Default Supplement Help

Ok so Im a 28 yo mother of three in fairly decent shape (active duty army) and am looking into getting more into weight lifting. many of the guys i work with are taking all kinda of supplements and they claim that they help, but i'm not sure where to start. i'm sure the stuff they take isnt the same stuff i would want to. anyone have any ideas, i'm not looking for a miricle weight loss drug, but something to help me build muscle mass without looking discusting.

iv heard a lot about protine and creatine and various other supps. can anyone shed some light on this for me or have an recommendations?

The only supps I'd bother with if I were you are:

Protein powder
BCAA powder
A good multi-vitamin
Fish oil capsules

..... maybe creatine later on down the track.

None of these will make you look disgusting.

Don't worry about getting all big and bulky and gaining a chiseled jawline & and Adams apple - it just won't happen.
Testosterone is what causes this & unless you're doing steroids you will remain feminine.

Totally agree w/ Joe here! Educate yourself on nutrition and the only supplements worth taking (in my opinion) are the ones listed above. What you put in your mouth, and when you put it in your mouth, is the single most important thing. You could have the greatest routine and genetics but if you eat crap you won't get the best results.

I can't give you REP Joe because I haven't whored myself enough....
