Hardgainers, rejoice! Below are three calorie-packed recipes designed to help you build muscle fast.

NOTE: To perfect the flavor and make it as enjoyable as possible, add additional raw honey to your taste preference.
In addition, depending on the strength of your blender, you may need to add additional milk. This is because large smoothies require a jug when blending, not a cup, so adjust the ingredient quantities according to your blender size.
Moreover, the power of a blender also determines if it will pull all the ingredients down into the blades. So, if the blender is too weak, it might not be able to break up frozen ingredients or fully blend very large smoothies.
Therefore, the best way to perfect a smoothie’s taste and consistency, is to test and adjust as needed, according to your blender’s capabilities.
