The JYM Line Adds a Mass Gainer! Chocolate Cookie Crunch Mass JYM

I would like to thank COUNTRYMIKE for a mega hook up: Mass JYM, JYM Shaker, and samples! I will be logging Mass Jym! Giving you guys are the details you could every want to know! I requested and received the chocolate cookie crunch flavor! :)

[center][B]THE CM HOOKUP[/B][/center]

[Center][B][U]Introduction and Training[/U][/B][/Center]

I am a 5' 10" 210 lb 23 year old and have been lifting for quite a long time, since my sophomore year of high school for varsity football. Football is what really sparked my interest in lifting. I did numerous different power lifting and strength training programs during my time playing football at the varsity level in both high school and college. During my later years of college, I transitioned into bodybuilding in addition to the power lifting and strength training work that I was doing for football, which is a practice I have continued in to graduate school (master's degree in financial economics) and now into the work force.

[Center][B][U]Nutrition[/U][/B][/Center]

During this log, my training will consist of a lot of hypertrophy-focused super-sets with power lifting mixed in. I'll be trying to eat 2,750 to 3,000 calories a day with 30-35% being protein (the rest being complex carbs and healthy fats). I really won't be counting macros/calories though!

[Center][U][B]Supplementation[/B][/U][/Center]

In terms of regular supplementation, I usually take heavy maintenance doses of well-researched ergogenic aids from bulk sources (creatine, betaine, beta-alanine). During this log, I will drop the added ergogens and just use what is it PreCre XS. I also take vitamin D3 at 2000-5000 IUs per day, methylfolate (I have a minor MTHFR deficiency - not a health concern but does require methylfolate supplementation to avoid morbidity down the road), a b-complex, and a ZMA supplement at night (or zinc and magnesium).

[Center][B][U]Product Introduction: MASS JYM[/U][/B][/Center]
So this is what Mass Jym advertises on the bb.com store page:

[color=brown][B]30 grams of protein from quality sources. No concentrate protein.

30 grams of carbohydrates from a combination of Pea Starch, Polydextrose, I****ltulose, Oat Fiber, and Dextrose. No maltodextrin.

Complete transparency. You see the exact gram amount of each protein and carbohydrate source.[/B][/color]

Clearly this is a unique mass gainer that isn't messing around. It is great to see the avoidance of maltodextrin and the 1:1 carb to protein ratio. The ratio is something I really haven't seen in any other gainer, and I really appreciate the lower carb amount. It makes the gainer effective but still easy to accommodate in a diet trying to restrict carbs. I will delve more deeply into the formula because it is complex and pretty solid all around as the log progress. You can check out the nutrition fact panel below; however, more of the formula is disclosed on the tub and product page.

[Center][color=brown][B][U]Mass JYM Preview[/U][/B][/color][/Center]
I threw a full leveled scoop of the chocolate cookie crunch Mass Jym in 10 oz of 1% milk and blended it up. The consistency was pretty good - a little thick, some bubbling, but everything mixed up. I continued to add a couple more ounces of milk as I was drinking it to thin out the consistency to a more desirable point. I will try water next run to see if it's smoother that way. The flavor was excellent. It was a full flavorful chocolate with the edge of cookies and little cookie crumble pieces too. I was really happy with the flavor. One of the better gainer or even protein powder flavors I have tried. So far, I am very satisfied with Mass Jym!

I'm sure you'd love the flavor! I think anyone would! So good!

Great pics, I love how they filled the tub all the way up, no settling halfway down to make it look half empty!

I have this flavor also but I only use water for my shakes and it mixed VERY well in water
and the taste is rich and texture was perfect in water.

Yes, it's awesome they filled it to the top!

Yes, I tried it with water this morning! It was excellent! This is a great mass gainer! Really big fan!

Put in an awesome workout then housed a serving of Mass Jym! Stuff is off the charts in terms of taste and mix-ability for a gainer. I am loving it!

This Choc Cookie Crunch has also been like a real treat post workout especially after
a KILLER :eek: leg workout.

I'm gonna borrow your leg workout as soon as I'm cleared to lift again. And probably some of your meals too :p

Mmm you have that right! The taste is soooo delicious! It is basically a dessert. Curbs those sweet tooth cravings. :)

[QUOTE=COUNTRYMIKE;1484571521]I'm gonna borrow your leg workout as soon as I'm cleared to lift again. And probably some of your meals too :p[/QUOTE]

Please do! My leg workouts are murder. Painful pumps and leg cramps definitely happen. Hopefully you get healthy and are cleared soon. Injuries are so frustrating.

Still doing Mass Jym on the daily and loving it! Blasted some arms yesterday and guzzled down some great Mass Jym!

How is the apple flavor?

Have you used the Orange kream? I'm really looking forward to trying it!

I love just about anything orange flavored, my brother and I drank a full bottle of Orange Cream flavored moonshine just sitting around talking a couple weeks back

The apple flavor is excellent. It has a real kick! I really enjoy it.

Haven't tried the Orange Kream yet, but will probably get that in the mix tomorrow. :)

I am going to need to get another tub of Mass Jym when this is all done. Would love to try the S'mores flavor. I have to think about some alternative ways I can use the product as well though I am not the best at baking. I'm sure the powder is pretty versatile.

The tacos (ate way more than on! :o) were awesome!

I'm a fan of goblet squats too! Really feel the burn on them too.

I have continued to work Mass Jym into my daily routine and things have gone well. I think I have definitely put on some weight (in a good way) during this log. I briefly hit up the Arnold this weekend. Wish I could have spent more time there, but it was packed. I didn't have all day to hang around.

Here's what I did on Sunday!

Nice! I haven't opened Orange Kream yet either but might do so today. I've been working through the Pre-Kaged though.

I've been turning through Mass Jym and have been truly impressed by this product. It is one of the best tasting protein powders let alone mass gainers that I have ever tried. I am a huge fan, and plan to purchase in the future. I will have my final review of the product up soon!

Final reviews are incoming on all three of the products that have been featured in this log: Mass Jym, PRE-Kaged, and RE-Kaged!!

This products are legitimately impressive. The flavoring, formula, and effects are all top notch quality. Some of the absolute best you can find on the market. I think it may be 10s across the board for all these products. Pre-Kaged may be a high 9. I'll formulate my final decision on this awesome grouping of products soon. Hopefully will have all the reviews posted up tomorrow. Sorry for the delay CountryMike!
