Why not just supplement it? It's not a magic formula by any means, but it does give your body more resources for more energy to work your muscles harder. It's like having enough protein to grow on, enough water to stay hydrated, or enough poon for your wanger. It's cheap, safe, and often effective. Just head down to GNC on super Tuesdays and buy the clearance marked ones that are near shelf date. I picked up 6 months worth for 20 bucks.
