The Truth about Muscle building /fatloss Supplements

Almost anyone who works out regularly has bought supplements,after all who wouldn’t like to make muscle building and fat loss easier?

But witch supplements really work? I mean there may be nothing more confuseing or controversial than the topic of muscle building/fatloss supplements. Just flip open any muscle magazine and you will be instantly bombarded with endless advertisements for all kinds of pills,drinks and powders that promise incrediable gains in minimal time.

The health and fitness supplements are a multibillion dollar industry, and their carefully planned out marketing campaigns are made to push all your buttons so you hand over your money i the hopes ot get that perfect body.

But there are no magic pills or drinks
If your goal is to achieve a strong, muscular and lean body, I guarantee that you will not get there by sucking down bodybuilding pills,drinks and powders. If supplements actually followed up on the promises that they made, everyone would be huge and muscular( and if bodybuilding supplements work that well it would then get classified as a drug and could not be sold over the counter).

And just to be clear I am not completely against the use of supplements.In fact there are few I have taken that I would highly recomend.

All I want you to realize is that supplements are just that: supplements. They are there to supplement your diet and fill in those missing gaps that whole food simply cannot provide.

If you’re training hard and eating properly, supplements can aid you in your quest for more muscle and less fat. However, supplements are not there to replace anything. They are simply there to give you a little extra boost,nothing more!

Do Not Strech Muscles Befor Working those muscles!

I am going to tell you something that will suprise a lot of you,Do NOT stretch your muscles befor you work out!

Research has shown that a pre weith training stretching will reduce your muscle strength by as much as 28%.Instead odf stretching befor you workout just do some lifting with lighter weights to get warmed up first witch will help prevent injury.

After you are done with you weight training do some deep stretching on the muscles you have worked trained.

It is believed That this will strech the fascia (the menbrane that encases the muscles) and giive your muscles more room to grow,the streching will also cause micro tears the muscle and when the muscles repair these tears it will be bigger and stronger.(when ever you train intensely your are tearing down the muscle tissue) .

The growth occurs when your body muscle repairs the muscles). But when you strech the muscles after a workout you do have to make it a nice deep stretch ,you must really feel the stretch in the muscle or muscle groups.

Calories Vs. Protein On Body Fat!
