Best Weight Gainer/Meal Replacment Powder

[Little Boy]

Are people saying that weightgainers don't work? Or just that they are too expensive?

Calories are calories, boys. I agree that homemade weightgainers with protein, oatmeal, etc are great, but you'll grow as long as you eat enough calories.

I like isopure and the BSN product's. Obviously whole food is better but if you can't choke down that much whole food there is absolutley nothing wrong with using a meal replacement,it's better than nothing. Some people will say they aren't good but they must have a bottomless gut.

Thanks for the reply's, I knwo solid food is better for you...that should be a no brainer. I just live a very busy lifestyle and like others said don't have access to a blender or real food all the time so a shake a day helps out alot and not worried about fat, will worry about that when summer comes around again...oh wait I will be deployed so I have almost 2 years to bulk up so bring on the calories. Thanks again guys.

Calories might be calories, but the wrong kind of calories will have you gaining the wrong kind of weight.

I beleive that we are not saying that weight gainers dont work...because they do make you gain weight..but from a weight gainer how much of that is fat?? i mean take out the protein and you might as well eat a chocolate cake....but for those that dont really care about gaining alot of fat..then i guess that would be the way to go...

I do not understand why lots of people are anti weight gainers. I use them with my regular meals because it is easier when you use them to consume the daily amount of calories you required each day. They work fine for me and I get good results from the shakes. The kind I use is Twin Labs Gainers Fuel 2500.

I have no platinum Membership and searched around and can't find too many answers on which brand or product is the Best. So what is your Best overall Weight Gainer/Meal Replacment Powder, determinded by taste, calories, protein, and price. Thanks I think this should help alot out there.

def. true...if you're a weakling starting out I recommend them, if you're already over 210-220 they really aren't the kind of weight you want to be putting on
