I'm not new to weight lifting by any means. I have however recently joined a gym for the first time, and I'm excited because the variety gives me a workout I normally didn;t get at home.
I'm currently interested in cutting the fat from my waste, although I would also like to ass lean muscle mass in the process if possible.
I've been reluctant to use supplements aside from protein in the past because I'm never sure how dangerous they are, or how much science about their safety backs them up. However, I figure they will probably play a decent role in assisting me in reaching my goals.
So, I need a check list of what I should take, vs. what I shouldn't take.
I read BB1's log on cAMP and did a search online about it. I know it promotes lean bodies. Should I take it? Does it just help cut fat, or does it help cut fat and ass lean muscle? I bought 7 Keto before reading the post, is that as good, not as good, or completely different from what cAMP is supposed to do?
Should I take creatine? I've always been reluctant to take this, but if it'll help, I guess I can give it a try.
What multi vitamin would you recommend, not necessarily for diet, just for health?
Is there anything else I should take to help me reach my goals?
Is there anything else I should take to maintain my health?

great line of supplements right here:
V-12, its a creatine, and its great.
Hot-Rox, immediately feel the effects for great weight loss.
On 100% Whey protein after workouts, before workouts.
Muscle Milk, before bed.
B-Complex vitamin.
Mega Mens Vitamins.
Isa-Test, promote lean muscle mass and strength gains.
Lots of Water all day long.
Dont be scared of supplements, i was and now i feel like i wouldnt be where i am without them. make sure you are taking around 1.5g protein for each pound of body weight you have, i.e. 200lbs = 300g protein. dont be afraid of protein as long as you are working hard it will not make you fat. Introduce cardio to your workout plan too. 3 hours a week get your heart rate up to about 130bpm, maybe 45 minutes a day 4 days a week. watch the extra weight melt away.
On this and a rigourous workout schedule in one month i increased my bench by 20lbs, lost fat, noticed awesome gains in size and strength. hope that helps or gives you at least some direction.
Good Luck.
