Tips on Weight Gain Powder usage?
I'm 14 years old weighing in at 44.5kg and I'm currently on GNC's Weight Gainer 1850. At the moment, I'm taking a cup of powder with a cup of soya bean milk. Instead of consuming the powder in one shot, should I split it up so that I take half a cup in the morning and half a cup before I go to bed? Or a cup in the morning and another before going to sleep? And if I'm going to the gym to workout, should I have already drunk the powder or should I wait till my workout's over? And I've also heard that Weight Gain Powders stunt a teenager's growth. I'm 162 cm and have not observed any height increase since at least two months ago. Weight Gain Powder usage started two months ago. Any clarifications on this issue? Thanks.

you're doing the right thing now... if you're trying to gain weight I suggest taking half before and half after for the time being... if you're not getting the gains you want try a little more with each serving to your liking. Be sure to eat that after-workout protein shake with some carbs (some simple, some complex). The protein needs carbs in order to repair the muscles.
You're well on your way (and it won't stunt your growth).

if you are trying to gain MUSCLE then i suggest you do the following...take one cup in the morning, two cups after your workout and one before bed...your body needs the the extra protein....1 gram of protein per pound you weigh...i don't know what that is in KG....anyways, it doesn't stunt growth....
and if you want cheaper supplements and fast shipping (way better than GNC) go to bodybuilding.com
i suggest you invest in the 100% whey protein and BSN cellmass....drink lots of water and remember
EAT BIG, LIFT BIG, SLEEP BIG, GET BIG.

Split it up into 1/3. Your body will assimilate it better thruout the day.
Also take the 1/3 within 1 hour after you workout to speed up the recovery process from the workout.
