Best Overall Weight Gainer?

[mattrix88]

thanks for the post, made some sense in why to choose THAT product, but yeah im realizing that there are to many of them, so i would have to narrow it down then start trieng them out.

cookies and cream ha? that could work lol

right now my protien is nitro tech vanilla its not bad with milk+bananna..but of course i would stop taking that once i order one of the above.

but good tasting is a must. thanks for the info.

is this the correct product? i dont see cookies and cream

http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/mhp/mass.html

ya bud, that's the one, and ya, i just double checked it, it is cookies and cream, but i got a good deal on it at GNC (ya i know...). not sure why they don't have cookies and cream tho, but i have a buddy that said the fudge brownie is good ****e!

btw, that 5lb price is a great price at the BB.com store. you better hop on that train...

[Fsambuka]

Just got ON Serious Mass through the door two sec's ago, bag is HUGE!! Tastes great, just like a thick milkshake, instantly mixed with milk. Good buy, would buy again.

When does everyone take their weight gainers?

[j2thecup]

i just got mass xxx from gnc 13 lb tub..i take 1st half in morning and 2nd half post wo and ive gained 3 lb over the past 2 weeks..

[keys_10]

Cool thanks, looking at met rx size up, anyone used this?

[Derly]

When does everyone take their weight gainers?
Morning, between meals, before bed...

I usually only take half servings at a time though, mixed with milk, and a scoop of peanut butter. Makes it taste a lot better, adds some healthier calories and carbs.

Also lately I haven't had some actual whey, so I've been using my weight gainer as a PWO.

[Pure_Facts]

I've been a protein guy and just drinking shakes and eating alot of food has helped me put on weight what would be a good weight gainer if I'm just looking for carbs,protein,calories? no creatine/fillers and all that crap

[kgochenour]

i just got mass xxx from gnc 13 lb tub..i take 1st half in morning and 2nd half post wo and ive gained 3 lb over the past 2 weeks..

I've done the same, 3 lbs in 2 weeks, but at the price they charge (even with gold card, bogo 50%, etc), I am actively looking for something along the same lines a bit cheaper here. I like that mixed with milk its ~1000 cal and 50 g protein.

Suggestions?

Edit: I see CytoGains is quite popular in this thread, but I'm on CL Green Mag, so I'd prefer to look for a Mass Gainer without creatine in it.

[SkinnySince88]

Most weight gainers say they only come with like 15 servings. Is a serving 1 day or 1 shake? Since your supposed to have 2 shakes a day How much of this should I buy and how long should I take it?

A serving is only 1 shake unfortunatly. Thats what make weight gainer's expensive, because 4 scoops everyday only lasts a couple weeks in some cases. Making your own would probably be the cheapest way. 10 lb buckets would probably be the best choice to buy, as a 5 lber wont last that long at all, and as far as how much you should take it, depends on what your plan's are as far as weight gaining.. Some take 1 shake a day after a workout, others take one in the morning and one at night..

Most of them can be made to last longer, if you take half servings, with milk, and add some PB and/or Oats.

Muscle Juice seems to be the cheapest for 18 servings, and it works well if you do the 1/2 serving trick I mention. However, be warned it has lots of sugar, so if you're prone to get fat, cardio cardio cardio.

Muscle Juice also has 150 mg of Cholesterol per serving, which is what is holding me back from trying it.

Hi there! I'm buddika from sri lanka. normally i'm a hard gainer and it's so difficult to pack some muscles to me specially with our poor meals. so i decided to have a weight gainer.

I have used so many supplements so far and some of them worked and some never. i wanted to increase my weight as i was weight 84Kgs.

one of my guys in there recommended Universal Gain Fast 3100. so i bought a 10Lb bucket and read the entire label before using it.

there are 3 ways to use it at your choice. so i picked the Get Big Quick Formula method. it's a specialized shake and we have to prepare it by adding extra Milk, 2 banana, 1 Yogurt, 3 Eggs, 2 tbsp Honey, Berry and 2 tbsp malted milk powders. have to blend all these together with the Gain Fast powder and finally you will get a very thick shake. about 1.3 Litre shake.

they say to consume it slowly and this will be enough for 1 1/2 days. about 200ml's per time.

so i followed their instructions very well and guess what happened after only within 10 days??????? amazingly i gained 6 Kgs and now I'm weighing 92Kgs thanks to Universal Gain Fast 3100.

actually i couldn't believe i'm increasing my weight and still it's going on. this is the best weight gainer i have used and i can recommend this to any person who is looking to gain weight in a very short time.

Thanks Universal!

6kg in 10 days? Most will be water weight from drinking so much fluid. Not sure if this shake has creatine, but if it does, it will also increase your water weight.

Also, when using these things, be wary of any fat gain you incur. You don't want to become a fatass.

And as for my choice of gainer, cytogainer chocolate mint seems to be good, but it's expensive.

it's an old-school gainer, I know it... and it doesn't have creatine in it

[caboosegoboom]

cut the servings and add your own stuff, oats, yogurt
makes the tub last longer

Mixing with milk helps the most. And I've found a nice scoop of peanut butter still works in a shaker, if you have the right amount of fluid. Not too much not too little. And shake it for longer.

I bought the cytogainer chocolate mint one and it has worked out the best out of all the others -- I was surprised at how well it tasted, as well. One of the finer tasting ones as well. Is up there in price, though, as you mentioned. Worth the buy, however.

I think i got some muscles by using that Gain Fast. but little bit fat also. now i want to get ripped. any idea about those fat loss combos available at bb.com?!!. because I'm going to order this lipo6x, twinlab chromium picolinate and primaforce maxcla. Will this work?

[zeebodybuilder]

The reason why MHP UP YOUR MASS is my favorite weight gainer is because of the quality and type of the carbs used in it. it has plenty of calories and protein, but it's the carbs in this one that make the difference. Most weight gainers have crappy maltodextrin and other types of simple carbs that digest too quickly and go straight to your gut, but UP YOUR MASS uses complex carbs in the form of oats, barley and wheat that stay in your system longer and digest more slowly, and more importantly, do not add inches to your waistline. So the weight you put on is good weight, not bad weight.

