Which supplements? - UK-Muscle Body Building Community

Hi all. Just a short question and all advice welcome. I don't have a lot of money so It's hard to get my supplements from natural sources and having the time is also difficult so. Given that I can afford 2 kinds of supplements a month what would be the most important???? I have done some research and came up with these 2.

1) A good whey protein (Reflex choc-mint?)
2) Creatine (Reflex XXL?) of which I have found a good supplier at a reasonable price as with the whey.

Given that these 2 are a good choice when would you suggest I take them?

Thanks for any info.

Yes.
I have not used those perticular products but I do take whey and creatine.

I'd take the whey protein for brekkie with oats, the whey protein pwo also with a carb source and the creatine (5g) also pwo.

Hope this helps buddy.

Thats great guys, thanks. Do you think the REFLEX is a good brand? Read so many forums it's confusing.

I usually buy what ever is on sale. Sure some protein might be a bit better than others but the designer labels will charge more and it might be just a little better if any at all.
If I buy the cheap stuff on sale and it mixes well in water than I am happy as hell.
I bought some stuff once that I could not mix for nothing. Funny thing it mixed in yogurt but not in water.

If you buy the stuff on sale then you actually get more protein for cheaper.

As for taste, I cant eat any chocolate whey, its gotta be anything but that. I can stomach any protein even soy or milk and egg as long as it isnt chocolate.

Reflex is a good brand, however, if you are on a tight budget then look at BulkPowders.co.uk (There's a couple of other but can't remeber them) as your get a lot more for your money, or with our discount Extreme is very very good value.
