What's the best supplement for building BIG Muscle?
That's a question that is asked a lot, and we have found some answers for you.
Whey protein: It may help you build muscle, but so do other types of protein. Taking whey protein is also sensitive to when you take it, how much, what other food you eat, how old you are and when you take it (before/after workout).
Creatine: Creatine has been studied a lot. Although there are studies that have show it may help in building muscle mass or promoting strength it has not been the holy grail of building big muscles. Again when, how much and how long seem to be questions that generate different answers from the expert.
Aminos, multivitamins, the list goes on. There are so many supplements that may aid building muscle mass but so much comes down to timing, amount and even quality of the product.
What most of these supplements seem to have in common is that they are supplementing something that is not in your food, not enough in your food, or not at the right time available to your body. And interestingly enough this brings us to one "supplement" that is already in your food, but probably is not available at the right moment in the right amount. Energy! Most energy comes from carbohydrates, and like many studies already have shown. Consuming carbs during and after a work out seems to be an important muscle builder!
