    Diet whey first thing in the morning with skimmed milk
    Multivitamins and fish oil capsule with my first solid meal of the morning/day
    A pre and intra/post workout supplement shakes (low calorie, packed with amino acids) and a Micellar Casien shake just before bed.

    The shakes are from Bodybuilding Warehouse here in the UK, amazing products and fantastic value for money.

    I use protein powders provided they are very low in carbs (roughly 25 grams protein per scoop) to boost pre-and post-workout needs. An omega3 supplement when possible. I also use supplements for pre workout energy boost containing caffeine and synephrine. I would have used ephedrine but it was banned in 2004 and synephrine similar (but low volume) effect without the stress. Other than that I could pop in a vitamin or two if they are available. I have recently found and enjoy a supplement called whiteheat that has yohmbine in it apart from caffeine and amino acids and that keeps you pumped and ready to go at it for many hours. I dont suggest such supplements though to those who have no experience with stimulants.

    I take calcium if I find I haven't had enough for the day. Also, vitamin D because I live in Seattle and my doctor always recommends it.

    Good multivitamin, b-vitamin complex, and omega oil supplement. Recently enough I've started taking vitamin d, but shall finish out the little bottle before deciding whether its worth adding to the above three regularly.