Hi I have ordred 1 tub and will be at my address soon. I have some questions below if you could please help. It would be very appreciated and im sure this will help many coming readers on this forum about the same Product.

Did you take this with water or milk?

Where you taking the full servinf 4 scoops or half the serving?

Also it says you can pack on 16lbs in 5 weeks thats like 5 tubs which will cost a bomb, Did you gain weight/Size?

Also the ingredient profile compared to other gainers is quite low like 46 grams protein and 58 carbs others have a high amount so you still say it puts weight on you?

Also 4 scoops with ater is only 510 calories?

I read somewhere it is better to take this with water then milk as somtimes the gainer will not digest properly with milk? What do you say? what were your experiences?

Thanks

My Gainer History

ON Pro Complex Gainer - 8/10. Good profile, decent taste, quality cals.
UN Muscle Juice - 7/10. Tons of sugar but tasted good and dirt cheap.
Homemade - 10/10 Cheapest per serving with best profile

Homemade = 2 Scoops Whey, ~100g ground oats, 2 spoonfuls pb, spoonful olive oil, 16-20oz milk. (Add choc syrup, ice cream, vanilla extract as desired.)

what does everyone think of the GNC brand Mass XXX ? Anyone try it ?

I've tried it. Very sweet...I usually wanted to puke afterwards.


Stick with True Mass by BSN. I've tried several weight gainers, and True Mass is hands down the best one I've tried. Great taste, easy to mix (I just stir it into 12 oz of soy milk), easy to drink, massive amounts of crucial nutrients. I've gained almost 20 lbs on true mass (plus other supplements) and have kept my body fat below 5% the whole time.

[liftinkid]

ON Serious Mass

So far(have not tried Cyto yet), it has the best taste. Mixes well, even in a shaker(i split it 1 serving but 2 shakes). And with the 1250 cal. It makes a good 625cal twice a day meal replacement if needed.

One weightgainer that i have tried that i really like is cytogainer. it has a good amount of calories with low amount of suger. it tastes great and mixes well with just a shaker cup.

I was planning on using true mass myself in another month or so when I try to add weight after my season. Since you've had experience with it maybe you could answer a couple questions I have...

what flavor(s) did you try? favorite?
And how many tubs did it take you to gain the 20lbs?
Finally, what else were you taking while on it?

thanks ahead

This guy knows what he is talking about, true mass is by far the best weight gainer I have ever used. I took cytogainer but it made me feel bloated during workouts. I have gained 10 lbs in 2 months using true mass.

I like what I'm hearing, but over that 2 month period how many tubs did you go through? Also, how many servings did you take per day?

[mattthewsmith]

I like what I'm hearing, but over that 2 month period how many tubs did you go through? Also, how many servings did you take per day?

I went through almost 3 tubs, And I would take 2 servings on non workout days one 2 hours after breakfast and one before bed, and 3 on workout days 1 before working out 1 after and one before bed. The chocolate and vanilla are the only two that I used and they both taste great.

[Simplify]

I took 1 tub per month. I just supplemented my meals with it, doing 1 or 2 servings a day. Nothing crazy.

[TheAssassin]

just wondering what people thought about quick mass????
think its worth buying or at least trying

[Simplify]

Wanna know what really works well. It helped me gained 20 lbs last month. Its called food.

Yeah, that's what it comes down to. But sometimes people like me 1.) can't afford to buy the 6 meals a day to get a good 3 to 4 thousand calories or 2.) don't have the stomach to handle all the food it takes to keep those caloric numbers up.

Something like True Mass provides a good, solid meal of 900 calories and 50 grams of good protein for 2 bucks a serving. Can't beat that. Plus, being in liquid form, it metabolizes faster than solid food, and I'm ready for more sooner.

[ezrollin]

I think I'm gonna stop using gainers except Post WO

[jwallace1985]

Soo...then most supplements would be pointless right? Considering almost all of them are also found in foods. From now on in between meals to get more creatine/protein ill just have a t-bone. Your a lifesaver, thanks!!

i take true mass and i like it
im on my 2nd 5lb tub
the cookies and cream was my 1st amd it was good the first couple times then it got nsaty
i am takiung chocolate and half way done witht the tub and it is really good.
i tried gnc gold2200 and it got me bloated

[Splitting_Heads]

I just finished a tub of Serious Mass and I like it a lot, especially for the price. I had used CytoGainer before and it upset my stomach like crazy. I didn't have this problem with Serious Mass which is a huge plus. I like that I could get all the calories/nutrients I needed and not be in the bathroom all day (defeating the initial purpose).

[Logangarrett]

true mass is good

but i would say mutant mass by pvl.. it worked for me

[Mich995aell_h]

I'm lactose intolerant, the only weight gainer that i know of that doesn't have any lactose in it is CytoGainer, dose anyone know of any other products that dose not have lactose?

[aaronmoneymaker]

my 2 cents would have to go for Muscle Juice 2544, great amount of calories and protein for packin on the poundage, i limit my sugar intake so i have 3 shakes a day and try not to eat a lot of things with sugar in them.

[kgochenour]

Mass XXX is great. I've put on 7 lbs in about three weeks, and the taste is great (using milk or water, whichever you prefer).

Muscle Juice for me was disgusting and had so much sugar, I couldnt finish all of it. I still have most the tub just sitting there. Glad it was cheap

[Splitting_Heads]

I'm lactose intolerant, the only weight gainer that i know of that doesn't have any lactose in it is CytoGainer, dose anyone know of any other products that dose not have lactose?

just FYI, cytogainer is 98% lactose free, so not entirely. not sure if that makes a difference for you, but just in case it does, there you go.

muscle milk by cytosport is 100% lactose free, but not exactly a gainer. pretty good product though.

[strongback31]

CYTO GAINER IS GREAT POST WORKOUT. Low fat...taste ok

UP YOUR MASS is my favorite hands down. It keeps the blood sugar stable and it has the cleanest ingredient profile. Oat bran for fiber, and is also great to replace a meal. i will also try REAL GAINS SOON.

