The power of protein Protein is considered by scientists to be a vital nutrient to maintain and develop lean muscle. What is protein? Protein is a vital nutrient that your body needs every day. Carbohydrates provide your body with energy, while protein helps your muscles to recover and repair more quickly after exercise. Foods high in protein include whey, fish, chicken, eggs, dairy produce (such as milk, cheese and yoghurt), beef and soya. What are the benefits of protein? Any form of training will increase your protein requirements. A lack of quality protein will result in loss of muscle tissue and tone, a weaker immune system, slower recovery and a lack of energy. If your goal is to put on muscle and increase strength – or even reduce body fat – while maintaining definition and tone, extra protein from high-quality sources is a must.

“Promax is my number 1 choice and tastes great.” – Toby Rowland (Personal Trainer)

Why you should use protein?
Protein is an essential nutrient for anyone wanting to keep lean, build muscle, or just tone up. If you don’t get enough protein in your diet, then your body breaks down its own muscle (your own source of protein) so it can be converted to energy. Regular exercise increases your need for protein. Failing to get enough protein on a daily basis dramatically reduces your ability to develop muscle, recover fully from training or maintain muscle while dieting.

Promax – Britain’s No.1 selling protein powder
Promax adds extra protein to your diet, which is also vital for building muscle, especially for people who train with weights on a regular basis. Protein is also essential while dieting to reduce the loss of muscle tissue. Promax is the UK’s leading protein powder, thanks to its taste, easy-to-mix formula, and the benefits it offers all gym and sports users.

Why is protein essential?
Weight trainers have known for a long time that protein is vital for anyone wanting to build lean muscle, increase strength and optimize recovery. Scientists agree that protein is one of the most important and essential nutrients for health, growth and well-being, especially when weight training. Even people trying to lose excess fat have experienced the benefits of following a high-protein, low-carb diet.

The finest protein
Promax contains Biomax, a blend of whey protein isolate, hydrolysed whey and whey peptides, which are exclusive to Maximuscle. Biomax provides ultra fast delivery of muscle-building amino acids after every workout, to aid your recovery and support muscle growth. No egg, skimmed milk powder, soya or casein is added as they are known to cause stomach discomfort to some individuals. Promax is the only protein powder to contain the muscle-building environment support formula, Nitrogain: a blend of NAC, Taurine, chromium polynicotinate, and glutamine.

Easy mixing
Promax is one of the only protein drinks that is designed to be mixed with water and still taste great. For best results add to water in a Maximuscle shaker, or stir with a fork in a glass of water, and within 20 seconds, you’ll have a smooth, high quality protein shake. For those who feel casein in milk is a benefit at bedtime, Promax also tastes great and mixes easily with milk for slower digestion – no messy blenders are required.

Easy to drink and good for your body
Promax’s special whey formula contains very low levels of lactose. Lactose is present in milk and many dairy products and is poorly digested in some adults, resulting in gastric problems. Promax is suitable for lactose-intolerant people. Promax also contains special enzymes that help digest protein for easier and faster absorption so you can enjoy the results, without experiencing the side effects that some protein powders cause.

Why buy Promax?

Customer Reviews

A female perspective - Cookies & Cream
I started strength training recently for the first time and discovered I just wasn't getting enough protein from my diet. I decided to give my protein intake a boost and bought this simply because Maximuscle had a female-friendly website that gave me lots of info.

One portion of this (one scoop mixed in with 200ml of water) provides 120 calories, 24g of protein, 2g of carbs and 2g of fat. Taste is important for me and the Cookies and Cream flavour I just can't flaw. It's sweet but not sickly, creamy in taste but not heavy. You can mix with milk but I've not tried it like that as it tastes fine just with water. Apparently you can even mix the powder in with things like yogurt and cereal which I'm going to try aswell.

I started training about 4 months back and although I've been getting stronger, I have been a bit disappointed with the visual results. Having taken the shake for the last two weeks, I have already started seeing some definition - it's not that this is some kind of miracle potion but my diet had VERY limited amounts of protein in it before and my muscles just weren't getting the kind of nutrition they needed to recover! I make sure I always have one of these shakes after training so that I can optimize my workout now!

I also highly recommend getting a shaker if you don't already have one - the Maximuscle Shaker 700ml is brilliant, leak-free and makes the whole measuring & mixing thing a whole lot easier.

Great
This is a great supplement to add extra protein to your diet, if your bulking up, loosing weight, or keeping lean..

Can be taken with food to add extra protein or on it's on.

It has to be used with a healthy diet, you can't rely on it as a meal replacement.

It has 30 servings which will last for a month if taken once a day but can be taken twice a day. The mornings the best time to take it with some cereal or toast, that's when your body needs food the most after being a sleep all that time with no nutrients.

I would also Suggest buying a Maximuscle Shaker 700ml it mixes it up nicely.

An excellent helper in your quest for the body/fitness level you are aiming for
Whether you want to add bulky or lean muscle, and/or lost body fat, the two main things you will need to do are exercise and eat right. Promax isn't a solution in and of itself, but is very useful in getting extra protein into your diet (protein is vital for growing muscle, and repairing it when you are going up a fitness/strength level). There is an argument that as solid protein increases your metabolism by up to 30% after you eat it, if you are aiming to lose weight then you want to avoid protein powders that are easily absorbed. However, I've found that using protein powders in addition to solid protein (meat/eggs etc) is really effective, and helping me to achieve my goals more comfortably than without promax. It isn't for everyone, but I think it is definitely worth trying if you are aiming to get fitter/build muscle/lose body fat.
