Im just wondering what kind of supplements I should be taking. Right now im taking syntha 6 protein, N.O Xplode, and a mulitvitamin. For the most part I take no xplode right before my workout and 46g of protein right after my workout. Any suggestions?

You have the basics w/ your protein but if you want you could add in waxy maize, and bcaa's.

syntha 6 has fats which arent good for the post-workout time period, not to mention the high cost of BSN supps

I'd go with a low fat protein and a carb blend for maximum glycogen restoration

Optimum just came out with a post-workout formula with waxy maize and hydrolyzed whey

Optimum and TP are my two primary sources for supps. Great quality products.

There are hundreds of supplements

I would add extra vitamine C
Invest in a quality vitamine
Taurine
Magnesium and zinc citrate
Creatine Ethyl ester, or any other one on TP

first...i would drop all BSN products as i think supp. lines similar to that are not capable of being trusted (as BSN did just get sued) as theya re in it for the money, not to make a quality product to help you, the bodybuilder.

therefore,

stick to the basics


PROTEIN- Whey Protein Isolate for PWO, maybe a Casein/Miscellar or TEAM Skip formula for slower digestion, or Gemma Protein.

Carbs- Waxy Maize...or Dextrose. pref. WMS.

Supplements- BCAA's, Glutamine, Creatine (mono., ethyl-ester, tri-malate)

others- Fish oils are great and inexpensive, Beta-Alanine is an option worth considering but not a necessity.




Personally, in my opinion, if you aren't rolling in dough and you are going to be spending all of this money on supplements, i think you should be investing most of your money on quality food for yourself.