[Splitting_Heads]

is anyone concerned that True Mass contains 100% of your daily needs of iron? i hear that's not so good...

[missile_silo]

Wanna know what really works well. It helped me gained 20 lbs last month. Its called food.

You're absolutely right! But you have to remember that there are times it's just hard to eat 6 meals (real food) a day mostly if you're always out and about. And that's where protein or weight gainer comes in. You have to remember that one serving of protein/weightgainer shake is equivalent to eating steak or chicken breast. What's good about these drinks is that they have the precise blend of calories, carbs and protein that our body needs each meal. I normally eat 4 literal food a day and I take 2 servings of protein shake each day so I have a complete total of 6 (sometimes) 7 meals a day and that's how I maintain my size and weight. By the way, my favorite so far that I took back then was Up Your Mass by MHP. I only took half of the serving (2 scoops per serving) and it was good enough for maintaining size and weight. The vanilla is the best flavor IMO.

[Panopticon]

Muscle Juice for me was disgusting and had so much sugar, I couldnt finish all of it. I still have most the tub just sitting there. Glad it was cheap

I get Vanilla, add a scoop of peanut butter and throw it in the blender.

[Gym_Tan_Fap]

I recently took a closer look at a lot of gainers out there and found that MHP Up Your Mass definitely has the best ingredient profile that I have seen. It has a sufficient amount of protein in it that consists of a nice varied blend. In addition, Up Your Mass has a good amount of EFAs as well with a minimal amount of cholesterol. Regarding the carbs, it isn't all just garbage maltodextrin used for those extra calories, but instead gets much of its carbs from barley, oats, and oat fiber.
Look at almost any other gainer and you will see that its primary ingredient is typically maltodextrin. This is just a way of adding empty calories that really provide no benefit imo.

But with all that said, I kinda sound like an idiot since I have never actually tried Up Your Mass hahaha :o. I have some in the mail on the way right now though that I'm gunna try out. 5lbs of their Fudge Brownie flavor. I'm hoping the taste is as good as the ingredient profile. Maybe I'll post once I get it in.

I Downed A GNC Pro Performance Mass XXX Chocolate (13.07 lbs.) Which I checked on there website and they dont sell the(13.07 lbs.) anymore for some reason. To say the truth you do gain but the taste is horrible. Gained 5lbs over 4 months. But now i'm looking for a better tasting one. Any Recommendations?

[Entourage71]

Hey Guys,

Didn't want to read the whole 75 pages but I read the first couple. It seems like Universal Gains is a good product that isn't too expensive? It seemed to be getting great reviews on the first few pages. I really want to pack on some pounds but I don't want too many of the calories coming from fat. Is Universal Gains the best option? There were also good reviews for BSN True Mass. I'd prefer one without creatine. Thanks for any advice.

[kingbrad]

I use OPTIMUM NUTRITION SERIOUS MASS and so far it is working great. The taste is pretty good, not bad at all. For hard gainers like myself, i think it is a great product.

Im a hard gainer (my metabolism is insane), and am 3 weeks into my routine for the next 12. I'm currently running Muscletech Nitrotech Hardcore after each of my workouts, and just eating as much food as i possibly can each day. But i need even more. So for a hard gainer like myself?...im thinking UN Muscle Juice 2544...ideas? advice?

[kingbrad]

serious mass has like 1250 calories per serving, plus what u eat during the day. that should be enough

[Dante Sly]

Yeah but it also has a full multivitamin mix i believe with 45% iron I believe, both of which is too much, if I'm already taking a multivitamin each day which I am on top of what I eat...and I get plenty of iron, don't want too much.

[puleom]

I just ordered UN Muscle Juice 2544...I'll let you know how it goes

[nba2008]

i used muscle juice for a bit. it's has a crazy amount of sugar and a lots of cals. It will def. help u gain weight but probably a decent amount of fat also. I don't think it's a high quality weight gainer.

[Dante Sly]

Well im a big fan of muscletech nitrotech hardcore...i may just try out their serious mass.

Yeah but it also has a full multivitamin mix i believe with 45% iron I believe, both of which is too much, if I'm already taking a multivitamin each day which I am on top of what I eat...and I get plenty of iron, don't want too much.

i dig it but im trying to get my weight up and so far it helps. i dont take any type of vitamins, figure i would just get it out of my food so ima see how it goes.

[WeltDog]

MJ 2544 does have quite a bit of sugar and carbs but if ur not wanting to spend a load of money then it would work. I'd also recommend Real Gains by Universal...it is similar to MJ 2544 but with less sugar and carbs.

[Ecnewyx]

I don't think MHP's Up Your Mass is as clean as some of the other gainers out there, but for hardgainers/ectos like myself... I can highly recommend it.

It was great for putting on mass... I think the amount of mass put on was probably 50/50 lean at best but hey, it does what it says. :)

Is there really a difference on how "bad" and how "clean" a gainer is for you? As in terms of gaining mass? I read how people say one has lots of sugar or one is low in sugar or one has more of this and less of that. Will it really make a difference on GAINING MASS?

Obviously something with a lot of sugar isn't good for anyone, but from a gaining mass standpoint, does it really matter? I just want to figure out what is the best product for gaining mass regardless of whats in it.

I know you could say "just go out and try some yourself". Yes I could do that but I joined this forum to learn more about getting bigger and I want to narrow it down before I spend $500 trying every weight gainer or mass gainer out there.

I don't know if there's a scientific difference but this is how I think of it:

If you just want to gain MASS period, you can eat a lot of junk and work out like a monster. I tried it and put on about 30 pounds in 3 months, not a small feat considering my frame! That was on a "healthy" diet of weight gainers, chicken nuggets, Subway pastrami sandwiches, about 1 whole rotisserie chicken per day, etc., as well as lifting harder than I ever had before. (This was on MHP's Up your Mass, btw.) I was eating so much I felt like throwing up just THINKING about how much I was eating, or would have to eat every day.

