Hardgainer Meal Replacement Shake #1

I ran into this Hardgainer Meal Replacement Shake in a great book that I would recommend to you all. The name of the book was Men’s Health Muscle Chow by Gregg Avedon.

The great thing about this book was the fact that not only was it inexpensive but it provided over 150 meals that anyone could use to attain great bodybuilding nutrition.

As Gregg boosts this book is much more than a cookbook, it offers a solid foundation for understanding meal timing and the effects nutrients have on our bodies. I highly recommend and I’ll be writing a full review in the near future.

Anyway lets get to todays Hardgainer Meal Replacement Shake

Name: Malted Muscles

Ingredients:

1 cup of milk
1 cup cold water
4 tablespoons Ovaltine Malt
2 level scoops chocolate or vanilla whey protein powder
1 tablespoon Lecithin Granules
1 teaspoon L-glutamine powder

How to make it

Step 1 – In a 16 ounce bottle, combine all the ingredients

Step 2 – Shake well

Per serving: 430 calories, 50 g protein, 36 g carbohydrates, 4 g total fat

I really like this shake. Its easy to make and tastes great. I generally have this once a day as a snack or as a quick meal to go. Try it out and let me know how you liked it.

    Sounds delicious! And easy to make. I like to make up a whole lot of shake and sip it throughout the day. Makes maintaining a positive nitrogen balance a piece of cake!

    Thanks for the recipe.

    Thanks for the great recipe :) I will definitely try that this week after one of my workouts. One of my current favorite shakes is probably one that you have already tried but I like to mix the following ingredients

    -soy milk
    -peanut butter
    -chocolate whey isolate protein
    -L-glutamine powder
    -L-Arginine powder
    -a tiny bit of sugar
    -2 bananas

    When you mix this all together with your desired amounts of each ingredient it tastes delicious!
    I really enjoyed this post of yours and I will keep coming back for your updates :)
