Best value for money weight gainer?

[nicksixx]

Looking for a weight gainer which people would consider best value for money.

I can get 10kg of MAX'S supersize (50g protein - 750cals) for $180 which is so far the best value I can find so far.

However, one serving is three 40g scoops, so drinking 2 shakes a day = about 6-8 weeks worth....which is what I get out of 4kg of pure whey protein.

Any suggestions?

Buy Oats, protein powder, Peanut butter and make your own.
1. It wont be all sugars.
2. You save tons money.
3. Gainers are pointless, eat real food.

homemade gainers are an awesome option, but if time is your enemy, Beast has a new gainer coming out called Gargantua so keep your eyes peeled for that one

very nice man.

other easy additions:

fruit, EVOO, EVCO..

too easy & convenient to make your own shake, without having to resort to pre-made, over-priced, sub-par profiles..

get homebrand or coles homebrand oats.. $1.20 for like a bag that lasts you all week.

eat it how ever you want and get in enough protien for the day..


dont waste your money on gainers bro.. really expensive BRB 3 kilo tub lasts you 3 weeks for $150..

get goldstandard whey 10lbs for 150 (lasts over 2 months at 2 shakes a day) and oats for carbs

This. Gainers are ok if you have the money to spend and want the convenience. But I just eat my oats with my protein shake in the morning. If I need want more calories, I'll eat some peanut butter. Just takes about 10 extra minutes and saves you a lot of $.

Any suggestions?

1) Buy protein, peanut butter and oats
2) Mix them together
3) Consume
4) Gain weight

Also, eat more REAL food. If you're considering drinking two gainer shakes a day, you're probably not eating enough chicken/rice/steak/fish/etc.

Like everyone above stated save yourself money and the guesswork and buy your own ingredients that way you know exactly whats going into what youre drinking. Saves a TON of money too.

This. I also add a banana or two and once in a while a tbsp of olive oil.

The thing is, I am that lazy that I will happily pay extra for the convenience of having it all in one powder...especially because half of my shake consumption is at uni or work....I cannot foresee oats and peanut butter mixing well just from shaking my little wire ball in my shaker

I just eat them with the shake. Some people mix them togehter, but i just eat the oats right of out of package without cooking them and the peanut butter right out of the jar.

this.
1 scoop of protein, with some peanut butter, and a cup of oats. good stuff.
i always made mine into a paste, then stuck it in the freezer for a few.

Screw that. Spend your money on real food. I'd take the instant brown rice and chicken I just ate over some sh*tty weight gainer powder any day.

It takes some trial and error, but I've mixed that combo many times in my Blender Bottle.
