WHAT’S IN IT?

WHEY PROTEIN CONCENTRATE (WPC)

Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC) helps to develop lean muscle mass, promote muscle growth and support rapid recovery after a workout. They have high biological value and protein efficiency.
The key benefit of Whey Protein Concentrate is that the rate of absorption is slightly slower than that of Whey Protein Isolate, and as such, the body is able to retain free form amino acids for a slightly longer period of time after exercise for lean muscle development.

CALCIUM CASEINATE

Calcium Caseinate is a slow digesting protein source that provides a steady release of amino acids that feed your muscles over a 12 hour period for optimal muscle recovery and growth. Slower digesting proteins are perfect for keeping you fuller for longer and avoiding nasty cravings!
A major benefit of Calcium Caseinate over Micellar Casein is that it’s virtually lactose free with less than 0.1% of lactose. Calcium Caseinate is also higher in protein than Micellar Casein and has lower levels of fat and carbohydrates.

EGG ALBUMEN PROTEIN

Egg White Protein is arguably the best protein available for muscle growth and recovery having the highest naturally occuring branched chain amino acids (BCAA’s). Egg White Protein contains very high amounts of vitamins and minerals including A, E, K & B vitamins, riboflavin and folic acid. They contain all eight essential amino acids needed for muscle recovery and the building of important minerals and is also completely lactose-free.

GLUTAMINE PEPTIDES

Optimum Nutrition – Serious Mass contains 250mg of naturally occuring Glutamine and Glutamic Acid that accelerates muscle growth and aids in recovery by prevent DOMS (Delayed Onset Muscle Soreness) .Glutamine is also an energy source for intestinal and immune cells. It also helps maintain the barrier between the intestines and the rest of your body and aids with proper growth of intestinal cells.

L-Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in muscle tissue, but can become depleted during intense exercise – which decreases strength and lengthens recovery. Glutamine also plays an important role in protein synthesis (the creation of muscle tissue) and for best results needs to be in a positive balance.
On top of that, Glutamine is the major component in the immune factor Glutathione, a deficiency of which often leaves hard-training athletes vulnerable to colds or infections.
Athletes and bodybuilders most often take supplemental L-Glutamine before, during, and after training to improve endurance, reduce muscle breakdown, and accelerate recovery.

MALTODEXTRIN

Maltodextrin is the sole source of carbohydrate in this weight gaining supplement, with a total of 256g of maltodextrin present per scoop. Maltodextrin is made from starch and is normally used in heavy weight gainers, as it is has both fast-digesting and fast-releasing. Replenish your glycogen stores fast with maltodextrin, and help up your carbohydrate intake easily!

MCT OIL BLEND

The consumption of MCT’s has been linked to improving energy production, supporting a healthy metabolism and delaying glycogen depletion, as well as being further characterised as a muscle energy source as opposed to being stored as adipose tissue.

CREATINE MONOHYDRATE

Creatine is the most important supplement for building muscle. Creatine works by regenerating ATP in the body. ATP is the only form of energy that all cells in the body can use. Jetmass formula contains creatine gluconate, creatine phosphate, creatine ethyl ester, creatine taurinate, and creatine anhydrous. Creatine is known to help with muscle volumization and prevent muscle fatigue.

Directions

Add two heaping scoops of Serious Mass to a blender filled with 24 oz of water. Blend for 45-60 seconds. Then add a few ice cubes and, if desired, other calorie-contributing ingredients (see Supercharge Your Serious Mass) and blend for an additional 30-45 seconds.

Tips

Mixing two scoops of Serious Mass with 24 fl oz of nonfat or low fat milk instead of water will give you a thicker, creamier, higher-calorie shake. New users may find if beneficial to begin with 1/2 of a serving daily for the first week and then gradually increase to 1 or more full servings several times a day. Serious Mass is a substantial weight-gain supplement that can be used to feed serious calorie needs in a variety or different ways.

Between Meals

Drink 1/2-1 serving of Serious Mass between meals to maintain positive nitrogen balance and support a high-calorie diet.

Post-Workout

Begin drinking 1/2-1 serving of Serious Mass 30-45 minutes following exercise to support maximum recovery.

Before Bed

Drink 1/2-1 serving of Serious Mass about 45-60 minutes before bed to provide nutrients to recovering muscle throughout the night.

Note

For best results use Serious Mass combined with intense weight training (3-5 times per week) and a sensible whole foods diet. Also, keep in mind that sufficient recovery between workouts impacts your ability to gain lean mass. Allowing at least 48 hours between workouts involving the same body parts is recommended. Store in a cool, dry place.
