I used this same stack on numerous occasions when I was first starting out. I did it like this. One scoop on protein an hour before my workout, then take my no xplode right before I worked out, it didnt take long for it to kick in for me. Then immediately postworkout take one serving of cellmass with 60g of gatorade, then 20-30 minutes later I would drink two scoops of whey with some bcaa. I only took one serving of cellmass per day, I didnt feel the need to take it twice. Alot of people might flame you for choosing the BSN product, when there are some better and more cost effective options, but I made descent gains while on this stack as a beginner.

20-30gr per shake usually i find you can go a lot higher (50-80) post workout when your body creates the ability to absorb more since its in a dire need for nutes, so basically you can take a shake pre post and inbetween meals and get in atleast 5 meals a day depending on your goals.... hope that helps somewhat

take 20g before w/o and 40g after workouts, you can also take 20g or so through the day for maintenance but as a meal

Well put Dormant. As for the BSN stack, if it works for ya, no harm, but yeah, I feel there are better ones out there, just use the search button bud. Good luck!!
