Creatine Monohydrate: One of the most effective and popular of all muscle building products available. It is found naturally in many foods including tuna, herring, beef and salmon but not in large enough quantities to build big muscles. Creatine monohydrate has the highest level of creatine than any other available material. Creatine causes a significant increase in lean muscle mass in a short period of time, hastens recovery rates, enhances energy levels and improves performance in exercises of high-intensity. Creatine shows best results when taken at least thirty minutes before training and combined with a base that is high in carbohydrates, such as glucose. Besides being highly effective, creatine has the advantage of being totally safe too. It is not toxic and has no adverse side effects.
Protein Powders: To build big muscles you need to make sure you get the right kind of protein in the right quantities. Protein powders and protein bars are especially formulated in different proportions for different requirements. Someone who wanted to lose weight would want a protein that is low calorie, whereas someone who wanted to build big muscles would have to go in for a high protein powder that is also high-calorie but without the excess fat and sugar. Three of the most popular protein types are whey, egg and soy. Whey proteins have high amino acid levels and are easily digestible, which makes them the most desirable source of protein. Egg protein is the second highest source of protein.
Glutamine Products: Glutamine is an excellent muscle builder and it also improves your immunity and enhances your natural growth hormone. Glutamine products help reduce the rate of muscle deterioration and are incredible as muscle recovery products as well, helping you to recover quicker from your strenuous workouts.
ZMA: This all-natural, scientifically-designed product contains Zinc Aspartate, Magnesium Aspartate and vitamin B-6 and has been clinically proven to raise testosterone levels that in turn significantly increase and improve muscle strength.
Anti-Estrogen: Helps decrease levels of estrogen, which otherwise slow down production of muscle-building testosterone.
Recovery Enhancers: Muscle recovery and growth takes place during the interval between workouts. Muscle recovery products help muscle recover and repair faster thus making for a faster growth.
Multi-Vitamins and Minerals: Multi-vitamin and mineral supplements are essential for maximizing efficiency of the body and helping you gain muscle. Vitamin deficiency causes fatigue, muscle weakness, muscle cramping and lowered immunity.Vitamin C helps reduce muscle soreness by repairing connective tissue and it also stops free radical damage caused by the trauma of weight-lifting.
