Re: Take Weight gainer on non work out days?
That isnt much of a weight gainer IMO. How many calories are in that, 375 or so? If I were to take a weight gainer, it would have something above 800 calories, UNLESS you plan on taking a few per day. You should take it anytime, whenever you think you need it due to not getting in your daily calories. It isnt necessary to take one if you can get enough calories from your normal meals throughout the day.Originally posted by london402

there is nothing special about your "weight gainer" all you are doing is throwing some food in a blender and rinking it instead of eating it.

1. That's NOT a weight gainer. It's a cup of sugar.
2. Yes, take protein shakes/etc on non-workout days. Your body needs the nutrients and protein to fuel growth."Arterial plaque is primarily composed of unsaturated fats particularly polyunsaturated ones." (Felton, C V, et al, Lancet, 1994, 344:1195)
