Im 16 and want to build up for football

johnson64 Posts: 4 Joined: 2008/07/23	2008/07/23, 11:55 PM Hello everybody. My name is Paul. I am a Defense of tackle on varsity at my highschool. I am around 250 lbs. I can not even bench press 160. I can however deadlift 400-500 lbs. That is where my strength is. I have a body I am most shamefull of. I need to loose weight, and gain strength. I have tried EVERYTHING. Plain, right eating. DiDnt work. My mom says i have a slow matabulism. She is also far over weight. I am not trying to be mean, but thats the truth. I don't want to be like this. I am at the ends of my ropes when it comes to this. I'm going to be a Junior and I am shy as anything. I have no Self-confidence. It's summer and I want to be bigger and leaner. It's not just for my appearance, but to better myself in football. I need to be faster and stronger. I have seen websites like http://www.anaboliceurope.com and have read dangers of these steroids. I will not stoop down to a level of taking steroids. I do however need a suppliment or something to help me. I just CAN NOT do it on my own. I have looked at Thermogain ( http://global-nutrition-inc.com/mt-143.html ) and Hydroxicut ( http://global-nutrition-inc.com/mt-186.html ). I have come to a conclusion. I will start taking something. My freinds take creatine. They seem to get bigger and bigger. Also, i hear there are very minimal risks while taking it. I hear that you will experience syptoms if u exceed the recommended dose. I happened upon this. http://www.muscletech.com/products/shredded_stack/science.shtml This says it can help you loose weight and gain muscle. I need advice on this subject. Should i go along with one of these products, or is there anything better out there? Remind you, I am almost in a DESPERATE state.

However, you still seem dumb and excited, a supplement companies best friend. So I will say it again: You DO NOT NEED a supplement. Training right and eating right WILL WORK. There is NOBODY that can't do it without supplements. STOP being "desperate". That said, most of us here do use various supplements. However, in almost every case, the people that think they NEED supplements are the ones that SHOULDN'T be taking anything.

How much protein do you eat a day? How much water do you drink? If you can't answer these questions off the top of your head (for the most part) then you need to get all of these in order before saying that you NEED supplements.
Pensfan Posts: 484 Joined: 2008/03/14	2008/07/25, 11:45 AM there are very few supplements that actually do what they say. some good ones are creatine whey and various weight gainers. i know firsthand hydroxycut don't work a friend of mine decided to try it and gained 3 lbs in 3 months. a lot of people like animal stack let me guess you went to hydroxycuts site saw a ton of good reviews and it instantly hooked you. those people took hydroxycut but they lost the weight by working their ass off.