At the end of it I was strong as an ox, and had put on inches around my chest and arm to boot. But also 3 inches around my waist. THAT was not a good thing. It took me some time to cut all the fat off, after which I also lost a bit of size overall but I was still bigger than when I started.

So that would be an example of I think a very "un-clean" way to gain mass. (I.e., for every 1 pound of mass gained, 60% of it was fat while 40% of it was muscle mass.)

When I think of a clean way, I think of putting on less mass per week, but having that mass be quality mass, i.e., 60% or more muscle mass to 40% or less fat per 1 pound of mass gained.

I've tried Real Gains, Muscle Juice (yuck in terms of how sweet it was!), but I keep going back to Up Your Mass. I just opened up a new jug now, but this time I'm going to try and keep the calories a little bit lower. I might not be gaining 2-3 pounds a week, but what I do gain I can hopefully keep even after cutting.

How long does Up Your Mass last for you Ecnewyx? Also you said you took it for 3 months along with eating a ton?

[Ecnewyx]

A 5 lb jug lasts about 3 weeks for me, I split each recommended serving into 2 servings with whole milk + peanut butter thrown in.

And yeah, I was eating everything in sight. Part of it was just wanting to see if I -could- gain that much weight. I've been skinny my whole life.

A typical day during that time might look something like:

Breakfast: Oatmeal, 3-4 hardboiled eggs (1-2 egg yolks), weight gainer shake w/ whole milk, banana.

Snack: Small bowl of mixed nuts, protein shake w/ water, 1-2 packs of $0.99 chicken nuggets.

Lunch: Yams, veggies, 1/2 a chicken, weight gainer w/ whole milk.

Pre/post-workout: More nuts, protein shake w/ water, $0.99 burger.

Dinner: Yams, veggies, 1/2 a chicken.

Before bed: Casein shake w/ whole milk.

!!! IMPORTANT NOTE: I'm not saying that was a good idea, or healthy, or even that I recommend it or would do it again. That's just what I did. PLEASE check with someone more knowledgeable before you OD on cholesterol....

[befamous7]

Haha thanks for the note. I notice some people take protein shakes or weight gainer shakes in the morning, I have considered it but I don't know how much it will help. I should just man up and try it I guess. I've never tried whole milk before though.

I've been on Cyto Gainer ever since I started lifting, and while it put on 30 lbs in a year, I have plateaued at 195 and can't seem to put on any more pounds, and it has been 6 months! Any suggestions?

I borrowed 4 scoops = 1 serving from my brother and it ws choclate flavour.. mixed it with water and DAMN it was so sweet i couldnt drink it after a small sip, LOL.

I spilled all away.. Even though My bro says his putting on some weight but its not all clean as the Muscle juice has loads of SUGAR in it..

That was Way too Sweet. There was a time when i was gona order it But I find it difficult to drink.

I have tried BSN's True Mass, ON's Serious Mass, Cytogainer, GNC gainer and Muscle milk. The best tasting and easiest to mix was True Mass. But the best bang for the buck (value), taste and mixability overall was Serious Mass.

One day last week I was in the gym working out (BACK) I notice this guy

the NEW BSN volumize. I ask him how it was and does it work he said yeah it great even better was the price. I LOL and walk away because my pockets can not afford name brand supplements like that . When I want down stairs in the wt room i seen him again and I ask him fall can you afford those prodoct with going broke he said one of the owner of olympianworld partner with amazon and like him sell name brand supplement on their website to help these companies from going unders and from rasing prices and they agreed he gave me the website http:// olympianmuscle.com .

so when I got home I google it and it did not show up so the next day when i seen him the gym i said if you did not want me to have the website why give me a fake i google it and it did not show up. he hold me put it in the serch box oh ok. got home try it out and he was right . i check amazon for the same price and this website was lower. still did not trust this site so i called amazon to make sure it was on the up and it was I ask way are you selling it at a different price then on your wetsite that is not right check it out stop give these company all your money.

What about Pro Complex gainer from ON

[Xyle101]

A lot of weight gain supplements that are in the market do not work, there's only a few that actually do. There are a few supplements that I have taken that I fully endorse, You can search around the net or in the shops to find the best weight gain supplements for each goal you have, whether it be losing fat, gaining muscle, or gaining weight. Based on my own experience I love hormone dehydroepiandrosterone or DHEA because this supplement is one of the major nutrients responsible for growth and repair of muscles.

Nice review G.K.! Gain Max is a very solid but underrated gainer. The cool thing about it is that it's loaded with a 2:1 ratio of protein to carbs. The specialized protein blend, the Quad Protein Blend, is comprehensive and consists of four proven protein sources: whey hydrolysate (WPH), whey protein concentrate (WPC), casein, and egg. It's then coupled with a special Quad Carb Blend comprised of highly functional complex carbohydrates, ranging from trehalose and waxy maize starch (WMS) to d-glucose and maltodextrin.

I have tried multaple weight gainers, and the best I have used is UYM, It doesn't have all the sugar that most of your gainers have, and uses complex carbs, instead of the simple carbs that jacks up your insulin everytime you drink it, The other gainers work but they gave me a belly. MHP is expensive but well worth it.

[beginnerbutold]

Most weight you are are gaining - is it more of fat or more of muscle?

[snbgnc]

Most weight you are are gaining - is it more of fat or more of muscle?

It's made by MHP, It's called Up Your Mass, it uses oats, barley, and barley fibers, instead of maltodextrin. I try to eat complex carbs throughout the entire day except post workout, to keep insulin in check. It helps keep energy levels up, without the crash you get from sugar. I has a great ratio of Carbs/Proteins/Fats. It helps build more muscle, without the belly.

Allmax Quickmass. I'm a natural thin guy, smallish bone structure etc etc. Your usual hardgainer i guess you could say.

I've noticed a difference in my chest and back since i've been using it.(1month few weeks) i also eat like a freak tho, So it's hard to say. I'm sure the extra calories have helped tho.

I take half servings, 1 in the morning and one in the evening before bed.

mixes very well and tastes great, cookies aand creme, aswell as strawberry-banana.

if you dont want to gain any fat id stay away from the weight gainers, you're gonna want to consume lots and lots of protein. feel free to use a supplement for protein, but get most of your needs from your diet. stay away from sugars, and if you're trimming go easy on the carbs.

