Supplements
*You should always check with your doctor before using any supplement*
Q: What supplements do you take?
A: Supplements that I use and recommend include Shakeology, the Recovery Formula, Whey Protein, and Jack3d.
Q: What do you think of Shakeology?
A: I use Chocolate Shakeology every morning as my breakfast replacement meal. I absolutely love the fact that I am starting my day off with all the vitamins and minerals that I need for the entire day first thing.
Q: When should I take whey protein?
A: I recommend taking it once in the morning and right after your workout. If you’re taking the Recovery Formula, then take the whey an hour after you take that.
Q: Will whey protein make me fat?
A: Not at all! Whey protein is very important for muscle building, and the best protein that you can consume!
Q: When do you take the Recovery Formula?
A: You are supposed to take the Recovery Formula directly following the workout. It has the right balance of simple carbs and protein (4:1 ratio), and is essential for proper muscle recovery!
Q: What supplements should I take to gain mass?
A: When my Son Josh is trying to gain mass, he takes creatine, whey protein, Jack3d, and the Recovery Formula. Gaining mass has a lot to do with the timing of supplements and the proper diet!

When is the best time to take the supplements? Whey Protein, Jack3d and once I am satisifed will I be able to stop taking these supplements?
Brandon,
I personally take Shakeology and Jack3d before my workout. Jack3d helps to get me going in the morning since the only time I have to workout is 5:30 AM. Shakeology gives me the nutrition that helps get me thru the workout. After my workout, I take Beachbody’s Recovery Drink. This is what has worked for me. Brandon, I am giving out free samples of Shakeology to anyone that is serious about their fitness goals. Just follow the “Free Shakeology Samples” menu on this website. I will get you a free sample along with a great recipe. Very good and important question. Thanks!
