Well, first off, I have never taken a supplement or anything in my life. I'm 17, I have been lifting for 1 1/2 years, I'm 5'10, 170 and I am reaching the point where I want to up my rate of growth, since my last football season is coming up in 8 months. So for 8 months I want to work my ass off, and I want to get some supplements that will help me out. I already considered the steroids , but I'm too young and not ready for that yet. I know nothing about supplements, so I was wondering what supplements should I buy, which ones are best for helping gaining mass, and strength. Also besides that, does anyone have a good diet program they could PM me maybe (not one to loose weight!)? Any help would be very much appreciated, thanks.
