For the discussion of things related to...well... general health and fitness.

An idea of what to talk about (to stay on-topic):
  • Bodybuilding
  • Nutrition
  • Science
  • Supplementation
  • Routines
  • Articles
  • Sports training
  • Motivation
  • Strongman training

But more importantly, the Health and Fitness LIFESTYLE

*Please keep this FRIENDLY and ON-TOPIC, a friend lent me the FG - I can't remake this.

What's an important supplement many people overlook?
Obv not whey or multiple vit. Fish oil is popular but what about some amino acids?

How many BCAAs do you guys take daily, well, gram-wise, and should I start taking glutamine?

glutamine should already be in your whey protein and if you arent taking protein powder you are worthless

and i got a question

I have been a long time customer with a shopowner and he normally tells me things strait, and i went in there today looking for creatine, and like always he tells me creatine wont do anything but add waterweight and i will lose 100% of my gains and he was trying to tell me this other stuff called 'Con - Crete' was the only creatine he knows of that works, but i insisted on buying the 100% pure micronized creatine monohydrate and he seemed really upset i didnt trust him with his new product

anyone know if there was any truth to this?

He is just trying to take your money since he thinks you trust him so much..

And I used to take 15-30g of Glutamine a day.. But now I take a supplement that gets minimized from glutamine/fish oil/any anti inflammatory supplements.
