Best supplements to preserve muscle while cutting?

[Sebass67]

What are they? I have been considering the ANPB diet posted by Mr.X, i bulked up a ton this offseason and i am sitting a little too heavy at 294...wanna be around 280 come season...but don;t wanna lose the hard earned muscle...i am prob ...20 something% bf...guessing....

L-Glutamine, and tons of protein is what im doing in the same situation, so far it seems to be working.

A nice e/c stack would compliment X's ANPB diet very well (and would work well to preserve maximal lean mass).

Yeah i am weird man...295 pds...maybe more after easter! But i am so damn PARANOID about losing mass and strength...i might just save some $$$ go real hardcore and go...ANPB, ECA, and fonz's diet stack...R-ala/cla/alcar/GT extract...

Would carbs before and after workouts kill the plan?

I have no idea how long i would be able to sustain that kind of plan either. But i think it would be damn fun to try.

Also, i hear creatine has a muscle sparing effect...so i would prob be taking 10 g post workout...can't hurt...

Then there is the glutamine thing..Beyond a century will be my fav place to be!

Creatine will salvage your strength while cutting. I def recommend it, 5g preworkout, 5g postworkout, 5g later on in the day if necessary. I've never used Glutamine, but too many people say it's a waste of money, and I have yet to see a study where Glutamine was used on healthy athletes (they are usually done on people in the hospital suffering from burns, etc). Throw in a fat burner towards the end to get rid of the stubborn layers of fat ... keep protein intake as high as possible to keep the muscle. Good luck bro

Clen, glutamine peptides, NO cardio, and a good diet.

Ditch the CLA, its worthless.

Can't really go with Clen, too scared to get caught with the stuff in my system...
ie i play college ball.
