We have many athletes who basically don't / can't eat enough calories to get to the weight that we would like them to be (ex. the 6'6 170 lb. basketball player). In these cases, we have them supplement with a weight gainer drink that I get from universal Nutrition called "Great Gains". It is quite affordable as I usually buy in bulk and make it available to the athletes at cost. Give them a call as their prices are always lower than the posted prices on their catalogs and website. They list the product @ $68 for the 11 lb. tub. When I buy it, they usually come out to around $35 per tub! (I usually buy at least 10 though....)

Ingredients.....
I don't have the athletes use this size of servings.....usually 3 scoops twice per day....
