Thinking of adding
I was a lanklet during highscool, started lifting and got great results, great progress and even assigned the hardgainers to whip them into shape.
Fell out of shape and lost a ton of weight during a shit time in my life. Getting back into lifting. Just starting loading creatine and gained .5cm girth pretty much everywhere in just four days. Looking to supplement BCAA's or other one a day pill solutions.
Can anyone post roids that won't make me a baldcel?
John Evans
Will only bald you if you are gentically presupposed to baldness. I have no reason to believe it will bald me.
Shit's jokes, but real question. I am lanklet and legit dropped 30 pounds during some economic hardships. Started lifting seriously a few months ago because I could afford to eat big. Attempting to be bloomer at age 21. This is big progress for me.
Use cronometer you dork. B6 is incredibly easy to get from tons of different food.

These are just what I suppliment. These are other values, but I believed these to be the most important to the thread. If I am wrong, I am open to learn. I am not an expert on nutrition in any way and am learning to eat better in parallel.
I will check out the app you suggested.

>60g protein For the grand total of..? I get +200 from food
>8g creatine But the maintenance daily dose is between 3-5g. More than that is useless
>BCAA Are you lifting fasted? If true, don't If false, unnecessary if you get enough protein from multiple sources
>Mg, Zn, B6, B12... Are you vegan or something? That's also readily available from normal food/portions. Use what said, adjust portion size, save money, feel fuller.
Tyler Perez
These are just supplimental. My diet is not steady, but I am improving.
Also, my creatine is higher because I am currently loading.
I heard that BCAA's help retain muscle for hardgainers like me, as well as reduce fatigue.
All of the other values are just to ensure I am not defecient. I am not vegan and try to get my nutrients through food already. From what I understand, the DV recommended amount is for moderately active people and that increasing the values ( with moderation ) either help or do nothing at worst.

>creatine Loading is a meme because takes time to saturate your muscle anyway. At maintenance dose, you'll create saturation at 2-3wk.
>BCAA It was shilled for IF trainees to mitigate catabolism, also avoided by lifting later, having a pre workout meal to carb up and eating enough protein - use cronometer and ensure you're meeting each AA targets.
>micros Unless you're eating crap, likely you'll reach almost all and overdosing won't do much unless you have a particular medical condition: Zn; some sources quote 11-15mg as DRI. 1l of milk has 4mg, 100g of beans, 2mg, 50g of peanut butter, 1.5mg Mg; 350-420mg: Same amount of milk, beans and peanut butter brings: 110mg, 175mg and 77mg

>8G Creatine Creatine won't absorb in excess

The difference in my measured circumferences were consistently larger within a four day period. I was doing an inconsistent dose of 3g because it's already in my powder and went up for a few days, saw results immediately. I would post my measurements but not at home. I was 17 BMI at age 15 and am now 21 BMI at 21.
Mason Nelson
If you lift, ditch BMI, use %BF, morning average weight, heigth, 1RM and such. Regardless loading or not, after 2-3wks you'll be at the same saturation level with 3-5g daily
Camden Garcia
all that stuff might make a 1% difference if that just eat a lot of meat and carbs, lift heavy and sleep well
Joshua Hughes
Should I even take creatine if I already eat at least a pound of red meat daily?
Mason Baker
user, all males or bois are condemned to have baldness .Lol...

Dylan Thompson
Drinking protein powder and being creatine saturated only makes 1% difference? I know it's hyperbole, but that's some aerious shit. BCAA's and micros, sure.
5mg creatine is found in approx a pound of tuna. It's found in other meats but most is decultured during cooking. You want to eat a pound of tuna every day?
My nearly 66 year old dad has a full head and my 74 year old grandpa (other side of family) had some thinning hair, but not male pattern baldness. It's only in certain families and even then it skips generations often. You're just wrong.
Charles Flores
*5G, not 5 mg
Lucas Morris
I guess you'll have to eat +2kg of beef, pork or fish daily to cover those 5g, which will be more protein (and quite some calories) that you'll need on a balanced diet. As Creatine is less than 0.10/day, supplementation makes sense.
Asher Torres
It's actually 8¢/day. Protein powder is 84¢/day. multivitamin is 7¢/day.
The BCAA's I'm thinking of implementing are 6¢/day.
Grand total of $1.05/day to ensure complete saturation of protein, creatine, aminos, and micros. If anyone on here is going to argue about $1.05, they can honestly fall in a pit. All that shit is name brand from amazon or in store and could be much cheaper if I decided to buy in bulk. That is worth any gains I may have missed without it.
Just saying that protein and micros are easily covered with balanced diet - 2kg of meat isn't easy to fit in for Creating purpose, when you can supplement with 0.8-10/day.
Ian Sanchez
Not that guy but is loading a meme? Asked a competetive body builder friend and he said just take 5 mg a day.

>BCAA >It was shilled for IF trainees to mitigate catabolism, also avoided by lifting later, having a pre workout meal to carb up and eating enough protein - use cronometer and ensure you're meeting each AA targets. But it's cheap as dirt and does no harm to take a couple times a day, right? I can't be arsed to use cronometer anymore. I'm just slow clean bulking.
Anthony Cox
OP you are very punchable
no one cares about your shit tier gains
Landon Myers
>taking supplements apart from creatine and maybe whey for when you’re too lazy to eat Unless your supplement comes for a needle it’s not worth the money
