A High Quality Protein Shaker Bottle is an Important Gym Accessory for You: Check out the Best Protein Shaker Bottles Plus Important Tips and Tricks to Choose the Best One (2020)

With the rising awareness about health and wellness, more people are joining gyms than ever before and out of this crowd, there is a significant percentage of youth who are interested in weight training and muscle building. A protein shake is an effective drink for pre and post workouts during gym sessions and a normal water bottle wouldn’t effectively mix the protein powder and the liquid (water, milk or juice, etc.). Mixing protein powder and liquid in a water bottle would form lumps as the protein will not mix properly in the solution. To address this issue, protein shaker bottles were invented and they instantly became a hit with fitness enthusiasts.

A protein bottle is generally made of BPA-free plastic, has an airtight lid fitted with a sipper, and a spring mechanism which would break any lumps inside the bottle and provide a smooth drink. You need to shake the bottle before drinking the protein shake so that the drink is mixed properly with the help of the spring inside the shaker. Some protein shakers are also fitted with a separate section at the bottom where you can keep a few scoops of the protein powder and carry it in the shaker to the gym. Later, during a workout, you can mix this protein powder with water or juice, shake and drink the protein shake from this protein shaker bottle. Protein shaker bottles are available in stainless steel and glass as well, and these are better than the plastic ones because the protein shake wouldn’t leave any smell in the bottles made of these materials.

If this is the first time you are planning to buy and use a protein shaker bottle then you must know the right way to use it. First, take the recommended amount of protein powder by measuring with the scoop and storing it separately (you can use the lower section of the bottle), fill the required amount of liquid (water, milk, juice, etc.) using the measurement marks on the side of the bottle and now you are ready to go. Just before drinking, mix the powder into the liquid, close the lid properly, and shake the bottle well. Now you can consume the drink, but ensure to shake the bottle gently every few seconds while you are sipping the protein shake so that the protein shake does not stick to the walls of the bottle or lumps are formed at the bottom.

Protein and whey shakes have a pungent smell that stays in the bottle and doesn’t go away with a normal soap cleaning. To get rid of this odour you can fill the bottle with hot water, mix 1 tbsp baking soda, close the lid and give a good shake before leaving it overnight. Wash and rinse the bottle in the morning and you’ll get an odourless and clean bottle.

Choosing the right protein shaker bottle depends on various factors which include the size (may vary depending on your individual needs), quality (if choosing a plastic bottle, do check for the BPA-free label), authenticity (don’t fall for cheap copies as they may be made of low-grade plastic and are hazardous for health), reviews (read what other customers have to say about the product on online portals), and colour a design (based upon your own preferences). Also, avoid plastic shaker bottles with a mark of 3, 6 and 7 as these are not made of plastic which is fit for drinking purposes, instead choose the ones with 1, 2, 4 and 5 at the bottom.
