hey all started hitting the gym and was wondering the best supplements to use for muscle growth and were to get them from

Ask Ryan Hudson or Cunningham!!

Depends what you're doing and how much and when you get protein in your diet as it is.

Powdered fish scales – you can get them from any good fish.

Lol

Just eat loads of food and get plenty of sleep.

Theres no substitute for a balanced diet blah blah blah.

Drop Cala Millor Rhino a PM, he'll be able to help.

I use Yazoo.

head down to suplymania in crossgates. Jay will advise you what you need to what your diet and program is.

Anabolic steroids are rather excitingly good.

Only when cycled correctly incorporating a good PCT.....so i'm told!

Over the last fifteen or so years I have attained weight gain by supplementing my diet with Chips, Pies and beer.

I once achieved similar results with beer, doner kebabs and chinese food. When I reduced my use of these substances the extra bulk fell away alarmingly quickly.

That's worrying.

Are these donor kebabs and Chinese food supplements available in health food shops?

As your just starting you dont need to look much further than a normal whey protein and a bit of creatine. I use myprotein.co.uk, cant go wrong, good stuff at a cheap price.

My brother used to swear by Creatine powder (I think Prolab was a popular brand but not sure if still is). Think places like Holland & Barrett is a good place to try.

They are, but many of the best of these health emporia are most readily accessed after normal pub opening hours.

The kebab shop near where I used to live did, in fact, have a poster on the wall which read:

"Try a chicken kebab: The low fat, healthy option."

True story.

Seconded on myprotein.co.uk very good site.

If you are going out to buy, there's no need to be paying the extra for maximuscle, you're only paying the extra because they spend so much on marketing. The quality is no better.

The important thing to remember is supplements are just that, supplements. No point i using them if your diet is shoddy or you do sweet fanny adams work at the gym.

don't just down a few protein shakes and expect to get big depending on your weight you're probably going to have to eat well in excess of 3000 calories a day of clean food.

I wouldn't bother with creatine. All that does is basically holds water in your muscles, as soon as you stop using it you'll end up looking massive, but not in the sense you're after.

If you're gonna use creatine, use a product by EAS called Phosphagen Elite, it mixes and tastes great and requires no loading process like the regular Creatine Monohydrate. You can see results after using it within 2 weeks.

As for a Protein suppliment or diet, if you are wanting to put on size I'd say have some kind of protein 3 - 4 times a day, morning, 1 hour pre training, after training, and again just before you go to bed!

If you want some discouted rates, PM me and i'll see what I can get you!

That won't put on size unless you are consuming enough calories alongside the protein intake.

I doubt someone will be taking in enough calories if they are only planning to consume protein 3 or 4 times a day.

What will the other meals consist of carbs and fat.

Just before bed, consume your protein with milk and a soucre of fat.

Have you met Calla, trust me, it works.

That said when you finish the last bit of everyone elses shake all day every day that helps too...

who in their right mind has protein shakes with milk?



and you are quite right, what i stated was in addition to a regular balanced diet, not instead of!

Milk provides a slow digesting protein before bed.

If you just have whey it'll be gone after 3 hours and your fibres will have nothing to feed off for the remaining 4 hours of sleep.

It depends on the guys bodytype.

Buut if he's ectomorph.........prepare to force feed yourself, you gon needs **** loads of food.
