Basic Tips To Make Your Own Weight Gainer

By Ricardo d Argence

As you may already know, weight gainers can be incredibly expensive so if you intend trying to put on a lot of weight in a relatively short time frame, then you should seriously consider making your own weight gainer.

For the most part, weight gainers are obtained from stores which sell supplements and other nutritional products. Such weight gainers are designed to enable you to gain considerable weight in order to have the muscle mass you want.

The important thing to remember is that not all weight gainers are designed for the same person. 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 really skinny then you need to add meat to the bones first and then the muscle mass.

For those who would like to save some money, you can simply make your own weight gainers because contrary to what you may have heard, it's easy to do. Undoubtedly, the most important thing to remember is protein.

Of course, as you can imagine, some weight gainers are of a superior quality when compared to others. Generally speaking, those weight gainers which contain isolate whey powder are considered to be the best, followed by those containing regular whey powder, and finally in third place, those containing Soy.

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.

Carbohydrates are without a doubt one of the crucial things you need to take into consideration when you make your own weight gainers. Essentially, the majority of your carbohydrates should come from maltodextrin simply because it helps to restore the body's glycogen stores.

You need to avoid weight gainers which contain large amounts of sugars or fructose. In fact, sugar content should be as low as possible or else you could find yourself suffering from fatigue, headaches, and on many occasions, even a severe bout of the shakes.

You can be rest assured that if you want to save money and you want to gain weight, then you should go ahead and start making your own weight gainers at home.

In order to do so, you'll need to blend together the finest protein and maltodextrin. Both of these can be sourced and purchase from the vast majority of shops selling a range of nutritional supplements. Furthermore, raw oats which can be found in most grocery stores are ideal for mixing with shakes. This is essentially because oats do a great job at slowing down the rate at which carbohydrates are burnt. This of course means that the shake lasts longer because you're adding more calories to the drink.

Be advised that one should ideally be drinking your shakes directly after your workouts. Also, you may want to add more calories in order to have a higher fat intake. The reason for this being; it will cause your body to digest the shake slower and as a result it will take more time for the nutrients to be distributed to the various muscles. In order to increase the fat content, simply use things such as peanut butter, oils, and of course, nuts. - 17274
