Hey Guys,
I'm curious as to what supplements (if any) you guys take? I'm looking at something to take after training and to aid with strength gains, lean mass. I'm thinking just a whey protein shake, any suggestions? Excel Labs does a whey + that seems to fit the bill and the creator is a pt at my gym so may be able to get a discount, has anyone tried this??
Cheers
Ben

I don't take anything at the moment. When i do take post workout supps it's only protein in the form of whey. www.affordablesupplements.co.uk is an excellent website with hundreds of supplements from different companies. By far the best and most cost effective (more for your money) is reflex instant whey. Big tub is 5kg and about £40 last time i checked. Reflex also do a good mass builder instant mass but to be honest i would leave these alone as they are high in carbs albeit complex carbs. I'd stick with instant whey straight after training and then a good well balanced meal 30 minutes later.

hi guys, for what it's worth i'll add what i know and think to this discussion, i now only buy my supplements from www.myprotein.co.ukthey are so much cheaper than all the big name brands, and do discounts for referring friends the last 5lb tub of whey protein the same as maximuscle promax extreme cost only 25 quid and is the best tasting stuff i've ever used if any of you fancy trying the site you can get a 5% discount off your first order if you use the promo code MP12402 cheers

Hey mikey,
Heard good things about this site when I was taking supplements.
was it the true whey you got? Might get me a tub although haven't taken any supplements for a long time.
By the way are you the mikey i met at Manchester on Wednesday?
Cheers for the insight any bud

Check out BodiTronics Express Whey folks (See my sig for link) I've been a customer of theirs for ages. Great spec product. Tastes amazing. Good for money. If anyone wants any samples, lemme know, will get some sorted. Andy - had a thought about this actually, will email you tomorrow bud
