there are not "essential" supplements

Best supplement: Consistency.

The only supplement really proven to work with true effiacy is creatine and fish oil tbh.

I'd use creatine simply for general brain and mitochondrial health & function even if I didn't work out.

Whey protein is great, but is displacable if you can get enough via diet, but it helps a lot.
Same for the fish oil.. if you can eat enough fish you're fine, but it's nice to supplement with it because it's doubtful you will.

That's about it: Creatine/whey/fish oil
Also use some joint support sometimes. I've had a couple of strange bouts with either tendonitis in my left forearm or dull pain in my left shoulder that joint support always aleviates within 2-3 weeks. Too cheap to not use really.

joint support = chromium picolinate or condroiton or what is joint support balla?

And I kind of have to agree. Anytime I've lifted I tried to do it the "right way" by taking these products. I honestly don't think 1 and 2 make a huge difference either, I've just always used them.

So, yeah, maybe I won't use them - just always think about my body and making sure it's being supported correctly. I take a multivitamin and fish oil daily anyways, without lifting. I think just protein for now and maybe something like creatine or test. Still open to ideas...

Whey, creatine, fish oil, and a multivitamin if you want.


Anything else is meh..

Cissus has been the best for me out of all
works fastest and alleviates symptoms more effectively

BCAAs would be more important during a cut than a bulk
And creatine year a round...

try some dbol it worth the price!

Ya u can get the bloated look just like this guy!
