1. When taking supplements is there really a significant difference between mixing with water and milk ,its just that i'm using a weightgainer (maximuscle) and it says that 'best when mixed with water' ,i much prefer drinking it with milk and was wondering how much of a difference it would make. If it's insignificent then i'll carry on taking it with milk.

2. I've read that when trying to encourage muscle growth ,you should hold the weight when your muscles are in tension for 1-3 secs ,so for example if you were doing bench press ,you would hold the bar for 1-3 secs when you have lowered the bar to your chest ? Just now i do 4 sets of 6 reps with 60 kgs ,would it be better for bulking if i carried on doing this or if i lowered the weight and started holding the weight for a couple of seconds when in tension ?

Drinking milk with a weight gainer sounds nice but it can also make you throw it up. You will just have to try it out yourself.

On descent you want to control the weight and on the ascent you want to push it with explosive power/speed.

Supplement flavor rule
Mix like a kid
If its fruity mix with water
If its savory mix with milk

You wouldn't mix fruit punch with milk right? But rocky road is a different story.

Strawberry is an exception! It can be used in savory meals well when its not tart!
