My Stack

New member
I'm new to Anabolic Minds and am very impressed by all the extensive supplementation info and advice
Starting a serious program in april, short term goal is gaining as much lean mass as possible in 4 months time
I myself have put together my own stack but am now doubting some of my purchases

Supplement stack:

Whey Protein (Muscletech Isolate)
Caseine+Whey Protein (Biotrust lowcarb)
Creatine (Optimum Nutrition)
BCAA (Biotrust)
Pre Workout (C4)

Omega 3 (Biotrust)
Multi-Vitamins (Optimum Nutrition)
Vitamin D 10,000 (Vitacost)
Glucosamine (NOW Foods)

Lecithin (NOW Foods)
L-Arginine
Tongkat Ali 200:1

ACV (Apple-cider vinegar)
Green Tea (Not as supplement)

Might purchase:
ZMA
Beta Alanine
Bluestar Creatine
Alphamax T-Booster

My measurements are as follows (10-3-2014)
Age: 19
Length: 1,82 m
BMI: 20.7
BF: 7%
Muscle: 47.7
Visc: 2%

Any advice or recommendations ?
(note: I am on a slight budget)
 
You could go with a Cheaper protein like Giant Sports or Trutein than MT's. For Creatine you can buy a 1200g tub(400days worth ) of SNS Creatine mono for $14 here at Nutraplanet. Drop the Arginine and multi unless you really need it.
Beta Alanine, Citrulline Malate and Betaine are all good adds

This.

Although you're getting beta alanine in C4 already. If using 2 scoops there is no need for more.

Also Alphamax is getting very well reviewed here, and Orbit still has it on a BOGO sale if you wanted to check it out:

-Drop one of the protein sources- there's no need for two forms.
-drop vit D amount to 5,000 or so. Esp. As summer is coming
-drop arginine
-I'd drop the Lecithin
-drop the multi unless you eat zero veges
-drop the glucosamine
-drop one of the creatines

Just get some cheap mono (SNS has a very cheap option)
A pre workout (not needed either but up to you)

Save the rest for food
 
Looks like a great stack and you will definitly enjoy the Alphamax!

Like Driven2Lift said get your Alpha from Orbit for now as you will receive a free fitmax which can replace the C4 for the time being. Fitmax is highly underrated, it taste great, nice clean energy and no jitters or crash!
 
Ya, no need for 10,000 IU of Vitamin D, even in the winter. You should be able to get enough from your diet to only really supplement with 5,000 at the most.

Forgot to mention that I would also like to see a heightened sex drive, this is where lecithine, arginine and tongkat ali come in
As for the multi I'm going to be taking one cap a day before sleep (My multi contains zinc and magnesium)
I've been seeing a lot of people saying multi's really are unnecessary but there have to be some benefits don't there?
I agree on the Vitamin D, but I currently don't have any lower dosed pills, is it ok I only take one of these over 2 days.

Hey nicksox, what is your opinion of the use and effectivness of alphamax at OPs age of 19? I think the product has a great ingredient profile especially for the price, and have heard great things from older users, but would it do any good at a young age? I am 20 and have tried natty test boosters before and had really no effect, as I have heard others report, perhaps just non-responders. I think the ZMA and the Armistane could be of benefit (although some may advise against AI at younger ages), but what about the rest of the ingredients? I ask because I may be very interested in trying it as well, especially if a sale is going on!!!

OP- I like the look of the stack. Some you may ifnd uneffecive but I'm all for experimenting if the money is there. I would just agree with an earlier post and say only one creatine needed. Also, why looking for an increased sex drive at 19? I'm 20 and if mine went any higher I don't think I'd be able to do get anyhting done haha
 
Obviously the test boosting aspects of alphamax would be lessened when the test present is already high, but there are definitely some people your age who could see some increase. I asked what the Op's goals are as I think that alphamax could really help keep strength up while on a cut, while improving sleep and leaning with the armistane.

Ok cool. I think I'm gunna have to try it myself. Looks too cool not too and such a low price. I was just curious because I see alot of times younger people getting bashed for wanting to try a t-booster and here it is recommended haha.

Arginine is useless taken orally; you'd be better of getting tribulus for libido or DAA. Alphamax would suffice for that though.

I'm not sold on MV's given how they present a multitude of compounds in bolus. IMO spending that money on actual food would be better.

I wouldn't even bother with fish oil; there's data showing eating fish is far superior to fish oil. There's also threads on here you can look through for other data and info on it.

As mentioned in OP, I'm trying to pack as much lean muscle as possible in a 4 months timespan while having a max of 8% bf. Have never really done any serious bodybuilding and the only supplements I have used were creatine and whey, although very inconsistently. Am also doing Intermittent fasting and eating fairly low carb(150-200, will bump this up later on).
I will update all the stats by april 2nd when I'll get my BF tested

I feel you, but I've been having a little too much sex lately and at times it's hard to keep up (probably more to do with eating at a caloric deficit and being very low carb).
That not being the real reason really, I would just love to see what my dick is like supercharged

All that stuff will be a huge waste of money at 19 years old. How long have you been working out? Also no one needs to know all that information about yourself. The only thing relevant is your age in that list.

About a year on and off, all that stuff referring to?
