    hey all i know this may seem silly to some (all) but i am nervous about taking supplements,

    I am 76kg 23 180cm , I was 110kg and lost loads of weight, so i am nervous that taking supplements equals extra carbs and calories and i will put back on weight, I know this may seem silly,

    I train 4-5 times a week, I bought Maximuscle Creatamax Extreme today,
    should i use it, i wanna put on muscle, put i still have a bit of a belly i loe to get rid of,

    Should i try to loose more weight first and then take supplements?

    You will need to be aware of the extra calories and factor that into your daily deficit. As for the carbs, it is possible to get very low carb whey powders (I get mine at www.myprotein.co.uk)

    Also, only take the supps when you need them ie: Post work out or perhaps some whey with your oats in the morning.

    more important question - post up your current training program - weights in particualar.

    Creatine would have been the last supplement i would have recommended. Fish oils and a good whey protein powder are vital
