    Buying an opened and partially used tub of supplements is probably the dumbest thing I've ever heard.

    Agreed. Also, even if unopened, there's that much stuff there that I'd wager a bet that the buyer would train consistently having bought such a big stack, would gain and wouldn't have a clue what supplement, if any, helped him.

    Looks like it's for someone trying to cut (fat burners and thermogenics) whilst gaining (Amino Acids and Creatine).

    I'm a non-believer in fat burners and thermogenics nor do I believe it's a good idea to try to lose weight whilst gaining muscle. I know it's much slower doing things that way anyway.

    For my €120, I think I'd stick with myProtein and 5kg of flavoured whey and 1kg of BCAA if cutting or 5kg of flavoured whey, 5kg of Dextrose, 1kg of Creatine and 500g of Glutamine if bulking. Represents a much better buy in my opinion.

    To answer your original question, the stack I'll be starting soon will be:

    Whey Protein Concentrate
    Waxy Maize Starch
    Creatine
    Glutamine
    Leucine

    I bought the separate ingredients to mix together for my Post Workout shake because it's cheaper and I can use it when cutting or bulking (just vary how much waxy maize starch I use). I can also remove the Waxy Maize Starch or vary the shake in other ways on non-workout days if I choose to do so.

    In buying enough ingredients for 100 shakes, the above works out at about €1.60 per serving for 50g Protein, 50g WMS, 10g Glutamine, 5g Creatine and 5g Leucine. It actually works out a lot cheaper for me because I ordered using the UK site and price beat service.
