[D.Rabon]

Really wanna increase my strength , only taking protein and some aminos , want some advice and some good strength gaining supplements

 

[titanman31]

Good old creatine mono

 

[R1balla]

staple supps, proper nutrition and training

for products, i love Prime for strength, but its a hit or miss product with users

 

[JudgementDay]

Formula-X/Division 1 combo gave me some nice strength gains

Creapure/Beta-alanine also is great.

check your training, nutrition first, and have a look for supplements.

 

[Ajerone]

What is your current diet like?

How long have you been working out for? What is your supplement experience?

 

[D.Rabon]

Thanks for the help
I been lifting about 3 years but am goin to be competing this year and need to increase my one rep max for the competitions, I try to eat a lot of chicken and beef and I have been cutting out soda and as much sugar as I can , any info on how I should be dieting?

 

[nergy]

what about your training ?

 

[D.Rabon]

I lift at least four days a week , usually two body parts a day , for example , chest and triceps , back and biceps , shoulders and traps , and legs , and jus recently I have been trying to increase my bench max so have been benching twice a week , my workouts usually last about an hour and a half

5/3/1 + neovar (creatine) + steaks, eggs & red potatoes

With the formula-x are u talking about a pill or a drink ?
If possible put up a site I can find the formula-x / Division 1 combo

Lol. I like this advise. Josh hit it right on the head. Good ol creatine (neovar is my preference 2) steak+eggs+potatoes and 5/3/1 all day. Could also add in a good pre workout if you find your energy or motivation lacking or just want that extra intensity in the gym.

Its a powder. You drink it.

It could be found here -> nutraplanet.com

Since Im only 18 every supplement place i goto tells me that i definitely dont need any testosterone boosting supplements ,
Do you think that it would still help me or could it possibly be harmful?

No need. They do not aid strength primarily anyway.

Good strength routine (5/3/1 or westside IMO) + creatine is the way to go.

Yup they are right, you dont need them.

Stick with creatine + food and you will be good.

Starting strength, 5/3/1, madcows 5x5, WS4SB or stronglifts 5x5 are all excellent programs and with the proper diet and consistency you will make great gains.

Again eat lots of red meat (steaks) and whole eggs. The only supplement I would suggest is creatine. Possibly some BCAAs or EAAs if you have extra money but you will make gains without them.

Okay Thanks , Money is not much of a factor just want to get some good supplements that will help me with strength gains . Sounds like a good Creatine is definitely the way to go . There are tons of different kinds and brands of creatine, Any input on a good creatine supplement(Preferably in pill form) would be very helpful

Im partial to neovar but any creatine mono product will be effective honestly

Make sure that your diet and training are completely where they need to be. If you need to add in supps here are my staples

1. Orange Triad
2. Gut Health
3. Creapure - the AX brand is phenomenal
3. Isology and Trutien

Done :bigok:

How much creatine should i take daily?

 

[nergy]

I think 5 grams post workout is enough.

 

[JudoJosh]

3g a day should be sufficient
