Dorian Yates Formass 2.25kg

Formass is indicated for athletes seeking to increase their daily intake of 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’s authentic, uncompromising personality style, and philosophies forever changed the sport of bodybuilding.

Dorian states, “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, fibre and the Tempro cold temperature processed and diversified protein blend. I’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.”

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 5 high-quality carbohydrates including oat fibre, inulin 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 lean body weight, faster recovery and improved performance. Formass was repeatedly tested by Dorian and his scientific panel using different flavouring systems until they arrived at what he feels is the most delicious lean mass gainer you will ever use.

Increases 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)

Increases nitrogen balance (a positive nitrogen balance promotes muscle building; a negative one can prevent it)

Increases 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.

Decreases muscle protein breakdown (co-ingestion of carbs & proteins like those in Formass has been shown to reduce muscle protein breakdown)

Formass Directions:

Add 4 scoops of Formass (supplies 50g of protein) to cold water and mix to the desired consistency in a blender or shaker cup.

Recommended by DY: For hard training athletes, I recommend 2 servings per day when trying to increase muscle mass and body weight. Very active athletes may wish to stack Formass with Tempro to increase their intake of protein calories even further.
