a wrestling trying to put on weight. as a wrestling for 6 years i never once heard a wrestler wanting to put on weight. almost all the guys on my HS stayed in the same weight class all 4 years (some might have went up one maybe two weight classes). i used to play football around 205 and then would wrestling at 171.

like crazest said when you first start out try one shake after workouts to see how it works. thats what i have been doing and i have found that one shake is all i need

i've taken weight gainer for years
if you work out often or have a high metabolism or your very active
you can take it and gain good size/weight
but take to much and youll get fat(er)
i'd go about 2000 caleries
start off with 1 shake for a while
if you dont see any size adding go for two shakes
i do pre workout and post workout

so u guys r thinkin no weight gainer? cause right now im wrestling at 160lbs(end in 2weeks) but im normaly like 166-169 lbs natrually. i wanna get up to about 180-185 after the season. i only have about 9% body fat and i dont wanna put on fat/sloppy weight, i wanna put on solid mass. im pretty good with eating, my diet is clean,and i work at vitamin shoppe so getting supplements is no problem w/ the discount. you guys think i shuld just go with a ester creatine nd whey throughout the day and casein or a muscle milk at night would be better then supplementing a weight gainer in the morning or post workout? thanxxx

i wouldnt recommend weight gainer just out of personal experience, its not lean mass, its sloppy water weight, makes you (or made me) feel lethargic and unhealthy

ya i was thinking the same thing if 5000 means 5000 calories (which i think it might) then thats way too much. you might want to try something around 2000

i take a weigh gainer. mines a gnc 1850. its works well. but i have to watch what i eat because one of those shakes is like 3/4 of my calorie intake. if your wondering if a weight gainer is right for you then consider this. i take a weight gainer not just because im small (if you think 180lbs is small) but because i dont eat a lot and its hard for me to get the right amount of carbs and protein in my diet to keep me going. For example, when i try to get a lot of protein in my diet i overlook how many carbs im getting and i just wear myself out. and vise versa. so you should take a weight gainer (in my opinion) if:

you want to put on some extra mass (but you really dont specifically need a weight gainer for that)
if you have trouble balancing carb and protein intake
if you want more protein and carbs in your diet

also i wouldnt recommend you replace a lot of meals with a weight gainer because thats just too much for your body and it will all go to your gut. i would recommend taking it after workouts as like a post workout meal kinda thing because you get the protein your muscles need and the carbs that will fuel your body so u dont feel worn out as much

i really hope this helps
