“Which supplements should I take?”

A question I get very frequently.

So I’ve compiled a list of 5 that I’ve found to be useful over the years.

~ RT/like to save this thread for later ~

Lets first establish that 98% of supplements are utterly-trash and a waste of money.

Most are marketing gimmicks targeted towards naive people.

“Lose 10lbs in 7 days with this pill”

Yeah, riiiight. And I’m also the king of France.

So... here’s 5 actually beneficial ones 👇

1. Whey protein

If you struggle with hitting your protein goal everyday, I suggest taking 1-2 scoops of whey protein.

It's not a protein meal replacement, its to simply help increase your protein intake when you struggle to eat enough.

I take 2 scoops daily. Works like magic.

2. Omega 3 fish oils

Fish oils have shown amazing-scientifically proven benefits for the human body.

It aids in weight loss when combined with a workout program as well as reducing bodily inflammation and supporting healthy skin/hair.

Highly recommend fish oils

3. Creatine

Creatine is one I recommend for those trying (and struggling) to put on size.

Creatine helps your muscle cells produce more energy to get in those extra few reps that really lead to muscle growth.

Also great for high intensity exercise performance (cough, athletes)

4. Multivitamin

Society today lacks many things. Among these things are vitamins and minerals (V&M)

We may have an abundance of food, but we sure lack V&M to support homeostasis.

We NEED V&M to feel good, have balanced moods and consistent energy. Don't skip out on them.

5. BCAA’s

Especially in a fasted state, BCAA's are fantastic at preventing muscle breakdown and helping improve muscle synthesis.

They also help reduce muscle soreness and exercise fatigue.

I take these in a fasted state before I workout.
