BSNTRUE-MASS Weight Gainer, Muscle Mass Gainer Protein Powder, Vanilla Ice Cream, 5.82 Pound

I've been working out for the last 6 months or so with the goal of putting on muscle mass & bulking up a bit. I'm a tall, skinny guy (aka hard gainer), and what makes things even more challenging is that I recently had a baby who I often take care of. If you've done any childcare, then you know how difficult it can be to get a decent meal in while the kid is crying and tearing the house up. It was almost impossible for me to get in enough calories to make any gains even though I hit the weights 3xs per week. I did some research and found out there were high calorie shakes that could help me with my weight goals. I read a bunch of Amazon reviews and I decided on ordering BSN True Mass (Chocolate flavor) and was surprised how decent it tasted. I've been through I think 4 or 5 tubs of this stuff so far, and I still don't mind drinking it. I guess I should try another flavor, but I'm a bit afraid the other flavors might not taste as good. I usually make a blended shake with frozen bananas & other fruits, milk or rice milk, and sometimes peanut butter. It's good stuff, pretty easy to drink, and I haven't noticed any gas or anything like that. My original goal was to go from a scrawny 153lbs to 163lbs. Well in just a few months I'm already at 171lbs! (I don't mean to sound like an infomercial, but it's true.) So now I'm setting a new goal of 193lbs (I'll keep you posted on the progress).About a month ago I was curious to check out some of the competing brands, so I tried ON's Serious Mass because it had pretty decent reviews and a good price. A word of advice-- ON Serious Mass tastes DISGUSTING!! I thought it would be similar to BSN True Mass, but it wasn't at all. The serving sizes were insane and the stuff tasted like oily rotten artificially flavored nastiness. I gagged a bit the first time I tried to drink ON Serious Mass it because it was so nasty. I usually don't leave too many reviews on Amazon, but Serious Mass was so bad that I wrote a one star review explaining why it tasted like crap. Do yourself a favor and spend the extra few bucks to get BSN True Mass (or some other brand that is not ON Serious Mass).Good luck with your gains!

This is a great addition to a meal replacement protein shake. It gives a good punch of carbs, fat, protien and vitamins. It tastes pretty good to boot, which can be expected since it isn't 100% protein like your typical whey. I am trying to lose weight, so I am not doing the 3 scoops 3x a day, but I do add 1.5 scoops to my protien shakes to replace breakfast and lunch. This gives me the full allotment of vitamins and minerals and adds some girth to the protien powder. It will also fill you up as I can easily go 4 or 5 hours after the shake without a full meal (only a piece of fruit as a snack when necessary). I have been using it for two weeks of a two month plan and it is doing its job nicely.I have noticed that since starting the shake routine with my workouts, I recover quicker and in general, I "feel healthier." I don't know if this is exclusive to this product or if it can be attained by using other similar formulas, but this works for me.Overall, I am very satisfied with the BSN as an addition to a meal replacement shake. I cannot comment on its stated goal of a "mass gainer", but can say that if you take the full serving three times a day, it may be difficult to eat as this stuff fills you up. Having said that, if you can still eat after the shake, you'll definitely gain weight.Let me tell you a little about me for perspective. Contrary to the product's title, I am not looking to bulk up. I am overweight and trying to lose weight by working out and diet control. This is one of the ingredients in my meal replacement shake. I drink a shake for breakfast and lunch each day. The formula for my shake is 1.5 scoops of Mass Gainer, 1 scoop of whey protien, 8 oz. of skim milk and 8 oz of water mixed in a blender bottle.

I’ve been taking this on and off for almost a decade. I’ve tried many gainers and this is by far my favorite and for 300+ grams a serving it mixes easy and chocolate is my favorite flavor and I don’t even eat chocolate candy. Very effective good price especially if you click buy again
