Hello all, im looking for a good weight gainer, something that mixes easily without a blender. Any recommendations?

just get a regular whey protein supplement and add your own ingredients - oats, berries, healthy oils, almond/peanut butter, etc.

Most of you supplement your diet with some form of a shake. I’ve designed some very basic shakes that can be used if you are trying to gain some muscle. Give them a try and see for yourself if they help add some variety from your diet.



- Maki’s Muscle Mass Formula

These two shakes are great if you don’t want to waste a lot of money on a weight gainer. Most of the ingredients can be found lying around your kitchen. If not, you can buy them in bulk for a very cost effective price. I tend to use these shakes post workout.

1 cup of milk (skim or 1%)
1 banana (5 ounces)
