Best Muscle Builders Available

OK then. You want the low-down on which supplements for body builders available here at Powerhouse Supplements are the best muscle builders. What’s going to really help you bulk up and look ripped? While all the products available in our online store are going for discount prices, which ones really give you plenty of bang for your buck?

Of course, your diet plays a big role in building lean muscle tissue. While supplements certainly do help in gaining extra muscle bulk (especially protein supplements), most of your protein and vitamins should come from your diet. Even if you take every supplement in our store, you can’t expect to get massive muscles if you don’t eat right. The same goes for exercise. Your body builds more muscle in response to extra loads and demands, so if you don’t put in the hours needed in the gym, all that extra protein will just be flushed out of your system and literally go down the drain.

Most of the really good body building supplements for building big muscles fall into three major types: protein, multivitamins and creatine.

Let’s start with creatine. Australian Men’s Health magazine calls this supplement “one of the few (legal) muscle supplements that live up to the hype" (March 2005 issue, pg 100). Creatine has been known as a source of energy for the major muscle groups (arms, legs, abs, glutes). However, creatine has also been widely touted as a muscle bulker and performance enhancer – some studies have seen a body nass increase of 1 kg in one week. Creatine is so effective in enhancing muscle bulk that it has been used in treating hypertrophy and muscle wasting diseases.

Protein is next on the list of top muscle builders. This is simple biology. Muscle is made of protein. To build more muscle, you need to eat protein. And in order to get protein in a concentrated form without consuming fatty meat, a supplement works wonders, as these are usually low in fat and in carbohydrates. Protein supplements come in many forms – ready made shakes, powders and bars. Each type of protein supplement has its advantages. Ready-to-drink shakes are convenient and reduce mess. Bars can easily be stuffed into your gym bag or pocket and can be eaten on the go. Protein powders are versatile and can be added to things other than shakes. Protein supplements are derived from many sources: whey, casein, egg (whole egg or egg white only) and soy, or a combination of these.

Multivitamin supplements don’t seem to be the first thing that spring to mind when you think of building big muscles. Surely some of the other great supplements such as ZMA, Glutamine or a NOx enhancer are better? These other supplements are fantastic, but without looking after your overall health and vitality, you aren’t going to be able to build the muscles you want and you will lose condition. What’s more, the vitamins and minerals also help cellular function so your muscles can perform as well as they can. If you are in the strict dieting phase during your bodybuilding training, you will also need to make sure that you get enough vital vitamins in your diet.

And, of course, vitamins aren’t just for body builders. Anyone can benefit from taking a multivitamin supplement.