Someone recommended you take in 8k calories a day... are you on steroids by chance? Or are you perhaps a swimmer or a marathon runner??
Oh and i make my own...

1 cup milk (could do 2 or 0 and change water, just fits my needs better)
1 cup water
1 scoop whey
.5 scoop egg protein
.5 scoop casein
1 scoop sugar
1 scoop ground oats
5g creatine
5g BCAA

[Blindead]

I thought about cytogainer, but I can tell by the cholesterol levels that they're using horrible protein. I don't expect isolate in a gainer, but when you get 150mg of cholesterol in 54g of protein, it's not exactly high quality. That, and those gainers with badly formulated and low quality vitamin/mineral blends annoy me.

Whats up guys,

Whats the best weight gainer shake to drink as a pre-workout supplement as I dont have enough time to eat food until after i finish training......

[REvolving]

Just some food for thought-I'm a hard gainer and just gained exactly 5 pounds in less than a week taking TRUE Mass and Green Mag. Bench press went up pretty well, also. I'll keep ya'll posted....

[Hollywood_HD]

The best weight gainer for me is the classic MEGA MASS by Wieder. It's the grandaddy of weight gainers with 500 calories per serving. For me the whole point of using a weight gainer is to simply bump up your total caloric intake during the offseason or bulk up phase. It tastes great and the brand Weider is the hallmark of excellence. I take two servings a day which gives me an easy and convenient 1000 calories on top of the calories I get from solid meals. With added non-fat milk powder, one serving of Mega Mass should give me about 620-630 calories. That's a monster amount.

But the technique that I use to avoid getting too much unwanted bodyfat is to decrease my food intake to compensate for the added 500 calories. So if I normally eat 6 meals a day, adding one serving of Mega Mass will make me fatter than what is expected. So I simply substitute one serving of Mega Mass with one solid meal. So if I consume 1,800 claories a day from my standard six meals, removing one snack meal of 250 calories and replacing that with one serving of Mega Mass will boost my caloric intake by an extra 250 calories. By not allowing too much excess calories to go inside my body, I stay pretty lean throughout the year.

I'm planning to try "ON Serious Mass" or Pro Complex. I'm the type of bodybuilder who usually relies on just plain whey protein powder as I try to maintain a lean look almost througout any given year. Weight gainers will bloat you but it definitely will make you bigger and fuller albeit make you smoother and softer. That's the whole point anyway.

I just got my ON Serious Mass in about 3 days ago from bb.com and yeah the scoops are 1 cup each and a serving requires 2 scoops. I cut it down to just 1/2 a serving because it's just too much in my opinion, I'm also taking ON Whey in the mornings and ON Casein before bed, as far as seeing any gains, it's too early to tell

pretty much. I started taking cytogainer about a month ago and while I am happy it packed on some pounds, I feel like it put on a little too much fat. I am finding it difficult to do as many pull ups as I could do before I started taking it (basically i'm putting on fat faster than muscle). Once I finish the container I ordered I'm just going to order a nice container of protein and take that. I put on about 13 lbs in 3 months time (obviously not all muscle) and I'm happy about that but my gut is getting a little flabby compared to the rest of my body so I'm gonna try to clean up my diet (i've been dirty bulking for a while now).

[EarvGotti]

I started rippetoes workout 8 weeks ago and within those 8 weeks I've gone through 3 cases of Cytogainer Chocolate Malt. I've put on around 20 pounds in that time period with a little bit of belly fat, but not too much. It has helped me thicken up my whole body really well.

And it's been amazing. Very good taste, 3g creatine, 2 g glutamine. I take it with milk and I never feel bloated or uncomfortable.

I typically take a half serving with about 8 ounces of milk as each serving (around 400-500 calories). I'll always take on first thing in the morning, right before bed and before working out. Occasionally Ill throw an extra serving in.

I figured that each case lasts me around 3 weeks.

Even though I love cytogainer and swear by it I am going to order a case of Real Gains because it is a similar ingredient profile to Cytogainer. But I want to take a little while off creatine so I need a gainer during that time frame. I will get back on cytogainer after Real Gains is done

I do have to say that the amino acid profile in Real Gains is definitely better than cytogainer.

Price wise they both are almost identical in price. The main question is whether you want the creatine or not.

[DJTraps]

Cytogainer didn't do much for me at all. I was most satisfied with Muscletechs Mass Tech got a little thicker all around with this stuff. the only complaint is the price its around 50 bucks for 10 servings. These both have creatine in them if you're taking it separately I'd recommend Up Your Mass by MHP high in glutamine and aminos without the creatine.

i was a skinny bastard (5'11", 140 lbs, marathon runner) before i met cyto-sports cyto-gainer (vanilla creme flavor)!

now, two months later, i am . . . a slightly less skinny bastard (145 pounds (minus water), maybe one of those new pounds is fat).

it didn't taste all that good with water (left an aftertaste like i'd been sucking hospital air in through a very thin straw for a couple of hours), though mixing it with some green tea and soy milk was an exxxxxcellent idea.

i would like to continue building muscle (my goal is 170-ish), and am maybe two days away from ordering my next big shipment of supplements from BB.com.

i am diabetic, and am thus conditioned to kinda hate the taste of chocolate.

any suggestions???

i see that cyto-gainer has a "vanilla caramel swirl" flavor, and it seems to me that the taste of caramel would help mask some of the hospitalishness of the vanilla creme flavor.

i also see that vanilla caramel swirl 3.25lb tubs are sold out -- does this mean it's popular?

i am really very new to bodybuilding (did distance running for a long time and have recently decided it's time to look like a Real Man), so the fact that cyto-gainer has BCAAs, glutamine, and creatine built-in seems to be a plus for me, though a friend of mine (who is much bigger than i am) says that regular creatine monohydrate powder "gets better results".

what do i do???

also, has anyone tried rocky road flavor cyto-gainer? how chocolatey is it?

