Mass Gainers Vs Weight Gainers

Mass gainers and Weight gainers are not synonyms but most of the time many people mistake them to be the same thing but it is not so.
Mass gainers don’t want to just gain weight. They want to gain pure muscle. That is why mass gainers use a specific macro-nutrient formula meant to feed the muscles for growth and deter fat accumulation.

Weight gainers are usually used by undernourished people to gain weight. They have much more carbohydrates than a mass gainer. There are usually more calories in a weight gainer supplement as well.

Benefits of Mass Gainer

Mass gainers have very high calorie content per serving. And we know more the calories more is the  energy level and more will the capacity of muscles to lift then more will be the growth.You can lift weights all day long you can not grow them until you feed them properly. So we can say muscle come to those who feed them.

2. Macronutrient Content is balanced 

All the macronutrient are in a perfect balance in a mass gainer. As it is scientifically proven that our diet must have the macronutrients i.e. Carbs: Fats: Proteins in the ratio of  2:1:1. For those who don't understand the concept of ratios it means that if you take a 200kcal diet then it must have 100kcal of carbohydrates, 50kcal each from proteins and fats. And most mass gainer have exactly this proportion.

You can take at any time of the day. But i personally prefer to take it post-workout as at that time my body need it the most because of depleted energy levels.and if i don't use it at that time than my body will start using my muscle tissue for energy.

Some prefer to take it as breakfast and it can be a perfect meal replacement for those who don't have enough time to do breakfast. So to save time they can it. You can take it at any time of day according to your preference.
