How do I take these in order? - Saturday, June 14, 2008 6:52 PM
Protein
N.O
Creatine
MV & Fish Oil

Kind of new to working out, want to know when to take the supplements above. Also is there a purpose to be taking any weight gainer? I am not to familiar with the stuff, friends have told me that you dont need both weight gainer and protein shake. Take one or the other? This true? If so, what is the better option?

Thanks

multi right when you wake up with a glass of water
 
protein AT LEAST 1 before and 1 after workout
 
creatine- some creatines tell you to take them twice daily, some say once.  better off after workout IMO
 
fish oil - just follow the instruction on the label
 
you don't really need the NO.  it does nothing for you but basically get you hyper and concentrated.  but take it before your workout
 
look into some BCAA's

True, you can never have enough muscle food lol. I take my whey as well as BCAA's. Seems to be working out alright.

Protein- 40g post workout (Taking Protein before is optional)

N.O.- Just depends on the product, follow the label accordingly.

Creatine-Post Workout

Multi-Vitamin- Serving Size amount with full meal

Fish Oil- 1 Capsule three times daily with meals.

why would you recommend taking it after a workout? i thought basic plain creatine was for like hyping you up during a workout?

well i was asking boomersooner why he would suggest taking it postworkout, for the fact that it hypes you up.. im not sure but i think it has something to the effect of filling your muscles with water so they can grow better or something.

what boomersooner was sayin is that some creatines say twice a day some say once. if once, then take pre workout.
 
majority say twice, in which case before and after wo.
 
altho might i add, it is only to get it into your "system" altho some you will not get an instant "boost" if you take it minutes before a workout.
 
you take it in small doeses then bigger ones to get it into your system over time for it to start taking affect. if you notice it doesnt do anything for maybe a week or so untill your body adapts to it.

creatine really doesn't do anything as far as a "boost" goes.  that's what N.O. supps are for
