I dunno just as big and toned as I can get w/o juice (thats a big no no) heh.. I have the funding for whatever Supps I can get ahold of.. Just need a "shopping list" of stuff to get, and help starting a routine..

hi, I am very pleased when I encounter such enthusiasm in someone regardless of what it is connected with.
I've been training hard for two years now and have made quite a progress during the last few months as I started to use supplements. Besides, I have read a lot of bodybuilding magazines and books and consider myself familiar with bodybuilding stuff.
since you've not been training for so long, I think it will be best for you to start a month's workout for the whole body, including mailnly basic stuff - like bench presses, squats, pulldowns, etc. so that your body can get used to exercise again. In my opinion 3 workouts per week will be best for the beginning. Then you can train 4 or 5 times per week and I think you will be able to do so as you say you have enough money to spend on supplements.
An example program looks like this:
day1 - shoulders and triceps
day2- back and traps
day3- off
day4-chest and biceps
day5- legs including calves

As for the supplements, there are thousands of kinds of them on the market, so it's mainly up to you to decide what suits you best. However, I may give you some advice what to buy.
1. Whey protein is probably the best protein on the market at present. Take one scoop right after you get out of bed in the morning, so that you stop the catabolic processes that take place during the night. Take another scoop (appr. 30g) 30-45 minutes before workout and 2 scoops right after workout.
2. If you can afford it, you may also take glutamine and creatine 45 minutes before and right after workout according to the guidelines on the pack and also around 5 g of glutamine before you go to bed
3. Take around 40-50g of egg and/or milk protein before going to bed.
4. As for aminoacids, there is a big variety of them but I think that Universal's 5300 is a good choice.
5. It is also recommendable that you take multivitamins (which you already do) that are rich in vitamins and minerals.

There is a lot more to tell you about supplements but I think these will make the difference you want to see in just 3 or 4 months.

Good luck and I hope that I have been useful!

cool thanks for the info, couple things though

I AM in fact in the air force, so im pretty physically fit, we are required a certain amount of physical conditioning weekly.. so my body is used to exercise..

as for supps I plan to take the protein and vitamins and creatine, no doubt. Have you heard anything about lip 6 or hydroxycut? how about animal stackers for vitamins?

do you have any messenger programs you can IM me on them..

thanks!

You should get yourself a good solid routine and diet first, then wory about the supplements.

As for a good solid diet, I recommend you take a look at the nutrtion section, it gives you great advice, and the know hows...
