i usually us optimum nutrition, but this seemed like the same thing and has alot of calories and carbs in it. or is this just some cheapo weight gainer product?

stick with ON, although the difference is marginal and it's more important to have a complete diet and a complete training regime. bulk shakes are bulk shakes.

edit - as in: eggs! beef! tuna! nuts! vegies! the protein in bulking powders is usually second rate from all kinds of weird sources as pointed out below. whereas i believe ON is 80% straight whey concentrate/isolate

eh...its pretty expensive and I think everyone would agree that real food is better for gaining then shakes. Its not whey and from the looks of it, it lacks artifical sweeteners (which probably isn't good) and you need four HEAPING scoops. Uck...way too much powder.

Do Carbo Gain. Or some other dextrose product thats cheap.

it doesn't say what's actually in it, and i can't find anyone who does. ignore it. use the expensive stuff for straight up protein, not 'weight gainers' full of unidentifiable proteins, carbs & fats.

edit: finally found the ingredients. do you really need to put any of this crap into your body? Half of it doesn't even make sense, and it contradicts claims made elsewhere (like 'no artificial sweeteners')...
