After protein, I consider fat the second most critical macronutrient, especially if gaining muscle mass and strength is important to you.ĭietary fat is quite anabolic when you consume the right amounts and types of it in the proper balance.* This holds especially true for healthy men. It was deemed the devil for decades before real science stepped in and showed how essential most fats are. Yet maximal muscle cell volume has more to do than just looking bigger – it also places a stretch on the muscle cell membrane that can help signal biochemical pathways leading to an increase in muscle protein synthesis, which can help lead to long-term increases in muscle growth.* Mass JYM Fat Blendįat is the most misunderstood macronutrient. The higher the muscle glycogen content, the fuller (bigger) the muscle will be. Glycogen, the storage form of carbohydrates in muscle, pulls water into muscle cells. I designed the carb blend in Mass JYM mainly from pea starch, isomaltulose, and oat fiber to deliver a 3:1 ratio of low-GI to high-GI carbs.Īt this ratio, you are unlikely to spike insulin (outside of a normal range) or add fat as easily as you would with a mass-gainer that relies more heavily on high-GI carbs like sugar, dextrose, or maltodextrin alone.* It also means Mass JYM works well as a pre-workout carb source, as it provides a small amount of quick fuel followed by a larger amount of long-lasting fuel to help provide energy from the start of your workout all the way to the end.* Research further suggests that when consuming carbs before and/or during workouts, the body is in a more anabolic state.*Īnother way carbs are essential to maximizing muscle growth has to do with muscle cell volume. Mass JYM’s ratio of low-glycemic (low-GI) to high-glycemic (high-GI) carbs is another key aspect that makes this formula a true lean-mass-gainer. Consume too many carbs, and you could gain body fat in addition to muscle.* Take in too few carbs, and you might not optimize muscle growth.* The 1:1 ratio of protein to carbs helps keep the gains lean and steady.* Research studies suggest that a protein blend providing more slow-digesting casein than fast-acting whey and a medium-digesting protein elevates muscle protein synthesis longer and leads to greater net protein balance than whey protein alone.* Simply put, a protein blend like the one in Mass JYM can be more anabolic than whey on its own.* Mass JYM Carbohydrate BlendĮach serving of Mass JYM contains 30 to 34 grams of carbohydrates to deliver a 1:1 ratio of protein to carbs. This protein blend provides just enough fast-digesting whey to help quickly stimulate muscle protein synthesis, plus adequate amounts of slow-digesting casein to keep protein synthesis elevated after ingestion.* Egg white protein provides a medium-digesting protein source that also provides higher levels of sulfur-containing amino acids as compared to dairy protein. Mass JYM delivers 50% casein from micellar casein and milk protein isolate 40% whey protein from cold-filtered whey protein isolate and milk protein isolate and 10% egg white protein. Mass JYM Protein Blendĭesigned to the exact specifications as my award-winning Pro JYM protein – each serving of Mass JYM delivers 30 grams of high quality protein. I essentially designed Mass JYM to be Pro JYM™ plus an equal amount of carbs – primarily low-glycemic and the perfect fat blend. Otherwise, you won’t know if it’s a lean-mass-builder or just another “fat-gainer” made of cheap protein concentrate and sugar. It’s not enough to know just the total amount of protein, carbs and fat that a mass-gainer provides – you need to know the precise amounts of each type of protein, each type of carb, and each type of fat. Whether you use it as a meal supplement on the go or as a mass gainer, rest assured that you’re getting quality ingredients and quality calories that, when combined with training and a proper whole food diet, will go toward packing on lean muscle mass, not excess body fat.* Why Mass JYM is Different Than Other Mass Gainers Unlike many mass-gainers that include twice as many carbs as protein, Mass JYM contains a 1:1 ratio of protein to carbs for “clean” gains.* Mass JYM is the first mass-gainer to use a non-proprietary protein blend (Pro JYM) along with a non-proprietary low-glycemic carbohydrate source, and a non-proprietary fat source.
