- Awesome productReview by Dizi (2 May 2019)
- Since using this product I have been able to pick up weight steadily on a weekly basis. With a solid eating plan and consistent gym routine I managed to gain between 0.25kg - 0.65kg per week. Extremely satisfied with this product as I am a hard gainer. Ensure your calorie intake is above par and macros aligned
- The Best Mass GainerReview by Rayyaan (16 April 2018)
- I'm a hard gainer and gained 5kg from the first pack I bought. The results were insane and I only took half servings. Taste was the best I've had in a Mass Gainer so far. Chocolate flavour. Just make sure you have solid workouts and you'll definitely see the results. Only sad thing is the price:(
- Terrible taste and high priceReview by Daniel (2 November 2017)
- Optimum nutrition is without doubt an excellent brand, but the vanilla Serious Mass is the worst supplement I have ever tasted. Have tried quite a few other mass gainers and there are many that taste much better at a more reasonable price
- The best mass gainer ever. Period!Review by Moodley (15 August 2017)
- This is the best mass gainer ever. You will never get anything better. It works like a gem. In just the first month i started seeing results. It's really worth the money. It is the most pure mass gainer. Optimum nutrition never fails to impress.
- Great product but priceyReview by Big Sid (18 February 2016)
- This supplement costs 600 bucks back in 2013 it's amazing how expensive it is now.I've used this product back in 2013 and gained 6kg.Try it if you can afford it,You won't be sorry
- Best weight gainer everReview by Thulani (2 March 2015)
- This product is worth every cent i gained for Kilo's in one month granted not all clean but cumin there's very little supplement where you can gain clean muscle without fat while bulking.But I Gained 4 kilos in one month and going on my second cycle before cutting but i can definitely see the difference and also guys at the gym are complementing.
- Not worth the cashReview by Roger (14 November 2014)
- This product didn't work, I recommend usn hyperbolic mass for half the price
- Optimum Nutrition Serious MassReview by jamesfranco (13 October 2014)
- This is the best product to gain weight easily.Thanks for the product.
- Excellent ResultsReview by Ricardo (11 January 2014)
- Simply the best weight gainer on the scene. Packed on 5kg in 5 weeks and experienced significant increase in strength and stamina. Powder mix really well and tastes great (chocolate). Scoop is bit big for protein shaker though. Pricey but worth every cent!
- It work for meReview by Artem (20 May 2013)
- I've started my 2nd pack so far. 1st pack experience:my 'one serving' is 1 scoop (160g) blended with 300ml of water. 2 times per day:1st between the meals (around 11 am), 2nd - right after the training. So it's 320g of gainer + 3 standard meals per day. Result is 3kg for 1 month - from 68 to 71 kg (I'm 177cm tall). And I can clearly see that is not only musсles, but it's going natural. You really can't gain only muscles (if we talk about fast gaining).
CHOCOLATE TASTE is GOOD. - great resultsReview by wandi (7 May 2013)
- I used serious mass with ON BCAA and saw great results in two moths of using it. huge gains in mass and strength. the best mass gainer I've taken to date.
- does the jobReview by Mohammed (10 March 2013)
- picked up a lot of fat but gave me some needed meat, from 67 to 72 kg in no time
- Most effective weight gainerReview by Chad (27 February 2013)
- I take this product purely based on its effectiveness! I've tried 5XL (which is great!) and Universal Real Gains recently but none of them work as well as SM! The servings are huge so i split them in to 2 per day and i still feel a bit bloated after taking one. For hard gainers, this is one of the quickest and easiest ways to get good calories in.
The chocolate tastes okay, I wouldn't go for the strawberry again. Very expensive product, but you do get for what you pay for. If you are serious about gaining weight, I suggest this product! - Great Mass GainerReview by Brenton (10 February 2013)
- I'm finished with my second bag, what a great product!
Other than being on the expensive side, everything else is good about this protein. - UltimateReview by SASSN (25 October 2012)
- Only mass gainer for me!!
- ExcellentReview by Zubair (14 September 2012)
- By far the Best weight Gainer around especially for the hard gainer.(myself). Go for the chocolate flavour. Calories is slightly more and use with full cream milk. Little pricey though but overall an excellent product by Optimum. The right diet and we talking 6 kilos in one month.
- Fast Resuts!Review by EN (11 September 2012)
- Extremely effective supplement, could not believe how fast this stuff works! I went from 87kg to 91kg in less than a month without changing my diet and it helped me dramatically increase my strength. Save up some money and buy this supplement, you wont regret it!!!
- Great productReview by Felixgustaf_994 (3 September 2012)
- Good weight gainer. Helped me pack on 5kilos in 2months(not all muscle though) and some fat which is expected. For people who say it didn't work for them its cause you aren't eating enough food to begin with. I hit my calories (3000) then add one shake a day for me to gain weight.
- effectiveReview by Thamzz (27 August 2012)
- this is a great product was sitting on 68kgs am now weighing 72 so picked up a fair amount. only problem is serving size is big and prices is just not worth it but yeah its a good product for those with big bucks
- a bit pricey but the gains are worth itReview by soeren (3 July 2012)
- A bit on the pricey side but the quality of ON just cannot be beaten. Alone the sheer amount of carbs (252g) per serving make it superior to all other brands. The total calories per serving (1250) are also high above the competition. stacked with some good protein this is the best weight gainer i have used to this day.
