First Supp you ever took

I think i bought the entire body fortress line that was for sale at my local walmart at the time lol

I remember thinking i was on to some secret advantage to training because "who else would buy ALL THESE supps, right?"

Oh the naivety of a skinny 19 year old..
 
Wasn't quite on my first run of supps, but I remember using a supp called "ICE" in college(04/05 ish), it was an intra. Basically a BCAA intra before its time. Took a serving pre and during, but always found it made us so full feeling that it almost hindered training.

We also used a pre called V12 or something along those lines, I feel like that was one of the first of the second wave of Pre's kind of after the ephedra ban hammer dropped.

Anyone use or remember GF Pro, it was like a fruit flavor based protein that was supposed to mix up like a juice, used it back it in the day, it was pretty gross.
 
Funny how Ultimate Orange was prob the first PreWorkout, fast forward there are prob thousands on the market, of course everyone vying for the top spot.
 
Another one: Cybergenics. There was another one in the 90's that came with this Licorice smelling bag you were supposed to inhale before doing a set, but I forget it's name.

My first pre was NO Xplode (first version) and I loved it haha! Of course, I'd always forget that it was highly carbonated and shake it to mix...

After that I moved on the NO Shotgun (again, very first version). Worst tasting supplement ever. Kind of like cinnamon/apple/vomit. But it was a damn solid pwo! Also dabbled with some of the original App Nut RPM with good results
 
I remember the first two combos were NOXplode + Muscle Milk CnC and SuperPump 250 + Syntha-6 Chocolate Milkshake. Those were simpler times...

Then I remember being a huge fan of Infinite Labs Juggernaut in college. This would be whichever version was around in 2008ish.
 
Sadly I couldn't list all the things I first took. I started lifting in 1999 and got a job at GNC. I was taking everything lol. It was upwards of 65 pills a day. I gained 12 lbs in 3 weeks though. People would come in and ask me what was working and I'd say I have no clue what's working lol. That's when the muscle tech andro stack 1st came out. GNC had it in a locked box behind the counter. I was on it and cell tech. After that i took the andro poppers that you held under your tounge. Tasted like licorice yuck. All the vitamins, HMB, DHEA, protein, creatine, glutamine and who knows what else. I still have huge stretch marks on my chest and shoulders. Someone asked me once what kind of surgery scar it was.

I love the way the new Met-RX bars taste but their main form of protein is soy isolate :(

Meh I eat them for the carbs primarily and I don't much care on the source of protein in that case and it includes several in those colossal bar's. Quick and easy pre workout meal on the go or while working mid day they come in handy and taste like dessert.

Drop in the bucket to my intake of protein 100g from Lamb alone yesterday and another 56g from salmon and that isn't counting the chicken I also ate :P

I also eat fermented soy, edamame steamed/boiled or roasted/grilled and pan toasted no cares just another food to me

The super cookie crunch is to die for

It is sooooo much better tasting now than it was in the 90s

My first bar from them was some kind of Peanut Butter? I can't remember I mean so long ago lol but it was so bad that I tried to feed it to my buddy's English Bulldog at the time which would eat ANYTHING but all he did was lick it and walk away lol like ya.. fk that.. :|

All of the flavoring is improved since than of course but man were some of them bars chalky and just so nasty! Had several protein powders all chalky tasting and washed out :X like hold your nose and slam it back..
 
Another one: Cybergenics. There was another one in the 90's that came with this Licorice smelling bag you were supposed to inhale before doing a set, but I forget it's name.

Did you use this? I remember it being like $119 or so...
 
I remember being about 14 and watching those commercials for Cybergenics. I wanted it so badly, but $100+ seemed like so much money back then. At the time, I think I literally thought it would turn me from a fat-ass into the guy on the box.
 
Original cellmass with just CEE and NO Xplode...by far cellmass was the tits for flavoring. If they ever remade it I'd buy it for memories. I used to do that pre and post and enjoy my life. I wouldn't even shake up the NO Xplode I did it just how the commercial did it, with a glass and spoon.
 
I don't know about you all but I had America's #1 whey protein

Invalid Link Removed

Then I had a tub of no xplode which I took only on very special chest days. It lasted me for almost a year. I cherished that tub like it gave me magical strength.
 
I took a **** ton of boron and arginine in the late 90's/early 00's. I've honestly never used any supplements since until just a few years ago.

Funny, I remember when this came out. It was a HUGE improvement in proteins. And by today's standards, it would be gross.
 
Muscletech Cell Tech sadly.

Idk why but that just made my day. Dat der cell tech gainzzz!!!! Lol don't worry I fell for it to.

My first supp was musclepharm assault when they first used creatine HCl but still had mono in it as well. Gave me the sh!ts like no other

I just hate creatine HCl. Even solo it makes me sh!t my brains out

Lived on this stuff. Bill Phillips of EAS plugged the heck out of it as I used to think Muscle Media 2000 was gospel

Same starting stack, loved them both. Moved on to SuperPump and SizeOn after that. Grape everything! lol ON was my 1st whey.
 
The Weider weight gainer in 2001. I knew absolutely nothing about nutrition or supplements and probably would have bought anything. Haha
 
Mine was six star chocolate whey sadly lol, boy have i learned alot since then. My first real supplement was plasmajet from gaspari that was the tits!, my favorite natty supp of all time.
 
Probably VS store brand creatine monohydrate and the old AEN IntraXCell (capped beta alanine). For pre-workouts it was the old PreSurge Unleashed (with DMAA) and Muscle Warfare Napalm (also with DMAA). Probably some protein powder and/or weight gainer as well. I think it was going into my freshman year in HS. Could have done a lot worse, haha.

My dad, who used to bodybuild a bit, bought them for me, but my mom was very anti-supplement (she isn't anymore), so I had to hide them from her. I remember I had weight lifting class sophomore and junior year, and I'd mix a scoop or two of my pre-workout in a water bottle about half an hour before lifting class started (in the middle of whatever class I was in). Stuff zoned me in, haha.
 
Holy crap, I remember mixing eggs with chocolate syrup and milk to make my own protein shake! Was trying to get big for 7th grade football... After I had a lil money I feel into the Boron and Cybergenics trap of the early 90's!!!!
 
Beverly International back in early 90's
