Maximuscle Progain 2000g
Progain is Britains best selling weight gainer. It's advanced technology has made it staple diet for many top athletes, bodybuilders, and sports stars alike, from beginners to advanced.
Unlike other weight gainers, which load up the calories with proteins that cause side effects, such as egg, milk, casein, and soya. Progain contains that same exclusive BIOMAX protein as used in Promax. So you won't suffer from wind and stomach upset etc...
To ensure that the weight you gain is lean muscle and not fat, we avoid simple carbohydrates. Simple carbs raise blood sugar levels, causing excessive insulin release, which results in fat storage.
We only use low glycemic maltodextrin, this provides sustained energy release and is the least likely to turn to fat.
Fats are an essential part of any weight gainer, but it's vital, that the correct fats are used. So we only use MCTs, a unique fat that provides 9 calories per gram, yet the body treats as a carbohydrate, resulting in a minimum fat storage.
To make the weight gainer complete, we've also added an excellent multi-vitamin and mineral blend to offer all round nutrition. If you've used other weight gainers, you'll be amazed at how well Progain mixes. You don't need milk with Progain, it mixes with water with a few stirs of a fork, no blenders needed....and once you've tasted it, you'll be blown away. It's no wander it's been voted the best tasting weight gainer for the last three years running! One serving of Progain (120g) offers you an easy to digest 600 calories of high quality nutrition.

Recommended use
Mix 2 scoops (120gm) of progain with 500ml of water. Stir with a fork for around 10 seconds or mix in a Maximuscle shaker and drink within 5 minutes. Progain is best when mixed with water, not milk or fruit juice. For best results start taking 2 scoops a day for a week, if you don't notice an increase of around 1-2 lbs a week, add another scoop to your daily servings. Each week, raise your daily scoop servings by one, until you are gaining 1-2 lbs weekly. If you want to put on muscle you should be using Progain in conjunction with an effective training regime and high protein diet. You should monitor your fat levels to make sure the weight you are gaining is muscle and not fat.
Some people choose to add extra protein to their Progain to boost protein intake even further. There are some great tasting flavour combinations you can make by mixing Progain and Maximuscle's protein powder, Promax. For optimum energy levels and recovery, try taking half a scoop of Prograin around 45 minutes before training and 1 scoop immediately after.
