Ok everyone the bottles are almost empty........
 
Jan 1st I didn't really have any goals in mind, I just wanted to start working out. I worked out about 6 weeks without supplements, now it has been 6 weeks since I have been taking them......currently taking
 
No Xplode
Purple K
V60 protein
Muti's
greens plus........
 
 
I am fairly new to all this, I have lost 15 pounds which was all fat, and now I want to start bulking.
 
What do you guys recommend????? People at the Health store don't ask what goals you have they just try to sell you anything..........Any suggestions???? Thanks

You could just keep up what you're doing now and just eat some more calories. 

When ur bulking, load with protein and start taking creatine.  also up carbs and calories.

Ditto, focus on complex carbs so you don't gain back the fat.  I would say the only "supplement" you need is a well developed diet and maybe mono.

ok thanks for your input guys

So i went today and ended up coming home with Xpand instead of the NO xplode. The guy at the counter swore by it, it was the same guy that recommended the xplode the previous time. What you guys think about it? I can return it if I don't like it after 2 weeks. I also replenished the purple k's.

hmm... ive never taken it but i think a guy on my team said that his brother (who is a bodybuilder) uses it...
who makes it?
keep me updated..

dymatize makes it, I will be sure to keep you updated

if he was 6 weeks off and now 6 weeks on, wouldnt it be good to cycle off? or does this only apply to certain suppliments?

Ok, so I'm back with an update on the xpand (non caffeine), I find that it pumps me up to the point where I look like I'm going to burst by the end of my workout. It absolutely tastes horrible, (LIKE ALMOST GAGGING) but in terms of giving me the extra strength it is a no go. I really noticed the first time using it that i couldn't lift that extra 10-15 lbs that I could when using the NO xplode.
 
Regardless I'm going to be training a few weeks without anything because I don't want my body to grow immune.
 
It is safe to say that when i start back up I will be going back to the NO xplode.

You do know that probobly because it doesn't have caffeine right? You could just take additional caffeine pills, they're like $3 a bottle...
 
You didn't get anything other then pumps from xpand? It's got a good amount of creatine, it should have helped you some strength wise.

Like I said, I really couldn't lift as much, maybe it's just me though..........

all your really need is a good protein and creatine product

No Xplode isn't bad if you don't mind the caffeine

yes I am switching back to NO xplode, ISO sensation 93 is the protein shake I take.
