Time to bust another bodybuilding myth! Today, it’s about supplements. You see millions of ads of supplements in magazines and they all say that this one is the BEST! And you will grow immensely! Your muscles will explode! Or that this supplement is as Anabolic as anything except steroids can (read gives you most growth). And on and on and on!

So you might get an idea that supplements are a must when bodybuilding… well. NO NO NO! They are not a must, not one type of protein powder, not creatine, not Animal pack not anything else. IF you get enough calories and eat balanced meals with enough proteins/carbohydrates/healthy fats then you don’t NEED supplements. Protein shake is good only for supplementing your nutrition, you can start drinking shakes all day and expect to gain muscle, that’s not real food. Real food is the best and nothing, NOTHING will substitute it. NEVER!

So while buying a supplement is not a must, a necessary thing, you can still use it. One protein shake per day after a workout is not bad, but if start drinking 3 of them instead of eating, you are dead wrong! And buying other fancy named supplements aren’t a must either, good nutrition and intensive training with plenty of rest is the basics and the only Musts there are!

That’s it for today, short post, hope you enjoyed it!

Best of luck,
Adrian
