    best all round "weight gainer"??

    Over here in England we pay sky high prices compared to you lot here, i've recently been taking N-Large2 by Prolab, I think this stuff is really good and can't wait to start banging it in me when i start my new cycle! i was just wondering wot you lot thought about it? i'm trying to basically just bulk up, i only weigh 170lbs at 5'8 and would love to get to 200Lbs, i appreciate how important our diets are even when juiceing and even more so when not. Can n e one shed some light on wots a good weight gainer?

    A weight gainer is nothing more than a convenient liquid food that packs plenty of protein, carb, and fat calories. They are easy to use and make getting calories much easier. There is nothing "magical" about them. Picking a quality brand is important though and Pro Lab's N-Large certainly fits that bill.

    Champion's Weight Gain 900 is excellent as well.

    I use N-Large2, its a good snack in between meals, and fits the bill nicely.

    It even tastes, ok, which is better than most.

    thanks guys, i know with brands like EAS and Met-Rx you can't really go wrong for quality as its obvious with the prices of the damn stuff, I just wanted to hear it from someone else that Prolab are a reputable company making decent quality products. I find it hard with work etc to get "enough" quality food down, so i need some quality supplement that wont break the bank and gives me enough calories

    bump on the Cytogainer!!! thats what i used; occaissionally throw an extra scoop of Optimum Nutrition's new mix of Whey protein (got hydrolyzed in it now)

    its got good protein vs carbs mix for a full meal; and ESPECIALLY with two cups of milk; hits over 70g of protein with milk... and near 100g with an extra scoop of ON 100% whey

    n-large has waaaaaaaaaaaaay too much sugar. i dont know why everyone religiously goes for it!

    i would go for something like ISS Complete Gainer Power for something in the same range (much more exp but it has v/m) or what i like to use, which is ISS Gainer Matrix. 15g sugar, just half the serving and the important thing is the BLENDED protein for between meals etc.

    I use NLarge, it is pretty good for the money, but one serving of that shit is like drinking a whole keg beer, nearly impossible.....could have been possible in college.
