  • I talked about three muscle building supplements that are NOT worth your money in the previous video. Now let's talk about three that certainly can be!
    Disclaimer: Although I do feel that these supplements can help you build muscle, they are not at all necessary. You can certainly build a decent amount of muscle without any of these supplements or any supplement for that matter as long as you take care of your nutrition. Treat these as their name suggests: supplements.
    Also, if you are concerned of the effects of any of these supplements might pose to your own health, then please ask a healthcare professional before deciding to add them to your regimen.
    Good luck!

      Really all you need is whey. I’ll give it to you on creatine, it is useful. Or rather can be. It’s good for restoring muscle and increasing gains to some amount, but at the cost of getting stretch marks and gaining all that water weight for no reason. Depending on what you do, the water weight may not matter to you but to a wrestler or any weighted sport, it’s important.

    Should have included the warnings of creatine, if you don’t drink enough water you can create liver damage since you would be very dehydrated during your workout ( creatine moves water weight to the muscles so you get stronger), and only to use it in intense workouts since it has been proven to only work in high muscle stress workouts

      @AFSamizdat 6 років тому +28

      As someone with DHT associated hair-loss, I rationalised it cannot be stopped. Weight lifting, higher protein intake, proper vitamin D and zinc intake etc...will ultimately improve and maintain healthy if not statically higher testosterone over that of a general population. Maintaining higher or a healthy range of testosterone will inevitably lead to increased DHT conversion and thus hair-loss. So bodybuilidng/exercise/etc = hair-loss.

    Fair warning guys, check with your physician before taking creatine. I only say this because when i was taking it (3g a day) I had swelling in random places and felt awful. I got a blood test a few months later and my liver count was near 2000 and had to stay in the hospital for 3 days flushing my system out. While the odds of this happening to others is close to none, theres some of us like me who produce more than enough of it naturally and taking any dosage of it can cause adverse effects.

      Nick Benedetto you're right. I had a similar situation with whey protein. After taking it for a month one time doc said my liver was high and I just stopped using whey protein(the one I took was body fortress from Wal-Mart) and started just eating food taking vitamins and getting protein from peanut butter, lean beef, milk, chicken, or fish. I don't use any supplements besides vitamins for men 1 a day brand and I don't use creatine or pre workout. I just drink water and or eat a little carbs an hour or 2 before working out

    • @Andrew-ps2fh
      @Andrew-ps2fh 6 років тому +69

      They never say to replace food with Whey. It's a supplement which means it supplements your diet if you so wish. Because protein is usually consumed from meat, it takes the longest to prepare and people occasionally need a quick source because working out is not everyone's "sport".

    Question : Does steady consumption of creatine lead to a dependance on it? I read that your body produces it from some meat and if u supplement it without cycling then your body will adapt and stop producing it and you'll have to just take it forever as your only source of creatine in your body

    2 Questions.
    1: Regarding Creatine: Does it impact muscle strength relative to size? (I.E. If I'm using it to add, say, 30lbs of muscle over a period of, I dunno, a year. And someone who started working out around that same time who isn't using it gains the same 30lbs of muscle doing basically the same work out, assuming same overall age, height and total body weight/BMI, will I, as the one who was using Creatine, be physically less strong in terms of ability to lift weight and expert force?)
    2: Do you have any recommend supplements to deal with reducing/minimizing muscle soreness after work outs, and/or speeding up post work out recovery? Particularly that really bad longer term soreness that kicks in the next morning and makes it borderline if not outright impossible just to get out of bed and make it to work, let alone think about working out again that day, or that freaking week usually?

    Also, since so many uninformed folks are spending hundreds of dollars per month on supplements, including anabolics, why not take a test, a "micronutrient test" to discover what areas that your body is lacking in minerals and vitamins. The test is only a few hundred dollars, but worth every penny to discover the added nutrients your body is lacking.
