Frequently Asked Question

I can’t gain weight, what can I do?

For people with naturally lean body types, weight gain can be very difficult. Weight gain means your calorie intake needs to over-compensate for the energy you use. This is more easily achieved by eating six to seven smaller meals per day. This will ensure that your system is constantly drip fed nutrients for maximum efficiency while preventing the fullness and discomfort associated with large meals.

Your diet - that is, what you normally eat, even before you think about using any form of supplement - is critical. You must get enough calories by eating a wide variety regular foods (lots of wholegrain cereals/rice/pasta and breads, fruit, vegetables, lean red and white meats, fish, nuts and seeds, plenty of low fat dairy) - there are no shortcuts, and a protein powder won't help unless your baseline nutrition plan is adequate. You have to eat a really good breakfast, lunch and dinner every day, with healthy snacks in between.

Once your base diet is sorted, a nutrient-dense supplement such as Horleys LeanGain, Huge, or Elite Mass will help boost the energy density of your diet. These are formulas that can help provide extra carbohydrates, protein and nutrients in a convenient format. It is important that you add this on top of your existing diet and not eat less of other foods. Use it after you done some exercise and as a between meal snack. It may also be helpful to have a serving approximately one hour before you go to bed.
