Going on vacation and having a seperate bag for supplements?
Its just funny to me.What's their to feel weird about? I'm sure things are less roomier, but that's it. Unless people know you're caring a whole bag of supplements around and are staring at you for it. They're jealous of your physique, perhaps? I did the same thing when I was just going to the gym, so I'm sure I'd pack a bag for going on vacation. You need what you need.
LMFAO.My mom thinks all supplements are steroids, no matter how much info I give her, so I always feel sorta funny carrying my steroids around. Especially on vacations, it's that "disappointed mom" look that gets me!
I know how that can be. My mother just worries about Ephedrine, because of what we've all heard in the news about a lot of pro athletes. But, it's those who use irresponsibly that make things difficult for the rest of us. It's my father that I have to worry about. He's very old-fashioned. He also thinks he knows everything. He told me that I don't need supplements, they're a waste of money, blah blah blah. I just ignore him, lol. My stepfather, on the other hand, used to be in the military and he was pretty big into bodybuilding. He's for it, but he just wants me to be careful.My mom thinks all supplements are steroids, no matter how much info I give her, so I always feel sorta funny carrying my steroids around. Especially on vacations, it's that "disappointed mom" look that gets me!
I used to have to bring a backpack and a couple of plastic bags with me when I went to the gym. I have yet to pack a duffelbag though, lol.Its just funny to me.
You ready yet???
Me -- "Yeah, Big bag for clothes, medium bag for supps, small bag for cologne and monster mastering elements"
Notice the medium bag has my **** in it...
Protein and Creatines are a ***** to get out of a plastic bag. Not to mention if that **** rips...I used to have to bring a backpack and a couple of plastic bags with me when I went to the gym. I have yet to pack a duffelbag though, lol.
No joke. I came home one day, and she had my Walmart cheap ass Equate multivitamins in her hand. She immediately looks at me and says, "Are you using steroids!?" I was like, "Uh, mom, those are multivitamins..." She then tosses 'em to me and says, "I bet!" and then walked away and didn't talk to me for the rest of the day! I'm pretty sure she's going through menopause. :rant:LMFAO.
Multi-Vitamin steroids.

Even if you had steroids, parents just never listen anymore and they don't give you a chance to explain a single thing. They focus on the negatives, that's all. Not the positives. Let her think/say/do what she wants. You're gonna do what you want anyways, regardless of what she says. Besides, you're 21. My parents have been putting up with me doing whatever I've wanted for the past 20 years, so they don't really bother with lecturing me much.No joke.

I need a new shaker cup. My other two leaked. I need a pill box, too. The mini blender sounds nifty. Where'd you get it?Protein and Creatines are a ***** to get out of a plastic bag. Not to mention if that **** rips...
So in my bag ---
3lb Protein
1lb Creatine
Pill Box
Shaker Cup
Few cans of Redline or something...
Battery Op Mini Blender.

Hey, thanks again, man.
U have to buy them in bulk. I got my gym to buy a bunch and then got one from them.Hey, thanks again, man.
I'll try talking to my gym then. They're currently thinking about getting a Dr. Smoothie setup there. I really hope all goes as planned. I love their products.U have to buy them in bulk. I got my gym to buy a bunch and then got one from them.
Yep, basically the exact same thing.
Thanks to you as well.
I found them online one day cause my protein shake almost make me puke because of the lumpy texture. Something about swallowing quarter sized balls of powder didn't do it for me.No prob. I just ordered one. I never even considered that they made these things - handy!
Yeah, I've never been one for balls in my mouth, powdered or not!I found them online one day cause my protein shake almost make me puke because of the lumpy texture. Something about swallowing quarter sized balls of powder didn't do it for me.
Low and Behold... they had travel blenders.
So you're not into meat balls then.Yeah, I've never been one for balls in my mouth, powdered or not!
Seriously! Back when I first started lifting when I was 18, she of course was thinking that half my supps were steroids. My main defense was,"Mom, I'm 155 lbs and 5'10''. Do I LOOK like I'm on steroids?"Its always the mom!
T-Bone I really don't need another condescending voice in my life. If you do not agree with me taking protein, creatine, a multivitamin, DCP/LevR for dieting and prolonged workout reasons, then keep it too yourself. If I choose to take these supplements, it is up to me. It is NOT up to you to give me any flack about it, just because you disagree with it. I am doing what I believe is most beneficial for my workouts/lifestyle. You're negativity creates help in no way, and this board is up for people to talk with civility and to help others. Please stop parading your negative opinions every time you disagree with someone using something that you would not.Damn kids these days. You do not! NEED supplements.
All you need is the strap!Damn kids these days. You do not! NEED supplements.
This will be one of the first things I buy once I start work. Very convenient.No prob. I just ordered one. I never even considered that they made these things - handy!
I know! Now I'll have a blender at my house, work, and in my car! What more could I ask for?This will be one of the first things I buy once I start work. Very convenient.
Your body is your canvas, so to speak. Do what you want with it. Remember, you only live once. This is what really pisses me off. Politicians will ban supplements and random people will argue against others, based on age or some other detail, about taking supplements. Each individual possesses his or her own right, to do what they wish to their bodies. If you wanna use a steroid, regardless of how young you are, then do so. However, you're responsible for doing research, understanding how to use it, having knowledge of possible side-effects, and the list goes on. Some people will listen, some won't. Some people will put supplements to responsible use, some won't. It doesn't hurt to look out for the next guy, but we are each our own person.T-Bone I really don't need another condescending voice in my life.

I'd much rather use this than having to repeatingly stir, or shake a cup.I know! Now I'll have a blender at my house, work, and in my car! What more could I ask for?
I am in total and complete agreement with you MuscleGuy. It just really bothers me after I've done so much research and reading, that someone has the audacity to treat me like I'm ignorant. I consider every possibility I can think of when it comes to putting something into my body. In fact the reason I take these supplements is to live a long, strong, healthy life. I'm not just jamming the next "big thing" in my arm trying to get bigger. I methodically do research, ask questions, find out if a supplement truly is going to help me out, and use these sources in making my decisions. Age is important, but intelligence should prevail in all decisions.Your body is your canvas, so to speak. Do what you want with it. Remember, you only live once. This is what really pisses me off.
