My supplement list:

Whey Protein Isolate
Creatine Monohydrate
BCAA 5000
Pre Workout (C4)
Fish Oil
Niacin

They're just supplements. I'm not expecting great results from them on their own, but I am seeing improvements in strength and stamina while my recovery time has been reduced as well.

I lift by myself at the gym, but will go just heavy enough to not require a spotter. I rarely max out because it fricks with my next lift, but I understand that's a good way to make gains. It just doesn't suit me well because I like lifting on my own in the range of 5-10 reps for upper body, and 10 or more reps for legs.

That's not that many I guess. Just seems exhausting.

What I like to do is heavy compounds at the beginning in the 3x5 range sometimes 3x3. After that, I do higher rep ranges to get the blood flowing and hypertrophy. I'm usually tired after my compounds so I work with lower weights and focus on the eccentric portion of the movements. Really has done wonders for my strength. Since my strength is up, I can do heavier hypertrophy specific training.
