Hey everyone, I'm new to the site and had some questions before going out and buying some supplements to help me with some of my goals, which will be discussed later.
I'm a 19 yr old who used to way a whomping 250lbs back my Freshman year of high school. Ending that year I knew I needed to lose weight, so I signed up for the gym and went all most of that summer entering Sophomore year. Got down a few 20lbs less. Throughout that year and entering my Junior year I got down to 180-185 area. More lean muscle that bulk (picture below)..since that I kept my work out a little less and got into football my last year of high school. Gained that weight back into muscle, so after the season I was weighing around 195. I also did MMA so that helped me with cardio. For some reason though I'm not as cut as I used to be or any where near it. I now weigh 205lbs (last I checked was 4 days ago) I don't really like it at all. I do have the strength in me, but I'd like to get back down to the 185 area and loose my body fat. I never had it tested out so I don't know my %.
(Never mind I cannot add the pictures)
Anyways..I friend from work says he was taking a supplement NO2 and how he loved it and everything. I read up a few reviews from this site under a title called "no2 black powder" , but he took the capsule form which he mentioned lasts longer and what not.
I no longer do MMA because of the price and other issues. Last I ran 3 miles on the treadmill was 2 weeks ago and that was 1time for 3 days and then I biked 8miles on the 4th day. I still have the cardio, but the fat is a negative factor.
So I was looking around like I said and found a brand called NOW that has the ingredient of AAKG 3500MG for a lot less than the NO2. I was thinking of take that, with muslce milk before and after work outs. And take my fish oil like I do after my meals.
Ideal goal; Lose 10-15lbs and gain a good amount of that back in lean mass.
What do you think is best as far as supplements go?
If you're willing to help I'll find a way to send pictures of my before and after.
