1. first off prisoners are in prison for more then a couple years plus they work out everyday most likely

if ur guna work out u cant pun it, u gotta push it to the limit and boss alot of weight with smaller reps rather then lower weight wit alot of reps

and supplements help alot cuz one serving has like 25g of protien

2. Technically not. I myself use supps and they are just an easy way for me to get 50g of protein out of the 150g i need daily (calculated by my body weight of 180 pounds). If you are looking to get ripped, you should probably use some supplements. Also, drinking a protein shake after working out will help repair your muscles more than just sitting around and resting.

By the way, prisoners are sometimes pumped going INTO jail, and because they're pumped they end up being thugs and getting into trouble, ending with jail. Another side note, not ALL prisoners are pumped.

Hope that helped.
