Sport/Body Building supplements vol.who takes them

[uhhh ohhh]

To the people who actually exercise/workout/or train.

Currently training 5 days a week, on a 60/20/20 diet, and drink nothing but water. (endurance strength plan - 160lbs 5'6)

However, i started taking one protein supplement called probolic sr and it has done some great things. (not a fan of muscle milk aka cytosport or anything highin sat. fats)

One thing, i dont trust are the creatines, nitric oxide, or seperate amino acid joints ike glutamine (i guess it only works for certain people.)

Who here takes supplements and what are they and why?
I know most aren't fda approved but, what do you guys think about supplements, bad or good?
Is the protein supplement the only thing i should be taking for my plan? (i use it for muscle recovery)

lemme know!

 

[tkay dot]

uhhh... what?

 

[awash242]

All i use is GNC whey protein mix.

 

[the rat pack is back]

Optimum Nutrition Whey
Creatine Monohydrate

creatine is perfectly safe if you don't od on it.

if you take too much like 20 grams a day for several months straight then your kidneys can go bad.

5-10 grams of creatine on a workout day is fine.

a lot of supplements are harmless if used correctly, and they can provide you with some enormous gains...

Umm... actually, Purple was being serious. He actually lifts.

I use:

Syntha-6 Protein from BSN (Strawberry and Vanilla flavors)
N.O. Explode (half an hour before I work out)
Fish Oil
Milk Thistle (good for your kidneys after that creatine)

Alternate every other month with CellMass.

EDIT: Try BodyBuilding.com for your supplements. It's mostly a better price than GNC. But when I do get my stuff from GNC, I get it in the first week ofthe month with my Gold Card. It's about the same price as that website and if they're running specials, it's even cheaper sometimes.

Do you reread your stuff when you're done? None of that makes any sense at all. And I read it twice. Come on man.

Actually... it does because Fish Oil is a blood thinner much like aspirin. You really shouldn't go overboard with it. 6000mg sounds like a lot. I knowthe recommended dosage is anywhere from 2 to 5 grams so 6000mg is good, just don't do any more than that.

6 pills? Damn.
I take fish oil once in the morning, lunch, and after my workout.

yo has anyone tooken cell tech?
My boys $%!$@!+ bought the 4.5 lbs bottle for the retail price and is shook to use it and he said he'd give it to me for 10 dollars lol
IDK if i want to take it though bcuz it has 75 grams of sugar and I feel like that would make me fat.
I'm trynna lose fat by doing cardio and eating right but also maintaing my muscle weight.
I've lost 40 pounds and now i'm down to 210 standing at 6 foot 1.
but anyways do you guys reccomend it? how is it for those who have tooken it?

for the OP
I took N O explode for a while and it's a great product helped me step my weight up in evey excercise at the gym. Helps you stay focused and doesn'tlet you get tried so quickly and plus recovery time is faster on this product. I recommend it just drink a lot of water to keep your liver clean and yoursystem clean overall.

 

[duckdafraft]

Im on them HGH's so far Ive ripped 3 shirts just from breathing.

 

[brownin187]

Carmine..how can you assume someone doesn't work out? What made you think that?


^ As for No-Xplode...the original formula was dope. I still have a couple of tubs left of it. I find the new reformulated stuff is all caffeine. In bothcases I found my body to get use to it too fast. The pumps diminish substantially.

I'm dying to try some stuff from Controlled Labs. How's Purple Wrath...Purple Face..

I don't do ANY cardio at all and I eat like a beast.

I wouldn't say I'm "cut" but you can definitely see muscle definition in me. As a matter of fact, ever since I've loaded on Cell-Techand got off of it for like a week, I lost weight more than anything. I think it was all the water weight I lost. I dunno though cuz everybody's bodies aredifferent.
