Ok so my dad is about 6'0 under alot of stress lately and he weights about 150. Im about 185 and my dad is jus to skinny. He cant seem to eat alot so im gna get him a weight gainer and make him drink the shakes so he can look good again. What is the best i have general idea just want to hear recomendations. He's fairly active so i beleive that the extra calories will be helpful in gaining a couple of pounds. Thanks

Well like the old saying says 'if you wanna be 10 lbs heavier, you have to eat 10 lb heavier'- Something like that. He's going to need to eat more if he wants to gain weight. A weight gainer is fine but he can't be drinking it 3-4 times a day! Very expensive.

I recommend ON Pro-Complex Gainer or CytoSport Cytogainer.

Do the best you can to get your dad to EAT, it may be hard but I'm sure he can do it, unless any health problems come into play.

Also, make sure he takes the weight gainer correctly and has a proper training routine.

I know he has to eat more but he cant seem to get more than 2500 calories down and he needs to put on more weight. THank you i was leaning towards the On Pro-Complex and hed only take it once a day. thanks

Pro complex gainer is one of the best, it also taste great. True Mass also taste amaizing. Little more fat though.

One of my hockey coaches who is a personaly trainer told me this was one of the supplements that really does work and you will see reuslts. 60 grams on protein, jesus!

That's a lot, I'd probably take 3/4 the serving. I think all you need from a single shake tops is around 50. If that's still not enough protein, eat food. And some more food etc

Why is he stressed?

When I am under stress tend to sleep and eat less. If it's work related maybe he needs a new job or try and manage his stress better.
