I used this product to help put me into positive net calories. It is i think one of only two over-1000 calorie gainers on the market. the other is
Optimum's
Serious Mass, which i have also used and will compare this product to.
Profile-
Ultimate nutrition owns the
MASS gainer category with mj2600 and iso
MASS gainer.
Muscle Juice doesn't have all the extra goodies that iso
MASS has but it still has a solid profile with 1020 Calories, 56g protein, 14g fat, 170g carbs, and 18g sugar, 71% less than the
Original Muscle Juice 2544. Also contains mct's and omegas. I liked how there is no creatine because i choose to cycle it. Plus i would rather not use up my creatine storage on cheap
monohydrate, included in a lot of gainers.
Taste/mix/texture:
I had cookies and cream and it was great 8.5/10. Little floating cookie pieces were a nice addition. I enjoyed how sweet the flavor was and being able to mix it in a shaker cup. It leaves a little clumps which were
Bearable to just chew and swallow. Mixes perfect in a blender and has a very light texture. I could actually drink a full serving of this, but i tried to not drink much water before because it comes out to be almost a quart when mixed with water.
Value-10
This was the best thing about the product. If you search on sites like bodybuilding and
GNC.com you will find
Muscle Juice priced evenly among other gainers with 15-20 servings, like true
MASS and
Real Mass. But most of them are only about 6 lbs and provide about 600 calories per serving. Imo
Muscle Juice is the best deal you can get from a non-homemade gainer
Effectiveness:
I gained 10 pounds over two months between this and
Serious Mass. All of my lifts went up Considerably. But i attribute that to my
Cellucor c4, I started using both at the same time. this gainer did not cause me any stomach problems.
Ultimate nutrition claimed that there would be minimal bloating because of a sustained release carbohydrate blend. Sounds kind of iffy, but they tell no lies. Bloating was minimal. It was barely even noticeable. I could eat again in an hour.
Pros:
Great taste, less filling
Convenient
High calorie density
Cons: none
This is a great product for someone who needs a big calorie boost. I cant think of any cons.
