Supplements i've tried

When i started to work out, i was told to try out the 5lb Gold Standard 100% Whey Protein which seemed a bit expensive, it tasted good and mixed well with milk, i often would add banana's or strawberries in and mix it up, i kept drinking  it for a long period of time and i felt like it was helping with recovery. I didn't think i wanted to try pre workout supplements, or creatine, but i did go ahead and bough Cell Mass by BSN usually bought for $34, which helped me out a lot since i wanted to bulk up and i have noticed the difference after about 2nd to 3rd week of taking it. Another thing you gotta push yourself and move up in weight in order to . So don't stay at 25lb weight and expect to gain. I gained a good amount of weight by working out, eating healthy but then hit a point where i couldn't get pass 143lbs. i felt really good after taking the CellMass and was ready to go the next day, when it came to recovery it was awesome and tasted good too. I definitelly recommend Cell Mass and they say that NOExplode goes hand in hand with it (never tried it). As far as Pre-workout my buddy whom i was training with bought Jack3d and it he let me try it couple of times. They have 3 or 4 different flavors but i liked the Grape Bubble Gum the most. its not that expensive only around $26 at a local nutrition shop. Others sell it for more, but i have found great deals on Amazon and sometimes got free shipping. And lastly last september i wanted to bulk up even more and heard a lot of good things about Pro Complex Gainer. i got a 5lb of double chocolatte from my buddy, the scoops were huge and drank 2 of them through out the day plus eating 5 meals a day. after i finished the 5lb, i bought Serious Mass Gainer since Pro Complex is way too expensive. Serious mass cost me about $40 for 12lb bag (looked like dog food bag) and seemed worth it. once again eating 5 meals a day plus two of those shakes one in the mid day and one after workout. one shake was about 900 calories with milk. I ended up gaining weight and finally passed my goal of 150lb. if you are trying to gain weight with the gainer, some tend to gain weight in their stomach and sides well you will have to take the chance, do abs and cardio. since im still trying to bulk up, i dont do any cardio because i want to gain and not lose weight. i do abs as well 3 to 4 times a week with regular workouts. this is what i have tried so far and worked for me, everyones body is different and everyone has different tastes. im sure there are better tasting supplements out there. I have cut down on buying protein or cell mass, although i still take jack3d which helps me with the intense workouts that i do. eat right and you will see significant gains soon. patience is a virtue.
