What OTC Supplements During First Cycle?

[Dangerdan]

I'm new to the boards and looking into beginning a cycle sometime in the next year or so. I'm 26 years old, 6'1, 200lbs with about 12% body fat. I have reviewed the Educational Threads and also looked over various other threads looking for a comprehensive answer to my question with no luck. I anticipate that I will probably be taking test only for my first cycle and I am NOT asking about the what AS to take during the cycle itself or what would be a good first cycle.

My question is basically what over-the-counter supplements would be recommend to take during a cycle (lets assume the test only beginner cycle)? I realize that this is a very broad question and I would apprecaite any advice from any of you experienced guys. Thanks in advance.

(I decided to post in this forum instead of the supplements forum as this question deals specifically with supplements to take during a cycle and I thought that this was the appropriate forum. Mods, feel free to move if you disagree).

Amino's and multie vitamins

Would taking additional otc supplements be hard on my liver or are they just not effective when on the AS? Also, what should I start taking after the cycle, pct phase? I have read on other threads that creatine should be taken post cycle to minimize losses?

Definitely use plenty of supplements, alot of guys think they can get away with a sloppy diet and lack of supplements but really Diet will be the number one factor on how much you progress with AS...protein, creatine, multi, and basic support formulas like cholesterol support, Blood pressure support, prostate support etc. and youll be good to go man

I was planning on keeping a good diet with plenty of protien and also supplementing my protein intake with shakes and bars as well as taking a good multi-vitamin. My real concern with taking other supplements was the possibility of extra stress on my liver?

Anyone else got an opinion on this?
