Best Overall Weight Gainer?

**RenegadeRows** · 10-17-2006, 03:31 AM

The best I've encountered:

Real GAINS
CytoGainer

Expensive, but still good:

True Mass

**jmagnum** · 10-17-2006, 07:05 PM

Another vote for Real Gains. It's a great product. I have packed quite a few pounds of lean, quality muscle from just two 6lb tubs. I totally recommend it for people who have a hard time gaining weight.

**Steve222** · 10-17-2006, 07:42 PM

Dead babies....lots of protein and carbs. Eat 1 or 2 post-workout and youll gain like crazy.

Sike.... I just tried out Real Gains and enjoyed it alot. Cytogainer's in the mail....

I really like ON pro complex gainer

**Groper305** · 10-18-2006, 01:35 AM

A clean bulk that i've had alot of success with has consisted of Pasteurized liquid egg whires, Whey isolate and Hydrolized cassein protein, 5 g pure creatine monohydrate, 7g leucine, honey, unsweetened coconut water without the pulp (can of Goya), cinnammon, oats, water.

I make this all from scratch but the trouble is well worth it since sucrose from most premixed name brand weight gainers make me bloat.

No doubt.

**EMISGOD** · 10-18-2006, 08:45 PM

What's the best flavor of Cyto Gainer?

**Groper305** · 10-19-2006, 12:25 AM

"Dulce de leche" without a doubt!!!!

have you tried switching your workout plan? I have plateaued before, but put your body into shock and switch your workout plan. There are some intense workout plans that might help you on this website.

Hey Groper305, can you tell me why you drink unsweetened coconut water. I'm just curious. I haven't seen the label of a Goya can, but maybe you can share.

I'm a little skeptical when it comes to weight gainers. I figure that all you need is a regular protein supplement along with an increase in diet and a change in workout program. However, I bought Cytosport's Cyto gainer and wow! I went from 145lbs to 175 in three months! I was suprised with my results. I figured that it was because I had slimmed down for swim season and it was easy to gain the pounds back, but a 30lb increase was far more than expected. Try Cyto Gainer.

**JayQ** · 10-24-2006, 09:31 PM

The best weight gainer I have ever used is Russian Bear 5000. It's what I got the best gains with and is relatively cheap compared to others. Here's its stats:
Calories: 2600, Protein: 184gm, Carbohydrate: 391gm, Medium Chain Triglycerides: 46gm, Fat: 0gm, Beta Carotene: 2300IU, Vitamin D: 460IU, Vitamin C: 138mg, Natural Vitamin E: 69IU, Vitamin B1: 4mg, Vitamin B2: 5mg, Vitamin B6: 5mg, Vitamin B12: 14mcg, Niacin: 46mg, Pantothenic Acid: 23mg, Folic Acid: 920mg, Biotin: 690mg, Paba: 23mg, Choline: 460mg, Inositol: 460mg, Calcium: 1150mg, Magnesium: 460mg, Phosphorus: 805mg, Iodine: 35mg, Potassium: 1265mg, Zinc: 17mg, Copper: 5mg, Chromium: 200mcg

You've got to be kidding me. You didn't mention that you have to take one gallon of milk with 4-5 scoops in order to achieve those numbers. And we don't know how many grams are there in those 4 or 5 scoops. Some people got diarrhea for taking that much dosage as you can see here:

**Hazman** · 10-25-2006, 04:43 AM

for the cyto gainer do you have to take the actual serving amount? or can you adjust it to your own figures, because i swear ive read that 55g of protein or more doesnt get fully digested? :S

**AaronX** · 10-25-2006, 05:03 AM

Real Gains definitely! Taste like ice-cream! Time for me to get a serving of that now! Ciao

Thanks bro for the praise... Still got some Real Gains samples lying around... PM if interested. Later.

**GuyLondon** · 10-25-2006, 05:36 AM

Best for me is BSN True-Mass (Strawberry flavour is nice)

**FiTTedOuBLeXL** · 10-25-2006, 06:37 AM

My favorite weight gainer would have to be SIZE UP by MetRx. It is fairly new and i am on my third tub. I have recently competed for my first time this past july at 195 lbs. I started taking this weight gainer soon after. I have gained about twenty pounds of strictly lean muscle due to cardio and taking fat burners with a clean diet. My strenght is through the roof... About six months ago i was weighing 240 lbs. I am about 215 right now and i am stronger than i was at 240. Therefore this is by far my favorite weight gainer. SIZE UP

Hey before you started taking this what was your daily calorie intake, and what is it now?

**alphaqforever24** · 10-26-2006, 01:49 PM

the people that take cytogainer do u guys take it the 3 time a day 4 scoops??? thats what it says on the directions on the label. thats kinda allot dont u guys think??? if u do take it 3 times a day a 6 lb tub will last u 6 days thats almost 5 tubs a month. thats crazy.

1 take 4scoop one time a day, 3 time a day is overkill imho

**ZombieGore** · 10-26-2006, 02:14 PM

im also takin 4 scoops once a day

**lgolden2005** · 10-27-2006, 05:06 PM

CytoGainer is excellent, low fat, high carb, high protein and low sugar

**lifterohio** · 10-27-2006, 05:45 PM

Tried muscle milk: didn't work
tried cyto gainer: didn't work
tried muscle juice: didn't work

mixed all 3 up in a big tub- BEST WEIGHT GAINER ON EARTH!

The muscle milk took too long to digest but is diluted with the other two so it acts as a short medium and long term provider of protein and carbs, muscle juice didnt dissolve all that well, but it had good vitamins and good source of cals from a varity of different sources(egg, milk, soy, maltodextrin, fructose, medium chain triglycerides), And cyto gainer has the whey hydrolysate and more and varied sugar sources(5 different forms of sugar, sweet!), plus of the 3 it mixes the best.

overall, all 3 products could use more whey hydrolysate and simple dextrose, leaving the mix a bit lacking, but non-the-less, it still works great for me!

**jforse2801** · 10-27-2006, 07:39 PM

I love ProLab N-Large 2. Its nice for lactose intolerant people such as myself. I take 4 scoops twice a day. Extra 1200 calories, Carbs 170, Protein 104

NICE

**Macrobolic** · 10-27-2006, 08:36 PM

I like MHP's Up Your Mass. Good ratio of carbs, protein, and good fats. It mixes well and tastes really good. Another one that i liked was MuscleMeals by MuscleLink.

**NYBuilder74** · 10-27-2006, 09:17 PM

Cytogainer for sure.

It tastes great and I gained 20 pounds while using it in two months.

Only cons I come across with the product is the price and the fact that a 6 lb. container only lasts about 2 weeks.

**redskinsfanatic** · 10-29-2006, 12:39 PM

Does anyone know a weight gainer that isn't so expensive?

**ziki** · 10-29-2006, 08:19 PM

I've been using Muscle Juice 2544 and I have to agree it is a b*tch to drink because it doesn't break up without the use of a blender. Adding a banana and some natty pb to the mix makes the taste better though. Can't wait to finish this up and get a different product.
