What muscle supplements are the best?
Im 18 years old and I been lifting weights and doing cardio for about 5 years now. I played 4 sports in highschool. So I understand the dedication of working out and fast results don’t come. But I want to get ripped and increase my muscle mass rapidly. I really don’t want to go the steroid route. So I was wondering what supplements out there are the best to take to increase my rippedness, muscle mass and strength.
I would highly suggest starting with a Creatine and Beta-Alanine supplement. These two supplements combined can create tremendous results in the gym.
I say this assuming you are already taking a protein supplement such as ON Whey or Muscle Milk and that your diet is close to perfect for your intended goal.
Beyond Creatine, Beta-Alanine and Protein there is not much else that will increase your muscle mass. Any type of NO (Nitric-Oxide) supplement will simply dilate your blood vessels to increase the amount of nutrients your muscles are receiving.
I would stay away from Creatine Monohydrate if your looking to get ripped as it does cause bloating. I would go with a solid CEE product such as Controlled Labs Green-Bulge or if you have some money to spend look into Size-On which is one of the best Creatine Supplements on the market.
As for Beta-Alanine, it will increase your endurance in the gym leading to more reps and more muscle breakdown which is exactly what you want. Try Athletic Edge Nutrition’s IntraXCell. This is the best Beta-Alanine supplement that I have come across.

When you turn 21 and you have not achieved your desired results I would recommend looking into a halodrol clone if they are still around.

Whey protein powder and creatine. Everything else is junk – no matter what crap others tell you. I have never used creatine but I bulked up pretty big anyway through dedication. Hard work at the gym and a very disciplined diet.

you need to be eating 1.6 grams of protein per Kg you weigh. Thats the most important bit. in terms of supplements then creatine and amino acids especially leucine (building blocks of protein). however i prefer to just use protein as the supplement industry is not well regulated so suppliers can put things in that you are not aware of. they dont need to pass any testing it is up to people to show they are not safe.
