FAQs

How often should I take Serious Mass?

For optimal results, it's recommended to take Serious Mass 1-2 times daily. Common times include post-workout, between meals, or before bedtime, depending on your caloric needs and overall diet plan. Consult with a healthcare professional or dietitian for personalized advice.

Can women use Serious Mass?

Yes, Serious Mass can be used by women who are looking to gain weight and muscle mass. The recommended serving size may need to be adjusted based on individual caloric needs, activity level, and body goals.

Is Serious Mass a meal replacement?

While Serious Mass is high in calories and nutrients, it is designed as a dietary supplement to complement your existing meals, not to replace them entirely. It helps increase overall caloric and nutrient intake to support weight and muscle gain.

What's the best way to mix Serious Mass?

For the smoothest consistency, blending two scoops with 24 fl oz (710 ml) of cold water or milk in a blender is recommended. If using a shaker cup, ensure it's large enough and shake vigorously for 45-60 seconds.

Are there any known side effects?

Some individuals may experience bloating or mild digestive discomfort, especially when first starting or consuming a full serving. Starting with a smaller dose and gradually increasing can help mitigate this. If adverse reactions occur, discontinue use and consult a healthcare professional.

How long will one tub of Serious Mass last?

The duration a tub lasts depends on the tub size and your individual usage (e.g., one or two servings per day). Please refer to the product packaging for the number of servings per container.

Does Serious Mass contain creatine?

Yes, Optimum Nutrition Serious Mass includes creatine monohydrate as one of its key ingredients to support strength, power, and muscle performance.

Troubleshooting

Difficulty mixing Serious Mass, resulting in clumps.

For best results, use a blender. Add liquid first, then gradually add the powder while blending. If using a shaker, use a larger volume of liquid than recommended and shake vigorously for a longer duration (45-60 seconds), or add half the powder, shake, then add the rest and shake again.

Experiencing bloating or digestive discomfort after consuming.

Start with a smaller serving size (e.g., one scoop instead of two) and gradually increase to the full recommended serving over a few days or weeks as your digestive system adjusts. Ensure you are drinking adequate water throughout the day.

Not seeing desired weight or muscle gain.

Ensure consistent daily intake as recommended. Re-evaluate your overall caloric intake from all food sources to ensure you are in a sustained caloric surplus. Review your training intensity and consistency. Consult with a nutritionist or personal trainer for personalized advice.

The taste is too strong or too bland.

Adjust the amount of liquid used for mixing to suit your taste preference. For a richer flavor, mix with milk instead of water. For a milder taste, use more liquid. You can also blend with fruits like bananas or berries, or a spoonful of peanut butter to enhance flavor.

Setup, Compatibility & Care

Setup:

To prepare a serving of Optimum Nutrition Serious Mass, add two scoops (approximately 334g) of the powder to 24 fl oz (710 ml) of cold water, milk, or your preferred beverage. For optimal mixing, especially due to its density, a blender is recommended. If using a shaker cup, ensure it has a large capacity and shake vigorously for 45-60 seconds. You may add ice cubes, fruit, peanut butter, or other supplements to enhance the flavor and nutritional profile.

Compatibility:

This product is compatible with individuals who have a high metabolic rate, athletes engaged in intense training, or anyone struggling to consume sufficient calories through whole foods to achieve weight and muscle gain. It is generally not recommended as a meal replacement for those not actively trying to gain weight due to its high caloric content. Consult a healthcare professional or dietitian before use if you have any pre-existing medical conditions or are taking medication.

Care:

Store Optimum Nutrition Serious Mass in a cool, dry place, away from direct sunlight and moisture. Ensure the container is tightly sealed after each use to maintain freshness and prevent clumping. Keep out of reach of children. Do not use if the safety seal is broken or missing.
