[QUOTE="OSU Blue, post: 178826"] If you look in the 'General Rugby' forum, there's a subject up top by a company called Nutrioutlet. They say they're a licensed nutritionist, and after some extensive questions regarding several supplements, I'm fairly confident in their credibility. You can ask him all you want, and he'll answer. My opinion: both are outstanding supplements. Protein is what repairs and rebuilds muscle, that's it. Testosterone also does so, but to use that you need a syringe (steroids). the general rule ive come across is 1.5 grams of protein per pound you weigh every day (so if you weigh 150 lbs, then take 225 grams of protein per day). also, to my understanding, your body can only take in about 50 grams of protein at a time, any more and it is discarded and wasted. the body does not store excess protein. ive also used creatine since i was 16 and started lifting. it puts on weight quickly, but it's a lot of water weight. i like it, and it's not expensive, so i use it. also, im not sure what you're built like, or what you want to look like, but you may want to consider looking into a weight gainer. you'll take that rather than a protein shake. it will be loaded with calories and carbohydrates as well as protein. i just know when i was 15 i was very lean, and this helps put on overall size, but as long as your active, it wont make you fat at all or anything.. everyone has their own opinion on this topic, so research it, and ask all the questions you can... not sure what 'answer' you are looking for exactly, but that's what i think on the two subjects. i have no experience with Cyclone from Maximuscle..
