so, i finally tried my nitro-tech shake today. i ended up with chocolate because that's all they had. i've always been afraid of chocolate shakes because they hardly ever actually taste like chocolate. well, this one actually does. i must say, it's kinda tasty. i stuck in a blender with some milk and half a banana and i could actually drink this just as a drink. not powdery or chunky at all. very pleasantly surprised. i would recommend it just on taste alone. not sure about anything else about it though.

 

why does every workout noob hit the supplements so soon? get your routine down and let your body adapt first

 

I agree

I agree too. But I think it's because they often hook you in with freebies or cheap deals. Then you get hooked on it. Stuff is like crack! :yumyum:




sidenote: When I started, I knew nothing and was actually scared of supplements. h:

 

:werd: workout first, see how your body does, change up your diet, then supplement as needed.

I only started supplementing after like 2 years

 

because no one ever tells them not to.

 

I'm going to go against the grain and say that there's nothing wrong with a little protien shake after a good workout, even for noobs. If you worked out like you're supposed to and got a nice fatigue/tightness in the muscles, you need nutrients and rest. Just be sure to remember that a supplement is an extra source of food, and it doesn't replace your regular meals.

But other than protien milkshakes, vitamins, and minerals I don't think that noobs need to use supps.
