How to Create the Best Weight Gainer for Your Needs

By Ricardo d Argence

It is known that buying weight gainers can become very expensive. If you are underweight and wanting to amass some weight, you can make your own. It is very important that you have a full understanding of the nutritional information and finding out exactly what you need to know so that you can gain the correct amount of weight.

You can buy weight gainers at nutrition or supplement shops. They usually have a picture of a bodybuilder or an arm full of muscle mass. Weight gainers serve the purpose of letting the person gain weight to achieve a level of muscle mass that is desirable.

Every person is different and should use an appropriate weight gain product. For example, a bodybuilder has the weight they want but they are working for more muscle mass to what they already have. If you are truly slender then you have to add some bulk to your physique first and then muscle definition.

If you want to save a bit of money and make your own weight gainer you can. It is easy to do and most likely best for your body type anyway. One of the most important things to consider is protein, some weight gainers have a higher quality protein than others and you want to get the best you can.

Isolate whey powder typically has the best ranking while plain whey powder ranks lower. Soy is even lower than the two. This is in terms of the quality of the protein. A very high quality protein you might consider adding to your weight gainer is Casein, this product is best for slowly digesting and not for rapid consumption.

You need to pay attention to the carbohydrate breakdown when you are planning your own weight gain regiment. The glycogen storage in your muscles will be best refilled if your carbohydrates primarily come from maltodextrin.

When you're using a weight gainer, you should never use one with a high amount of fructose or any kinds of sugar. It is important that the amount of sugar remains low as it can lead to fatigue and headache with the possiblility of jitters.

The best thing you can do as someone who wants to save money that needs to gain weight quickly is to make a weight gainer at home on your own. This is a really easy process you can do. You will need to mix the best quality protein with maltodextrin. These can be found at your local vitamin or supplement shop and even a grocery store. Raw oats are the best solution to mix with to make a shake, they are effective to provide for slow burning of the carbs so the shake lasts longer and you are adding more calories to the drink.

After working out is a great time to down your weight gaining shake. You can add more calories and have a higher fat intake. Your body will slowly digest the shake, hence you are able to get the nutrients to the muscles over a longer period of time. - 17274
