    When it comes to deciding which supplements to take and at what age to start taking them, I felt there was a need for an official supplement checklist. Something that could be used as a guide for years to come that would help you decide which workout supplements and vitamins were going to be helpful to you, specific to your goals and your age. Here we are going to cover what Amazon has determined are the top 14 categories of supplements according to the popularity of them based on those people using them.
    We start the list off where many people start off their day, with a multi-vitamin. This is something that I look at as an insurance policy for covering the broad gaps in your not so perfect nutrition plan is creating right now. The issue with many multi-vitamins is that they are almost too broad, including many times vitamins and minerals that conflict with the absorption of one another in the same pill. That said, they are remarkably safe and are popular amongst all of the age groups covered in this video (and even those younger than discussed).
    Next up we have specialty vitamins. This is best determined by identifying specific deficiencies via either a blood panel or obvious signs and symptoms, and then addressing them with individual vitamins and micronutrients. This includes things like vitamin D, iron, potassium, vitamin C, etc. There are many causes of nutrient deficiency, but the most important thing is that you don’t ignore yours if they are present.
    Next we have to talk about protein powder. This is the most popular workout supplement on the market by far, for good reason. We can all agree that having enough protein in our diets is critical to building the most amount of muscle possible from our workouts. I actually don’t view protein supplements as supplements, but rather as an alternate source of protein to chicken, beef or fish. In fact, it is most of the time the most convenient way for us to make sure we’re hitting our daily protein requirements of around 1 gram per pound of bodyweight. The key here is choosing a high quality formula. ATHLEAN-Rx Pro-30G is at the top of the heap when it comes to this. It’s made from only the highest quality sources of protein and has an industry leading 30 grams of protein in every serving. You can find it at the link above.
    Continuing on, we hit a run of three closely related supplements in purpose that are very different from each other in function and safety. This includes TRT, SARMS and Testosterone Boosters. First of all, the first two are so readily available and used these days that they have become almost confused by many, especially the younger population, that they act as if they are on a par with protein. These are not. They are medically prescribed substances and in the case of SARMS, not even medically approved for healthy use.
    Back to the more traditional supplements we discuss the use of melatonin. This natural sleep aid is safe for all ages but must be used in proper dosages and is therefore best that you get the advice of your physician. That said, the increased use of electronics and devices late at night create sleep disturbances due to the over exposure to blue light. Rather than turn to a supplement to help you sleep better you’d be better off following the advice of Dr. Andrew Huberman who suggests that getting early sunlight exposure every morning can help to restore normal circadian rhythms and more restful sleep.
    Turning back to the workout supplements we have to address creatine. Notice I didn’t point out the specific form of creatine since there are so many. Whether you take creatine monohydrate, creatine hcl or even buffered creatine, they all work the same and have the same end result - improved force and power generation in every workout, faster replenishment of ATP, increased intramuscular hydration and increased muscle size. The determining factor between taking one form or another has to do with the potential for bloating or gut disturbance that some experience with monohydrate. If that is you, you should look into taking creatine HCL which has a higher absorbability and can be taken in lower dosages (2-3 grams vs 5 grams for monohydrate).

      I love Jeff but this list, and video seems scant on info, and not very complete. I get he has multivitamins in there but he left out addressing some basic ones such as zinc, magnesium, k2 and vit D. I feel those topics and perhaps a few others warrant addressing separately. Also, I think collagen should be addressed in this video. I would also like to hear what Jeff has to say about NMN and polyphenols such as resveretrol. While not categorized as a supplement I'd also be curious what he thinks of taking metformin as a non diabetic . Anyways my point is that this video is definitely not all encompassing and I have found many others that would serve the purpose you suggested in your comment.

      The other things you mentioned are up in the air as far as I'm aware. Certain internet scientists may say with certainty that taking those things will promote benefits, but there isn't enough solid data out there yet, or the data that we've got might be on rodent studies which might not be relevant.

      ​@Sharry Puri I think it's pretty self explanatory what ppl mean when they say they're not trying to be a body builder (excess muscle for aesthetic purpose) which straight away takes half the supplements on this list away. Fat burners, intra workouts, SARMS, TRT, Creatine are not necessary if you're just trying to be healthy with a normal body weight range. No need to feel offended by other people's usage of a term that is quite normal to explain your goals.

      I think a better way to phrase to “workout culture” would be “fitness industry”, which constantly tries to upscale you on things, even the things you don’t need, because it’s an industry. The trick is determining the difference between the fitness industry and just plain fitness. I imagine most people want just plain fitness, but then when they start looking into fitness, the industry muscles its way in (pun intended) and overwhelms them, thereby turning them off from getting into a better shape than their current state.

    If nobody has said it yet, please listen. When you are starting a regimen of creatine, do not follow the instructions on the bottle and load the creatine the first couple weeks. This can cause stomach issues that taking a regular 5g scoop every day will not cause. Just start 5g a day and let it work into your system. After a couple of weeks you will be under it’s effect anyway. God bless

It's important to understand everything as one interacting system. I think it's important that young people understand no matter how much caffeine or protein testosterone or whatever they take all dependent on how everything functions together as a system.

    The good news is, my body remembers, and I’m getting back to previous strength levels.
    The greatest thing about this presentation is your assessment that fat loss drugs will cause loss of lean body mass, which tells me not to got there, even though I’m entering consultations with medical weight management next month.
    I’m prepared to turn that down if it’s offered, and Thank You for the heads up!

You'll come across a ton of postings of people expressing their appreciation to him for improving their long-term knee issues. In my case, I was diagnosed with IT band syndrome a month ago and immediately saw the difference when I incorporated his program. Specifically sled pulls and pushes.

      About glucosamine the consensus seems to be it helps your body rebuild/repair cartilege.
      The jury is out on collagen peptides but many report benefits in joint recovery.
      They both seem safe to ingest and might be beneficial but in the end I'm just a random internet dude so please consult a specialist before deciding anything, especially when it comes to younger people who may or may not have the physical awareness yet to sense something is off.

Never did any drugs, barely ever drank, bodyfat was around 13-14%, worked out for years, ate generally healthy, no health problems etc. Needless to say I jumped on my first cycle not long after that.

      That’s weird, I’ve abused opioids, phenibut, kratom, adderall, gabapentin, you name it for years and years, I was even on suboxone for 3 years and I got tested and my test & free test levels were the highest they had ever been (720 NG).
      I’m finally substance free other than caffeine as of 3 months ago and I started working out again and I’ve gained muscle faster than I ever have.
      Everyone is different, I doubt it was the opioids that permanently altered your test levels as that’s very uncommon. Opioids are definitely known to lower test levels while your on them, but their not known to permanently alter test.

    So here’s a suggestion, I pay $400 -$500 per month on food. Start your own meal plan. I know you have one that tells you what to cook, but if you can work out a good partnership, and create one that will not have to make me cook (or at least have all the ingredients there for me, you’ll be getting $560 -$660 per month from me instead of just the $160.
