What is "YOUR STACK" ?

[Illusive_Man]

My parents thought I was hiding cocaine in those jugs.
My friends thought they are steriods.
My gym bros think I should start getting on some CLA.

This is my stack.
What does your stack looks like?

Omega-3 to keep my nice and healthy.
Tylenol in case of headaches from working out too hard lol

Neurocore with lots of beta-alaine and caffeine to stay in the game during a workout.
And creatine.

I used to drink Whey Protein when I was recovering from drug addiction lol. My father and uncle drank it when they were trying to recover from alcoholism (we were all tryin 2 recover at the same time). I don't know if it helps that at all lol but we did that for a while. I used to take vit C as well. I don't take anything right now tho

[Illusive_Man]

NOW THAT I didn't know about you.

[LauraMarx]

well I don't talk about the protein shakes I use very often I wouldn't expect you to know that :)

[LauraMarx]

thanks for MHO! I'm surprised?

[Illusive_Man]

You've got stories inside ya I see.

[LauraMarx]

gimme a break gimme a break

[Anno_Domini]

Winner

[musicbrain5]

But the real question is, are you actually going to share that "Jumbo share pack" of M&M's? That looks like something you'd get at Costco, lol.

[EyeSeaYew]

@musicbrain5 Share? What is the meaning of this word that you speak of? xD

[musicbrain5]

lol.

[Tokana]

[DodgersGM]

And a hemp protein powder:

P. S. Not a full-fledged nutritionist, but go easy on soy protein isolates. Fermented soy is thought to be safer, but the jury's still out on regular soy.

[BertMacklinFBI]

I only take 100% whey protein with BCAA. no soy proteins no pre-workouts for me.

[Illusive_Man]

Goldie boy :3

[Illusive_Man]

No preworkout?
BUT THEM GAINZ BRAH

[BertMacklinFBI]

I feel pretty good without that extra boost :D my gains are still coming!

[Illusive_Man]

Ever tried that jack3D before the MDMA got whacked out of the formula?
I never had a chance to lol
Heard if you take that when you go to the gym , you LIFT the gym lol

[BertMacklinFBI]

never heard of it. I think im doing pretty good with food and protein :D almost done bulking, gonna start cutting soon. shit!

[Illusive_Man]

Here comes the cardio monster

[BertMacklinFBI]

im all about that HIIT. fuck low-intensity cardio, LIC is for bunnies. and vegetables.

[Illusive_Man]

So fuckers like you are the one who keeps on going THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP THUMP on the treadmill

[BertMacklinFBI]

[BertMacklinFBI]

[Illusive_Man]

The jocks don't care tho , they're like 300lbs giants

[Elizabeth21__]

Oh god, you guys are the best 😆😆😆

[BertMacklinFBI]

@Elizabeth21__ hey right back at ya!

[Illusive_Man]

@Elizabeth21__
*finger guns

[Kris85]

I use Vega protein powder. It's plant based and you get three servings of Veggies with each drink and all your omegas and vitamins. I drink it for breakfast every morning. I don't really take vitamins in pill form

[BertMacklinFBI]

that is so cool!

[Illusive_Man]

Vegan protein powders are the best!
All sort of different protein mix in with pea , and soy and lentils and quinoa. You ain't just getting protein , you're also getting all the micronutrients so GOOD ON YA!
Wish I can afford it tho lol

[Tokana]

Soy protein = testosterone killer

[DodgersGM]

Have you ever had a hemp protein powder before? It's fairly close to a complete protein, high in omega 3's, and honestly, some taste damn good!

[kambo_trick3y]

Um... well...

Here's mine!

[Tokana]

Protein

Isonatural (protein isolate)
Optimum Nutrition Whey (protein mix isolate and concentrate)
Wider 90% Soy protein - never take it, give it to my hippie friends

Preworkout
C4 blueberry razz

Creatine
Allmax Creatine monohydrate

[Illusive_Man]

VERRRY premium supplements there.

[Tokana]

Yeah, all that cost me about $200. I don't go clubbing in Canada anymore (only while on vacation), I don't eat out a lot (I cook and weigh my food), and I don't bu expensive clothing. So it leaves me a bit of cash to spend on bodybuilding.

[Illusive_Man]

Jesus Christ.
Is having such premium protein worth it?
Cos I'm a NOW , ON and Dymatize kinda guy.

As for C4... ohhh cellucor... VERY premium. To be honest I'll rather have jack3D but for some reason it's not sold in Canada... a lot of brands and supps are missing here for some reason.

Allmax , good stuff.

