Nope...not a necessity. Just make sure you eat plenty (5-7 meals) and lots of rest (7-8 hours sleep per day). Although, you'll need to develop a good diet if you want better results!

In the beginning your body has all you need. It's later on that you'll feel that you wont have any more gains, so you need to adjust your diet.

everyone has the idea. when you are out of school, on your own, have extra money then buy supplements. The bodybuilders of old didn't have all the fancy supplements we have today and they still managed to put on muscle and get lean. No hydroxycut for them...just pushed away from the table!
