OK that does not mean that much though because the sample group is way too small to draw some real hard science out of it.

    What? The sample group is not way too small lol. It is fine.

    On top of that, there are already many other such studies on gym goers, comparing whey with vegan options, such as pea and soy protein. Those studies show that vegan options are as good as whey.
