I need to get some weight gainer because I am ectomorphic. everyone is recommending N Large-2 which has 69something calories. Why would that be better than something like Twinlab's Supergainer that has 3000 calories? If I am also drinking protien shakes which would be better? Any explanation is apprecated. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I'm not into the weight gainers so I can't help you there. But, I've tried every protein and MRP shake I can find, and I personally think Myoplex(EAS) is the best. Its not all milk proteins and caseinate like Met-Rx, but it has enough of those to have a decent amount for slower absorbtion. Myoplex deluxe costs about $2 a pack, and normal myoplex is less. I think Myoplex tastes the best also. Chocolate rocks. As far as pure protein goes, I use Designer pretty religiously. Before bed I use Pro-blend by HDT, because it has proteins that won't get used right away. A lot of dudes will recommend cheaper types of protein and MRPs, but I stick with bigger names because the regulation by the FDA on a lot of these things is virtually non-existent. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

I'm with Taibox on the experimenting thing. I've tried everything out there and so far the only thing that doesn't mess me up is Nitrotech. I tried taking MLS weightgainer, good for 2,500 calories each serving but man, that stuff gave me the shits really bad. I try to get all of mine from real food. It's really not that difficult if you can split up your meals into 5 or 6 per day. It's certainly do-able. ------------------ ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

There is nothing that I hate more than to hear how Bill Phillips is getting richer by peddling his over-priced supplements. If you are looking for a quality weight-gainer that is reasonibly priced and has no simple sugar, check out Kwik Size XXXL by Lee Labrada. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||

Nlarge is a good quality weight gain powder due to it's high (52) protein content. It's not all sugar like a lot of the High calorie weight gainers. Scitech is a newer company and has some pretty awesome products now. They have a couple of meal replacements that have like 15 grams of Branch chain per serving and a very high portion of glutamine as well You could also go the cheap route like myself. Get a pretty decent whey-casien mix like in Myoplex or even Optimum's Pro-complex and add some fruit juice. You won't pay more for all of the carbs and you can make it any flavor you want. I take a mix of Whey/Casein with no carbs at night with some Flax seed oil before bed. Remember that fat slows the absorption of things so it will digest throughout the night. I also take extra Glutamine at night as well. I'm no guru, but I know a little. Good Luck! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() | ||
