What is Amplified Mass XXX™?
Need to pack on the pounds? AMPlify your gains with Amplified Mass XXX™ - our best mass gainer ever.* Exclusive to GNC, this rock solid formula is engineered with ingredients proven to help you increase lean mass, weight, strength and stamina.** Muscle up your diet with Amplified Mass XXX™ - the ultimate lean mass builder.
Amplified Mass XXX™ Evolution
What makes this product AMPlified? It all starts with basic science...
THE FOUNDATION - Science-Based Sports Nutrition:
Balanced Sports Nutrition + Training = Maximal Gains in Lean Mass and Performance
The science doesn't lie - without enough of the right carbs, quality proteins and healthy fats to compliment your training - you won't achieve maximal gains. The foundation Amplified Mass XXX™ provides a ratio of nutrients proven to accelerate increases in lean mass and exercise performance.** This champion blend weighs in at 750 calories, 50 grams of fast, medium and slow absorbing proteins and a 124 gram blend of important carbs - and the amounts are even higher when mixed with 2% milk. That's science-based nutrition for Advanced Muscle Performance.
THE EXTRAS - Beyond the Basics:
Wait. There's more. This motherload of mass gainers is enhanced beyond basic nutrition. Infused with functional blends of ingredients and technologies - this formula offers an arsenal of advantages...
Tri-MG Infusion™ - This anabolic blend consists of clinically studied betaine (a.k.a. trimethylglycine) and HMB. This combination of ingredients creates an anti-catabolic effect for your muscles.
Micronized Amino Acids - Using MicroSorb™ Amino Technology, the amino acids added to this formula are pulverized, or "micronized" from large molecules into smaller particles to facilitate faster absorption. Why is that important? Better absorption of amino acids means better muscle fuel. These key amino acids, including glutamine, arginine and leucine, all support muscle protein synthesis and other key processes crucial to gaining mass.
Creatine Matrix Blend - For added muscle benefits, this matrix includes 3 forms of creatine, plus other ingredients your body uses to make creatine. Creatine helps to improve training results, support immediate energy production during exercise and is important for muscle protein synthesis.
Who Should Take Amplified Mass XXX™?
Amplified Mass XXX™ can help any athlete trying to gain mass or put on added pounds.
When Should I Take It?
For maximum results, Amplified Mass XXX™ should be taken daily. On training days, the product should be consumed immediately after exercise. On non-training days, the product should be taken first thing in the morning or between meals.
3 SETS + AMPLIFIED MASS XXX™ = 5 SETS

Soy Protein for Sports & Fitness
SoyWhy Do Athletes Use It?*
Some athletes say that soy protein provides a source of low-fat, cholesterol-free protein.
What Do the Advocates Say?*
Protein is necessary for rebuilding tissue, which is especially important for bodybuilders. All types of protein provide the body with amino acids.
From an athletic point of view, soy is just another type of protein. Choosing soy protein over other types of protein adds variety to the protein choices available. However, because soy lowers cholesterol, it is an excellent choice for those also trying to lower their cholesterol levels.
Soy is a common ingredient in many meal replacements that are designed to provide a large amount of nutrients in a minimal amount of calories.
How Much Is Usually Taken by Athletes?
Adding protein to carbohydrate intake immediately after exercise may be helpful for improving recovery of glycogen (carbohydrate) stores after exercise, according to some,1, 2, 3 though not all,4, 5, 6, 7, 8 controlled studies. Preliminary studies have suggested that protein supplements may have biological effects that could improve muscle growth resulting from strength training, especially if liquid supplements (typically containing at least 10 grams of protein in addition to varying amounts of carbohydrate) are taken immediately after exercise.9, 10, 11 However, controlled studies have found no advantage of protein supplementation (up to about 100 grams per day or about 14 grams immediately following exercise) for improving strength or body composition as long as the diet already supplies typical amounts of protein and calories.12, 13, 14 In one preliminary study, elderly men participating in a 12-week strength training program took a liquid supplement containing 10 grams of protein (part of which was soy protein), 7 grams of carbohydrate and 3 grams of fat either immediately following exercise or two hours later.15 Men taking the supplement immediately following exercise experienced significantly greater gains in muscle growth and lean body mass than those supplementing two hours later, but strength gains were no different between the two groups. A controlled study of female gymnasts found that adding 0.45 grams of soy protein to a diet that was adequate in protein during an 8-week training program did not improve lean body mass compared to a placebo.16 No research has compared different sources of protein to see whether one source, such as soy protein, has a better or more consistent effect on exercise recovery or the results of strength training.

Comments about GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Mass XXX™ - Strawberry:
This stuff tastes great-but ONLY if you use a blender of sorts. At first I was using my handy GNC Shaker bottle-YUCK!! Would not fully dissolve & tasted horrible. Tried the blender-WOW! Literally rivals a McDs Strawberry Shake-but with the added benefit of lots of calories and protein! The four scoops and 2 cups of Milk is a little much for me, so I usually split it up into 2 seperate shakes an hour or so apart, or sometimes just have 2 scoops blended with 1 cup of milk-after all thats still 375 calories and 25 grams of protein. I would not recommend taking before workout, definitely makes me tired when I do so. Post workout it is perfect.

Comments about GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Mass XXX™ - Strawberry:
I am strength training 3x a week and thought I would try Amplified Mass XXX to give me more energy and gain some weight. I tried this for about 1 month and had results, good and bad...
PRO: I started making the shakes and taking them after a work out. I sometimes took half a serving before the workout, and the other half after the work out. I did gain about 5 pounds in the first couple weeks. I did notice that I seemed to have more energy, strength and stamina while taking the shakes.
CON: I had to stop taking the shakes because I was having migraine headaches. I am prone to Migraines and this seemed to trigger them. 1 or two migraines would have been normal over the course of the month, but I ended up having 8. I have stopped taking the shakes and am not having the migraines now. But now that I have stopped the shakes, I noticed that I am more fatigued after my workouts and they are a bit more of a struggle. Another con, in my opinion is that the taste of these shakes (Vanilla and Strawberry) was bad. It was chalky, and not strongly flavored, and I really had to force myeslf to drink it. I typically mixed this with Milk, but also tried it with water. It was a bit easier to take with the water. Also, you should drink plenty of water when taking this as well, but maybe that is obvious.
Conclusion: The product seems to do what it advertises, but at what cost? To me, the cost was too much, but if you are not prone to migraines or any other side effects, it may work for you.- Gender:

Comments about GNC Pro Performance® AMP Amplified Mass XXX™ - Strawberry:
this product is great i would recommend this to anyone at first i was skechy about it. but three weeks in my workout i went from 16% body fat to 14% and gained 8 pounds in muscle. it has great taste just like a smoothie. i took 2 scoops before workout and 2 scoops after. gives u energy. lean mass and increases strength and more reps in the weight room. i stopped taking it after the 3 weeks because it was the end of my bulking phase.but im about to get on it again. but like i said i highly recommend to anyone that wants to build mass and lose body fat at the same time!!
