Building Muscles Fast Using Supplements

By Molly Robbins

For those interested in building muscles fast, their diet may not provide all the essential things needed to accomplish their goal. While you should strive to have a good diet and eat as many of the right foods as possible it may be that you are still just not getting enough. There are certain supplements that you may want to use that will help your bodybuilding efforts and enable you to reach your building muscles fast goals.

Ideally, you should eat five or six meals a day and make sure you get enough calories so that your metabolism both gets and stays high. For most of these meals, you'll want to take in real food, but you can also add in two or three meal replacement shakes so that you can be more assured of fast muscle building.

In general, meal replacement powders are about the same across the board when it comes to macronutrients, so it's okay to buy the less expensive versions of these. Make sure the mill replacement powders you buy come from a reputable manufacturer, though. Even if they may cost you a little bit, remember that per serving, meal replacement shakes or powders are going to be much cheaper than making a trip to a fast food restaurant, so make sure you use these powders to get the nutrients you need and are getting enough calories, too. In general, having a meal replacement shake just before or after you've done your workout is a good idea.

Whey proteins are also good, especially because they are easily absorbed. And because whey proteins are so easily absorbed, your body can repair itself much more easily if you take some before bed, so that your muscles can rebuild while you sleep. Again, you can certainly save some money by finding inexpensive ones, but make sure you buy from a company that's reputable. Whey protein should have under 100 mg of sodium per serving and under 5 g of carbohydrate per serving.

It's also important to take multivitamins, especially if you want to build muscles fast. You should have higher levels of vitamin C, at least 500 mg, and high levels of vitamin E, at least 400 mg. You're putting your body through a lot of stress as you do your workouts, so you'll need higher amounts of these nutrients than other people do.

Many people have found great success with Creatine that helps supply energy to muscles and nerve cells. There are many ways that it is made available but try to source it from companies with a good reputation. Try to get it in the unflavored variety as with the flavored type you will be paying for the dextrose to make it flavored. It works best using protein powders after your workout rather than before. Take it with grape juice or some kind of high carb drink.

Glutamine is also another great supplement to take if you want to build muscles fast. It has 60% of the amino acids your body uses. It helps with protein metabolism and is needed for development of your muscles. After your workout you have used about 50% of your glutamine stores and your body will take it from the muscles to replenish it.

Whatever supplements and meal replacements you decide to use, make sure everything you take comes from reputable manufacturers. Take the supplements and meal replacement powders in the right dosages, and make sure you eat right when it comes to food consumption, too. A good diet, good supplementation, and a good workout program will help make sure that you build muscle fast. - 17268
