for those of you who desire MASSIVE caloric intake..... i have recently come across TWINLABS GAINERS FUEL 2500. i was shocked when i read that each shake has 2500 calories, 100 grams protien, 500grams carbohydrates, and only 1 gram of fat. i just ordered some on the internet..... has anyone else tried this? i am about to go on a real heavy cycle and need lots of calories to build mass.... i figure 7 meals... one 2500 calorie shake... i think that will do the trick..... i think .... ------------------     | ||

Sust..in my opinion, I think that these high cal/protein gainers are too much at once to benefit from. Your body isn't going to process and use all that is useful from these gainers at once.Basically I think you'll get alittle something from it..But not as much as getting 2500 cals broken down thruout the day. I never did good with these gainers..ended up shitting it all out and wasting my $$$. My .02... .001 after taxes  ------------------ | ||

My problem with the 2500 is the amount of the shit you have to eat. The way they see it you can take 8 scoups and it is a 5000 calorie shake. | ||

when thy sell you the stuff they don't tell you that it has just a 7-8 servings. No shit it gives you 2500 kcal/serving (with whole milk btw). It is not a magic powder, just they make you use huge amounts. | ||

ace thats why you break your meals down to around six a day...you figure 500 cals(which isn't much at all) x 6 = 3000 cals..throughout the day. Not a shitload all at once, but spread it out. Your body benefits by continually being fueled. ------------------ | ||

I like GNC protein shakes better (about 80 grams protein) I hate bulking powders cus they cost a lot of $$$$$ and you barely get anything orther than sugar. | ||

I have been using the stuff for some time now. It takes 3 scoops to get all those calories, but I don't take it all at once. I spread them out and I feel I will get much more out of it that way, and that less will be wasted. It helped me pack on about 10 lbs within 6 weeks or so when I first started taking it. Just my experience. ------------------ | ||

i know its alot of calories....but its hard to get up to 5000 without using this.... HOW MUCH CHICKEN/TUNA CAN YOU EAT IN ONE DAY!!!!! atleast this shake gets you to 2500....a few more regular protien shakes should get you to 4000.....and the tuna and chicken can get you to 5000-5500 ------------------ | ||

I don't think anyone's debating the amount of calories. They are just saying you won't benefit from taking that many calories, at one time. Why is it that you don't eat your whole daily caloric intake in the morning? Cause your body will digest it and turn any unnecesary calories into fat. That's why you have many smaller meals, because your body actually uses the calories rather than store them. There also seems to be a point where extra protein at a single sitting is not going to benefit you. Unfortunatly nobody knows what this is and it will change from person to person (and depending on how much gear you're on ------------------ | ||

Hey sust, did you taste it yet? I couldn't stand it, way too damn sugary. 500 carbs will do that. It just seems like overload to me. I'm a fan of Prolab's NLarge (600cal in water). Hey Dixie, is that Champion's Heavyweight Gainer? That stuff gave me the shits for days!!!!! How do you handle it?! ------------------ | ||

that is wayyyy too many carbs for my tastes. I like keeping carbs low and watching the vasularity come out of me. And also, all TwinLab products have tasted like SHIT to me. Just my opinion. I am sure there are better protein powders out there that have high quality protein, low carbs and sugar. you may have to use them two at a time, but so be it. | ||

I agree with dixie,any more than 700 to 900 calories at once will give gass,the shits,and be a waste.Again agreeing with dixboy,weight gainer 900 is awseome i swear to god it tastes like melted ice cream,choc or vanilla.I know people who buy it to mix with protein to better the taste

During my last cycle(omna, d-bol and deca) I used it. I used the Fat Free one though. It has 2400 calories and no fat. It has 88 grams of protein per serving. The buckets were only 9 pounds not 10. First problem was the scoop. The container said only three scoops per serving, well that fucking scoop is a shovel! It barely fits through the opening! Then there is the taste. It is like sugar water. I would fill with gas after drinking a whole pitcher of this shit. I had to stop after three weeks. I started to make half portions and it was better. Then I stopped and went back to designer protein and Myoplex. I still have 4 buckets left. I will save them for my next bulking. | ||

I used last year with my cycle and loved it. I liked the taste of it, chocolate or vanilla. I drank it throughout the day. The bad things are it does have alot of sugar and a big tub only last about 1 week because the scoop is HUGE!!! Like someone said on hear its hard to get it out of the container. | ||
