 2.34g leucine per single scoop, this product sits below the 2.5g threshold needed to maximally trigger muscle protein synthesis in one serving. Common workarounds: use 1.5 scoops, or combine with another protein source in the same meal (e.g., Greek yogurt, eggs). More on the leucine threshold.
vs Naked Whey (whey reference)
| Metric | Sport Premium Protein | Naked Whey (reference) | Δ |
|---|---|---|---|
| Protein / serving | 30g | 25g | +5g |
| Leucine | 2.34g | 2.6g | -0.26g |
| Density | 70.6% | 83.3% | -12.7% |
| MPS trigger at 1 scoop? | No | Yes |
Notes
Pea + pumpkin + sunflower + alfalfa blend, 5g BCAAs and 5g glutamine added. NSF Certified for Sport. Leucine estimated from pea-dominant blend (8.2%) — slightly under MPS trigger at 1 scoop; vegan athletes often dose 1.5 scoops.
