Anyone here tried cutting out all supplements and only relying on base ingredients? No creatine, no whey etc just eggs, rice, meat, etc

Was your performance impacted for the worse or the better?

You could do this. It would be expensive and time consuming to prep all the meat you'd need though.

Modern day supplements are waste product placebos that barely do anything. Protein powders come from waste, creatine is chemically synthesized in a lab from products that would otherwise kill you, preworkouts are caffeine bombs that adrenalize you.
You can get everything you need from your natural diet of eggs, fish, meat and fruit.

I've cut whey several times before. No matter how I try to eat more protein my recovery gets significantly worse.

without l-tyrosine i'm a fucking mess

Im highly suspicious of supplements even tho I take them daily. I wouldn't be surprised if I just stopped all supplements and didnt notice any difference whatsoever
>>
>>77246441
wtf are you talking about
I dont take any of that shit.
>>
>>77246441
Yes
I started doing way better, better absorption, better feeling better everything
ALL supplements are placebo trash and if you're deficient in something you need to fix your diet instead of buying jewish pharma tasteless candy pills

it takes me like 3 hours to cook a pork shoulder in my instantpot and its enough for a week

I don't take supps and I am 100% natty and been lifting almost 3 decades later and I'm still getting gains. The only "extra" I take is drinking a coffee sometime before going to gym.

Whey isn't really a supplement, it's food. Chicken breast tastes better and is better for you. I find it easier to eat 50g protein in chicken breast than get down a 50g shake.

You can get everything you meat from a purely vegetarian diet
>>
Antivaxx tier crazy itt, supps are good and fine
>>
Are they necessary? Absolutely not
But theyre really convenient, which is why many people use them.
You can go through hoops and loops to hit your macros and micros goals, but its easier to cover the gaps (or help reach certain goals) with supps.
For example, adding some protein powder to some yogurt its more convenient (and economic) than eating more meat, for me at least.

jews hate this man

Vast majority of people who consume this stuff are your average gym goer who doesn't put on the time nor the effort for any of this to make the slightest difference.
>>
>>77246441
Yes I have. But can be tricky. Just do stoneage diet with modern modification. Dont forget your fermented foods.
>>
>>77246441
Cut my whole stack down to only vit D during the winter. Haven't noticed much difference but I also eat pretty clean. Might start magnesium again and see if it helps my recovery
>>
>>77246740
Freudian slip lol? Just eat a burger dude
>>
>>77246763
Yes they do. Oy vey
>>
>>77246441
Am I the only one who thinks creatine gives an unpleasant watery look to one's physique?
>>
>>77246441
Yes. I'm the guy on more supps than Smaev, and I feel like a tired weak normie then, kek.
