Serious Mass Overview
Optimum Nutrition's Serious Mass may be the weight-gainer to end all weight-gainers. With an unbelievable 1250 calories per serving, one shake's worth of Serious Mass could feed a small village. OK, not really, but Optimum Nutrition wasn't kidding around when they named this weight gain powder Serious Mass. It's not a product for everyone. But by the same token, intensively-training younger athletes, or those already in peak condition don't have average metabolisms or nutritional needs. For these athletes, getting enough calories to maintain their muscle mass and strength is hard enough, let alone consuming enough to grow quality mass. Ordinary protein powders and meal replacements don't cut it for these users. A weight-gainer would be a better choice, but most of them are just glorified protein powders, with added carbs and an arbitrarily increased serving size. So, don't mess around with generic weight gainers. If you really need calorie-dense supplement to help put on some size, Serious Mass is much better choice for you. Serious Mass is the most calorie-intense shake on the market, packing an unbelievable 50 grams of a mass-building protein blend - more than 8 whole eggs - into each 1250 calorie shake. Besides protein, Serious Mass is also fortified with creatine, glutamine, glutamine peptides, vitamins and minerals, everything you need to build lean mass, provided you're training hard. Granted, not everyone needs that kind of nutritional density, so keep in mind that you can use smaller servings of Serious Mass, if that suits your needs better. You can expect great taste and mixability from Serious Mass, since it's made by protein powder mega-giant Optimum Nutrition. Nobody offers more flavors, or better flavors, in their protein line than Optimum Nutrition. So while you don't use a product like Serious Mass for its taste, it's nice to not have to force a shake down on account of lousy or lackluster flavor. Mix with water, or with milk for even more calories and protein.

Directions For Serious Mass:
Add two heaping scoops of Serious Mass to a blender filled with 24 oz (710 mL) of water. Blend for 45-60 seconds. Then add a few ice cubes and, if desired, other calorie-contributing ingredients and blend for an additional 30-45 seconds.
Tips: Mixing two scoops of Serious Mass with 24 oz (710 mL) 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 of 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.
