CytoSport Monster Mass, Chocolate, 5.95 Pound (Health and Beauty) Allow me to introduce myself. My name is Phil I am 20 years old, 6 ft 1 and I weight about 188lbs with 11% body fat. I work out on a 5 day split: shoulders, arms, chest, back, legs. I have used monster mass for a little more than 2 weeks. After months of stagnating at roughly the same strength/muscle level I decided I wanted to get serious and gain more weight and power. I set a goal of 200-210 lbs with the same or less body fat % and can safely say that monster mass is helping me along my way. Although I was familiar with whey protein, I had never used a gainer shake before. Every week each of my muscle groups are tangibly stronger than the week before. My rep counts climb and I add weight to my lifts frequently. I usually drink one of these post workout, and sometimes drink one in the morning. The taste is, as the label indicates, extremely rich and satisfying (I have chocolate). It dissolves easily with water in my blender bottle but not so easily with milk. Drinking it with milk can also leave you bloated and heavy, but with water it goes through your system easily and does not fill you very much. My primary complaint with the product is the fat and cholesterol levels. One shake with water packs in about a third of your daily fat intake with about half of your saturated fat intake. In addition each has more than 40% of daily cholesterol. Although I have successfully managed to prevent fat gain by getting 45min – 1hour of cardio a day, if I didn’t have time for lots of walking and running I can see this product increasing my waist size. I also do my best to eat healthy organic foods: chicken breast, potatoes, bananas, peanut butter, greek yogurt, etc. Overall, I am happy with the product and will finish my 6lb tub. But for my next gainer, I will probably look for a lower fat, lower cholesterol product. Masstech gainer look pretty good in comparison. I just don’t see why there needs to be this much fat and cholesterol in the shake (can someone tell me). The carb and protein levels are satisfactory.
