New to supplements

ryanjmccabe Posts: 7 Joined: 2005/04/26	2005/04/29, 08:51 PM I've been working out for a while and have seen some results, but I have yet to even touch supplements. I'm just wondering what you guys would suggest for a guy that's trying to lose weight, and a little muscle. But the main focus is losing about 20-30 pounds. I think I'm going with protein shakes but not sure after that. Sorry if this topic is done to death, I've been on this site for about a week...thanks.

My diet is 2000 cal/284g carb/100g protein/40g fat/day. That's something I've been trying to improve. I'm soooooo new to this it's ridiculous. Any help would be great, I really don't know where to start.

What I mean by that is do you want to look huge or fit and ripped? I have been on a program for sometime that is helping me trim my body, gain muscle and at the same time providing me good health and energy. Whatever program you choose, I would recommend you intake a balance of the essential nutrients, vitamins, and minerals everyday that we need with a sound workout program. Good luck. Shobe
