subject: The Key To Unlocking Your Workout - Supplements- [print this page] Today supplements are becoming more and more prevalent in today's gym. Not only do supplements give you that muscle tearing feel they actually work and are backed by today's smartest and brightest scientists. They have supplements for everything from weight loss to muscle building. I divide the majority of supplements into three main categories. There are fat loss supplements, muscle building supplements, supplements that clean and detoxify the body.
The supplements that help people loose weight have been around for long time and rely on a simple mode of action. They rely on increasing the persons metabolism by increasing the body temperature and cellular processes. Most of there products are thermogens and the increased body temperature results I a need for more energy which luckily comes from fat.
The second category that supplements take on is that of muscle building. There are a ton of supplements that are important in building muscle. These include pre-workout supplements, protein, and vitamin and minerals. Pre-workout supplements are important because they allow you to push your body to higher limits in order to tear more muscle fibers and get a better pump. The more muscle fiber that you tear will result in more muscle being made. Protein is important in preventing muscle from being broken down as well as making more muscle fibers. Vitamins and minerals are the most overlooked aspect of building muscle. They allow your body to repair and work at an optimal level.
Supplements even come in forms that will detoxify and cleans your body. They clear out all of the free radicals and toxins that are build up due to everything that you eat during the day. There is no way to completely avoid these toxins in today's world, but there are ways to get rid of them quickly.
