Weight Gainers

We often get asked why we have two weight gain products. The answer is pretty simple; we put together a special weight gain product to help my son rapidly gain weight after he finished a cutting cycle for bodybuilding competitions. He tried some of the weight gain products available at our local health food store but none of them worked.

Lean Weight Gainer: The product we put together for him had a much higher protein to carb ratio than any other product, and it also used very high end proteins (whey isolate & micellar casein) versus lower end (sweet whey and calcium caseinate). We also found that using waxy maize (a relatively low glycemic index carbohydrate) in addition to maltodextrin (high glycemic carbohydrate) was beneficial in terms of digestion. The formula worked well for him and we named this product our Lean Weight Gainer. Since formulating this product several years ago, we have received countless emails and testimonials from people telling us how good it worked for them, including 3 chemotherapy patients who took the product during their treatments and were able to not lose weight during treatment. To this day, I have not seen a product that would compare to this product in terms of effectiveness.

Hardcore Weight Gainer: To be honest, we put this product together as a “me too” product because we had all the ingredients. Unfortunately, when most people look for a weight gain product, they use Serious Mass as the standard and want the product to have about 1300 calories with 50 grams of protein. For this reason, we put together our Hardcore Weight Gainer. The protein to carb ratio is virtually identical to ON’s Serious Mass but ours is all natural, uses much higher end proteins and far fewer ingredients.

My advice: Hands down, our Lean Weight Gainer is a far superior product. However, the reason most weight products do not work is because you take in so much powder, they actually become a meal replacer. Weight gainers should never reduce your normal eating, if they do, cut down on the amount of weight gain product you are taking. Or simply create your own weight gainer by incorporating a little maltodextrin and waxy maize with your protein. This option not only allows you much more flexibility but also allows you to create a meal replacement (basically just maltodextrin and protein).

If you have not yet joined our Facebook group, we would love to have you join this group. I try to jump on as often as I can and many of our members are extremely knowledgeable and helpful. Conrad, my oldest son that I reference above, is getting ready to compete in the Teen National. You can see his weekly progress on this group as Aaron Smith helps him during the cutting phase with specific diet, posing, and body part sculpting. If you have any comments, concerns, or questions about any of our products or any other health related products, chances are someone in this group can help you out. This is also a good group to get fitness advice and also share your experiences. Feel free to add me as a friend as well.
