BodyBuilding Supplements - Taking them Correctly

Bodybuilding supplements are abundantly available – and I think they are great, provided you take the right one. There are so many out there in the market that don’t quite measure up. It is not a question of – the more ingredients the better. One thing that must be borne in mind is that you should never try too many products at the same time. Sounds crazy? Maybe – but its true.

I know people who start one product and then add something else (not weight, always J) to it because someone recommended it and then wonder why its not working. I mean, its difficult to tell which one’s working. It is best to go with brand names that are well known even if they appear to cost more, rather than go in for something that costs less and doesn’t work at all. Brand names like NOW foods, Optimum Nutrition, etc. have been tried and tested and proven successful.

I’ve seen people who have bought these products and were consistently happy with it. I’d suggest that you add the following natural protein supplements to your diet when you are training to gain weight = whey, soy, egg, meal replacements, creatine, glutamine, multivitamins and mineral. For your weight gain effort to really work, you should concentrate on your training regime – rather than the supplements you take.

Weight Gain Supplement - Prolab N-Large II

There is this weight gain supplement – Prolab N-Large II being highly recommended – apparently it works. A friend of mine combines it with creatine and is standing proof that it works. And what is more, you don’t need a blender (and the mess of cleaning it). This supplement mixes nicely, and tastes great – you have a choice between chocolate, vanilla and strawberry.

Ok…enough about the trivia – lets cut to the real stuff. One serving of N-Large (nice name, by the way) as 52 grams of protein, 89 grams of carbs and – hold your breath – 620 calories. For any normal person we only need 1800-2000 calories a day; this means a serving of N-large takes care of one-thirds of your daily needs. So N-large + Milk = results! If you tend to put on weight too easily, you might need to watch it, but for someone who finds it hard to put on weight, this is a boon. A serving of N-large means four scoops (152 grams) so maybe one or two servings at a time ought to do.

Prolab N-Large II has all the necessary elements to pack in energy, reduce body fat while building muscle mass, improving endurance and strength. Also it is not as expensive as some of the other products out there. Ordering on the Internet saves some bucks as well. Definitely worth checking out - protein does help you build muscles – Mom wasn’t so wrong after all! Read more on Prolab N-Large

Muscle Building - Being Successful

Just as some people want to lose weight, some people want to gain it! Maybe you have been trying quite hard to gain weight and build those muscles but nothing’s working? As I talk to various people, I’ve realized that they end up being unsuccessful in their quest to gain weight because of some really simple reasons.

The main thing is the diet – you know, if you don’t eat enough protein and don’t follow a weight gain diet, you are just not going to add those extra pounds. Eating too many simple carbs doesn’t help either. Ask yourself if you are stressing your muscles properly during your workout? No? there’s no need to break your back but it is necessary to go that extra mile when you work out if you are really keen on growing those muscles and gain weight.

Above all, you need single-minded focus. Consistency. Now, if you don’t concentrate and stick to the weight gain program, there’s no way you’re going to build those muscles. Don’t expect results overnight – it takes a little time.

That doesn’t mean you feel miserable and decide its not going to work. If you want something badly enough, you’ve got to stay focused and work at it. Believe me – if you are willing to stick at it, your body will certainly respond. Get obsessed and go for it!
