I'm new to this site and new to building.

First a little about myself. My name is Ryan Watson, but most people just call me wotson. I'm 19 and I started about half a year ago but got sucked out of the scene due to my g/f not liking me getting big.. So after realising that was a stupid mistake I got back into it. I'v been doing it for about 3 weeks now and i'm already starting to see improvments in my body.
I was directed here by my freind Skelooth. So any basic advice for a n00b like myself?

**skelooth** · 04-17-2006, 02:48 AM

Also if any of you guys from the UK could recommend where he can buy some protein and stuff at online?

Eat eat eat! :eat: Lots of chicken, oatmeal, and natural peanut butter. Mark my words you will grow like a weed

**DJSTARER** · 04-17-2006, 03:06 AM

yeah. eat. I also believe Skel made a nice commond noob questions thread in the fat loss section. That thread rocks.

Welcome. Any questions, just ask. I'm sure u'll find the best possible answers here.

Don't forget your multi

Well first things first. I'm actually looking to get protein stuff from in the UK (as skel said) It seems to be pretty hard to come by. So if anyone can advise me on where to look or just point me in the right direction that would be great

hey mate, good to have you here.

Are you looking for bulk powders or brand stuff? I'll put together a little list of online sites for you.

Well, i'm not sure if there are any GNC's in the United Kingdom, but GNC (General Nutrition Center) is a great place in Canada (And I am fairly certain the United States of American as well) in which you can purchase from a wide variety of protein for pretty reasonable prices. You can ask your friends if they know of a local GNC, or keep your eyes open. I'll see if google turns up anything.

EDIT: Well thats a shame, they are stationed in a lot of countries but it doesn't seem like the UK is on the list. http://www.gnc.com/corp/index.jsp?pa...pnav_store_txt Perhaps you can mail-order from the nearest store?

Or of course if you don't mind a bit of a wait there are great providers here at IronMass.

For cheaper, more generic stuff;

www.bulkpowders.co.uk
www.sports-nutrition.net
www.myprotein.co.uk

For branded stuff;

www.cheapuksupplements.co.uk
www.monstersupplements.com
www.suppshop.co.uk
www.discount-supplements.co.uk
www.supplementplanet.co.uk

there are a lot more, but these are the places I've used before and trust.
