How to choose a shaker?

Selection protein shaker is not rocket science, you just need to know when and how you want to use it. The minor differences between fitness shakers are due to size, material and the way the contents are shaken.

Types of shaker

  • Aclassic protein or saccharine shaker has a volume of around 600 ml, so you can comfortably mix up a double dose. If you don't want to have shaker rolls full of unmixed powder, be sure to pour the liquid first (it's also important to decide whether to drink your protein with milk or water).
  • mini shaker (with a capacity of around 250 ml) will help with the preparation of pre‑workout, amino acid mix or creatine. For these shakes, you don't need much water and a small shaker is a good tool. However, it can also come in handy if you prefer a stronger protein taste and don't need to dilute it as much.
  • Shaker with reservoir is for those who want to keep their fitness life a little more organised. The removable trays are perfect for your next dose or other sports supplements and tablets.

Material

The most commonly used material is plastic. Plastic shakers need to be properly cared for if they are to last. Frequent washing can cause minor abrasions inside the shaker, where bacteria can later breed and cause an unpleasant smell. If you forget about the shaker overnight, that's not immediately a reason to replace it. But if it's almost walking around your room, it's better for your health to buy a new shaker.

Glass or stainless steel protein shakers are gaining in popularity, as they last much longer and, thanks to the quality of the material, are considerably more hygienic. Stainless steel shakers cannot be washed in the dishwasher, but are more robust.

Strainer or spring?

Perhaps the biggest shaker topic: is a shaker with a strainer or a spring (some call it a ball) better? It depends on what is more important to the person. A shaker with a strainer is not noisy and is more effective against larger lumps in the drink. But if seconds are the issue, you'll get faster results with a spring shaker.

You'll find fitness shakers from Vilgain, Nutrend or BioTech USA in the Aktin range.

Drinking regime will be supported by the right bottle or barrel

Adhering to a drinking regime is important whether one is at work, the gym or on a trek. A well‑chosen beverage can help with this problem. water bottles or barrels.

For the office, designer bottles are more suitable and will be a decoration on the desk. Our minimalist design is glass bottle Vilgain which comes with a bamboo lid and thermo sleeve. Voss bottles are popular both for their filling - refreshing water from a Norwegian glacier - and their minimalist design, which comes from Calvin Klein.

If you're going on a trek, look for a larger bottle. Almost legendary is the bottle Nalgene Wide Mouth which is considered almost indestructible, and the wide neck makes it easy to fill.
