MAX'S LEAN PROTEIN BLEND

MAX'S Shred System combines fast and medium acting Whey Proteins with slower acting Caseins to keep your 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. But the added benefit 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 a specific combination of fast, medium and slow dairy proteins to keep you growing longer plus the slower digesting Caseins keep you feeling satisfied to make calorie restriction easier.

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 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 and theophylline. 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 coveted lean and shredded look know that it's not just about fat intake, but also about manipulating dietary carbohydrates. MAX'S SHRED System 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.

How To Take Shred System

Take 1 - 2 Servers Per Day

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)

Who Should Take Shred System

MAX’S SHRED System is recommended for trainers whose goal is to strip fat and build a lean and shredded physique. It is also ideal for competition bodybuilders who are dieting to achieve low body fat levels while retaining maximum lean muscle mass.

Get Ripped with a Low Carb Diet

If you’re relatively new to training, muscle gain and fat loss, then you may never have tried to seriously diet before to get lean and ripped. Unless you are lucky and have great genetics, the reality is that getting in great shape with good muscle definition and a six pack isn’t easy.

There are lots of different diet fads you can try, but the diet that has stood the test of time, and has the best scientific support is a Low Carb Diet.

This approach basically relies on high protein, moderate fat, and quite low carbohydrates – a regime that seems to contradict many nutritionist’s ideal balanced diet. However you can eat much more variety – and much more food than the traditional low fat approach. This type of diet, popularised by Dr Robert Atkins in the 1970’s, and now often referred to as a keto style diet is based on the premise that eating low carb forces your body to become much better and burning fat for fuel.

The Major Benefits of the Low Carb Diet

Diets high in sugar and refined carbohydrates like bread, pasta, cereal, and other mainly "low-fat" processed foods increase your body's production of insulin. When insulin is at high levels, the food you eat can get readily converted into body fat, in the form of triglycerides (to top it off, high triglyceride levels in the body are one of the greatest risk factors for heart disease). Even worse, high carbohydrate meals tend to leave you less satisfied than those that contain adequate fat and protein levels; so you eat more and get hungrier sooner. If you find this hard to believe, think about how you can eat a big bowl of cereal or oats for breakfast and still be really hungry by 10.30am! So what should you do? To get off the insulin generating roller coaster start by cutting down on your carbohydrate consumption, especially the worst offenders: sugar, white flour and other refined carbohydrate products. What can you expect from this? Four wonderful results:

You'll start to burn fat for energy: When carbohydrates are your body's primary energy source, you'll rarely use your secondary energy source, you own body fat, for energy unless you restrict carbohydrate consumption. If you permanently change your eating habit, this offers a lifetime of body fat burning.
You won't feel hungry in between meals: The biggest battle that most trainers face with cutting up is the constant obsession with food as you are never really satisfied. Again, much of this is caused by blood sugar fluctuations that are aggravated by carbohydrate consumption (especially the refined kind). By cutting the carbs, you'll maintain a more even blood sugar level throughout the day. No more false hunger pains or mid-afternoon brain drains.
Your overall health will improve and you'll feel better: Many of the toxins you take into your body are stored in your fat cells. By getting your body to burn stored fat, you allow it to clean itself out. Stable blood sugar also means better hormone regulation – including anabolic hormones. Fatigue, irritability, depression, headaches, and even many forms of joint and muscular pain simply go away. Furthermore, you should see a significant improvement in your blood profile, (including cholesterol and blood pressure levels). You will be able to train harder, recover faster and feel better – all the time.
You will retain muscle mass: Usually, when you diet down to lose body fat on a low-fat diet, you also lose a significant amount of hard-earned muscle. The low carb approach uses mostly fat for energy, as this is abundant. And because protein is kept high, it is not only possible to maintain muscle but to actually build muscle, virtually impossible on a low-fat diet.

Some Key Information about Sugar

Sugar is an Anti-nutrient! It contains no vitamins. No minerals. No protein. Nothing of any nutritional value. It is 100% carbohydrate. High levels of sugar in your blood are bad. When you consume sugar your body is thrown into chaos. It works to quickly clear sugar into storage and restore normal blood sugar levels. Sugar in almost all forms (sucrose, glucose, and fructose) makes you fat. Some sugar can be stored away in muscles for energy, but most is converted into fat and stored in fat cells around your body. Highly processed carbs like white flour is its second cousin—almost as bad. When you partner the two together— flour and sugar—it spells disaster for anyone trying to maintain a healthy body, let alone build muscle and lose fat. If they are consumed on a regular basis, the body is in a constant state fat gain and nutritional deficiency.

How to Eat on a Low Carb Diet

Here are some basic guidelines about what to eat and what to avoid:

Use a diet tracking app (like My Fitness Pal) to record your food intake and monitor carb, fat and protein levels
Aim to eat no more than 50 grams of Carbohydrates Daily
You should eat up to 3 cups of salad vegetables or 3 cups of cooked vegetables
You should eat whenever you are hungry until you basically feel satisfied (don’t pig out though!)
This diet consists of quality protein foods, pure fats (butter, olive oil, canola oil, vegetable oil, mayonnaise etc...) and any combinations of proteins & fats.
You can eat a reasonable amount of fat – up to 40% of your calories, what you must limit are CARBOHYDRATES.
You may drink water, coffee (decaf), tea, diet drinks (occasionally). Any Drink with 0 carbs is allowed. NOTE: On a high protein diet it is advisable to drink 3 – 4 litres of water a day.
Train normally, you should still have plenty of energy after your body gets accustomed to this diet after a few days
DOING ALL THIS WILL MOST LIKELY ENSURE A FAST FAT LOSS

Meal Frequency

Conventional bodybuilding experience recommends spreading your food intake across 6 smaller meals each day. This means you need to determine your daily protein, fat and carbs requirements and put together a daily plan that spreads your intake of these nutrients.

Some newer diet approaches have recently emerged that seem to offer promise in helping trainers shed bodyweight. One approach we like is known as Time Restricted Eating (also known as intermittent fasting). This approach limits your daily food intake to roughly 8 hours per day. The other 16 hours are spent fasting. You still eat the same amount of food, you just compress the time during your day when you eat. This approach has been shown to accelerate fat loss and also improve many other health and fitness markers. For more on this diet Click Here.
