Pro-Mass?? Any Good? England Rugby Player?

Question

Hey, i play rugby for England u18s, i often go to the gym but would like to get bigger, at the moment i am taking optimum nutrition whey protein, which has 36g of protein per 40g serving which i though was good.

Howethor, it is not making me much bigger, i think this is because is contains only 2g of carbs...

I have recently found out about Pro-Mass which contains 30g protein and 65g carbs per 100g serving, will adding lots of carbs to my diet via shakes make me 'bigger'.

Answer 1

I'd build the carbs into your diet.  Don't rely on stuff out of a bottle, and make sure they are complex carbs.  Mix beans and rice, squash and corn, etc.

For a basic bodybuilding supplement regimen, make sure you are taking: a good multi-vitamin, B-Complex, and Vitamin-C.  If you want good whey protein, try adding a scoop of dry milk to a glass of whole milk.  You'll get the same amount of whey protein as you find in your shakes, and you'll save a bunch of money.

After you've done all of that, I might add some Creatine Monohydrate to help you work out and add mass; just make sure you are getting plenty of fluids.

You're better off taking an opinion from a proper medical officer - a sports one at that.
