What are the best types of supplements to take, like a good base?

If you had to make a list of the most important supplements to take, what would they be?

sdb

multivitamin for starters regardless of training.

Then, whey or other protein substitute, add more according to goals.

Well, add more like what? Thats what I'm looking for, a progression of supplements.

Supplements can be a huge waste of money. People throw money in the toliet each day with sups. Multi, Protein, Creatine, rest else is junk.

First off. Please fill us in on how long you've been training, what your stats are, age, what you are on now.
OR
Just load up on Muscle Tech. It worked for Jay for a while

From what I know, creatine is the best supplement to use. One of my friends has used it and it has worked well for him. You need to eat alot of protein for it to take effect. If you take it and don't exercise it can cause you to gain a lot of weight, so make sure you actually exercise.

What is the joke about Muscletech? I see people take these stabs at them on here and the bb.com forums, and I never get them. Cna someone clue me in? haha

lose the EE and just use plain creatine. You have a way's to go before you start worring about supp's 5'10" 155 is skinny, not humpin ya just saying you have to eat.

I know I'm skinny, and I do eat. I'm doing a clean bulk so I have making been slow progress, but progress none the less. I used to be fat, and I just can't ever go back to that. IMO, being skinny is better than being a fatass.

They just get a bad rap for their overzealous marketing and label claims. Most their stuff is pretty pricey too.

Critical Mass

Do what Malley said. That's pretty much all I take and I have been slowly adding quality muscle for years. You'll be fine.

bmx2962

Yeah, their advertising is pretty over the top and gimmicky. But is there any reason to use their stuff? Is any of it better than their competitors'? Or is it all the same shit?
