forget the non-ephadrine based supplements like the xenedrine efx....i say this geoff because yes they are safer HOWEVER, they just dont work. They use a substance named synephrine in ephidrines place, and whilst the properties are similar, synephrine is just no where near as potent. Any whey protein is of value to you so i do recomend that one. I have my protein shake mid morning and in the afternoon as subsitue meals....if i snack this is what i have basically. Im sorry ur dad wont let u have creatine. It is safer than any form of xenedrine so i do find that odd. Amino acids, well, are like multivitamins i guess. If u dont get enough in ur diet they will give u what u r missing, but really they arent anything flash to help lose weight or gain muscle (in that perspective atleast)...creatine isnt hazardous to your growth....some supplements to watch out for that are basically rat @!#$ is HMB and in your case Soy proteins (basically because they increase the level of oestrogen...not good for us males trying to pack on some size)....a good site to go to is supplementwatch.com They have ingredients of supplements analyzed their and give non-biased info on substances. Creatine is in there too and has no side effects whatsoever what is ur dads argument in that? anyway...taraxatone, forget about its not worth the strain on the body...a cheap supplement is flaxseed oil, i reccomend this as a source of essential fatty acids...i dont eat butter/margerine and am allergic to all seafood so i dont get much of this stuff. You need the good fats like these to burn the bad fats on the body as they say. If you are looking for a thermogenic like xenedrine but more effective without side effects, Dymetadrine Xtreme has proven to work well. Plus u only need one-two pills a day for good results, unlike 12 or something hydroxycut/xenedrine say to take. Natural bodybuilders like Skip Lacure (hope thats how u spell it) use dymetadrine before work outs. Gives a great buzz and energy kick which stay through the day. Just dont have em before bed, you will be up all night lol. If you find some supplements u are interested in, post them here before you buy them and i will give you the run down wether they actually work and are value for money...go forth grasshopper and learn the ways. I stress visits to ast-ss.com Their articles by Paul Cribb especially are very informative. Watch out for some sales pitches and look to the science in some supplements.

o.k i order all my suplements from pro source and they dont have Dymetadrine Xtreme in thier stock or at least from what ive seen in thier catalog or online store i was wondering if they sell it at the gnc store or if i should just go with xendadrine-efx even though i might not get the same if any resaults and just risk it and the flaxseed oil where is that stuff sold? and is it possible u think to get my body fat % from 25 to the mid 18-20 range in 2 months... im tryin to get around 10-15 but that will take a long time and alot of work and i tried that work out plan u gave me in the mornin i walked a quarter mile and jogged a quarter mile then afternoon went on tredmill for 5 min. at a jog did back and arms and at the end i was sweatin like a pig and feeling pumped lol anyways is thier anything i can take that will enhance muscle mass and strength that dosnt have the word creatine on the flippin lable ive been tryin to find some but they all have some sort of creatine in them i know im probly a pain in the neck for you put i apreciate all the help youve been givin me latly well thnx

nah skip all the xenedrine stuff altogether it doesnt work without ephadrine, thats the price u pay for saftey. Get Dymetadrine Xtreme from somewhere else if you can, otherwise seriously keep your money, forget the xenedrine. Flaxseed oil is easy to get a hold of. Get that at supermarkets where they sell their vitamins and such it will be there. Evening primrose oil is the second best alternative to flaxseed oil if u cant find it at the regular shops. Body fat down by atleast 5% in 2 months? hmm..good question. I dont know to tell u the truth but i wouldnt think so. Keeping in mind their is fat everywhere on the body and not just on the 'bad' places. Dont let that discourage you though, keep doing what ur doing ur working hard its good to see. As far as muscle buildingsupplements go, whey protein as a meal replacement is your best bet. Creatine is in everything these days lol but thats only cause it works. Anyways take the flax or evening primrose oil if u cant find that and your whey proteinshakes mid morning and mid afternoons as a second and 4th meal usually, and u are doing fine.
