Well, yes I've taken it - but I'm also a rep for SAN. Here's my basic thoughts:

1. The chocolate is very sweet - borderline too sweet for my tastes. Mixed in something else and it cuts the sweetness to a more pleasant chocolate. I haven't tried the berry flavor (yet). I often actually mix Myodrive with Infusion - turns out tasting like a chocolate raspberry drink.

2. SAN is consistently known for high quality standards in our manufacturing. There are a few companies that do produce 'gainers' that I like, and some that I don't like. A track record is a plus - you pay a bit more on the tag for it sometimes, but there's a lot to be said to sticking to reputable companies.

3. Weight gainers, by and large, follow similar patterns in formulations. The really important thing to take away is this: the weight gainer does not make you gain weight. That is dictated by overall diet! If your diet is lacking, then adding a gainer isn't a step in the right direction - with a well thought-out plan and a gainer, that's where the results are. In reality, looking for results from a gainer is a bit like looking for rhinos in your sock drawer - you're looking for the wrong thing :D. Gainers work in that they provide calories in an easy to drink form, that tends not to fill you up as long.


These aren't entirely unbiased thoughts mind you - and I don't pretend that they are. I'll leave this to think about: when I get complaints about gainers (not just ours - I get them often about a variety of products), it's generally speaking not the problem with the product - it is how it is being utilized. Adding a gainer on top of a good diet is good practice; replacing food (what many end up doing) with a gainer is not.
 
Quick carbs in Myodrive?

Im thinking of buying it too, but i have a question:

I plan use it for Post-Workout, so for that moment i need quick carbs, not complex (slow) carbs.

Myodrive has quick carbs? ¿How many grams per dose?

Thanks!
 
I only tried it once (sample) chocolate. It was yummy, The review for it is in the thread on the Sans forum. If you find a good price grab it.

I posted this over in our forum just now - where I saw your question first, but just for anyone else who may be wondering:

"JBerto,

I actually use slow carbs post workout, because I don't buy a lot of the postworkout window ideas. However, Myodrive for 4 scoops contains 50g of carbohydrates (1g fiber), for 6 scoops has 75g of carbohydrates (1.5g fiber). The carbohydrate source is maltodextrin, which is a very fast carbohydrate - so if you're going with the fast protein/carbohydrate route followed up by another PWO meal, then Myodrive and some of the other weight gainer products are great for this."
