Thread: Need a weightgainer...please help

Count your calories. If you overeat in one meal, and miss a meal afterwards or make it small because you are 'stuffed' then you defeat the purpose of trying to add weight.

A weight gainer is typically a minute amount of protein, and hundreds of calories of maltodextrin sugar. Nothing magical there, a disgustingly fattening insulin surge (unless somehow quite luckily your glycogen stores are stripped bare) and a tiny bit of protein. Nothing you couldn't get in food if you counted your calories.

If you are set on it, add a little fiber.

a good weight gainer is joe weider mega mass 4000. i put on some decent size with that a few months back

It is no secret that nutrition companies view their weight gain formulas as simply a cheap way of supplying protein and calories. Lacking in any technology, most are simply crammed with sugars, saturated fat and indigestible protein. Digestive disorders, energy crashes, nausea, loss of appetite and increases in bdy fat are the usual accompaniments. Not bad for a product that was supposed to help you gain muscular bodyweight!

Here at CNP we believe that a serious problem needs a serious solution. We have taken exactly the same scietific approach that we apply to the development of any of our products. We looked at the main reasons why hard gainers struggle for every ounce of muscle.

* Fast metabolic rate, requiring additional quality calories.

*Using products that contain only one source of protein. All the aminos enter the bloodstream at the same time and most are oxidized for energy or converted to urea or ammonia.

* Digestive problems, caused by poor quality supplements or those not suitable for people with sensitive digestion.

* Being in an almost permanent state of catabolism. Over training, through either calorific defect or unrealistic training workload leads to muscle loss and needs to be addressed by adjustment of training, increased calories and the use of anti-catabolic proteins. Whey protein is not anti-catabolic.

Pro-Mass is the only scientifically structured approach to lean tissue gain. Nothing is included merely to supply calories. Applying the principles of "Fast and Slow Proteins", we have blended undenatured, filtrated whey with undenatured micellar casein, supplying 35 grams of anti-catabolic protein (micellar casein is the only protein proven to be anti-catabolic). Carbohydrates are supplied in the form of our unique blend of 63% higher saccharides (complex) and 7% monosaccharides (simple). This is done to avert constant insulin fluctuatuions (leading to increased bodyfat) and to supply a continuous supply of energy without "sugar crashes" for those with a fast metabolism. The small amount of fat present, 4.87 grams per serving, comes in the form of unsaturated MCT''s.

Low in lactose and easily digested, every serving supplies around 400 calories of the best technology that nutritional food science can address this issue with.

This is the new standard by which all weight gain formulas will be judged.

lol, u got to be kidding

n-large sucks too!

get some pro-mass by CNP, better yet mix some oats with whey for a supercharged complex carb weight gainer that kicks ass!

i make my own out of activated barley, caseinate and flax only thing is it taste like shit

I'm definitley pretty interested in Pro-Mass. I've only heard good things about it, but it seems way too expensive for me and I guess it isn't sold in the USA cuz I've only been finding it on UK sites. If I did invest in the 4.5 kg for $80 about how many servings are in it?
