I have been experimenting with a lot of supplements for the past 2 months trying to find what works best for me...i have been on whey, multivitamins, Kre-Alkalyn, glutamine, and just started drinking the Probolic a few days ago...I thought i would give the Probolic a shot instead of the whey and see if it made much of a difference...I drink my first shake(20g) first thing in the morning along with 3g of glutamine both on a empty stomach...about 45-60 minutes later i eat some breakfast (bowl of cereal, 2-3 egg whites). After breakfast I take 2 multivitamins...After lunch i wait 1 hour for my food to digest then take 1 kre-alkalyn for pre-workout and wait 45-60min to start lifting...Post-workout i drink 1 scoop of Probolic, along with 1 kre-alkalyn and 1.5g of glutamine...after about a hour and a half to two hours later i eat dinner....before bed a drink 1 scoop of Probolic and take 3g more glutamine...That is my routine every day i lift....the days i don't lift nothing changes except instead of taking 2 kre alkalyn, i just take 1...and instead of 7.5g of glutamine im taking 6g...

when i started working out i weighed 166lbs...today my weight is 173-175 (its back and forth all day)...is that a good amount of weight to have gained in 2 months?????im seeing small changes as time goes on but i figured by now i would see a drastic change in my body...I don't know if I'm taking my supps wrong or if there is more that i can do to help the process move slightly faster...

if anyone has any advice please respond...THANKS

The weight you gained is outstanding bro. Eat more, you seem to have only 3 meals with shakes in between if I'm seeing correctly. Supplements look good bro.

agreed, for the small amount of food and shakes you have eaten, thats really good. Supplements are not going to make you gain 50lbs in 2-3 months, thats unheard of.try and aim to eat 5 meals a day plus your shakes then. Get rid of the cereal for breakfast and add oatmeal, and up your eggwhites to 6+. When trying a supplement give it 2-3 months at a shot, don't take it for 2 weeks to a month and evaluate, sometimes you won't see dramatic results until after a month, you will see some results prior, but drastic usually occurs after a month.

350%? That's like your body x 3. Doubtful.

what it increases (just like Gaspari Nolvadex XT) is the free available test in the bloodstream (so what your body has already produced, it allows you to use more of it). Personally when it comes to test products like nolvadex it is recommended before bed because it does effect gh levels and aids in the recovery of the muscles. However, when you want to gain muscle by increasing test your body needs to increase estrogen as well (although it sounds weird, you will get stronger and bigger by allowing your body to increase natural estrogen then if you block it). Estrogen blockers work better as part of an pct cycle. 6-oxo is a decent product though, doesn't block as much of the estrogen that nolvadex does, so it allows for slightly better gains (depending on the person's diet, training etc...).

Stay away from GNC, they will try to sell you anything, search the forum for test products, most people review them too when posting and the effects of them etc...
