I have been working out from last 18 months and taking 3 supplements.
Creatine
Whey protein
BCCA
I have seen no result and I am above 40 years and struggling to lift weights.
I have seen no results in my shape and muscle gain. I feel more tired after workout.
Even if try to lift more weight I pull my muscles.
If you guys can recommend me some test booster which can help me to push more weights or any other supplements which can help me to get in shape and build more muscle.
I hope someone can recommend me some supplements and how much, how long and when to take.

You can add a quality multi-vitamin and foods that are rich in zinc and magnesium. Zinc and magnesium are key minerals to help your body create it's own testosterone.

Honestly, skip the booster and stop adding supplements for right now.
If you aren't seeing results after 18 months, then you need to modify your diet and/or workout routine.
Once you get those dialed in, then I would worry about supplementation.**********************

There really aren't enough details in your post to understand your situation but, and even though it may be hard to hear.. Supplements aren't the start to end solution for putting on size and gaining strength.
The way you frame this post makes me feel like you really rely on supplements to get the changes you're looking for. What you really should be focusing on is
1. Maintaining a caloric surplus
2. Following a good routine with progressive overload
3. Getting enough rest
It sounds like I'm regurgitating an earlier post but these are 3 of the most important factors for gaining size and strength. Supplements have their place but do not replace any of the 3 above points.The only way to do something is to do it

Preworkout blueberries, amirite?
OP, BCAAs are pointless if you're meeting your macro and redundant as hell if you're using protein powder.
Protein power is not magic muscle fertilizer, it's just powdered food that you can use to help meet your macros if you need the help.
Creatine is great, but like most newer folks you're overestimating it's value. It's great, but again, not magic. Maybe an extra rep or two versus not using.
Supplements don't make nor break success. You're lacking success because either your diet sucks or your training is bad. A "test booster" is not going to fix your issues.
If your diet and training suck, no supplement in the world is going to fix that."I'm pretty sure your wrong, but care to elaborate..."

Test booster is certainly not your answer! Too many variables left out. I sent you a PM!

OP,
You've been training for 18 months and your title reads, No results after taking supplements
This sounds like a bigger issue than supplements, how often are you training? and after 3 months you should of seen some improvementsalienshave.com - Shave Smarter
