I'm looking for a high calorie mass builder. I want it to taste good and not be ridiculously expensive. Any suggestions? Also, I should I be taking it? I was thinking pre-workout and as a snack between lunch and dinner. (i already have huge lunch with ****ton of protein and protein shake right after workout)

Is there a difference between whole milk and skim milk when it comes to building muscle mass? Is doing GOMAD with skim milk the same as say with 2%?

You won’t prevent fat gains by drinking fat free or skimmed or half-skimmed milk. It’s the carb content in milk that causes fat gains by spiking insulin. Drink whole milk.
* Calories. Half-skimmed/skimmed/low fat milk makes you lose 400/800/1000kcal per day. You’ll have to make up the difference in food, which will be hard since milk already fills your stomach.
* Saturated Fat. Whole milk tastes better since it’s rich in saturated fats. These increase your testosterone levels (muscle building hormones).
