Best Multi Vitamin/ Best Supplements?

I know Animal Pak and Orange Triad are popular vitamin supplements with the meatheads I know but I'm curious what other people take. Daily I take a regular one per day vitamin, fish oil, glutamine, and protein whey but only after workouts.

I use solgar multivits. Was told to use Animal Pak and went through tub once as instructed - but didn't see any benefit over a normal multivit, certainly none that was worth taking 11 dog-biscuit sized tablets first thing in the morning.

At the moment, I use:

Solgar multivit twice a day - first thing, and just before bed.
Glucosamine
Flaxseed Oil and Fish Oil 3,6,9 etc
ZMA before bed.
Sci-mex ultragen whey (very little carbs per serving) in the morning and last thing at night
Peri-Matrix Recovery immediately after training (within 5 mins). This is probably the best supplement I have ever taken - vastly superior recovery to any other recovery product i've tried.
Creatine.

Have taken to caffeine before heavy lifts as well. Seems to help, could be mental though.

I usually have a big cup of strong coffee or green tea, followed up by a large glass/glasses of cold water before workouts. (Unless its a cardio sesh and a lot of liquid is not what you want) That will get ya going!

Coffee helps, the caffeine and heat gets you warmed up quick, pretty much like pre workout supplements, without the Nitric Oxide.

No, it's good. Best taken an hour before you train.
