If you had to choose 2 workout supplements what would they be?

**Indymuscleguy** · 10-18-2013, 02:20 PM

Ok,

So after talking with several bodybuilders from my gym, nutrition store, and co-worker I can clearly say there is a WIDE variety of opinions. Listed below is what I currently supplement with:

-Protein Powder (for obvious reasons)
-Flax seed oil
-NO pre-workout (5g)

Listed below is what all 3 consistently mentioned:

-Creatine (5g pre-workout)
-BCAA's (10g per day)

Thoughts?

Creatine from Germany ( Creapure )

the other i wud choose depending on what ur trying to accomplish ex recovery, energy, pumps ect.

if you have a decent protein you dont need BCAA cuz its included

Multi vitamins and fish oil would be my two if I was limited to just two.

Bump for more

For the purpose of "per workout only" I would go with Arginine and Citrulline.

supps period ( not including vitamins)
I would have to make it three:

1protein powder
2tuarine
3creatine

Hey buddy...I am running your protocol and found that Citruline didn't enhance the Cialis and L-Arginine. Thoughts?

Elaborate. What do you mean enhance?

I was only doing L-Arginine and 0.5mg Cialis BID...then read your protocol and added Citruline I didn't notice anything different, and actually I felt like the intensity was less

**kidrock29520** · 10-21-2013, 02:03 PM

Citrulline

No idea. Doesn't really add up. Unless what you're taking is of poor quality or low doses, it's actually physically impossible.

**Indymuscleguy** · 10-21-2013, 02:15 PM

Hmm I followed your protocol doses. I had trouble finding Citruline but found some at The Vitamin Shoppe. How would I know if it is a low quality of a particular OTC supplement? Cialis is real, no generic, L-Arginine is made by Body Fortress.

^ Try getting powder form. Beyond-a-century.com has the best that I've used.

How to know about quality... you just found out

Other way I do it is to use it alone for a few days (with no other amino acids) and then test my NO levels.

**kidrock29520** · 10-21-2013, 03:53 PM

I use TrueNutrtion. Great quality and great price in bulk ( 1000 grams for 50 bucks ).

**austinite** · 10-21-2013, 03:56 PM

Truenutrition is a great place with great products.

**Indymuscleguy** · 10-21-2013, 04:56 PM

Good to know

**Hustlenfitness** · 10-29-2013, 10:05 AM

Allmax bcaa
Animal rage pre work out

**Phoenix18** · 11-01-2013, 06:24 PM

I've been looking for a good site to buy bulk supps from. Ill check those two sites out thanks

**MajorPectorial** · 11-01-2013, 07:58 PM

My Bcaas and my L*citrulline. I do two back to back pre doses of the cit. 3-4grams each 20 minutes apart. gym being 10 mins after last dose.

I do however take a shake 5-10 minutes prior to taking first cit dose
And...
I also mix half scoop of creatine and 3 scoops (using small scoop from creatine) of msm crystals/powder for better collagen synthesis as get problems with my shoulder joints.
