| Weight gainers are unique in
the supplement world in that
they aren’t trying to make you
lose weight but rather gain
it. In the past, weight
gainers accomplished this goal
by loading you up with huge
amounts of calories consisting
of nothing but sugar and fat.
Fortunately, as nutritional
science has evolved, weight
gainers have become far
healthier. You should always
read the labels of any weight
gainer though, since some
companies still adhere to the
old sugar and fat formula.
The key to weight gainers is
their ability to deliver a
large amount of calories
quickly. They are typically
used as a meal replacement and
contain a healthy mix of high
quality protein, carbohydrates
and small amounts of fat.
Generally these weight gainers
are taken in powder form by
mixing them with water or
milk, resulting in a 600 to
900 calorie meal replacement
drink. It’s important to
remember though that the key
to gaining lean muscle mass
goes beyond just consuming
massive amounts of calories.
Unless those calories take the
form of high quality nutrients
then you are going to do more
harm than good. |
