n large... is that one of those "bulk up" supplements that are filled with calories and not much else?

The whey is definitely a good idea especially before the workout. As for the workout, I would do slightly less reps (eg 6-8 not 10-12) especially to gain mass but looks good to me otherwise...

As for the Multi-Vitamin.... I wouldn't worry about it as long as your diet is pretty much ok... try and get most of your protein and carbohydrates from your diet.... Then you won't need multivitamins and stuff like that.

You should really figure out how much grams of protein/carbohydrates/fat you are going to aim for per day.
If you post up some stats like height/weight/body fat %, we can help tell you what kind of amounts to go for....

Good luck with the programme.. hope it works.

Man, Vindy, you are getting around 15 or more sets per body part. Unless you an enhanced athlete you run a very big risk of overtraining. I wouldn't keep this up for very long. Can you get out of the gym in an hour with that program?

Use the n-large post workout. The excess carbs will be good for recovery. I would use the whey at other times during the day.

TwinLabs makes reputable products. Haven't used their daily vitamin but it should be good. I highly recommend taking a daily multi vitamin mineral tab. Also load up on the anti-oxidants. With the load you will be punishing yourself with you will need them. Use some glutamine and creatine too!
