Whey, creatine, energy blends, test boosters, etc. are all just memes designed to separate uneducated young men from their money. Just fucking eat food, there's nothing in those magic supplement bottles that you can't get plenty of from food. The only supplements that actually make a difference aren't the kind that you can buy at GNC.

That's not a valid reason. It blends extremely well and is well priced. Only problem, IMO, is that it's all fast digesting protein. A 50/50 blend of whey and casein has been proven to work better. But it probably doesn't really matter.
I'm >>37960135 here again to tell you: If you have time to pour and mix a protein shake, then you have time to prep your eggs too. Hard boil them. They last 5 days in the fridge. Easy to eat just the whites. Cheap as fuck. Complete protein. And if you still say you want to supplement then you're a fucking eggnoramous. #dadjokes2016

Gultamine is shit supplementing glutamine does nothing you are wasting your money. Myprotein is better and cheaper than gold standard. Stop buying shit from bb.com, they overcharge.
Can confirm that Double Chocolate is best ON

Glutamine does wonders for joint issues. If you don't have joint issues it won't do anything for you.

Don't buy anything besides whey and even that should be incorperated into your diet like normal food to hit your macronutrient goals. There's nothing magical about whey protein. It's just as good as chicken breast. Whey is good when you are lacking protein and the food you are eating is sweet. Can't really put chicken breast in oats with milk, unless you're some savage. On top of that, eat a healthy diet, with lots of leafy greens and complex carbs and some fruit. Your protein should come from lean meat and whey and your fat should come from nuts, seeds and to a smaller degree healthy oils like olive or sunflower oil.
Now, once you think you've got a good foundation, you may want to try out creatine and beta alanine. Both supplements have very strong evidence from studies suggesting to aid increasing strength and muscle hypertrophy to a slight degree and they are both completely save to take. Pretty cheap on top of that. Only take 5g of both on a daily basis, on rest days too. Of course you can do without too, not like they'll turn you into a beast, they just help you a little bit. It's not steroids and don't listen to anyone who tries to tell you otherwise.
Now the only thing you might still be lacking, is sun. Vitamin D deficiency is very common throughout the more northern regions of the world and there's not really anything you can do about it aside from going to a tanning shop regularly or taking Vitamin D3 supplemts. I'd recommend you go with the supplements, because you know, skin cancer and it's also a lot less expensive. Just search for the cheapest supplement on ebay you can get in bulk. I bought a 500 pill 5000IU each for like 30 bucks. Just make sure you don't go above 10000IU a day, which is still a very save dosage. Some people experience symptomps of Vitamin D toxicity around 20000IU, so don't overdo it.
With this you should be set and not lack in anything, which could hinder or slow down your gains.

The point of whey is a practical one, getting cals and protons fast with dome other stuff as well.
Creatine works, thats why its not that advertised by supplement brands
