Unique benefits:
- 25% BCAAs in the protein content.
- Low fat and sugar content.
Effectiveness
Like all other gainers, this gainer is needed for the following purposes:
- Increasing overall caloric intake.
- Muscle mass growth.
- Accelerating recovery.
- Increasing strength endurance.
- Substituting regular meals when it is difficult to eat.
In addition to the above, it should be noted that this gainer belongs to the category of high-protein. This means it contains 30% protein or more. Thus, it will contribute more to muscle growth and less to fat gain. However, it will also be more expensive than its lower-protein counterparts.
How to take
Here are the main rules for taking:
- Regardless of the number of workouts, it is better to take it every day.
- Take 1-2 times a day (depending on how many calories you wish to gain from the gainer). Once in the first half of the day and another in the second.
- It is best to take it right after a workout and/or between meals. But not simultaneously with your main meal.
- It is better to mix it with milk. Water is also acceptable. The amount of liquid is a matter of taste and does not affect the outcome.
- You can add creatine, BCAAs, protein, and basically anything else you wish to the gainer.
- For an effect, the duration of intake should be at least a month.
- Maximum duration of intake - unlimited. This means it can be taken for life without breaks.
Dosage per intake:
- For weight up to 60 kg: 30-40 grams at a time.
- For weight up to 80 kg: 40-50 grams at a time.
- For weight up to 100 kg: 50-60 grams at a time.
- For weight over 100 kg: 60-70 grams at a time.
Naturally, all dosages are provided as approximations. They largely depend on your overall activity, number of workouts, the amount of gainer consumed, how much you are under-eating compared to normal food, etc. You can calculate your exact portion here.
Attention! Do not be misled by the dosage indicated by the manufacturer. Most manufacturers intentionally inflate it. I believe this is done so that you consume it faster and buy a new one.
