My advice...
eat a balanced meal before your workout.. drink a 20g serving of protein shake during the workout, and have a snack afterwards if you're hungry.

I'm taking the upper GNC vitamins... the ones above the Mega Men's. However, I AM working out 3-4 times a week, plus ball hockey 3 times a week and my 1-2 times a week hour-long skates.

I've resolved that next week I'll start back on my protein shakes, now that I am comfortable with how I feel and that I'm settling back into my gym rhythm. Plus, I found out there's a weekly drop-in ball hockey game every Monday night at the gym. SWEET! That and I haven't even swam yet.

I find creatine to be not worth experimenting with... although I haven't taken it before. Between my diet, protein shakes and consistent training, I'll get where I want to be.

Plus, it makes for a great night out... a workout, supper at the Subway right in the same building complex and then movie night at the base auditorium (free admission for gym members, $1 popcorn and $1.50 drinks).
