Formass Chocolate Calorie Support Body Weight Muscle Mass Recovery. 50g Protein Tempro Blend 88g Carbohydrate Formass Blend 680 Calories for mass building. FORMASS is indicated for athletes seeking to increase their daily intake high-quality carbohydrate and protein calories in an effort to gain or preserve body weight or muscle mass and improve recovery. DORIAN YATES is a former 6x Mr. Olympia respected around the world for his knowledge of training and nutrition. Dorian authentic uncompromising personality style and philosophies forever changed the sport of bodybuilding.quot;FORMASS was developed by my scientific panel of PhDs nutritionists and technical consultants. I supervised the entire process to make sure it helps you gain as much lean body weight as possible as quickly as possible and keep it on. We used the highest quality ingredients including low-glycemic and branched-chain carbohydrates MCTs digestive enzymes fiber and the TEMPRO cold temperature processed and diversified protein blend. Iapos;m confident that you will never find another lean gainer that works as powerfully as FORMASS or that tastes as addictively delicious. The athletes I train use it every day as do I.quot; When trying to gain body weight athletes should focus on increasing muscle mass (lean body weight) while minimizing fat gain. This requires stimulating the synthesis of both muscle protein and glycogen. A single bout of resistance exercise can lower muscle glycogen levels 30-40%. Low muscle glycogen levels can hurt performance delay recovery and impede muscle growth. If no calories are consumed after exercise both muscle glycogen and protein synthesis will remain depressed. The fastest and most effective way to replenish glycogen and stimulate protein synthesis post-training is to consume high-quality carbohydrate and protein calories. FORMASS contains the TEMPRO cold processed and diversified protein blend to which we have added 6 high-quality carbohydrates including low-glycemic rice oligodextrin and hydrolysates of waxy maize (rich in branched-chain carbohydrates) and potato. This combination is believed to produce longer-lasting increases in whole-body anabolism leading to greater increases in leanbody weight faster recovery and improved performance. FORMASS was repeatedly tested by Dorian and his scientific panel using different flavoring systems until they arrived at what he feels is the most delicious lean mass gainer you will ever use. POTENTIAL BENEFITS (where up = quot;enhancesquot; or quot;increasesquot; and down = quot;reducesquot;) replenishment of muscle glycogen stores (low muscle glycogen stores delay recovery ; impede muscle growth)(ingestion of carbohydrates [carbs] like those in FORMASS has been shown to accelerate muscle glycogen replenishment after exercise) nitrogen balance (a positive nitrogen balance promotes muscle building; a negative one can prevent it) whole-body ; muscle protein synthesis rates (lean body weight cannot increase without an increase in protein synthesis)(co-ingestion of carbs ; proteins like those in FORMASS has been shown to increase whole-body ; muscle protein synthesis rates by 29% ; 49% respectively) muscle protein breakdown (co-ingestion of carbs ; proteins like those in FORMASS has been shown to reduce muscle protein breakdown) growth hormone ; IGF-1 (GH ; IGF-1 enhance lean body weight)(co-ingestion of carbs ; proteins like those in FORMASS has been shown to increase GH levels greater than ingestion of protein alone or a placebo)(proteins like those in FORMASS have been shown to increase IGF-1 production in muscle in resistance exercising subjects) type I ; II muscle fiber hypertrophy (proteins like those in FORMASS have been shown to increase the size of both muscle fiber types in resistance exercising subjects) muscle mass ; thickness (proteins like those in FORMASS have been shown to produce greater gains in muscle mass ; thickness from resistance exercise) lean body weight (co-ingestion of carbs ; proteins like those in FORMASS has been shown to produce greater gains in lean body weight in resistance exercising subjects) muscle strength (co-ingestion of carbs ; proteins like those in FORMASS has been shown to improve strength gains from resistance exercise) speed of recovery from training muscle damage ; soreness recovery from injuries (co-ingestion of carbs ; proteins like those in FORMASS has been found to increase muscle mass ; strength in men ; women recovering from knee injuries) sarcopenia (loss of muscle mass ; function associated with aging) overall appearance ; performance.
