supplements what do you take and where do you get them?
09-01-2013, 02:40 PM
Taking:
- Whey
- Creatine
- Multi Vitamin
- Fish Oil
Thinking of buying:
- Zinc or ZMA
- BCAA's (Amino Acids)
- Dick pills
Not sure what to take though or if I need any other supplements really. I wanted to take zinc for the testosterone boost, skin health and also the fact that I'm going to College soon and will be drinking more than usual which lowers zinc levels. Problem with just zinc alone though though is it will lead to a copper deficiency. While ZMA is known to cause acne issues (however zinc by itself helps prevents acne.
As for BCAA's (Amino Acids)... my whey protein does contain BCAA's, but I don't think it is enough.
As for penis pills (stuff like ginseng, maca, horny goat weed, argnine etc) - I wanted something that doesn't have side effects, and also a lot of them do similar things and I never know which to go for! If it is good for bodybuilding as well as for sex, then it is an added bonus.
Maybe someone could help me out? Not even sure if I need any new supplements. I find it kind of like a mini addiction to always want to buy a new supplement.

Arginine makes you quite jittery, just a heads up. Unless I had a hard workout ahead of me it was a bit too much, and I actually like the jitters. Not worth the sexual benefit IMO. It does, however, help your gym performance. You will have 2-3 more reps per set than normal, and they will be better quality.
ZMA is whatever, I get really good results from Zinc alone and its cheaper. Lots of morning wood and relentless horniness. D3 seems to boost my overall test levels as well. I havent had experience with hornygoatweed or maca unfortunatley.

Opti-Zinc 40mg
Magnesium 400mg
Vitamin B1 100mg
Fish Oil 1000mg
Take each once a day. Been doing it for about a month now. Am noticing that I am getting better sleep, as well as being able to recall dreams almost every night. Take all of them during dinner.
Should I continue to take these during dinner or should I switch these up to the morning?

I just found a new box of Mex-Rx and a tub of Syntha-6, but they are two years out of date. Would you guys take or toss?

Costco multivitamin for men. It has most of the chemies already discussed in supplement related threads.
Fish oil.
Costco protein powder.
Cheap and sustainable habit. Also I don't see the point in taking too many vitamins if I'm eating relatively balanced.

I've started supplementing only three things,
Magnesium
Vitamin D (Will stop once summer hits since I work outdoors)
Fenugreek
Magnesium has just helped my body generally, especially with some breathing problems I've had. I've also found it helps with my libido which is awesome. I'm not certain about the science as to whether or not magnesium helps with testosterone or not, but the libido boost does appear to occur when I'm cycling magnesium.
Vitamind D if you're not outdoors much, helps bring your T levels back to normal. Generally a good maintence supplement.
The latest supplement I added though that's shown promising results is fenugreek.
Fenugreek boosts your t levels. The entry level research on fenugreek has found evidence that fenugreek boosts testosterone, and the best part is that fenugreek is cheap. I took it for a couple days, not remembering I took it - I put all current vitamin stacks I take in a seperate bottle so I can take them with my morning breakfast, but I only take one each and they're all different, and I forget I added fenugreek to the stack. By the second day, I started being a lot more outspoken I found myself talking to people without thinking about it much, and I felt motivated to want to lift even. In addition, I found my libido increased a lot more. Also, I've had to shave my beard more, my beard and hair has been coming in a lot quicker, I'm not certain if this is related to the supplement or not, but it's been noticable.
All in all, that's my basic stack,

I drink lots of teas made with gynostemma and/or ginger and/or chaga mushrooms and/or cat's claw and/ or pau d'arco, etc. Although, I don't consider these "supplements."
I also drink bone broth, every day, made from bones of grass-fed cows. We let that shit go for 24 hours or more.

Is there a problem with taking too many supplements? Like does it over work your body to process them all? I am taking a few, seems like there are so many you could take. I wonder if taxes the body. Thanks.

-ACV & Raw Honey with hot water before bed. Google 'Seth Roberts raw honey improve sleep'
-Vitamin D (5,000-7,500 IUs per day). Feel much more awake and horny.
Coming up:
-Astaxanthin: when I go the DR. Helps prevent sunburn.
-Zinc: after reading the threads on here.
I get most of them from Amazon.

I'm a slender guy: 5'11 @ 150lbs.
About 1.5 months ago I started working out on Victor Pride's "Body of a Spartan" 4 day work out regime and I am already starting to see results.
On days that I work out I take a two scoop serving of Muscle Milk when I wake up in the morning, and after I work out in the late evenings. I haven't really put on any fat but I have put on a little muscle.
In terms of supplements, I started taking 4 grams of fish oil and 5,000iu of D3 per day around 1.5 months ago. I have also recently purchased an Omega J8006 juicer and have been juicing about every other day. Carrots, beets, peaches, apples, celery, grapes, oranges, all sorts of greens, swiss chard, kale, etc.
I have to admit I feel fucking great and I really think my cognitive ability has gone up somewhat. It's like my memory is sharper and I just think clearer.
My question is: I'm trying to introduce healthy habits and supplements incrementally. I'm ready to add another supplement to my regime but I'm not sure exactly what I should get.
I'm thinking either a green tea extract or a multivitamin. Perhaps zinc?
Does anyone have any recommendations?
Like I said previously, right now I'm doing: fish oil, vitamin d3, working out, muscle milk on exercise days, and juicing.
For anyone that is looking for a great place to start, I totally recommend anything that I have just mentioned. I feel fucking great.
Any tips are greatly appreciated.

If you're feeling fucking great with the regimen you're on right now, don't change a thing.
You always want to find the simplest possible regimen that leaves you feeling great. The more things you add the more potential there is to mess up one way or another so if the basic regimen you're on is getting it done for you, there is absolutely no need to add anything.

Creatine, whey protein (mass gainer), casein protein, glutamine, and a multi-vitamin.

I have been dosing up on the creatine for the last few weeks.
I suspect it is fucking up my liver or something.... When I go out drinking now, I get drunk in about half the time I normally would.
Is this common knowledge? does anyone else have similar problems?

I believe that's the second time you've done that.
Victor pride is highly respected here. Why are you giving awau his flagship product?
