Supplements for summer

XDieselX · 06-13-2007, 07:21 PM

Im 15 years old 185 pounds. Im currently bulking, only taking Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Protein. Over the summer im planing on still taking ON 100% whey along with creatine mono and a weight gainer. Ive looked around the site and found that TKE Monster Food is great. When should i be taking these? Also is it alright to take weight gainer and milk thistle at my age?

Thanks.

Why switch your supplementation during the summer?

And why do you need milk thistle?

Weight gainers are fine.

Im trying to put on as much weight as i can over the summer Thomas. I thought i would need milk thistle for those supplements putting strain on my liver. Wrestling Stalion im not sure about my body fat percentage.

there is no need for liver support with creatine mono, protein, and weight gainers.

You really should depend on diet first. Supplements later. The biggest downfall from supplements is that you can't really chose what goes in you. (Weight gainer wise)

Milk thistle like Justlift said isn't needed. Just save yourself the money and buy BCAAs and flaxseed oil.

Don't take weightgainers after you lift. Too much fat usually. And Depending on how many calories are in the weight gainer I wouldn't take it all at once. SOmething like 900 calories is irresponsible to eat at once, thats asking for fat gain at your weight.
