im not a fan of any weightgainer...even the ever so popular nlarge. always have thought (even for the greatest ecto), taking regular protein powder and combing em' with rolled oats/dry oatmeal and essential fats (flax maybe or just pb) is the weightgainer you really should go for. also dont really need zma if your on a budget. better to spend that money on whole foods. (unless of course your coming off a cycle and need a test enhancer) Drop the glutamine....there is a great thread floating around here regarding board members views and experience with it whether on a cut or everyday use. Best supplement you can incorporate is to eat more. Pretty simple. I know you heard this before but its the truth. Vitamin C is see is missing. Livertabs been popluar when trying to gain mass/weight. but if you go that route, you probably can drop the multi. Supplementation is just one part of gaining and cutting. Change up your calorie intake and your workout outlook....get those three down, and you be good

Only extra C should be considered. Liver tabs contain enough fat soluble vitamins to hold you. Between them and your diet, you're getting more than enough. I wouldnt even opt for the C if you're jsut starting out. Never pay for a weight gainer, go to the nutrition section and myself and Supa Freak 420 have each posted killer bulking meal replacement shakes that you can make on your own for around $.40 cents a day. Calm down on the supps too if you're just starting out. Heavy weights and your diet will be the deciding factor in your overall mass gains. Supplements are just that, supplements to supplement your diet if its lacking certain items needed to obtain the mass you want. Whey protein powder, liver tabs, flax/hemp oil and creatine is the absolute most you need right now. If the $$ is tight, settle for protein powder until you can afford the others.

2 scoops natural peanut butter
2 scoops protein powder
1 tblspoon flax oil
1/3 cup crushed oatmeal
-Mix it all up with a hand blender it it actually tastes very good.....and will pack on the mass for sure. As for your diet, I will put in bold some changes I would make:

Unfortunately it is costs ALOT more than $.40![]()

Then maybe you should opt for the cheaper, generic oatmeal, PB, etc.
CROWLER said:
Oh cool so it DOES only cost you $.40 VERY COOL BRO>
I will go do the math and report back what I can find. I had never done the math before.
What kind of protein do you use?

Pro Rated 100% whey. $38 for 10lbs.
Dude, I go and buy everything I need for this shake (but the milk) in bulk and it costs me about $60 maybe a little less, but we'll go with $60. And It doesnt run out for seemingly ever. So if you average the total prices with the number of days until its gone, its about $.40-.45 a day.CROWLER said:HA HA ok I am a little slow.
I didn't realize you were joking with me. DUH.
The milk alone is $.30 So it is definitely MORE than $.40
Y/J bro you had me going there oh well.![]()

CROWLER said:
The protein and milk are $.70
You must only be getting like a half a shake or less a day.
I would recommend upping the amount of the shake you drink, but that is just my opinon.

indeed, why does it matter if this homemade mrp is 40cent (which YJ im sure just ball parked cuz its cheap and cost efficient) or a bit more. I doubt you are trying to argue about this crowler....its a good mix of fat, protein, and complex carb. So why try to prove its exact pricing. Just knowing its a much much cheaper meal replacement shake than any inferior brands chock full of maltadextrine and no efa's, is good enough for me. Bump on this mrp. (thats the first time EVER i used that word bump here or anywhere else)

Im not sure if you're being a smartass or if you're not understanding economics. The cost of living in WV differs greatly from that of Florida. Food here is very inexpensive. We have the highest poverty rate and highest unemployment rate in the country, things are very cheap here, especially food. I assume you, Im getting a full shake. Maybe not 1 everyday, but very often.

I understand now it costs more than $.40 so no biggy bro.
Didn't mean to come off sounding bad so I apologize if you took it bad.![]()