[Tokana]

Every changed that I've done to my routine whether it be taking a protein shake in the morning, getting more sleep, increasing my protein intake has allowed me to make more gains in the gym. I also look at it as a $ per gram of protein and have found that my products are the cheapest source of protein. I've used both ON and Dymatize and their both great products and would consider them in the Allmax crowd. As far as SoY Protein is concerned... I really don't know why you take that stuff, its horrible.

by the way don't count out the placebo effect that these supplements may have.

[Tokana]

my babes...

[Illusive_Man]

*vaseline

Okay , nice talking to you.
BYYYYEEEEE

[Illusive_Man]

Also , I'm taking soy cos I'm switching it up a bit.
Tried whey , tried egg , now I'm trying soy, might try pea or maybe casein next.

[Tokana]

hmmmm.. how did that get there?

[Illusive_Man]

I don't think those "preworkouts" are for THAT kinda workout lol

[Tokana]

isolate is fast digesting protein (post workout), concentrate is medium digesting protein (mornings/nights), casein is slow digesting protein (vacation and no weights); soy is a testosterone killer, and all the other stuff you mentioned just seems too hippie for me.

[Illusive_Man]

That's way too many protein to buy for a college kid lol

[Tokana]

I'm not telling you to buy all of them, lol

[Tokana]

and its not about how much you buy its how much you use that matters, I take whey concentrate in the morning (mix with creatine) and whey isolate post workout. that's it and in the rare occasion I'll take a preworkout.

[Illusive_Man]

Well I just have soy in the morning.
Go workout while sipping on BCAA in a fasted state.
After workout go to the canteen and have 4 glasses of milk with 2 plates of scrambled eggs and bacon.
Then it's regular macro fitting till before bed which I take soy again.

[ricke92m3]

Pre workout-Gold standard whey, creatine, hemavol
Intra workout-BCAAs
Post workout-Gold standard whey, 2 bananas
And of course a multi vitamin (controlled labs orange triad), along with plenty of food.

[aamy811]

All I have is vegan protein powder, sore iron tablets and some calcium tablets

[Illusive_Man]

I always wanted to get into the vegan protein powder stuff but they are so much more expensive :(

[aamy811]

I have a friend who works at a health food store and she gets me discounts so I rely on that

[Illusive_Man]

You lucky lucky bastard

[musicbrain5]

I don't take any vitamins or anything. But my husband is a whey protein (whey protein isolate) and creatine kind of guy, lol. I don't really pay attention to any of that stuff.

[meatballs21]

Just some whey protein (vanilla flavour) and Clif protein builder bars; with Extra Strength Tylenol, Extra Strength Tylenol Nighttime and Extra Strength Sleep-eze.

[Illusive_Man]

HAHAHha!
Looks like I'm getting an early start on the tylenol.

[mei0313]

Multivitamins, and iron :)
Tyrenols and some other prescribed drugs 🙊
I don't like protein taste 😧😦 It tastes like paper 🙊

[Elizabeth21__]

I have my ADHD medication, my seizure preventative, and my pain medication for if I relapse.

[Illusive_Man]

Oh...
That's a bit like... someone telling a dead mom joke and then the other guy telling ya... "My mom has cancer" isn't it?

The only response that's appropriate is just...
oh...

[Elizabeth21__]

Why? I don't mind my horrific stack. :D I got over the anxiety and stress pretty fast honestly, I don't mind having all these problems :) what did you want me to say?

[Illusive_Man]

PHEW , it's just that I wasn't exactly sure what to say when you tell me all the medication you have to take lol
Guess you're pretty darn over them huh

[Elizabeth21__]

Just three pills a day :) to bad they're as big as the top of my pinkie finger. But oh well.

[Tombstone1000100]

Just the 100% whey and BCAA.
used neurocore twice and gave it away to my gym buddy, it was shit as it gave me insane reactions.
No creatine for now, m on off cycle.

[BelleGirl21]

Nice. I only do omega 3 and creatin. Protien makes me feel sick.

[I_M_LEGEND]

i have whey protein, weight gainer, pre workout and creatine.

[Illusive_Man]

weightgainers?
Ain't those just basically expensive sugar?

[I_M_LEGEND]

nope. mine has maybe 3 g of sugar per 60 grams of carbs.

[Illusive_Man]

JESSSUS christ , 60g?
Simple or complex?
Cos 60g is gonna send me to the moon lol

[I_M_LEGEND]

[I_M_LEGEND]

99 percent sugar free. complex carbs, fast /slow protein matrix etc .

[Anonymous]

Hydrolyzed whey protein
Creatine
Beta-alanine
