Im 18, and ive been lifting on and off the past few years due to injuries in athletics. After recouping from the injury, the muscle I gained is pretty much gone. Ive started back up lifting about 2 months ago, and am training for the upcoming baseball season.

I just bought some V12, and Protein to go along with my workouts. How exactly should I take this? IIve never gone the supplement route, and from everyone ive talked to its the way to go. So some quick questions for you guys...

1. Is the loading phase really necessary? or is it just so you use it up faster.

Is this a good schedule work out?

Monday-Legs
Front/Parallel Squats
Leg Press
Calf raises
Leg curls
Lunges

Tuesday-Upperbody
Bench(DBs)
Tricep extension
Curls
Rows
Lats

Wednesday-OFF

Thursday-Legs again
Friday-Upperbody
Sat/Sun-OFF Days

On off days, I run about 2 miles, should I run the 2 miles on work out days too?

Ive seen results, but like I said I want to try the supps...

Keep in mind, ive had rotator cuff problems (Shoulder Impingement), which is why you are not seeing the over the head exercises like military press or bench with bar...

Some more quick questions, when should i take the supplements and how much of each? Could you mix the protein with the V12?

I lift when I get out of class at about 1pm...

Any information is appreciated...Thanks a lot!

I have never taken v12. There's so much stuff out there. Try creatine and see if it works for you. Trac is an ok one and it doesn't suggest loading. Creatine works for some, not for all. Take protien a little before and after workouts.

You can do cardio on weight days if you want, just do it after weights. But don't over do it with cardio as it will interfere with your mussle gains.

Your tuesdays should be chest and triceps only. On friday do back and biceps. Don't do all your upper boday in one session.
