- Directions
- DIRECTIONS: Add two heaping scoops of Serious Mass(TM) 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(TM)" on the opposite panel) and blend for an additional 30-45 seconds. TIPS: Mixing two scoops of Serious Mass(TM) with 24 oz. of nonfat or low fat milk instead of water will give you a thicker, creamier, higher-calorie shake. New users may find it 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.
- BETWEEN MEALS: Drink 1/2 - 1 serving of Serious Mass(TM) between meals to maintain positive nitrogen balance and support a high-calorie diet. POST-WORKOUT: Begin drinking 1/2 - 1 serving of Serious Mass(TM) 30-45 minutes following exercise to support maximum recovery. BEFORE BED: Drink 1/2 - 1 serving of Serious Mass(TM) about 45-60 minutes before bed to provide nutrients to recovering muscle throughout the night.
