what are some good weight gainers to take and when is the best time to take them, in bulking phase and weigh 162lbs want to get up to 200, not sure when to take it

Hey brother, the best on is the one you make.... try:

15oz milk or water
2 scoops protein powder
2 scoops peanut butter
1 tablespoon flax oil
1/3 cup oats

Blend it up and enjoy, tastes very good...

As for the time of day, doesnt really matter, just NOT post workout.

ag sounds good, I might have to try it, I wonder if any fruit would be good in it like raisins??

[YellowJacket]

Fruit is primarily comprised of fructose, which is a simple sugar and useless to bodybuilders as it fills liver glycogen, not muscle glycogen.

Is it better to mix water with the weight gainer to avoid the sugars in the skim milk? Is there anything else to mix it with that doesn't taste nasty?

N large by prolab is a good weight gainer, although I perfer good quality food over weight gainers in a bulking cycle.
