I would start basic with a good protein, creatine, L-Glutamine, and most important is a Multi-Vitamin! If you dont take one of those vitamins dont even bother taking that other stuff. That is the most important thing. But thats all you will need for a while because your body will be shocked into muscle growth in the beggining, then later you can add some supps.-snow
