CREATINE, GLUTAMINE, FURAZADROL, NE2, ORGANIC VITAMIN SUPPLEMENT, JAY ROB PROTEIN. JUST BECAUSE it doesnt have all the fake crap in it. and 1.5 gallons of water a day. im also Nasm certified. so i have a lil help on that end. my cardio is pretty solid 2 so i prefer to take a lesser break in sets to really get a nasty pump. im not always right or anything but i like my work outs =) obviously everyones body responds differently.
    I agree that it is very doubtful that you put 2inches on your arms in 3 months using just supplements without a cycle unless you are new to the game perhaps and have amazing genetic potential. However, it does not seem that way considering you have been training for 7 years and are "nasm certified" and still @ 18% bodyfat. Additionally, all those supplements you are throwing into your body are more than likely causing water retention. Creatine especially will cause this and in high doses causes the muscles cells to stretch and swell temporarily with water, one of the mechanisms by which it works.

    ok let me explain

    i never said i put on 2 inches of solid ripped hardcore lean gains =) . and i have been out of the gym for about 3 1/2 years =) so yes my genetics are quite good i used to be about 238 6% i stand with no shoes at a smidge under 5'10" and do some local amatuer shows. i put on roughly 16 pounds and the exact gains were 2 1/8 inches on my arms. so i guess it was a little misleading because i used to be much bigger and more lean. it wasnt newly aquired gains just my body simply kicking in the old muscle memory. It is possible i have cycled before yes . some of it was water retention obviously from the creatine as well. sorry if it was misstated it wasnt a 2 1/2 inches of lean solid mass. it was 2 1/8 exact and some water retention im sure.
