ULTIMATE MUSCLE PROTEIN
POSTEED BY: KARENA FAUST
We've been using Beverly International's Ultimate Muscle Protein (UMP) for over 8 years, and there's a reason we've stayed loyal—it’s simply the best protein supplement we've ever had.
From the start, UMP stood out for its incredible taste. Most protein powders either taste overly sweet, chalky, or artificial. UMP, on the other hand, is smooth, delicious, and mixes perfectly every time—no clumps, no weird aftertaste. Whether you're blending it with almond milk, mixing it in oats, or baking it into recipes, it never disappoints. Our personal favorite flavors are chocolate and vanilla.
But taste isn’t everything. What really sets UMP apart is its quality and performance. With a unique blend of fast and slow-digesting proteins, it fuels recovery, supports lean muscle growth, and keeps us full between meals. It’s been a game changer in our training and nutrition routines—especially during fat loss phases.
After trying countless other brands over the years, nothing compares to UMP. It's the only protein powder we recommend to friends and family—because we know it delivers.
If you're serious about results and want a protein that’s clean, consistent, and truly enjoyable to drink, Beverly UMP is hands down the best choice.
To lose weight, calories must be reduced below the maintenance level (the amount needed to sustain your current weight). This causes your body to turn to muscle and stored fat for energy. Unfortunately, muscle is much easier to burn, so that is your body’s preferential choice. This causes a common catch-22 problem for many dieters who focus on just weight loss:
- More muscle gets burned in proportion to fat.
- The lost muscle reduces metabolic demand, lowering caloric output.
- Weight loss then slows or stops.
- The body is now just a smaller version of its fatter self.
- Lowering calories further just repeats the cycle.
- Increasing food intake causes rebound fat gains.
Q What’s the difference between Lean Out and 7-Keto MuscLean?
A Together, they make a perfect team. They both help burn fat, but from two different angles. Lean Out contains lipotropics (ingredients that transport fats) and acts as a “Fat Catalyst” (prompting the body to recognize fat as a fuel). 7-Keto MuscLean contains compounds that encourage optimum thyroid function and lower body fat “set-points” (which tend to creep up with age). This stimulates the metabolism to fire up and burn more calories.
The Diet Dilemma:
Your body always looks for energy in this order:
- First food
- Next muscle
- Last fat
Lean Out and 7-Keto MuscLean to the rescue!
Lean Out
- Protects your lean muscle by directing the body’s caloric draw of energy from stored fats.
- Transports fats from storage through the bloodstream and into the mitochondria of muscle cells to be used as energy.
- Does not contain stimulants.
7-Keto MuscLean
- Increases your overall metabolism, helping you burn more calories.
- Supports optimal thyroid function. Your thyroid is more responsible for metabolism regulation than any other gland in the body, and also controls your bodyweight set-point.
- 7-Keto is the active metabolite of DHEA that influences metabolism. However, it does not have the adverse androgenic side effects associated with DHEA supplementation.
- Studies have shown that a daily dose of 200mg
- caffeine burns 50-100 extra calories. This is approximately the same amount as one 3-capsule serving of 7-Keto MuscLean.
WE NOW HAVE AN ULTRA 40 BEEF LIVER CAPSULE
Every now and then, Roger gets nostalgic for the golden age of bodybuilding—a time when lifters relied on simple fundamentals over today’s complex supplements. Desiccated liver capsules were a staple back then, with legends like Frank Zane and Vince Gironda swearing by their benefits for strength and energy.
So, we’ve just added Ultra 40 Beef Liver in capsule form to the Beverly line. And the best part? A few easy-to-take capsules daily provide a dense nutritional profile, freeing you to focus on your workouts instead of meal prep.
Ultra 40 Beef Liver capsules are not just for serious athletes but also invaluable for women and anyone over 40. As we
age, our nutritional needs change, and Ultra 40 Beef Liver helps maintain energy, muscle mass, and overall well-being. For women dealing with hormonal shifts or anyone fighting age-related muscle loss, these capsules are a game-changer.
So, if you want to elevate your training and embrace the power of liver supplementation, Ultra 40 Beef Liver Capsules are your ultimate solution. Invest in your health, boost your energy, and thrive at any stage of life!
BRIAN "BOOM" LUMBUS
In a world where training in the gym is mostly all about me, my gains, my food, how much I lift, posing, who’s looking at who… this is completely different. Here’s a unique Family that trains together. Brian is investing the value of exercise and health in his children. Starting early is the key!
“Hi there! I'm Brian "Boom" Lumbus, and my life is all about two things: my family and staying fit. As a content creator, I've found a way to combine these passions in a way that really matters to me. My kids—Boom Jr. (6), Bailee Jade (5), Baby J (2), and little Bella Jayne (2 months)—are my greatest joy, and being their dad is my proudest achievement.
For the past five years, I've made it a point to work out every single day, and the gym has become my happy place. It's where I discover peace, strength, and a sense of purpose. But what really lights me up is sharing the love of fitness with my kids. From the moment they were born, I've included them in my workout routine, and it’s something they truly enjoy.
Seeing them grow up with a healthy and active lifestyle has been one of the most rewarding experiences of my life. What makes my content special is that it’s not just about me; it’s about my kids joining in and learning alongside me. People are inspired by our family journey because my kids actually know how to exercise and have fun doing it! I haven’t forced them into it; instead, they’ve embraced it on their own.
My goal is simple: I want to show other parents that getting fit can be a fun activity that brings families together. When we’re at the gym, we’re not just working out; we’re building a strong foundation for their future, creating lasting memories, and enjoying every moment we share.”
Brian began using his BEVERLY supplement stack on March 1, 2025.
His stats were updated on May 12, 2025—fantastic gains for 2 ½ months of hard work and strict supplement use.