[i_wanna_be_big]

[i_wanna_be_big]

[chippyx23]

I just started taking weight gainer last week... I got Mass XXX... Havent seen any improvements yet lol... I've been taking 2 scoops with either pb or bananas, and it taste pretty good... Now when is the best time to take it, before I work out, after I work out or before I go to sleep?

[silversv1k]

both, when im cutting i will split half a serving with breakfast (2 scoops) and 2 scoops pwo, when im bulking ill take a whole serving pwo, both times with milk though

[40-Yard Dash_2]

What do you guys think about the muscle juice weight gainer??

Any decent results from it?

It has garnered positive feedback across the boards.

[jvaughan08]

i'm always a little nervous to try mass gainers, im bulking right now, but with so many carbs and sugar it seems like mass gainers are not worth it. but i'm still learnin and i have heard mixed reviews on mass gaining protein so

[hardgainer247]

musclejuice has alot of fat in it, im targeting gainers high in calories and low fat which serious mass is the best for the price but only lasts 2 weeks.

[makaveli870]

tru mass has done alot of me, gained 15 or so lbs in a lil over a month

went from 115 to 130

[TomNork45]

Mass XXX from GNC in the morning and Planter's Cocktail Peanuts at night . I gained 7 lbs in 7 days. The mixablility of Mass XXX is the sh*tz. I have to chew it.

[BenMcRae]

musclejuice has alot of fat in it, im targeting gainers high in calories and low fat which serious mass is the best for the price but only lasts 2 weeks.

If your concerned about price what I do is take my carbs/protein separately rather than buying them together as a gainer, it saves a fair bit of money.

I can get a months serving of carbs (100g per serving) for about $10 a month [Glycocarb by interactive], and the Whey (48g serving) for $1 / serving [Gold Standard Whey].

I only get about 600-700 cals but it's cheaper than what a lot of people pay.

I been drinking the Mass XXX for a week and havent gained anything... How many scoops are you doing?

[TomNork45]

I been drinking the Mass XXX for a week and havent gained anything... How many scoops are you doing?

I do 3 in the morning and 2-3 after my workout depending on how hungry i am

[bayareamac]

How does the Mass Xxx taste? I am thinking about trying it

[getpumped00]

I would go with cytosport cyto gainer. Although i never used this product, i hear good this about it and might pick some up my self.

[hulkinout]

I've used Cytosport CytoGainer successfully, and I'm lactose-intolerant, so I'm sensitive to a lot of them. No problems at all.

Two pecs up!

[AlphaBrass01]

I will add to the Cytogainer support. I like it a lot. Mix it in water, and it tastes great. Mix it in milk, and it's the texture of a milkshake and tastes even better. I haven't found a flavor I don't like.

[bayareamac]

cytogainer > MASS XXX ??

which is better?

[TomNork45]

How does the Mass Xxx taste? I am thinking about trying it

Ive only had cookies and creeme, because thats the only flavor i've tried, but i dont blend it, and it tastes like a oreo shake that hasnt been blended enough. It's decent, and i can stand it.

[bayareamac]

So its not the best tasting right but i guess I can try! Thanks 4 the advice!

[nathan549]

im using bsn true mass its great, cept i cnt have it with milk use to drink it with 500-700ml of milk and it just sits on my gut for ages. but had it with water today and it was fine no bloating no nothing :)

[strickland21]

The GNC Mass XXX tastes good i would recommend the chocolate, haven't tried the vanilla..

[livetobuild]

i quit of that **** its impossible to drink. im so ****ing stupid i gain like 5kg with mass tech and just because i saw that **** had more carbs per serving i bought it. 40euros for nothing lol.

hey dude im startin on mass tech like tomoro how much of it did you have and wat was your routine like, cause 5 kg is awesome gain man.

[chippyx23]

Personally, I only tried the Vanilla Mass XXX... I mixed it with just bananas and it taste real good... Then a few times I mixed it with peanut butter and it also taste real good... But the thing is, I just really havent seen any progress...

[ectomorpheus88]

Does anybody know of a gainer that uses whey isolate rather than concentrate? Or that is very low in lactose? If I drink milk on a regular basis it gives me acne so I want to avoid lactose. Also, if there is no such product, does anybody think taking lactase enzyme tablets would stop the acne I get when consuming lactose?

[AlphaBrass01]

I know a couple of people (and there was one poster a few up from here) who have had success with Cytogainer while being lactose intolerant.

[eplnarcis17]

I'm having trouble putting on weight, I have an incredibly fast metabolism. I'm currently using ON's 100% gold standard Whey protein and Sci-Fit Kre-Alkaline 1500. after i finish the kre-alkaine i need help on what weight gainer i should buy. I'm thinking ON's Serious Mass, or BSN's True Mass. Are those good, if not let me know whats the best and what you suggest, thank you.

[JoeFury]

DUDE!! pro-peptide MBF!!! the german stuff!! solid, massive, dense gains!!! no bloating, no water retention! it's got your pro-biotic enzymes to help maximize protein absorption! cyto gainer is crap! no creatine mono! i get bloated and BSN true mass blows, too! not even Ronnie uses true mass. and GNC stuff is cheap and has alot of fillers! but hey, everybody's response to a certain supp ain't always gonna be the same. i look for key and important ingredients. and don't take supps that contain aspartame! use stevia!

[AlphaBrass01]

You can see from my previous posts here that I really like Cytogainer. It has given me some good results. It's not overly expensive. It tastes great (I haven't found a flavor that I don't like). It mixes well. But in the end, Joe is right in saying that everybody reacts differently to different supps. You may have to try a few.

[tehkev14]

is MUTANT MASS from Pvl good?

[PhenomKidd]

Gonna be trying Cytogainer and True Mass soon. Probably use em as morning/during the day protein gainers.

[vishal_pall]

both, when im cutting i will split half a serving with breakfast (2 scoops) and 2 scoops pwo, when im bulking ill take a whole serving pwo, both times with milk though

Thank u for ur help and guidance..

