Weight gainers

Anyone use Gainer by Optimum Nutrition?

I am looking for something to give me some extra calories, protein and carbs the last 6 weeks of my cycle.

Offer up your opinions that you have on others as well. I need something for mid-morning and mid-afternoon.

Never tried their gainer but I love optimum nutrition. I kind of gave up on the gainers and just try to eat more. Never had a lot of luck with gainers. Maybe I'll give it one last try on my next cycle.

I've tried a lot of different gainers, including the Nlarge, Optimum is probaly one of the best as far as taste and content. Its the one i usually stick 2.

You can save alot of cash and make your own.... You can get great prices on bulk whey and dextrose from supplement direct. IMO most weight gainers are abit overloaded with carbs. This way you could meter out macronutrient dosages to suit your own needs.

i love mixing my Nlarge2 (vanilla) with 2 servings of orange Phosphagen Hp....mix a tablespoon of glutamine in there pop it on the blender....greatest postworkout shake you will taste

I usually mix pure whey, dextrose, and creatine with orange juice post workout. Tastes pretty good too. Glutamine is a waste IMO.

I got me a 10-pound bag of the Optimum stuff. It said 2 scoops per serving...no problem. Then I opened the bag and found the scoop Tha damn thing is like a pint glass! There was something like 12 servings in a 10-lb bag. I needed a gallon of milk just to blend the shit up. It tasted decent though. I ended up making my own custom mix with that and a 5lb jug of whey.
