That's a hard question, its been 25 years, lol.
I remember taking protien powers, and some liquid aminos from a friend. However, I think the first "real" supplement that I ordered was acetabolan from muscletech. I was so mad I fell for the advertising, spent a bunch of money, and It didn't do crap for me.

This disgusting vegetable protein powder. I was 14-15, workout out, trying to lose weight, trying to get more protein, and wanted a protein powder. Actually, I REALLY wanted to try Hot Stuff. But my mom was freaking out about supplements and they may have steroids in them, etc. - so I finally got her to allow me to buy some "vegetable protein" because, you know, veggies are good for you.

It wouldn't mix with anything. It was just gross. She had no idea what she was putting me through. But, it was a good first step toward getting her to allow me to get whey protein, haha.

Twin Labs Ripped Fuel!!!!!!!!
Yeah me too!

I was an Ephedrine junkie back in the day when you could still buy it everywhere in the US. I remember taking a GNC product too which I think was just called Pro Ephedra.

Anyone remember the RTD Speed Stacks? I used to love those things!

I can't remember the name of the product but I think the first creatine I ever took was a liquid form that you dosed with a dropper under your tongue...pretty sure that was garbage hahah

A forgotten Weider product that came in a steel can that you had to open with a can-opener. Probably heavily featured Boron, Dibencozide(sp?), and Smilax. 80's.

Besides protein powder/weight gainer, it was probably creatine. I can't remember the brand, but it came in a big silver foil bag and they stressed to take it with grape juice. Also the solubility was crap and the loading amount was insane.

The old school muscletech cell tech with the a** load of sugar haha. I was just beginning and got supplement advice from an experienced lifter who I later realized wasn't too well informed when it comes to nutrition or supplementation

Some veggy protein, no flavor that time, it mixed like cement and tasted like sand. I was so excited that I actually liked it.

Years later that I held in my hand a shaker with it, couldnt even get it close to my mouth, smell was horrible! Of course I gave it back intact to its proud owner that was doing his first steps in the supplement world

I started reading the boards first. Did my research and bought a controlled labs stack. Green mag, white flood, and purple wraath (because everyone needed aminos intra workout back then). Got some now unflavored whey isolate and on casein (because you HAD to drink casein before bed).

I remember the first time I took white flood. I hit 135 on the bench. Thought I was a god, lol

Had to be a combo of muscle milk and N.O. Shotgun. I was in love with N.O. Double Barrel Shotgun. Lol.
Before that, it was strictly food. I thought all supps was cheating when I was a teen. Boy was I ignorant.

Aside from protein powder was creatine. 20gm a day mixed in a gallon of water for 8 weeks and gained 20+ lbs, dad thought I was on steroids. In all reality the fact I had just starred training seriously, was 17 and eating like 10 pbjs and a gallon of milk a day probability did all the work but for the sake of the the thread I'll credit it to the creatine lol
