      not of fan of weightgainers. (at least from a manufacturer) i would always lean for homemade "gainers" by adding rolled/crushed oats (oatmeal), flax/peanut butter, milk with your regular protein powder. You will be getting a superior carbohydrate source from the oatmeal than the maltodextrine/dextrose dominated gainers like nlarge, cytogainer, simply gain, etc......although, i have tried nlarge back in the past and felt easy on the stomach to chug down. (pretty cheap too for a 10lb tub...should only cost you in the low 30's) Sage

      use the homemade kind.

      get it from the grocery store.

      mine is oatmeal, whey, udos choice, and whipping creme.

      then when cutting, call it a meal replacement.
      Do you know where one builds action, stamina and guts? In the gym under the iron day after day, forever without fail or excuses or grumbling, that’s where. It’s true. I read a study somewhere and that’s what it said, really.

      There’d be fewer battles, less drugs and less crime and more happy moms and dads if we all lifted weights… let’s face it. In what recent medical journal was I reading that?

      Thumbs down Downing a weight gainer is like taking a fat injection!

      One serving of N-Large 2 contains 52 grams protein, and 89 grams carbs, but only lists 23 of those grams carbs as sugar. The rest are simply maltodextrin. Malto is 130 on the GI scale. It's considered a complex carb but has a higher spike than Dextrose, and acts just like sugar in the body. So the sugars far outweigh the protein, and I'm sure many young guys with incredibly fast metabolism see huge size gains off this product. But the same guys would see every bit as much muscle, minus the fat, if they were to stick with a high grade of blended protein, like Optimum Complete Protein Diet, or even 100% whey, and got all their carbs from whole food. Never use more than 30 gms high gi carb post-workout. I use all low gi (oatmeal) now and results are impressive. Pre-workout nutrition is essential in keeping the body from entering into a catabolic state and then the need for a post workout insulin spike is diminished. N-Large2 has way too many high gi carbs to make it even a viable post-workout protein.

      Last but not least, weight gainers usually have the lowest available grade of cheap ass whey concentrate as their main protein source. If you must use a gainer, the one formulated by YellowJacket is the best one I have seen.

      I have to agree with JB here. I have used NLarge and Champion SWG. Both gave me around 7 lbs of weight each time I used them. I have a fast metabolism though. I would only suggest it at once a day. But I do use YJ's formula now for snacks and I love it.
