HYDROXYCUT:
This dietary supplement is rough on my body, especially the kidneys. After three cycles of this product (approximately 4 months, not taking the recommended 3x three times daily) dose my body begin to express signs of (abnormal) dehydration. Take a look at the ingredients and you can see that its more or less a caffeine pill on steroids. An interesting ingredient called White Willow extract is basically a natural form of aspirin. This strikes me as unusual and dangerous. Might explain why my kidneys were hurting. Another side effect is elevated heart rate due to the product design which lead to feeling paranoid and not my usual self. After not seeing results and the ill side effects I decided to stop using this product. I do not recommend this supplement as a means to weight loss.
CATALYST:
The idea behind this product is to shred body fat while preserving muscle during high intensity work outs. After taking this product I defiantly saw results without any negative side effects loosing around 15 lbs. Eventually I decided to research the ingredients as a means to finding a cheaper and perhaps better preforming supplement.
Genf20:
In search of different supplements I ran into a road block. I was turned on to the idea that certain supplements can possibly help your body increase the levels of HGH that are naturally secreted. Honestly, I didn't see any positive or negative impact on my body. This supplement seemed to work just like the Catalyst did at 2x the price.

Below are the supplements I take before workouts and on a daily basis.
Amino 1500:
This is the product that I have been searching for. If you notice the ingredients include branch chain amino acids and most if not all the ingredients of both the Catalyst and the Genf20 at a fraction of the cost. ($18.00 at Vitamin World)
One-a-day multivitamin/multimineral:
Also try Centrum Performance, it includes B Vitamins to increase energy.
Omega-3
There is a laundry list of benefits published about this supplement. Fatty acids aid in cardiovascular regulation, memory recall and so on. I recommend this supplement to any one.
Every body builder knows that taking creatine and whey protein are sure fire ways to bulk up and preform better, however; my goal is not to bulk up, but to better my overall performance, stay lean, and recover quicker. The last three supplements defiantly aid me in my goal.
