I just got ultra 40 and mass. I was wondering how many pills I should take a day. The bottle says at least 4 pills a day with a meal. Do I have to take that much everyday? Even the days I dont workout to see results?
most of us take at least 4 per meal. considering most of us are taking in at least 5 meals a day, you're looking at 20 of each daily. I've been as high as 6 Mass per meal and 10 Ultra 40. The pills together will greatly improve the amino acid profile of your meals for better absorption and utilization of the protein.

Danny welcome to the board! It will take you some time to get used to swallowing so many tablets - but yes it is very much worth it. Ater while it becomes second nature. You will be quite satisfied with the results you get from following a quality nutrional plan.
For the last year or so (thanks fitdoc) I have mostly been chewing my Ultra 40's. They chew up easily and don't taste bad (to me ) That results in fewer pills to swallow, although I'm still consuming them. I wish that the Mass were chewable - but they are not and they don't taste very good if you ever do try to crunch on one.
Hardly a week goes by where I don't get someone in the gym saying something like "Are you actually going to take all those during your workout?" Yep. When I lift I'll toss 12 Mass, four Ultra 40's, two lean outs, two antioxidents and a Partridge in a pear tree) into a zip lock baggie. I walk around with my tasty Glutamine Select and BCAA drink and toss down a few tablets between sets. (Picture Homer Simpson - ummmm...goood...)

I was several days pre-contest, looking a little gaunt and drawn, and I had just started the ProTan ritual so was looking a bit yellow. The boss stuck his head in as I was gobbling down the morning pills, Vitamin pack 9 pills, 4 Mass, 4 Ultra, 3 EFA's, etc Plus I had the zip lock bag with the other 60 pills in it. The boss asked how I was feeling and later asked my supervisor if I had some sort of disease. LOL the comedy material that we can find in all of this.
