    Which 2 weight gainers are better?

    I was at Vitamin Shoppe the other day and i was looking around for a very good weight gainer. After looking i was trying to decide between HeavyWeightGainer900 or Russian Bear 5000 Weight Gainer. Now for the HeavyWeightGainer900 there is 620 calories 35g of protein 105 carbs and all this is for 4 scoops. For the Russian Bear there is 2600 calories 184g of protein and 391 Carbs for 5 sccops. Now some people might think of course Russian Bear, but im really looking for some one who has experienced with any of these. Or if some one has experienced and has something alot better than any of these, that would be great. I would really appreciate the help

    They all suck IMO. The carbs are not good and not dextrose either. I would just go with whey protein isolate and isolate w/ dextrose PWO.

    You can make your own weight gainer. Like nsa said, use 100 grams of dextrose, with 50 grams of protien pwo. That'll give you 600 calories.

    For times other than PWO, you should probably use maltodextrin and (micellar casein)protein, both are slower digesting so they drip feed your body carbs and aminos over time. But definately Dextrose and whey protein for PWO.
