Ingredients

MusclePharm Arnold Iron Mass is a mass gainer designed to deliver high levels of macronutrients without stimulants or sugar.

It uses only real ingredients, no unnatural compounds or stimulant blends. With 485 calories, 34 carbohydrates, and 40 grams of protein, MusclePharm Arnold Iron Mass delivers energy for extended workouts and protein for maximum muscle growth. Amino acids bolster the ingredients by increasing muscle capability and potential.[1]

Carbohydrates are the foundation for energy, supporting long workouts and allowing the body to regenerate muscle. MusclePharm Arnold Iron Mass contains natural sources of long-chain carbohydrates in the form of sweet potato powder[2] and barley starch. These plants give large amounts of carbs with no added sugar or fat. Because there are no stimulants or sugar, there is no resulting crash. These carbohydrates are supported by a healthy fat matrix to improve performance: sunflower oil, whipped cream powder, and medium-chain triglycerides from coconut.

With 40 grams of protein, more than most protein powders, Arnold Iron Mass delivers raw materials needed for muscle growth and strength. The protein comes from hydrolyzed beef protein and lactoferrin. Because it’s hydrolyzed, the protein is absorbed easily, giving hours of amino acid release for muscle growth. The protein blend is bolstered by all three branched-chain amino acids in a 3:1:2 ratio. BCAAs form 35% of material necessary for muscle tissue synthesis[3], and the ratio is optimized for maximum effect.

The large dose of protein and natural carbohydrates is taken to the next level with the addition of creatine monohydrate.

This pure creatine provides additional, immediate ATP to muscles during contractions, increasing stamina and power. Muscles are able to work longer and stronger with creatine, and supplementation reduces post-workout fatigue. This allows the body to handle the large amounts of protein and carbohydrates, utilizing them to their fullest extent.

Protease and other ingredients optimize digestion, allowing the body to take handle the large amounts of protein and carbs without problems. They improve metabolism, specifically increasing protein breakdown and uptake.

Review1
Got given a few 7 serve bag samples of the chocolate malt flavour. I generally don’t use mass gainers but this one was quite special I’d say. Perfect ratios of fats, carbs & protein. I normally use mass gainers as more of a meal replacement but don’t like to use it too often due to them having too much carbs, but this one is different. Tastes great, mixes ok, also like the fact that it’s beef protein, a good change from all the whey, milk, casein & egg proteins. My friends use it to make protein/bliss balls and they taste amazing!!

Bottomline

While Arnold MASS carries the name of the most iconic bodybuilder in history, it also has it flaws. Having said that, it lags behind other protein supplements with superior quality (grass-fed, organic, sweetened with stevia, etc.).

Nonetheless, Arnold IRON WHEY Protein gets good ratings here as a solid protein shake formula.
