Maxs Shred System Protein

Max's Lean Protein Blend - Max's Shred System Protein combines fast and medium acting Whey Proteins with slower acting Caseins to keep you recovering and growing for longer. But there’s another benefit for trainers wanting to get ripped. Casein Proteins form a gel in your stomach during digestion, which is why it is much slower to digest. The benefit to you is - it keeps you feeling fuller for longer, which is ideal when you are watching your calorie intake! This is the science behind our Max's Lean Protein Blend. You get the benefit of fast, medium and slow absorbing proteins: 

• Hydrolyzed Whey Peptides – Immediate: Pre-digested Whey Peptides provide amino acids for rapid absorption and assimilation

• Whey Protein Isolate (WPI) – Fast: WPI is natures best protein for building lean muscle

• Whey Protein Concentrate (WPC) – Medium: WPC is an excellent muscle builder with many health-promoting benefits

• Casein – Slow: Casein gels in your stomach during digestion which means it is absorbed slower

• Milk Protein Isolate - Ultra Slow. MPI has a high proportion of Micellar Casein, a very slow digesting and absorbing protein to maximise long term gains

Max's Thermogenic Fat Burning Complex - Thermogenic literally means to “produce heat”. Thermogenic nutrients increase your resting metabolism by burning fat to produce heat and increase energy. By stimulating your body to burn more fat all day you will get progressively leaner and more muscular. Max's Shred System Protein combines powerful Thermogenic compounds for 24-hour fat incineration:

• Conjugated Linoleic Acid (CLA) – is a unique type of fatty acid to exhibits a wide range of beneficial metabolic and health effects. Studies confirm CLA has a strong positive effect on body composition with prolonged use by increasing uptake of nutrients (fats, carbs and protein) into muscle cells that leads to enhanced protein synthesis, higher metabolic rates and reduced fat storage.

• Green Tea Extract – contains powerful antioxidants called catechin polyphenols that are responsible for many health benefits. One catechin in particular, Epigallocatechin gallate (EGCG), stimulates your metabolism to burn fat and accelerate weight loss. EGCG stimulates the central nervous system and causes fat to be released into the blood stream for the body to use as fuel.

• Raspberry Ketones – are organic compounds that give raspberries their colour and flavour. They stimulate fat cells to mobilize stored fat which can then be burned for fuel to get you leaner with more energy

• African Mango Seed Extract - increases specific blood levels of the fat metabolism regulators leptin and adiponectin that increase your fat burning metabolism.

• Guarana - comes from the seeds of a South American shrub Paullinia Cupana. The primary active compounds in guarana are the alkaloids theobromine. These compounds combine to stimulate the central nervous system, increasing your metabolic rate and thermogenesis.

• Caffeine – research shows that caffeine helps trainers burn up to twice as many fat calories in the hours after finishing exercise. Caffeine will also improve performance during both short term high-intensity exercise such as weight training and also helps increase output during endurance exercise.

• Acetyl L-Carnitine – is a naturally occurring amino acid that helps shunt free fatty acids from your bloodstream into muscle cell mitochondria giving the double benefit of providing more fuel for greater energy plus increased fat burning for greater fat loss.

Max's Carb Blocking Complex - Trainers looking to achieve that sought after lean and shredded look know that it's not just about fat intake, but also about manipulating dietary carbohydrates. Max's Shred System Protein supports a reduced carbohydrate intake nutrition plan, not only because it's naturally low in carbs, but because it also includes powerful carb blockers to inhibit the digestion and conversion of carbs to stored fats:

• Garcinia Cambogia – is a tropical fruit that contains a potent carbohydrate regulating compound – Hydroxy Citric Acid or HCA. It’s main action is to block the enzyme Citrate Lyase which your body uses to push excess carbohydrates into fat storage.

• Phaseolamin - is an extract of white kidney beans that inhibits the action of the starch-digesting enzyme Alpha-amylase in your digestive tract - effectively blocking the digestion and absorption of many types of carbohydrates .

• Green Coffee Extract - contains the active ingredient Chlorogenic Acid that inhibits absorption of sugars and starches in your small intestine.

Max's Nitrogen Retention Complex - Max's Shred System Protein is high in specific Amino Acids that help regulate muscle protein synthesis and muscle recovery:

• Branched Chain Amino Acids - (Leucine, Isoleucine and valine) stimulate the mTOR signalling pathway that controls protein synthesis in skeletal muscle, literally turning on muscle growth.. 

• L-Glutamine - is a strong anti catabolic amino acid that helps regulate the breakdown of muscle tissue after hard training. The more glutamine you have in your system, the sooner your body can initiate repair and rebuilding of muscle tissue.

• L-Taurine - is a strong antioxidant amino acid that helps protect muscle against damage from weight training allowing for faster recovery

Max's Vitamin and Mineral Complex - Max's Shred System Protein includes a full complement of vitamins and mineral required to optimise your muscle building and fat burning metabolism. It contains:

Minerals (Potassium Citrate, Tri Calcium Phosphate, Magnesium Oxide, Ferrous Fumarate, Zinc Sulphate, Potassium Iodide, Sodium Selenite, Chromium Chloride). Vitamins (Vitamin C, Nicotinamide, Vitamin B6, Pantothenic Acid, Riboflavin, Thiamin, Vitamin A Acetate, Folic Acid, Vitamin D3, Biotin, Vitamin B12).

Usage: Add 1 scoop to a blender or shaker with 200 – 250 ml of water or milk and mix for 30 seconds until completely dispersed. Take 1 – 2 serves per day in addition to, or to replace regular meals. Dosage may be increased for bigger, heavier trainers, or if more protein is required to meet training needs. (1 scoop = approx. 30g)
