Bodybuilding Tips and Tricks

Even a rookie to bodybuilding or any type of fitness training knows that protein is one of the most important nutritional supplements one can consume in order to ensure maximum success. The problem is, there are so many types and brands out there it can be difficult to determine which is best for you. To this end, I’m sharing this aticle with you from bodybuilding.com. It discusses protein supplements in depth and dissects them based on protein type, taste, brand name, price, and content. Take a look =)

A multi-vitamin is one of the most important (and perhaps most underestimated) supplements a bodybuilder (or any athlete) can consume. In order to train and perform to our maximum potential, we must have a complete complement of the necessary vitamins and minerals. Taking a high potency multivitamin/mutimineral supplement will ensure that you have everything you need for hardcore training, growth, and health.

The brand I’m currently using isOptimum Opti-Men. It couples vitamins and minerals with herbs specifically designed for males. Great supplement!

Discipline. It’s what drives any good training program. The discipline to go to the gym rain or shine, tired or energetic. The discipline to push yourself during your workout and not just “go through the motions”. The discipline to watch your diet every day and supplement properly. Here’s a fantastic article from David Robson over at bodybuilding.com addressing just that: discipline. I think it will inspire you both in the gym and perhaps even outside the gym as well. Check it out here.

Here’s a great article from Michael Kurilla over at bodybuilding.com. It discusses the science behind interval training (something I’ve touched on in my fat burning section) and really gives some great information about the exercise physiology of burning fats opposed to carb and protein, how to determine you maximum fat burning zone, and howto adjust your diet to burn more fat. A great read!
