Buy a generic brand for protein and don't use weight gainers. Eat more potatoes.

McDonalds

You're talking about whey, right? I can't find it online for less than nine, $10 a pound.

Mainly weight-gainers. I'm constantly worried I'm not getting enough calories.

That's an alright deal.

Meet up with other dudes in the locker room. Give them the look, and if they wave you on, there's usually a black market dealer in one of the stalls. Be cool and you'll be set

Honestly I wish I had to cut. Being an aushwitz-tier shrimp fag all my life is terrible. No muscle strength or definition. It's not hidden away because there is nothing to hide.

I'm literally a skeleton.

>>36313395
FUCK that. Beans are $1 a pound.

>>36313340
buy pea or soy protein, it's half the price or less online.

for mass gainer just add oats.

When it comes to protein/mass gainer shit more expensive doesn't mean better. There is zero regulation of that industry, some brands have some nasty shit in them and some jack up the price for no reason whatsoever. First off, don't bother with hydrolyzed whey, it won't make a difference unless you're a professional bodybuilder and depending on the brand as little as 10% of it can be actually hydrolyzed. Marketing nonsense.

I get whey isolate from myprotein.com, 90% of it is actual whey. No suspicious shit. Biotest from t-nation.com is also good. For additional calories I stuff the smoothie with other things like milk, peanut butter, oats, bananas, nutella, etc. You can get well over 500 calories in a delicious 20oz shake no problem using regular foods.

I Bought the cheapest mass gainer they had at the pharmacy and it was still 30 fucking dollars.

I'll check myprotein.com though.

Last time I checked, powdered/dried milk (available at most every grocery store) is cheaper per gram of protein than leading brands of whey. Not sure how it stacks up in fat, but if you're trying to gain weight I can't imagine it's worse than commercial whey products.

Do GOMAD. It helped me gain a lot of weight and coveres your protein too. Can get expensive though i suppose.
Weight gainers are also usually full of sugar and other shit you dont want. All the ones i tried also taste like crap.

I'm lactose so I don't want to even think of the disaster my intestines would go through with GOMAD.

GOMAD

My protein has unflavored deals for under $7 and flavored junk for like $4.50.
