Default When to take?

I take Serious Mass WieghtGainer, and Protien Shakes and was wondering the best time to drink them? I have a three-day split routine just to let you know.

Pre and Post workout shake. If you are trying to gain weight drink more inbetween meals, just make sure the shake aren't your whole diet. You need whole food.

Pre meaning before you work out. Post meaning after you work out. You want to drink a protein shake immediantly after you work out. You will also want to make sure you have at least 50gms of dextrose in that shake. You may have some in there already if you purchased a weight gainer. You could also mix it with grape juice.

You want the dextrose in the post shake. Adding it to the pre shake is optional. It depends on your goals.

If you are just trying to put on some mass, drink that shit at night right before you go to bed. In few months u will have a mass gainer belly Like Dr X said pre and post workout, and throw in half a serving at night too.

If you want to stretch out your weightgainer then try and buy some 100% whey as well. 70 servings is $38. Here's what I do. Serious Mass has 2 scoops in a serving. So just use one big scoop of that and another big scoop of 100% whey and mix them. This way you get about 50 grams of protein, roughly 150 carbs, and everything else that comes with both.
