Three Supplements for a booming body

Not everyone is as health- or fitness conscious as the next person. In my opinion, if you have a fully functional body, you should use it to full effect. This will obviously include training or doing exercise on a regular basis. If you are keen to keep your body in shape while staying healthy, you may want to keep reading. We will look at three dietary supplements that can add a bit of spice to your training routine.

  • First up is the most popular dietary supplement around, protein. Protein comes from a variety of sources such as whey. It helps with muscle hypertrophy after a big session of training and it also replaces amino acids lost during exercise. Put simply, your muscles need protein to recover after exercise and normal protein take longer to get to the muscles than a protein supplement would. Protein supplements speed up recovery.
  • Creatine is a very nifty supplement. If used correctly it will promote great results. Creatine heightens water absorption in the muscles which means that you have a bit more stamina in the gym. This means you would be able to pump a few more reps which in turn will lead to stronger and bigger muscles.
  • Another supplement to consider is glutamine. Glutamine is the most important amino acid in the body, so it is pretty self explanatory. Glutamine rapidly replaces those amino acids lost during intense exercise. It is also a booster of the immune system and helps in the recovery/healing of wounds such as cuts and burns, it also boasts many health benefits.

These supplements can be found at most pharmacies or health shops, usn products and evox products are among the more popular brands.