[AlphaBrass01]

both, when im cutting i will split half a serving with breakfast (2 scoops) and 2 scoops pwo, when im bulking ill take a whole serving pwo, both times with milk though
I split it as well, but use 3 scoops each time, so it ends up being 1 1/2 "servings," both times with 12 oz skim milk.

[Sigley]

With the Cytogainer, how do you guys do the servings? For if you do as many as it says theirs only 10 servings in a tub

[AlphaBrass01]

With the Cytogainer, how do you guys do the servings? For if you do as many as it says theirs only 10 servings in a tub
I buy the bigger tubs and use 1.5 servings per day, so a tub lasts me 12 days.

[PhenomKidd]

With the Cytogainer, how do you guys do the servings? For if you do as many as it says theirs only 10 servings in a tub

Go by calories, if you need more take more, need less take less. 1 scoop give you like 280 calories. Weight gainers are more calorie oriented I think. They usually use cheaper whey sources, WPC.

[ectomorpheus88]

Anybody tried ON Pro Complex Gainer? It's over twice as expensive as Serious Mass and hes less calories per serving but is supposed to be much better quality. I know a cheap place to get it - any experiences on it?

[AlphaBrass01]

I haven't tried it, but would LOVE to. I'm just not willing to pay the price for it - at least not any price I've found. I don't know if I'd call it a gainer, though, just because, as you say, it has fewer calories. It looks like a great protein product.

[djm5493]

It's ****in awesome haha.


I got vanilla custard, probably the best tasting powder I've ever had. I've gained 5 pounds in the past 2 weeks. I take it 3 times a day along with Creatine.

[bayareamac]

does cytogainer taste good? i hope it tastes better than muscle milk!

[AlphaBrass01]

does cytogainer taste good? i hope it tastes better than muscle milk!
As I've said before, it tastes great, IMHO. I haven't found a flavor that I don't like, though I think my favorites are Vanilla Caramel Swirl and Chocolate Mint.

[RAMWolff]

Chocolate Mint? I love that flavor, I have dark chocolate with mint every night before bed, helps me sleep for some reason!! Does this stuff settle well in the disgetive system?? Mines a bit sensitive and I have to spend good money to find out that it's making me gassy and bloated!

PS: I think the web sites changed again and I can't find my past orders from the store, anyone care to direct me to where I might find those? Helps me decide what was good last couple of orders and what to avoid buying again!

Thanks

Peace!!

Homemade weight gainers are where it's at...

[brolickant]

the best overall wieght gainer? i just eperiment with high calorie high protien mass gainers. i use to mix the bsn true mass before a workout, myozene after workout. syntha6 and nitro tech before bed, this is when i am power lifting, but to reguler body building i keep it simple....food

it probably sound stupid...but this is what worked for me when i have a lifting routine

[Dennis93]

Hey, i am nearly 16, 5foot 7 and 125 pounds. Been goin 2 the gym for a few months at school, need a good supplement 2 gain quick, lean mass for sprinting, but it needs 2 be cheap. The best ive found is dymatise mega gainer-cheap, loads of whey proetin, carbs, creatine, glutamine and calories. Is this gud 4 me? What has worked for any1 else??? Thanks :)

Go get some whey, weight gainers will make you gain weight. Not just muscle mass I mean weight. You'll probably get some bodyfat and if you don't you probably not someone who needs it.

looks like a solid product to help gain some weight. Check out Muscle Milk Collegiate. worked for me well. Just took 4 scoops before bed and gained pretty fast.

[AMillane7]

IMO gainers can be very clean/very dirty, depending on what you want out of them...If I had to pick a favorite I would have to say cytogainer or real gains on taste alone..I don't see gainers as cost/profile effective though

**Waits for gaspari's gainer**

[member666]

Homemade weight gainers are where it's at...

Care to explain? I'd be interested ... or are you just referring to feasting lots?

Dymatise looks okay. Based on price, you might also want to check out "Gainmax" by SportPharma. It's relatively inexpensive

http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/sport/gainmax.html

If you are looking for lean mass, you should go for Whey protein instead of Weight Gainer. I did a quick search for you based on price again.

You can either go with Dymatise Elite Whey
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/dym/elite.html

OR

Go with SportPharma "Just Whey"
http://www.bodybuilding.com/store/sport/justwhey.html

They both seem like good products.

Now my mini review on my Weight Gainer that I started taking 1 week ago. Last weekend, I started on CytoGainer in Chocolate Mint. For the first week, I've been taking half servings but will go full this next week until I finish off my 18 lbs of it!!
Taste: This thing is surprisingly delicious if mixed with milk. Tastes just like a real milkshake. Throw in a banana and it's even better. It has a very minimal after taste but I dont even notice it anymore.
"Mixability": In the shaker, I'm generally able to get about 98% of it mixed. Mixes very well and the same goes for a blender when I put in a banana.
Results: Too early to tell but if you read the testomonials in this thread, one can see that CytoGainer seems to be gaining popularity.

[bayareamac]

As I've said before, it tastes great, IMHO. I haven't found a flavor that I don't like, though I think my favorites are Vanilla Caramel Swirl and Chocolate Mint.

I got the cytogainer it has sort of a weird after taste to it. Anybody else dont really like it?

[chippyx23]

I guess GNC Mass XXX is a no go... Been taking it for 3 weeks+ and havent even gained ounces... Should I keep taking it or it wont help at all... This is the first weight gainer I took, so maybe I was thinking it takes time to kick in... Im not sure...

[ownthislastime]

ive been on cytogainer since february, still the same weight, well im not sure i think i may just be a hard gainer. but idk has anyone tried N-Large?

[user94984100999]

Im fixin to switch to a weight gainer,and ive researched both cytogainer and pro complex gainer,and i really dont know which to try.im on muscle milk now,so i go with the cytogainer,since its from the same company.

[lshadden5182]

Aftershock: Critical Mass

[hockeyplayer07]

i did not read all of the posts in the so this is probably a re-post but what do you guys think of muscle juice? i just ordered some

thanks

[socket]

cyto gainer is good stuff, but don't use it if you want lean gains....lots of fat. but it sure does taste good, just like muscle milk. it will bulk you up.

