Weight gainers are all about increasing calorie intake - and in my professional opinion - are a waste of fucking money. Drink a pint of milk after a training session, chocolate of you like - but then consume a small complex carb/protein meal within 2-3 hours after.
All weight gainers and protein powders are heated to high temperatures to dehayrate the melecule and form a powder right? (Well, in a nutshell..)
All proteins denature when they reach that temperature - so there is no product on the market (that is labelled as a sports product) that contains a complete protein - and its complete protein that rebuilds the body.... Any weight gain from these products is through an increase in *calories *and nothing else. So you may as well just reap the same benefits from a cheaper.... tastier option.
Don't even get me started on those fucked up, casein loaded, gut tormenting protein bars.... what a fucking joke.
Eat sensibly, eat clean and the benefits will be tenfold, both internally as well as getting the performance enhanced effects of a functional nutrition base.

"contains 54g of pure whey protein" ..... fuck off. Pure my ass... denatured laxative in my opinion....
