Hey all, been a while since I posted here! Basically my question is this: what natural supplements would y’all recommend to someone trying to get back in shape? Background is this: I’ve been lifting regularly for about 15 years (I’m 37 years old) but in the last few years I’ve had a ton of setbacks. First I moved to a very small town in the mountains of North Carolina that didn’t have a gym anywhere within an hour drive. Then moved back and got right back in the gym, but I’ve been beset by intermittent health problems for the last year and a half or so that keep me out of the gym for sometimes months at a time. Eventually I was able to keep it up long enough to get just about where I was before all of these pitfalls, only to get hit by the same health issues again (the big problem being severe anemia, to the point I could barely walk up the stairs to get to my bedroom, much less lift weights)!
Now, though, me and my doctors have finally got things figured out and I’ve been cleared to go back in the gym! But I’ve lost so much strength and muscle mass, and I need some help getting myself back to where I was. I’m no stranger to the supplement game, and I’ve used all kinds of stuff over the years, some of my favorites I’ve ordered already as well as one that’s new to me. I’ve maintained my creatine intake during all this, so here’s what else I’m planning:
M-Test
Anabolic Effect
Anabolic XT
Pepti-Plex (This is the one I’ve never tried).
Anything else I could/should add? Or is this a good stack to get me started? My primary goal is mass and strength, and honestly I’m vain so I’d take the mass over the strength lol but the two usually go mostly hand-in-hand. I can’t do ARA because of inflammation issues, which is a shame since I used to love that stuff. And while I’ve run PHs in the past, I’m trying to stay at least KINDA natty for right now, and I haven’t deviated into that territory in about 6 years anyway.
Sorry to ramble, any help is appreciated!
