i just got this whey yesterday that i ordered from allsportsnutrition.com . its protein usa pro-rated whey. 10 pounds for 43 bucks, and that after shipping charges! got here like 3 days after i ordered it. it tastes as good as optimum, with more protein an a smaller price tag. i highly recommend it.

ive just been sticking with my routine, which works good, and i just got some creatine. i haven't started creatine yet, but last week i gained like 2 pounds from diet and that new protein. i got a 60 serving 300 grams jar of optimum creatine powder(not pre-load, just the plain stuff), and i also ordered a 4 pounder of champion's creatine xtreme(creatine with great delivery, like cell-tech at like half the price) but it hasn't come yet. i plan on using the regular creatine for a month or so, and then switching over to the creatine xtreme(regular creatine is supposed to hit a platuea after a month, or so ive heard). im on a tight budget for supps right now and i have to stretch things to make it to football season.

do you not do lateral raises of any sort or any exercise to work your medial (side) delts?

i did side raises for a while i just switched over to bent over raises to get my back of my shoulders work. what would you recommend most for broadening your shoulders?

In my opinion lateral raises wont be the best for you. They aren;t functional for what you want...ie to be a football player. You need to stick to compound power movements to increase your explosivness on the field. For broadening your shoulders millitary press is great. Also, side lateral raises aren't the safest exercise to do because of all the muscles that cross the shoulder and how they are affected when you perform that particular exercise.

peace,
Patrick
