Does this give anyone else the shits like nobody’s business? I think it’s all that liquid fiber hitting me. It was the same with the old formula too.
I already have the D-aspartic acid shits, so maybe I can time them together haha.
Would this product be appropriate to use to replace breakfast when rushed for time? Should anything else be added to it for a replacement breakfast?

Metabolic Drive Muscle Growth Formula works well when you’re unable to get a solid meal.
Nothing need be added unless you want additional calories, in which case you can mix with milk and/or blend in fruit, peanut butter, or anything else.
Could this product be used pre-workout along with FINiBARs? I’m trying to figure out the most economical way to get in 100 -125 “partioning” carbs pre-workout along with protein. Using SWF or another FINiBAR would be better, I realize, but it would also mean having to use another protein source. Any thoughts?
Thanks!

It would be fine if you wanted to have it before working out. Keep in mind though that you wouldn’t want to blunt all the positive effects from your FINiBAR by having it at the same time as your shake. I’d try to separate the two by having your Metabolic Drive Muscle Growth Formula first (maybe this could be your breakfast), allow it to digest for an hour or so, and then have your peri-workout nutrition (i.e. your FINiBAR).
That’s the way we tend to do it at my house and it works well for us.
The Anaconda Protocol would be the best way to go, but your plan is just fine.
Hope that helps!
This is good sh*t. Really.
I had ALOT of GI issues with the previous version of Metabolic Drive Complete…but have NO issues with this version. The chocolate is very smooth, and tasty. I get NO carb crash feel after drinking this unlike the other version or any other “meal replacements” with the standard maltodextrin carb sources. AND, this is indeed quite filling.
I had recently thought of attacking the slow and fast protein issue (i.e. I wanted a slow and fast protein combo supplement, not just a fast OR slow option) of combining Metabolic Drive Low-Carb with MAG-10…but decided against it after I experienced the taste. This supplement instead, satisfies exactly what I was looking for, and I believe will achieve the same goals.
I’ve always liked the FINiBARs, now finally there is something that I can drink that contains those most excellent carb sources that won’t spike my insulin so damn high.
My main nutritional supplement repertoire will now mostly be Metabolic Drive Muscle Growth and MAG-10…I probably won’t be using the Metabolic Drive Low-Carb as much as I had.
I started using this product a few months ago in the morning with raw milk, and almond or peanut butter, and have been extremely happy with it. As buffd samurai mentioned…had no bloat, gas, insulin spikes and subsequent crashes, etc. What really impressed me about this product was the prebiotics that are included with it. If you read my digestion article on this site, you know I am a digestion freak. The chocolate taste, outta this world. This is a product I will be suing for a loooong time.

Damn, I thought I could hold out on this product for a while longer until John Meadows recommended it!

Just ordered 3 tubs myself bud!
fkn John Meadows making me order more Biotest supplements.
Don’t get me wrong, I freaking love Metabolic Drive Muscle Growth and how full/smooth it makes my gut feel, I’m just not sure if I need the extra carbs…
Guys, I just want you to know to that I would never recommend something that I wasn’t taking and loving…not my style…I really do love the Metabolic Drive protein…

Is this new formula mainly for mass or works just like the lo-carb version?
I havent tried it yet, but will be ordering soon, to use post workout istead of low carb, and if Indigo 3G is in my future (keeping fingers crossed), I will probably use it twice a day.
Anyone have any reports back on using this product for a while?

It’s delicious and convenient.
Great Thanks,
Have some arriving tomorrow, along with some other products. I actually plan on using this not just as an in between meal / meal shake but also post work out possibly spiked with some orange juice and/or extra whey depending on how strenuous the work out. I use the gym at work so I’m not always pounding out the toughest, roughest work outs but 3 meals a day won’t cut it and this looks pretty good. I will try to post to the thread to beef it up.
