Gaining Strength the Key to Gaining Muscle

I feel gaining muscle is to do with lifting weights. This is because you get stronger and gain more muscle. So as you become stronger, you gain more muscle. This means you really need to focus on increasing your strength when you work out. Over a period of time, you get stronger and increase muscle mass. To gain strength, it is important to train and eat properly. In spite of this, your body could do with some extra supplements, in addition to the training and eating.

I have 5 favorite supplements that can last you a long time and help you work on that strength and muscle mass. Belts are one accessory that really help in weight lifting. They give you back and ab support and safety. They increase muscle stimulation and growth. Then come gloves – save your hands from getting blistered and callused. Good grips too! Wraps help support your knees. If you notice, most lifters wear wraps on the knees for knee support. But don’t overdo it with these wraps…you don’t want to stop your blood circulation! Straps are cool when you use them to let your arms hook up to lift the weight. They stop you from losing the grip and help you gain muscle mass. Straps can be of cotton, nylon and have hooks too. Another thing is chalk. Lets you lift weights better. Can be used fro bench press, dead lift, squat, curls, etc. See how the supplements work?
