What was the FIRST supplement you ever used? And WHY?

Flakko · 10-25-2005, 05:49 PM

Ok people, let's have fun here.
I used my first supplements back in 1998 and they were soy protein and creatine monohydrate, after that I bought the ProPerformance weight gainer, I think it was the 1850 or something like that, then the 2200, also the creatine I used was the GNC ProPerformance.

The reason why I used them was because the big/strong guys in the gym told me to use creatine so I could be stronger, and the weight gainer would make me big, but none of them worked, because back then I didn't know half of what I know now about diet, training, and supplements.

Oh and I was like 160 Lbs and my biceps were like 11.5" or 12" and back then 14" was the sh*t, all my friends wanted to have 14" biceps, now in 2005 I'm 190 Lbs and my biceps are 15" (Not that big, but now I see that 16" is not a big deal).

Whey protein back in early 2002 (although it seems like a lot longer ago than that). I soon followed with creatine monohydrate powder. I wanted to get bigger and stronger and all my jock friends had had good results with both supps. The research I did showed these were the supplements to use.. Also spring break was coming up.

	Obstacles don't have to stop you. If you run into a wall, don't turn around and give up. Figure out how to climb it, go through it, or work around it. Michael Jordan
