I lift a good deal, but I've also looked down upon supplements of any kind. The main reason is that each supplement, creatine, NO2, etc. whatever it is, usually has undesirable side effects. Think about it: your ingesting things into your body in higher amounts than usual. This way be good for lifting, but not good for your body. Another thing I've seen is people who take supplements, get strong, then lose that strength once they stopped taking it. Last but not least, I find it more satisfying to know that I can lift more than most people, yet I take nothing but protein to do it. I will only use protein as I wasn't getting enough in my regular diet, and I take it in reasonable amounts so as to not throw my body off balance. Do what you like though, its just something to think about.
