Supplements For Muscle Growth

Taking certain nutritional supplements for muscle building is not absolutely necessary you can do without them, however, some of them really do have their advantages. They can give you an added physical and mental edge. They help to enhance performance and can help in the muscle-building process. Although some are a waste of your time, money and effort, a few perform.

Supplements help to fill the missing link that may occur during an intense muscle-building phase. You do need some supplements for greater muscle growth. Here are the supplements I’d recommend for Muscle-building.

Creatine:

A great supplement that always produces positive health and muscle-building benefits. Helps to fill the muscles with fluid making you stronger and able to lift heavier & recover faster. Good bodyweight gains are achieved with this, which allows you to lift more for better muscle growth stimulation.

Protein Powders:

Whey protein isolate is the best fast-acting protein to aid in the repair & growth of muscle tissue after an intense training session. The bars that are balanced with protein fat & carbs are more of an energy type bar & are popular with active people. The protein bars that are mostly protein & fat are popular with people looking to lose weight & who are following a low-carb diet.

Casein Protein:

Slow-digesting protein is best taken just before bed to supply the body with a continuous flow of amino acids for repair & growth through the night while you sleep.

Weight Gainers:

A high-calorie supplement is a good idea if you consider yourself to be underweight. High calories are needed for muscle endurance & optimum performance & effective muscle repair. You’ll want to stay healthy while you’re on a muscle-building quest so I’d also recommend:

A good multi-vitamin/mineral supplement:

To offset any nutrient deficits that may occur during an intense training program. Vitamins & minerals are essential for good health and well-being.

Vitamin C:

A great immunity booster and free radical destroyer.

Vitamin E:

Great for Cell integrity and vitality.

Essential Fatty Acids:

Great for overall health and helps promote the body’s production of Testosterone – the muscle builder.

Along with the supplements, there are other elements that you need for muscle growth.

A sound workout routine that induces muscle growth and does not over-train the muscles.

A good healthy high-calorie diet. Eat six smaller meals instead of 3 large meals.

Sufficient rest and recovery time. Your muscles have to be fully recovered.

Discipline Commitment and Consistency.
