Cutting/Training Help

[metaphysik]

Hello I am 17 yrs old 5'8" about 160 pounds and I'm going to be working out in the summer and being very DEDICATED. I believe I have everything I need but I need help setting it up. My dad bought me "Cell mass" "No Xplode" "GNC brand whey protein" and "GNC multi vitamin". I eat fairly heathy now but in the summer i'll do it faithfully. I copied a workout from another member on this site that i may try but I was wondering can anyone tell me out of the products I have when and how much of them I should take? Also would it be dangerous if I took all of them at the same time?

EXAMPLE: "no xplode" before workout
"cell mass" after workout
"whey protein" with dinner or with a protein bar
"multi vitamin" after dinner

I'll do a routine similar to this and do cardio everyday with sunday an off day.

If anyone could help thanks and i'll be posting pictures of my progress

I think no-xplode is a waste of money, go read the posts about it over in the supplement section.

Cell Mass isn't anything special, you would be much better off getting regular creatine monohydrate next time.

The cell mass (and hopefully basic creatine in the future) should be taken post-workout. 5 grams daily is sufficent, no need to do a loading phase.

The whey should also be taken after you lift. If you are not getting enough protein from regular food, which you should try to be doing, another shake would be good in the morning or later in the evening/at night.

The multi-vitamin is best with breakfast, some people may recommend a little fat with breakfast if you are taking the multivitamin, but if you are starting a new routine you will need fat in your diet anyway, so no worries.

Thanks for the help. Do you think this routine will work?

Wake up
*Eat breakfast with multi-vitamin
Work (8am-1pm)
Cardio/basketball drills (everyday) [maybe with regular creatine]
The one exercise on that specific day (back, legs, arms ect)
*after workout take cell mass and regular creatine
*Sometime after that eat dinner with lots of protein and carbs


I did read some of the stuff on this board about the no xplode. I'm not looking to bulk up just cut up and be healthy. I'll just sell it back to the store then. But if anyone can tell me if this is a good routine or edit it so it better that'll be very helpful. Thanks

Is this a good routine?

Do the lifting at a separate time than any cardio. If not, try to put the cardio after the lifting.

No need for cellmass and creatine monohydrate. Sell the cell mass back, or finish it, and stick to regular creatine in the future.
