PVL Mutant whey - thickest shake I've tried!

After a few weeks of using this protein powder I thought it was about time to share my opinion.

Overall I believe this is a good powder to use. 37g serving contains 22g of protein. It doesn't mix the best as it leaves some small lumps of powder behind, however adding more milk/water gets rid of this problem.




It has a very thick consistency and an acquired taste as it is quite hard going, however after a few days you get used to the taste, and how filling these shakes are.

In my opinion this is a good taste. It delivers exactly what it says on the bag and with, in my opinion, a good taste and consistency.



I also believe that this product is priced fairly (depending on where you purchase from (Discount Supplements on sale!))

I used this along side my usual workout and cardio sessions and found it helped with the aching you get after a hard session.

Overall I would give it an 8/10 just because of the mixing problem, other than that a really good product!

Thank you for reading,

Universal Nutrition Animal Cuts - 9 tabs per pack!

I've been using this product in preparation for a better year, less body fat year round and a better gain in muscle mass.

I've read reviews which say its hard going and a pain to take the packs and to remember the timing, but they all point towards good results, so I thought why not try it.

The serving guide tells you to take two packs, one as soon as you wake with a small meal, and one 4 to 6 hours after with a small meal.



I found that after taking the first pack, with a hell of a lot of water by the way, I felt slightly dazed and a little bit nauseous. I think this is due to the amount of tabs you have to take per pack (9).

These 9 tabs consist of a yellow one, red one, two blue ones, an orange one, two white ones, a red and white one, and a blue and white one. The information on the box tells you what each tab is and what it does so I won't bore you to death with that.




Following the instructions on the packaging, I took two packs a day for 3 weeks followed by a week without.

I found that using these tabs and my usual diet and exercise, I managed to lose 3% body fat in 3 weeks. This is a very good result as I find it quite hard to lose body fat, even with regular HIIT sessions and high rep workouts.

The queasy feeling I was getting after taking the tabs subsided after a few days and it just became part of my day to day life.

I found an increase in energy during my workouts, and even some gains in strength.

I haven't noticed any loss in muscle mass or density as a result of using this product and found it very useful in reducing fat.

As an overall review I would give it a solid 9/10, as some side effects were experienced at the start, but these weren't serious and they subsided very quickly!

Again, thank you for reading,

Josh