[getbiig]

I just picked up cytogainer cockies and cream today. Im starting it tommorow.

Im in the middle of my cycle with m-stak and pak. So far so good gained about 6lbs (so the scale says) arms got a tad bigger that i could notice.

Looking up to gaining more, still mad thin (arm wise)

[plaskowski2002]

Aftershock: Critical Mass

yes sir. i just tested it and it was the ****. best ingerdient profile by far. one of the best tasting too. i believe it s here now so check it out. plus it has WMS so its ideal for post workout too.

[phil27uk]

I have used Maximuscle Progain and ON Serious Mass. Both worked ok but now I can't take anything with Creatine in it. Does anyone have any suggestions about a gainer that I can use that should give some lean gains? One that tastes good would be a bonus too!

Try MHP Up your mass. Stay away from these gainers where the main ingredient is maltodextrin and sugar.

[Turboboy]

I like Champion Nutrition's Heavyweight Gainer 900. The chocolate tastes incredible!!

[warn81]

Anything that will help me gain weight fast...with a lot of calories? I won't be working out much. I tried cytogainer, but I was taking it off and on.

hop on some beta alanine. you won't start noticing increased performance for at least a month or so, but it works. increases anaerobic theshold by 15 % after prolonged use. and you don't have to phase off. also, it's completely safe for teens. check out this website for factoid info

http://www.betaalanine.info/

the way to use it is as follows (clinically studied and proven)
21-29 days loading, 6 grams a day, spread out over 3 meals.

4 grams a day after that.

you can buy it dirt cheap at www.purebulk.com. get about 7-8 months worth for 45 bucks. and as for preworkout goes, just try different stuff. the NO-xplode worked pretty well, but the effects didn't last. Black powder is also pretty sick, but again, have to cycle off. the only product i've heard of where you don't have to cycle off is Armageddon, by StarChem Labs, because it's a glycerol based product, not AAKG. (arginine alpha ketoglutarate)

if you do get the armageddon, be sure to get the black bottle, the gray bottle tastes like garbage, or puke, however you like to name it.

[RudeDaddyFlex]

Innovative Delivery Systems (IDS) Smart Gainer. Its the only weight gainer ive ever taken, but it worked pretty damn good, i gained 22 pounds while i used it and since i used that last scoop a few months ago i havent been gaining weight quite as fast! haha plus the strawberry banana tasted pretty good too so im gonna have to say IDS SMART GAINER.

[Briant2828]

I always had trouble gaining weight, until i started taking Muscle Juice 2544. Took that 2 times a day 4 scoops a shot with milk and a banana tastes amazing and packs in just under a 1000 calories with milk i figured with the amount of milk and with the banana i was getting up to 1500 calories, and 85grams of protien. So that twice a day 7 days a week till i went throught the 13 pound tub i gained about 15 pounds and wanted to see how much i would lose so stopped it for one month lost about 2 pounds after stopping it. Were i live a the local popeyes it sets me back about 75 bucks for 13 pounds. definetly recommend this

might want to add that i have a bodyfat percentage of ~4% so it wasnt fat :)

BSN truemass, ive put on 6kgs in the last month! Just keep your carb intake up and you will put on mass no worries. I started at 53kgs im just shy of 60kgs.

[rturluck]

Anyone here know of a weight gainer that is high in fat with low to zero carbs?

Can anyone recommend a lean muscle gainer?
Or should I just go with Cyto gainer?

[chinkecheese]

is noxplode something i may want? I have 18% BF, and would like to get thinner.

only intaking 1500 cals, over a recommended 3000 diet

Your post title asks the best overall weight gainer.....are you trying to gain or cut? what is your overall goal?

[chinkecheese]

im trying to gain, i am really weak. hehe.

but i also have fat id like to get rid of, im sort of in the middle..

want to get stronger, while losing this bit of fat I've got..

any recommendations?

[darkstar765]

Real Gains FTW, its really low in sugar.

[MafdetX]

Cytogainer

Tastes amazing, mixes well, has a little creatine monohydrate in it, good for lactose intolerant people.

[BigShot11]

definantly true mass by bsn ...**** adds a good stack ...but i like all thier products ...with the exception of atro-phex

[ectomorpheus88]

definantly true mass by bsn ...**** adds a good stack ...but i like all thier products ...with the exception of atro-phex

BSN are so expensive though.

I got some Strawberries and Cream Cytogainer and it tastes terrible, it does mix OK in a shaker though and fills me up good and proper. I thought a full serving might be too much but it's really not bad. I'll go with Cookies and Cream next time or Chocolate Mint. Just buying a big 6lb tub without having sampled flavours before hand sucks but I don't know of any place you can get samples from.

[Pulits]

Bionic Edge Mass Builder seems solid.

Serious Mass by ON also seems a decent option!

[furyhockey]

MHP Up Your MASS Fudge Brownie was good. The way they use their carb source is much different than others. There carbs come from Dry Oats, and Barley. ON Serious Mass did the job also (12lb bag of course)

[sablan02]

Anyone else taking this? I just bought chocolate and tried it about 3 times. Its 4 scoops per serving which is alot! It takes me a while to finish that thing up so i wont gag or throw up.

I was wondering if anyone taking it has split up the scoops? like take 2 scoops before workout then 2 scoops after? or should i just take the whole 4 scoops after the workout to get better results? thanks!

[himynamesdanny]

im currently takin it yes thats exactly what i do. i take half before and half after with some whey.
u wont really get better results from just taking it after its actually prolly better result is u split it up before and after but i wait like an hour till i work out after i take it

[chippyx23]

I was taking XXX after the workout with just 2 scoops and a banana... Havent gained anything from it...

[Faboo]

I see alot of home made shakes, and mixes using banana in it. Is this just a taste/consistancy thing or is there a reason???

[GabrielMenslage]

I would have to say BSN's True Mass.

[TeeSpank25]

I haven't seen one person on here post it. Its not very common online either but every nutrition/supplement store around here has it.
SmartGainer!
More bang for you buck than Cyto and probably best value out there for gainers
