Basic Supplements Mass Gainer in chocolate is a 6.8kg tub built for lifters who struggle to eat enough through food alone. It's aimed at hardgainers, high-volume trainees and anyone running a genuine bulk who needs an easy way to add calories, protein and carbohydrate to the day. Each of the 26 serves gives 1,030 calories, building a real surplus without another cooked meal. The same formula also comes in vanilla and cookie-n-cream.

How Basic Supplements Mass Gainers works

Muscle growth needs a real calorie surplus plus steady protein to keep muscle protein synthesis running. Basic Supplements Mass Gainer covers both from one serve, pairing 50g of protein with 190g of carbohydrate and around 1,030 calories. The protein side blends whey protein concentrate, whey protein hydrolysate and whey protein isolate for a fast amino acid hit, with milk protein concentrate and micellar casein digesting more slowly to keep amino acids available longer.

The carbohydrate blend follows the same logic. Maltodextrin raises blood glucose quickly to help drive insulin and glycogen refill, while sweet potato starch, quinoa powder and oat fiber powder release more gradually. Coconut oil powder, MCT powder and flaxseed oil powder add calorie density and essential fatty acids without a huge volume of food.

Why choose Basic Supplements Mass Gainer

The panel is what separates a serious bulking formula from a sugar-heavy filler. Basic Supplements Mass Gainer keeps added sugar to 8g per serve against 190g of carbohydrate, and delivers 100% of the daily protein value in one serve.

  • A five-source Glanbia protein blend (whey concentrate, whey hydrolysate, whey isolate, milk protein concentrate and micellar casein) instead of one cheap protein source
  • 723mg potassium (15% DV) and 330mg sodium (14% DV) per serve for training days
  • 26 serves at $193.45 NZD, under $7.50 a serve for a 1,030-calorie, 50g-protein hit

Total fat is 8g per serve (10% DV), with 6g saturated (30% DV) and 135mg cholesterol (45% DV). The formula contains milk and soy, worth checking before you commit to a full tub.

Getting the most from it

A mass gainer only earns its place if the rest of your week backs it up. Use it as one or two serves added to your normal meals, and let training and recovery put the calories toward muscle rather than bodyweight alone. If you're already running a protein powder, this tub is the version for days when food alone won't hit your calorie target.

Because the load here is high, it pairs naturally with training-day products. Stirring in creatine is common for lifters chasing size, and on longer sessions electrolytes alongside the sodium and potassium in the formula can help. Keep the tub sealed between serves to protect the blend.

Nutrition per serving. Per serving (4 scoops (265 g)): 13 g sugar, 8 g fat. Flavour: Cookie N Cream.

Mix 4 scoops (about 265g) with 240 to 470ml (8 to 16oz) of cold water and shake or blend. Have it post-workout, between meals or before bed to top up calories. New to gainers or watching how it sits? Start with half a serve and build up. Adjust the scoop count to match the surplus you are chasing.

Hard gainers, naturally lean athletes and anyone in a bulking phase who needs serious calories that are easy to drink. It is also handy for high-output athletes who need to rebuild size. If you already gain weight easily, a standard protein is the better pick. It mixes thick and smooth, more like a dessert shake than a chalky gainer.

How many calories per serve?

Roughly 1,030 calories in a full 4-scoop (265g) serve, with 50g of protein and 190g of carbs.

Can I take half a serve?

Yes. Halving the scoops gives you around 515 calories, an easy way to add calories without one huge shake.

Will it make me fat?

Only if you overshoot your calories. Use it to fill a sensible surplus alongside training and it goes towards muscle, not just bodyfat.

Can I blend it with milk or fruit?

Yes. Milk, banana, peanut butter or oats push the calories even higher for hard gainers who need more.

Is Basic Supplements Mass Gainer suitable for Kiwi lifters with a dairy or soy sensitivity?

No. Basic Supplements Mass Gainer contains milk and soy: the protein blend is built on whey and milk proteins, and the carbohydrate and fat ingredients carry soy-derived components. If you're managing a dairy or soy intolerance, this isn't the right mass gainer, so check the panel before you order.

Can I stack Basic Supplements Mass Gainer with creatine or a pre-workout?

Yes. The 190g of carbohydrate per serve suits holding creatine, since carbs support creatine uptake into muscle. Mixing a pre-workout in separately, rather than into the same shake, keeps the stimulant dose predictable. Both are common additions for lifters using this mass gainer to chase size and strength.

How is the protein blend in Basic Supplements Mass Gainer different from a regular whey shake?

A regular whey shake is usually one fast-digesting protein. Basic Supplements Mass Gainer uses five: whey protein concentrate, whey protein hydrolysate and whey protein isolate for a quicker hit, plus milk protein concentrate and micellar casein, which release more slowly, together delivering 50g of protein per serve.

Is Basic Supplements Mass Gainer worth it for New Zealand hardgainers who struggle to bulk?

For genuine hardgainers, yes. At 1,030 calories and 50g of protein per serve, it's an efficient way to add a surplus without cooking another meal, and the 26-serve, 6.8kg tub covers close to a month of training at one serve a day.
