Default New to supplements - a lil advice please !

Hi, I need some advice on supplements.

Im 20, weigh 12.5 stone, fast metabolism, and dont have a fantastic knowledge of supplements. Diet is OK - I'm a full time student so I do my best to get a decent intake of protein each day..

I train with weights 4 times a week, for 1.5 hour sessions and I seem to have hit a limit...I cant put on any more weight. Im looking for muscle and size.

So... initially i thought Id get myself 3-4 tubs of maximuscle progain / cyclone , but after flicking through these forums, quite frankly Im confused - many of you are combining what seems to be higher quality substances, for cheaper - which makes sense !

Therefore, with a budget of £100-£130 ( ...Student...) could anyone recommend a protein / creatine mix or better alternative to the progain / cyclone - that will last me 2-3 months, for the purpose I need ? Links and instructions on use would be... greatly appreciated !

Apologies if all this info is elsewhere...but theres SO much to know... its like a degree in itself =)

Cheers,
Criss

If you act sanctimonious I will just list out your logical fallacies until you get pissed off and spew blasphemous remarks.

Since I was curious when i read this, I figure I may as well add for anyone reading who doesn't know (i didn't) that 12.5 stone is 175 lbs., the supplement he mentioned is

this, and 130 euros is about 180 dollars.

just in case anyone's interested. i always wondered what a stone was...

Ok so instead of the wieght gainer, just pick up some Whey protien, some dextrose and maltodextrin, and some good old creatine monohydrate. That should do the trick.
