Pros and cons
Legion
Pros
- Range spans whey protein, plant protein and creatine, covering protein, creatine, pre-workout, electrolytes, meal replacement and bars.
- Whey protein powder delivers 22 g of protein per serving and is third-party tested.
- Subscription orders knock 15% to 30% off, backing an offer score of 9.3.
Cons
- Protein per serving sits at 22 g, below the site median of 24 and the protein powder median of 24.
- Entry price of $48.99 puts Legion at position 49 of 66 brands ranked on price from.
- GMP is the only certification listed under gmp, and third-party testing covers the whey protein powder alone.
ShakePlease
Pros
- Each serving carries 24 to 33 g, above the 20.25 lower quartile and the 24 median across the brands compared.
- The powder is third-party tested and produced to gmp standards, which removes the usual doubt about what sits in the blend.
- Subscriptions take 15% off, so the collagen plan's cost of $1.27 per serving drops for anyone ordering again.
Cons
- Only collagen appears in the range, where docmorris lists multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3 and life-extension lists multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3, so ShakePlease suits a narrow goal rather than a full supplement order.
- Support runs on email, chat and help centre, with no phone line among those channels for anyone who would rather talk it through.
- Selling is limited to US, so buyers elsewhere need a brand that already ships to them.
Who each suits
Legion
Who it suits
- Lifters and gym-goers buying whey or plant protein alongside creatine and pre-workout in one order
- Shoppers who order on a regular cycle and can catch 15% to 30% off each repeat
- Vegetarian and gluten-free buyers, since the protein range covers vegetarian and gluten free
Who should look elsewhere
- Buyers who want one product and nothing else, since HUM Nutrition keeps to plant protein and creatine
- Shoppers who need a mass gainer alongside protein, which Body Attack adds to its range of whey protein, plant protein and creatine
- Buyers who want performance products from a general supplement seller, since Myvitamins covers whey protein, creatine and electrolytes
ShakePlease
Who it suits
- Adults in the US who want collagen and protein in the same serving, at 24 to 33 g per scoop.
- People who will reorder and can sit on a subscription to take 15% off each order.
- Shoppers who want third-party testing and a 30 day window before committing to a full pouch.
Who should look elsewhere
- Anyone building a wider supplement order: docmorris lists multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3 and apotek-hjartat lists multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3 alongside collagen.
- Shoppers who want a longer catalog to browse: life-extension lists multivitamins, vitamins minerals and omega 3, which is a different shopping experience from a specialist.
- Buyers outside the US, since US is the only market listed, and anyone who needs a phone line, since support runs on email, chat and help centre.

Questions about each
Legion
What does Legion cost to start?+
Entry pricing starts at $48.99. That is the figure most buyers see first, and it places Legion at position 49 of 66 brands ranked on price from, so Legion does not compete at the cheapest end of the shelf.
What does one serving cost?+
A serving works out at $2.17, and that is where Legion reads better than its entry price suggests. It ranks position 29 of 46 brands on this measure, ahead of where it sits on price from.
ShakePlease
How much does a ShakePlease order cost to start?+
The collagen plan lists an entry price of $38.24, which works out at $1.27 per serving across the pouch. On cost per serving ShakePlease ranks 67 of 121, so the running cost sits closer to the middle of the market than the ticket price does.
What does a ShakePlease subscription save?+
Subscriptions take 15% off, so the same collagen plan costs less each time it repeats. That suits anyone already sure about the taste and format, and suits a cautious first trial less well. A 30 day money-back window buys some room to decide before the next order goes out.
