So now I’m interested in Flameout, Superfood, Grow!, Metabolic Drive Low-Carb, Metabolic Drive Complete, Surge Recovery, and Creatine.
How would a 130lbs male beginner in strength training go about utilizing these items. I’m trying to boost T-levels and bulk up. Then lift heavy stuff to sculpt that bulk into functional muscle that’s also built for show. 
Where’s the veterans when ya need 'em?

If you want to boost T-levels, squat and deadlift, and eat plenty of food. Make sure you’re getting a good blend of healthy fats. As for the sups, as has been pointed out, you don’t really need that much. That being said, Flameout and Superfood are pretty good general health supps.
They won’t really help with size or strength, but taken as directed they do offer certain health benefits. If you are having trouble getting enough protein in your solid meals, (protip: you shouldn’t be having any problems if you get your diet in line), I would pick one protein powder and use it to hit the numbers you need.
Metabolic Drive Complete is really more of a meal replacement powder, so I would stick with Low-carb Metabolic Drive or Grow! Whey. You probably don’t need creatine or Surge right now, but if you insist on using them, follow the label for Surge, and take 5g of creatine a day.
some of you guys might want to chime in on another thread i have here regarding t-boosting, the threads called ‘Boosting T Naturally’
squat and deadlift, that makes sense. and to eat foods that are known to be natural test boosters. of course, in time, i would love to include the t-boosting supps for that extra quantum of power.

CiCi’s beef pizza is not bad.
The published nutritional info is, per 5 slices (arbitrary choice there) buffet pizza:
Calories 848, protein 47 g, carbs 91 g, fat 32.5 g (34.5% of calories from fat.)
Hungry Howie’s is quite good nutritionally when made according to the standard method. Some individual outlets choose to make their pizza much greasier however.
The published nutritional info is, per 4 slices (arbitrarily chosen for similar total protein content to the CiCi’s example above) large cheese pizza:
Calories 832, protein 49 g, carbs 101 g, fat 19.6 g (21.2% of calories from fat.)

Thanks for the info, would never have thought that it was so healthy! The buffet is really cheap, too… 
I’m not sure about Rez-V; but ZMA and R. Rosea you can’t “cut in 1/2”
They are in capsule form. Powder inside.
I hope you actually read what these posts are saying and don’t just blow it off because we are saying that supplements aren’t the answer.

The whole point is that if you hit the weights hard and eat right, you’re not going to see a boost from a t-booster sup unless you’re a. over about 35, or b. have some sort of medical condition. I’m 25, I’ve used Alpha Male about a year ago,and honestly, I didn’t get much out of it. I then did a cycle with Carbolin 19, and saw slightly better gains, which proved to me at least that I did not get anything out of the T-booster compounds in Alpha Male.
Stop looking for some magic bullet to give you an edge, and go eat and lift until you hit at least 200 lbs and decent lift numbers.
right, so best bet then is ta do some research on what the best sources of naturally occuring t-boosting elements are and then chown down a bunch of that i.e. brussels sprouts, etc. and of course, vigorously train hard.
Just f’n eat. Your overthinking things. Get enough food and you’ll be fine. Trying to fine tune your diet to increase t levels at your point in life (130lbs, untrained, 25 years old), is like trying to find the right Formula 1 tires for an 83 Ford pickup. There’s no point, it’s not the main problem.
In my experience, people preoccupied with the idea of increasing their testosterone are the type of people that aim to make hard work easy, and because of this attitude they never stick it out or achieve their goals.
And I’m not referring to experienced guys who use T-boosting supplements and anabolics as a tool that is supplementary to their already spot-on diet and training.
brussel sprouts are not the key to getting big.
Incremental gains in bodyweight + progressively heavier weights repped to failure + 1.5 grams of protein per pound of bodyweight = the recipe for size
If you want to use supplements, use whey protein to meet your protein requirements each day, and take a multivitamin/fish oil for health reasons.
Put all the other crap, including mythical notions about t-boosting brussel sprouts, out of your mind.
Cool.
Have loads of peanut butter. Egg yolks. Olive Oil. Fish Oils.
You may put on a few tyres, but your weight will definitely go up.
If you train, and supplement correctly, combined with a high fat intake, (which promotes growth hormone), then you should note some increases in muscle mass. However a gain in body fat is inevitable.
You may take supplements such as creatine, and definitely some glutamine to help recovery.
Hope that helps.
