What's this? You apply it and don't eat it? Unaware of magnesium oil.

The 2 supps I feel the benefit from the most are Vit D and Magnesium powder (Natural Calm brand). I also take a thyroid supplement on the advice of my endocrinologist because I have an autoimmune disease. I think fish oil is worth taking but I'm not good at keeping up with supplementing it.

You apply it to your skin. About 16 sprays to shoulders, back, legs and soles of your feet. After 20 minutes you can wash it off or let it stay on. It dries. First couple of times if you're low, it might itch/tingle.

Blend a bit of watermelon and add salt to it. Drink that like 20 minutes before you workout. Veins will pop like crazy.

Citrulline malate is two compounds combined together, usually in a 2:1 ratio, 2 parts Citrulline 1 part Malic Acid.

Citrulline is a nitric oxide supplement which acts as a mild vasodilator. Malic acid is found in fruit. Citrulline Malate studies show improved workout performance and recovery. It works as part of pre-workout supplement, 6-8 grams of powder mixed in water.

With no flavoring it tastes acidic. I feel some energy from it, almost like caffeine but different.

Recent studies on Citrulline malate show no benefits to performance. While it helps remove ammonia and lactic acid, it did nothing to improve performance.

And it’s not longer bonded. They just throw the two together and mix.

You actually need a lot of actual L-Citrulline to get the volume effect and improve blood flow. It’s 6-10g based on level of lean mass

Generally regarded as safe and effective, and are legal? The following three are in my stack:

BCAA- Endurance, recovery, fat loss.

For maximum workout benefit: 5g pre-workout and 5g in workout water. It's effect is not persistent, so the times at which one takes it are important.

Creatine- Endurance, cognition, sleep.

It is persistent, so the time at which one takes it is unimportant. It does not have immediate effect. For quicker results some people pre-load by doubling-up for a week or two. I toss 5g into my morning re-hydration water.

Creatine will likely result in some weight gain, as it causes the muscles to absorb and retain more water. That is the mechanism by which it improves endurance.

Taurine- Recovery, fat loss, heart health, sleep

It is somewhat persistent, so the time(s) at which one takes it aren't terribly important. I toss ±1.5g into my morning re-hydration water and another ±1.5g into the water bottle I fill after my morning coffee, for a total of ±3g/day.

[color=red]If one is on BP medication be careful with Taurine. It can, and often does, lower BP.[color]I've read it may be contraindicated if one suffers from psoriasis or psoriatic arthritis.

Otherwise: None of the three I listed have any known adverse effects or adverse interactions with prescription medsof which I'm aware.

I have heard that creatine is just water weight and as soon as you stop using it you lose all your gains. I don't want to use anything crazy or borderline illegal so creatine seems like the go to for a guy like me. You saying it's scientifically proven and beneficial is encouraging. Is it really the best? I am hoping so

Creatine was clinically proven to help push more weight. The results are nothing amazing (like 5-10% average) but it’s consistently proven. As with anything related to weightlifting, progressive overload is what creates growth so pushing more weight is a win.

That's inaccurate.

Yes: Because creatine causes the muscles to retain more water (see my prior post), it may artificially add some bulk that will disappear at some point if (when) you stop taking it. But, in the meantime, if you use the increased endurance that results from taking it to build more muscle, that will stay.

Do you have links for some of these studies? I really appreciate it if you could post them. I use citrulline for the pumps mostly but I've always thought it does help with performance as well.

I've tried maybe almost a thousand products over the last two decades.

I'd probably say overall and not bodybuilding related, Kratom.
