Hi everyone, my name is teddy and I'm turning 20 on late-dec this year. I'm real skinny and underweight (163cm,45kg) and would like to bulk up a little bit to look better (maybe like a model?).

I have started gym-training for about 3 months and results are seen. however, i dont think I have grown bigger at all. I have never tried supplements before and would like to know more about the following:-

1. what is the differences between Protein Whey, Creatine & Mass Gainer?

2. According to my photos in my signature & profile, which type of supplements should I take?

Frequency & Intensity has no problem to me. Exercises & workout is fine with me but I have total no idea about supplements.

My friend told me that I should take Mass Gainer. So anyone mind enlighten me about my queries?

PS: i have done research over the internet at bodybuilding.com about which age should take which supplements but the link wasnt available now...

Supplements "supplement or compliment" a solid DIET and training program. I could recommend a fist-full of supplements for you, but they won't give you the results you want.

If you could post your diet and training routine, I can put a hundred times more mass on you than telling you which supplements to take.

BTW, I've been to Singapore before.. Beautiful place, very clean.

to be honest, nope, maintaining almost the same weight.

make sure you have a solid diet first, then work in your supplements to help aid those goals, give you a boost pre-workout, and to speed up recovery! They're called supplements for a reason, so you need a solid foundation first.
Whey protein is a great supplement to help you achieve your protein requirements and is convenient if you're always on the go. Creatine is also a staple supp with a lot of people. It has lots of positive research behind it and is one of the most concrete supplements to take in helping put on lean mass. If you're a hard gainer, you can look at a weight gainer to help you reach your caloric intake goals, however try to get as much whole foods as possible!!
Cheers
