Scitec Jumbo Professional


 

Overview
Here’s what Scitec have to say:

In JUMBO PROFESSIONAL we shifted the ratio towards a higher protein percentage. While providing 52 grams of high-quality protein (more than JUMBO), the serving size is smaller: 162 grams. This obviously means that the carbohydrate and caloric yield of the formula is lower, because it’s unnecessary to take in higher amounts for those people that fall under the specific body and activity types we had in mind when designing this product.

JUMBO PROFESSIONAL is designed with whey protein. Dietary proteins are the source of nitrogen and indispensable amino acids, which the body requires for tissue growth and maintenance. Therefore, JUMBO PROFESSIONAL contributes to the growth and maintenance of muscle mass.

JUMBO PROFESSIONAL still features the “6-CARB” carbohydrate blend that includes oat flour, Palatinose and native waxy maize food starch.

The "JUMBO" extra ingredient matrix has been improved and increased in dosage! Each serving of JUMBO PROFESSIONAL provides a 6,600 mg dose of our proprietary “CREA-BOMB multi-component creatine matrix” (6 types of Creatines)! At least a 3 g daily dose of Creatine is scientifically proven to increase performance in successive burst of short-term, high intensity exercise like weight training and interval cardio (so a half-serving already provides this benefit).

We also added extra amino acids on top of the amounts coming from proteins, including essential ones.
In the “Micronutrient Support complex” you’ll find Magnesium and Vitamin C in amounts that contribute to normal protein synthesis, to a reduction of tiredness and fatigue, to normal functioning of the nervous system (neurotransmission and muscle contraction including heart muscle), to the normal function of the immune system, to normal energy-yielding metabolism, to electrolyte balance, to normal collagen formation for the normal function of cartilage and blood vessels, to the protection of cells from oxidative stress, to the maintenance of normal bones and teeth, and have a role in the process of cell division.

So after measuring out a rather annoying 3.3 scoops you get a fantastic protein shake full of what your body needs. 52g of protein is immense and along with 80g of carbs made up of both fast acting sugars and slower digesting carbs you’ll be kept full and your muscles will be pumped.
Along with the basic protein and carbs mixture you get Scitec’s Crea-Bomb (a great product in its own right) included, BCAA’s, Glutamine and everything else you could possibly need making this a monstrous all-in-one.

Taste
I had the chocolate flavour and to be honest I wasn’t overly keen on it. It had some mixing issues always leaving just a little bit of grit at the bottom of a shaker. With a blender it was fine though.

Side Effects
None

Price
£25.49 for a 1.62kg tub with 10 servings in.

Results
This a mass gainer so it is only here to serve one purpose to add size. You’ll be pleased to know that it does that and so much more. This is more than your standard gainer.

Let’s get the basics out the way. Jumbo Pro will assist you in adding size to your frame if you are on a bulking diet and train for size. 52g of protein combined with that sugar spike is more than enough to kick your muscles into gear when you take a serving post workout. I would recommend taking this post workout as the fast acting carbs and protein mix will set to work immediately repairing and growing your muscles. Which brings me onto point 2. Jumbo Pro is excellent as a recovery drink, you won’t become a victim to DOMS when you’re on this. Your pumps will last for longer and your muscles will have that rock hard full look.

The only downside is the price, all gainers are expensive though, Jumbo Pro more or less in line with most other gainers on the market.

All the extras included just serve to amplify your results making this a no brainer. If you are bulking then you need give Jumbo Pro a try. You won’t be disappointed.  9.5/10
