Trust & Pharmacist Advice
Gaining weight and muscle mass requires a consistent calorie surplus alongside appropriate resistance training. Serious Mass provides a convenient way to increase calorie intake while supplying high-quality protein that contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass.
The formula also contains 3g of creatine monohydrate, which meets the daily intake required for the authorised EFSA claim that creatine increases physical performance during successive bursts of short-term, high-intensity exercise.
Because each serving is large, many users find it easier to begin with half a serving and gradually increase intake as tolerated. Serious Mass should complement a balanced diet rather than replace nutritious whole-food meals.
