When i was into weightlifting, i'd take a shit load of supplements and powders like creatine, ECA stacks, beef liver tabs, nitric oxide, steroid precursers and some other shit.

now my goals are endurance, strength, and cardio. the only supplements i take are nutritional yeast, one of nature's most perfect foods, and just a multi vitamin. i'll also use some electrolyte powders when i sweat a lot. clean dieting plays the biggest role for me and i feel great without supplements.

what are some of the supplements you take and why do you take them?

i just took it in like pill form

i used it as directed it might be one pill at night and one in the morning. it says on the packet. regarding the brand i cant remmber but it shouldnt matter.

it took like a month to take effect.

the biggers difference was my knees.
when i used to bend them they would be creaky as fuck and make clicking sounds
now they are like silk.

glucosamine is an amazing vitamin to take. I do factory work and I am on my feet 9-10 hours a day. So i take 3 glucosamine pills every morning and it is an all day release. i actually noticed a difference after about 2 weeks.

The only other thing I take is a multivitamin, Cellucor M5, and Whey Protein shakes.

I was taking HMB for awhile, but I noticed no difference whatsoever.

That and if you decided to try Cellucor M5, it is expensive and after this cycle. I think I am done with it. I will look for something cheaper even though the stuff does help a lot.

Whey Protein and Creatine - basic supplements most athletes would use.

Plus I been working really hard to be like Chuck Liddell. So I have been swigging down IcemanRX with Nyquill.

On a serious note, anyone going to try it or have any idea of all they pack into it? Just wonder if it's goings to be a fad with his face on it or a long term supplement that works.

i dont know anything about who makes the product, but i think most of those supplements are a rip off.....most of them don't do a damn thing and are nothing more than high-powered marketing schemes. they may do a little bit for you if you're performing at a super elite level and need any extra edge you can get, but for guys like us, i think a proper diet, rest, and short but intense training sessions are 99.9%.

you shouldnt take testerone booster, i talked to my doctor about that. if you take test. booster your body will actually stop producing testerone on its own. say bye bye to boners

jarwillie

Yeah, and at the end of the day when you are just an average guy doing it for personal benefits like your health and maybe learning a new art/sport. There is no reason to pump your body full of shit that might hurt you when you are older and have calmed down a bit. Plus I still want to have raging boners.

I think that overtraining is the most common mistake that people make in weight training.

I make more progress in strength training at 3-4 times/week than I do at 5-6 times/week. People seem to forget that it is during the rest that the body builds the new muscle.
