What are or is the best body-building supplements out there for working out?

I’m just trying to find the best product out there on the market today in the areas of body building. As far as what really, and truly works for body building. Now I don’t plan on going all out like those professionals do, but I do want to lose weight, gain muscle, etc. etc. Tell me, what do you think is out there that is safe, reliable, works, etc etc?

Answer:

ill tell you the secret… WHOLE FOODS. supplements are sh*t compared to real food. But, there are some good performance supplements like creatine and ZMA. Whey protein wont hurt you, but alot of it goes down the toilet.

Try these.

BCAA supplement before and after workout
ZMA
Creatine
Tribulus (maybe)

Tax deductible for expenses related to body building context?

I have participated to body building competition in 2007 and won number two in the trial states. Will I be able to deduct the training related expenses for tax deduction?

If I could, what other related expenses that I could deduct (such as vitamin, etc)? This competition is not professional, it is for amateur.

Thank you!

Answer:

Hobby income goes on line 21 of the 1040.
Hobby expenses–limited to the amount of winnings–go on schedule A as an itemized deduction. Vitamins are not going to count as an expense.

If there are no winnings, you cannot deduct any expenses.
