    Just a quick survey really...

    What are your favourite cutting supps and when do you take them..

    I am looking to go on a month long cut in about two weeks and have a couple of things ready so far:

    Thermopure
    Omega 3 6 9

    Looking to get some whey protein (Morning) and some milk protein (night) in bulk to last the month.

    My diet is good and I will be looking to intake less carbs and more fats and protein as well as starting a HIIT routine and also continuing with the weights regime I am currently doing but 1 less day a week....

    Is it worth keeping up the creatine whilst on a cut? Is it worth taking CLA or BCAA??

    Suggestions would be very helpful and greatly appreciated...

    tbh

    Weights and Cardio will be perfect for the first 6-8 weeks, if weight starts slowing down then consider maybe some Thermopure with Alcar

    As you increase cardio maybe add BCAA to prevent too much muscle breakdown

    im doing HIIT 3x a week and all going well so far and diet isnt even perfect

    only supplements i am taking is Liquid Fish Oils and Whey protein

    i use

    http://www.myprotein.co.uk/bulk-supp...5lb)-(refill)/

    best bang for buck flavoured whey

    Creatine is useful on cut, helps with maintaining some strength get powder though as its tasteless and cheaper

    If wanting a months supply then you'll need more BCAA's and ALCAR imo

    ALCAR should be split up into atleast 3doses during the day

    BCAA's would be best taken in high catabolic situations. Pointless having together with whey.

    Is there a reason you are going for omega 3 6 9 btw? Most people have plenty of omega 6 and 9 in their diet but lack omega 3, hence you supplement to redress the balance.

    When it comes to cutting the number 1 thing is DIET, DIET DIET DIET, work on getting this right first before you look at cutting supps, as without a decent diet and cardio/training the supps will do little.
