I am in the Army and I consider myself a pretty advanced lifter. However, I am unsatisfied with my body. I am 5 8" and only weigh 155lbs. I've been able to gain strength (bench 305lbs and squat 500lbs) but it's been harder for me to get the size I want. I've taken whey protien (shake before and after w/o), multi-vitamins, creatine, L-glut, cell mass, and NO-xplode and seen some gains but not enough. My diet it pretty good; Lots of carbs, protein and water and I stay away from junk food for the most part.

A friend of mind recommended IDS Sostonol 250, but it looks pretty harsh. I am looking for something pretty serious, but not too serious where theres a lot of side-effects. Money isnt really an issue. What do yall recommend and what would be the best way taking them (what time of day, before or after w/o, etc)? Thanks guys and I just wanna say this is a pretty cool forum.

well, i wouldnt be so quick to jump into steroids. looking at what you have: whey protien (shake before and after w/o), multi-vitamins, creatine, L-glut, cell mass, and NO-xplode: shows you are very basic. you take creatine and cellmass, they are the same. no-xplode wont help you gain, and glutamine is a waste. you take protein post, is it accompanied with carbs? if not, do it. before you get too far along and pick up an otc steroid, work on nutrient timing (eaa + carbs pre, whey + carbs post) and if you must add something look into activate xtreme, x-factor, ai's etc. try these before resorting to steroids, especially a super methylated one like Sostonol 250.