- GREATReview by Woldz (23 May 2012)
- The name of the product says it all. This product is just amazing, i got some samples for a week, and i gain a 1 kg of muscle and no fat. tastes great, and the price is great at supplementworld.co.za
- Good productReview by Louis (23 May 2012)
- Its expensive for the 18 servings, but it's worth it and it works.
- This REALLY packs on the kilo'sReview by Edwin (15 May 2012)
- I used this product to add some mass before the start of the new year training.
I was surprised by how quickly it added some mass (Im a hardganiner by the way).
The only downside is that it will pack on a lot of unwanted fat as well.
I blended it with bananas and some peanut butter. Got me a nice 3.5 kg's in 1 month (however this was not lean muscle mass). - Great ProductReview by Z (29 March 2012)
- I began weighing in at 54, by the end of the month I weighed in at 58. A good 4kgs of mass.Two shakes a day.Half in the morning and half in the evening.. Scoops are huge though. Taste is ok.Difficult to mix but works really well.
On my second bag. Will post Shortly. - SM is a brilliant product, although the taste is not so brilliantReview by Vasili (19 February 2012)
- Im a hard gainer. I am 162cm tall, but I only weigh 47kg. I bought SM and it works like a bomb! the taste is not good at all, but it is the best product for anyone that is a hard gainer
- serious fat massReview by khathu (14 February 2012)
- my friend got me to buy it. I should have looked at his gains before i started chugging down the worst tasting vanilla shake ever,adding peanut butter makes it better other wise it tastes like expired stuff.it got me real fat.it would be ideal for a sumo wrestler.
- Amazing!Review by Nicko (26 August 2011)
- I weighed 74 Kg's and when i first took it, it was too much for me to handle to I took one scoop after gym and one before i went to sleep. After 4 weeks I am now weighing 81 Kg's and it has helped me build mass
- Great stuffReview by Salie (4 July 2011)
- The first product I have used that actually works good for the true hard gainer,and I have tried everything available on our market!
great taste as well.
Its expensive for the 18 servings, but it's worth every penny - great results....Review by dean (10 April 2011)

- I'm buying my second one now, i struggle to maintain weight as my metabolism is stupidly fast, but with this product i maintained my weight and picked up bit my bit! Really recommend this for hard gainers
- loving it !Review by johann (8 March 2011)
- When I'm in my off season there is no other way for me to pack on nice quality mass as with Optimum Serious Mass. It taste fabulous and use it twice a day to give me the result I want.
It never make me feel uncomfortable like some other mass gainers and it is as good as a Mac Donald shake when it comes to taste. TRY it, you will love it.
- Getting SeriousReview by The Gym Master (25 February 2011)
- By far the worst tasting shake on the market. Vanilla,Strawberry and Chocolate is quite horrible! Banana is the way to go even if your not the monkeyman munching bananas. Trust me its worth it! The result of this product is awesome! 7kg in 1.5months! Have gained a bit of fat but it's totally worth getting serious!!!
- great product!Review by justin (25 February 2011)

- I would say this product is one of the best mass gainers out there. With the right training program you will definitely pick up size...just from a bag of this i picked up a good 3kg which has stayed there. Definitely worth the money....unlike other brands
- Super!Review by Jon Lee (8 July 2010)
- This stuff's great, and tastes even better. Mix it with water instead of milk, the taste is much better and it lasts for ages and works well for quick gains.
- ExpensiveReview by Margaret (2 July 2010)
- I've just ordered this from SW now. All the ingredients seem great, but the price is just a bit too high! R680 is a hell of a lot to last you only 16 days. If the price stayed at R580, it would be fine! Anyways, will let you know how it works for me!
- HeavyReview by Db (3 June 2010)
- Great for hard gainers.
Just becareful of not doing enough cardio exercise while using this product as it has a lot of carbs and calories..
Great product and great tasting. Use this product to get over that plateau.
- Good product - nice strength gainsReview by Imran (15 May 2010)
- I have been using this product now for the last month - i consider myself a hard gainer but this stuff just packs on the slabs ...the banana flavour tastes exactly like chappies bubblegum banana flavour...
ideal to supplement ur post workout routine - remember with great power comes great responsibilityReview by ozzie (8 May 2010)
- great product but you have to train while using to see good results. Great taste, easy mixing. best for gaining mass
- CrazzyReview by Bexxx (6 May 2010)
- This is the best weight gainer I've ever been on, there nothing else like it on the market today!
- Great if your on the go!Review by Marianna (1 May 2010)
- Being a university student i find this is great to have and sip on during class when i cant eat whole meals. Its so convenient if you decide to go out and do something during the day where you wont be able to eat for a while, just make a shake and take it with you. Should definitely not replace whole food but rather be used when one cannot eat a meal for a while. Great product for sure!
- GREAT PRODUCT!Review by Neemz (27 April 2010)
- Great product for the ones that finds it hard to gain mass, worked great for me..will definitely recommend it to any1 finding it hard to bulk up!
