just a head up question. Why do you think you need those supps?

Having a calorie surplus (consume more than calorie maintenance) would help the body to increase its mass. What mass? It can be muscle mass or fat mass or both. If one having a calorie surplus with adequate protein intake, muscles will grow provided that the muscles have been 'workout' before. Most of the time, increase of muscle mass will always being accompanied by increase of fat mass.

Another result of having calorie surplus is that all the excess calorie will contribute to fat mass if one there is no muscles to be repaired. If one didn't do any exercises yet having a calorie surplus everday, he or she will gain fat mass.

If you can get yourself to a single digit body fat, the last place where the fat will stay is on the tummy side.

Fat will never be converted to muscles or vice versa. Both of them have different molecular composition. The only reason that I can think of why fat people can become muscular than skinny people is that the ability to eat a lot which something that skinny people cannot do and it is very important for muscles growth.

It is because fat people can eat a lot and most of them are accustom to handle heavy weight. As long as you eat more than your calorie maintenance and having a proper macro nutrition, then you are good to go (provided you are working out too).

Personal trainer is a matter of preference. I am currently self-training yet I got a lot of sifu especially forumers in here, Victor Costa, TMW, Dr. Layne Norton etc.

I don't take either one so am I doing something wrong here?

that's a sarcasm reply from me if you didn't notice it
