I'm trying to gain a few pounds over the next few months, so here's what I'm doing:
Every night before bed, I make a homemade weight gain shake.
Shake Protein
Nerdy Weight Gain Shake.
16 ounces cold water
2 scoops protein powder (chocolate)
2 ounces of half & half
1 raw egg.
Totals
Calories: 520
Protein: 83 gram
Fat: 13 grams
Carbs: 5 grams
Why do I call this a "nerdy" weight gain shake? It's because I use MATH (gasp!) every week to change what goes in the shake.
You'll notice I'm only using 2 ounces of half & half cream and only one egg.
There's a reason for that.
Because the first week I start taking this shake, I gain weight with just 2 ounces of half & half and one raw egg.
But inevitably, progress slows. And when I stop gaining weight, I simply adjust the ingredients in this shake.
Instead of 16 ounces of cold water and 2 ounces of half & half cream, I'll do 14 ounces of water and 4 ounces of half & half cream. Plus I'll add an extra raw egg.
That should be enough to get the scale moving again. But if not, I'll just keep increasing the amount of half & half cream, and adding more eggs to the shake. (Honestly, you can't even taste the eggs.)
There you have it:
A nerdy weight gain shake. This is perfect for anyone who needs to gain muscular weight.
Ideally, to build a muscular physique you need to calculate your weight at 3 pounds of bodyweight per inch of height.
So if you are 6 feet tall (like me), that is 72 inches tall. Multiply that by 3 and you get 216 pounds. Which means a guy as tall as me needs to weigh at least 216 pounds to look muscular.
If you need to gain weight and build muscle to hit your target number, try this shake.
