Should I stack?

[nathan225566]

I am not a novice body builder i have a lot of experience working out and making sure to do it correctly. As for supplements i go into a grey foggy area. I am thinking about taking MRI Black Powder, Purple Wraath, and Dark Matter for before during and after workout. I am trying to gain a lot of muscle in a healthy stable trend. Would there be any recommendations otherwise for or against one of these supplemets?

There's no reason that wouldn't work.

Thats a solid stack. Although there are "better" pre workout supps out there. The best pre though is the one that agrees best with your body.

Most important is carbs and BCAA + EAA ~30min before working out (or protein if ~1 hour pre). After that, second most important is 1 hour post getting 2:1 ratio carbs to protein. Finally, make sure you're getting whole food protein throughout the day and before bed, ~1-1.5g protein per lb bodyweight. The pre/intra/post are good, but basic nutrition will add the mass.

Most pre-WO are there for energy and pump, so if blackpowder works, great. Post workout, Dark Matter is fine, but again the macros are what make or break it (creatine and beta alanine are good additives). Intras are fine as well, but I think if your pre-WO nutrition is solid it wouldn't be necessary. General guidelines, but it's gotta work for you.

That being said, I workout first thing in the morning and use a pre with 50g carbs 15g EAA, SizeOn intra (7g protein, 5g leucine, 40g carbs), then follow up with 75g carbs and 50g protein, then oatmeal with protein.
