What are the most important supplements for a cut?

[thatoneguy1313]

So there is this summer job that I had lined up and I was positive that I was going to get it. Lots of money (for a high schooler), $15 an hour. I made all these plans for getting supplements, decided how much I was going to spend on them. I didn't get the job. I have two jobs that I did get (im on the wait list for one, long story) but I will not be getting nearly as much on these two jobs. So finally to my question: what are your most important supplements for a cut? I don't really know my budget yet, so if you could list your top 10 or 12 I would appreciate it. All supplements including the obvious ones like whey and creatine. Please don't tell me that I don't need supplements, as I have already decided to take them. Thanks for your input.

Just realized that I put "for a cut" in the title. I just meant what are the most important supps while on a budget. Don't know why I put for a cut in the title. Sorry about that.

Whey and creatine. Nothing else.
BCAAs for a psychological boost if anything. Can't beat Xtend.

You don't need any supplements on a cut.

If you want to invest in some useful things...

- Fish Oil
- Coffee
- Multi

Any other suggestions?

Depends on your budget and lifestyle. With a good diet the only think I'd recommend is creatine. The most experienced dude at my gym doesn't recommend whey because it gets people to be a bit lazy and substitute real food with whey. It's not bad per se and I recommend it myself but make sure to use it in moderation ie post workout and rely on protein sources from food.

Whey/casein.. drinkable protein basically, only if you aren't meeting your daily protein target though obviously. Creatine too, nice and cheap for the most part!

Why casein? Op is on a budget. You can get good casein from Quark - it's cheap as fuark and it's 18g protein/100g

Probably because their both proteins?

Thanks for the answers. I think I'm gonna go with whey, creatine, bcaas, a multi and possibly a fish oil.
