not including Whey, then I wouldn't say I spend that much

maybe about £150 a year

I do spend more when budget allows

I was including protein though mate, this is probably the largest part of anyones supplement spend, so definately add this in :-)

£300-£400 a year then

That's more like it

Well including Whey I also have a casein mix for night time, milled oats to make my MRP shakes, fish oils, cissus, glucosamine, multi vit.

Creatine is something I have every now and then but don't really bother so I guess just under £100 a month. Hard to tell though as I bulk buy to save money in the long run.

£60 a month (2 x 2,27kg tubs).

I also get thro about 10-20kg chicken, 5-10kg white fish, 300+ eggs, 24 pints of milk etc etc. Its just another source of protein to me.

And damned tasty to boot with the likes of Gaspari (in part thanks to BBW who supplied it form me, quickly as ever!).

What's worth the price is always worth the fight...

Yeah I also bulk buy, and tend to spend around the same as you mate, £100 per month.
I suppose when you compare it other things that we spend our money on, in th grand scheme of things it's not actually that bad. Could have a night on the beer which would cost £100, and tht certainly aint gonna give us any nutrients!

Ha yer, a night out in London is close to £100. On cycle now and from just not drinking I've paid off my credit card so sups really are a minor expense. I would even say going on cycle, not drinking and buying sh*t loads of sups to really make it an awesome cycle is still cheaper than just buying a few and drinking!

I am spending around £60 a month on Whey powder and then another £30 on Glucosamine. This is based on what ive spend the first half of this month that will last me through... I hope.

Still less than half what I was spending on cigs :) Money well spent.

Vista

I think some of you do some very expensive shi..s.

I've been training for a year and I only use Reflex Instant Whey as a supplement. I think it's important to understand that supplement means in addition not a replacement.

I eat lots of eggs, chicken and tuna and sometimes steak.

I train at home 3 times a week and my 18" arms are an indicator I must be doing at least something about right. I'm 5'11, 14 stone and 40 years old.

I don't want to give the wrong impression as I'm not one for measurements and I only know my arm size as my wife measured them when she was measuring my wrist in preparation for a new oversized watch.
My indication of progress is my wardrobe, i've gone up 2 shirt sizes since I began.

training a year and you have 18" arms at 14st and your wife measured them!? i bet you have a 12" co(k too and she measured that! lol

About £100/month. For oats, protein powders (whey, PWO and prebed), and preworkout formulas. Spend much more on meats for the month though!

I have no problem with this as it's something I enjoy buying/using and feel I get long term value from it. £1000/year is nothing for the amount of value I get out of it - compared to my ****ing rent/car/uni fees which total close to £10k/year.

This month ive spent nothing, i dont use supplements consistently i simply buy them when i have the money. For me, ive found they make zero difference to my physique, when im on whey protein and creatine i notice no difference to my body or training than when i take oats and peanuts lol.

oh id say about £30-£50 a month.

This gives me endless supply of whey and casein shakes (for me) and MRP's.

I take multivits, Vits :E, C, Cod Oil, Echnciea, zinc + magnsiem (all from tescos) \so cheap.

Caffine,taurine, gaurna for stimulants.

And when off cycle, Beta Aline, AAKG and a few others.

Currently I don't take anything pre-workout so I wouldn't mind trying something like superpump.
