Gainers suck, all sugar.

I drink over half gallon of whole milk a day. Working on getting more.

My homemade weight gainer is 2 skewpz protein, 10 oz whole milk, 1 tbsp olive oil, 6 oz coconut milk... About 900 calories. Currently on a daily basis I am at about 3900 cals of generally healthy food.

This is my diet for the most part. Should be logged for saturday http://www.myfitnesspal.com/food/diary/eskaja90?date=2013-10-05

 

I kinda agree with him. Before I started lifting, I was 140 lbs and 8% bf. I looked like a fucking telephone pole. Now, I'm 195 (as of this morning) and ~15% bf and can actually lift a telephone pole haha. I don't like the IIFYM completely, although if it's around 5-6 PM and I'm not close to my daily macro intake, I'll eat a pizza or a cheeseburger or something to boost my cals. I don't do this more than once a week though. On a normal day, I eat clean and every 2-3 hours, so I don't have to worry about cramming junk to hit my calories, but on college football Saturday, I start eating the shit haha

 

Y u post facebook links? U no I no haz...

 

ON Serios Mass...been taking it for years



Not low in sugar, but nothing close to being 'all sugar'. It's also won numerous awards from BB, IFBB, etc. I know, awards aren't everything, but from someone who's been on the shit for almost 3 years, I'd have to say it works. Now True Mass and all that other crap, I don't know about b/c I only use ON for my supplementation needs, which is just protein and creatine haha. Fuck BCAA's, ZMA, amino acids and all that other crap...not saying they don't work, but they're not getting my money!

 

Another ON product that I have used in the past, I love this stuff.

 

I may have to try this. Too bad every 2 weeks I'd go broke buying that stuff (how $$ is it?) too lazy to google

 

10 lbs 65 bucks 28 servings.

Hmmm very interesting concept.

 

So, from what I can tell, Pro Gainer is like a 'higher end' version of Serious Mass, but with less calories per serving?

I can see it's got more protein, but less calories and carbs, so it's probably better for a lean gain, whereas Serious Mass will add muscle, as well as fat, which I'm fine with. I've always wanted to try Pro Complex, but since it's $20 more than Serious Mass, they can keep that shit haha.

EDIT: I meant to reply to KodiakToyTrD on this. My bad.

 

Now that's the answer to my prayers. I HATE prepping meals. It doesn't really seem that expensive, either. I might have to try it.

 

Well considering the fact that Pro Complex has 28 servings for 65 bucks and Serious Mass has 16 servings for 44 bucks...I'd say Pro Complex is the better deal all around.

 

dude, i see at least 2 more days you could add chestnbis....don't be a pussy!

 

That's what I was just looking at. I love my Serious Mass, but I go through 12 pounds in half a month. That's around $100/month. I might have to look deeper into this haha

 

I know...I've really been slacking. I think all those late nights hanging with this dude are making me tired:

I'm gonna order me up some and see what's up.

 

The ONLY downside I could find was the pricing. 14 meals for $100 would last me about 2 days haha. I guess it's all on how one values their time. For me, I HATE prepping meals, but hate spending money even more, so I'm gonna stick to prepping my meals haha. It's a genius idea though!

 

Get the Chipotle Bowl, buy your own wraps and bam!

 

Well, after doing a lot of reading about the differences between Serious Mass and Pro Complex, I stumbled upon a bb thread where a bunch of dudes were talking about making their own weight gainers...cheaper and cleaner than stuff we buy. I wrote down a lot of the recurring ingredients from some of the recipes: whey protein, milk, peanut butter, oats, banana, cottage cheese, honey, olive oil, and greek yogurt.

When I run out of my Serious Mass in a few weeks, I'm gonna try it for about a month and see if I get the same results.

 

Never been to Chipotle. What's the bowl?
