Of course they do something. If they didn't, why would you pay for them?

The basics are

1) A good multivitamin
2) Whey Protein Powder
3) Glutamine

Whey is a high quality and fast-absorbing protein to help your muscles recover from workouts. Glutamine is good for your immune system and helps with post-workout soreness.

Creatine is good too, but it will make you gain some water weight, so don't try this stuff if you're going to have weigh-ins soon.

I would also recommend DHA/EPA, such as Omega Fatty Acid pills. They have numerous health benefits, including being good for your style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sifone.gifs.

Steroids. That's what the best guys use.

But that aside, you can't get size without gaining weight so you better forget trying to make that happen.

Hit the weights with a good training program and eat like a horse. As others have said, take in plenty of protein and get some creatine.

The idea here is to increase your walk-around weight so that all you have to do is cut some water before a weigh-in.

If you are going to put size you will need the extra weight, unless you already are overweight.

Try to include fish oils in your diet and plenty of greens man. Also the usual essential, drink plenty of clean water, i tend to drink between 3 to 4l daily. Also stop ALL fizzy drinks, event the diet versions are rubbish.

Make a log of what you eat and how you exercise each day; that will give you a solid reference database that will allow you to figure out what works and doesn't work for you.

Good luck man.

yeah take a good style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sifone.gif powder, when you get older your style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sifone.gifs get pretty messed up I also enjoy smoking style_emoticons/<#EMO_DIR#>/sifone.gifs

supplements can do alot for you, your body will naturally get rid of all teh muscle you work so hard to put on, supplements will help you keep your muscle mass even when you dont work out

well I am a solid 205 with a really low body fat and over 6'2 and can easily cut to MW with all my strength and endurence. did it for years wrestling.

If you are small for MW you will meet people like me, so really think about it before going up.

For actually training mma and stuff, No Xplode gives you incredible energy. If you're looking to gain strength, take a monohydrate creatine and some muscle milk.

the most important sups are:

multi
omega 3 fish oil & flax seed
whey protein
greens supplement


A good diet does more for you than any supplement.

I've just started using kre-alkalyn creatine and i find it works really well without adding too much water weight while still adding strength and muscle, which is nice so you know you're not just getting fatter . Also, i a solid protein works well. I recomend something with egg albumin added to it. I know I'm new to the forum but I'm just saying what works for me. I can't take creatine monhydrate cause I get really bloated and I get cramps in my muscles.

I take multivitamins everyday, Superpump 250 before i work out, & a whey protein after. It worked well for about 5 monthes, but i've kinda topped out in that i'm not getting much stronger anymore. Taking gigger helpings upset my stomach, anyone got recommendatons?

I take whey before and after i work out. Maybe try that. Also, I change my workout every three months. I trade between High Volume and High intensity workouts. Now I add in some powerlifting movements.
