The Best Stack for BodybuildingBy Adam SinickiThere are a lot of supplements out there and knowing which ones work and which ones you need is key if you want to succeed in bodybuiling. Rather than going through the long process of trial and error then, why not use the stack I've provided below to turbo drive you training and muscle building. It's a blend of proteins, chemicals, vitamins, minerals and herbs that will get you feeling and performing better than ever before. Notice the focus on individual ingredients rather than brand names - don't be a slave to marketing and branding and make sure you understand the role of each and every substance you consume (most can be bought either in brands or individually on E-bay (but make sure they're trusted makes by reading reviews on forums etc)). This stack is cutting edge and includes combinations you won't find anywhere else - not neglecting the vitamins and minerals that can really increase the effectiveness of the more popular bodybuilding supplents to work alongside the body to get the most from your training. A protein shake combined with additional amino acids will give you provide your body with the building blocks necessary to build up your muscle. A good one would be EAS whey protein or Cytosport Muscle Milk. Consume three times a day - morning for a good supply, after your workout to replenish the body and make the most of that anabolic state, and just before sleep - another highly anabolic state.
Energy and pump will be aided by Creatine, which your muscles store in order to recycle their main energy source 'ATP'. More creatine then means your muscles can make more of its energy supplies so helping you lift more weights for longer. Phosphogen - which is a key ingredient in ATP will provide your body with the means to make ATP. Lipoic acid will enhance your muscles' ability to store glucose while pyruvate will help the transport of glucose to the muscles. NO (AKA Nitric Oxide) meanwhile will increase vascularity and pump, by aiding blood flow to the muscles. This means you'll look and feel stronger (how you normally look after a good workout) and supply your muscles with more of the energy and nutrients they need for optimum performance. Copper and vanadyl sulphate are just two natural ingredients that can greatly enhance this effect. Most of these nutrients can be found in the vitamin supplement 'Berocca' which is highly recommended. Use either in the morning for a great energy boost, or after a workout to replenish those vitamins and minerals lost through perspiration. Meanwhile Guarana is a herbal caffeine replacement that will also give you a longer lasting and more natural energy high and higher concentration/memory. Take two in the morning or during your afternoon energy slump. It also works as a slight fat burner so will aid in lean muscle development. The vitamins and minerals listed will greatly improve your strength, your body, your energy, your energy and your mind. Most of them can be found in Berocca which have a long list of advantages too which can benefit anyone but particularly bodybuilders: with calcium being great for muscle contractions, bone strength and tendons; zinc being good for your sense of smell and testosterone production meaning more fat burning and muscle building; thiamine improving oxidative energy by improving the transport of oxygen in the blood; biotin improving the utilisation of amino acids - that means muscle building; riboflavin burning carbs - meaning more energy and less fat; magnesium improving strength... the list goes on and many of these ingredients are found in other supplements (zinc and magnesium are very popular in testosterone boosters as is vitamin B6). Remember to monitor your stack carefully and make notes on how it effects your performance and how you feel. Different products work differently for different people so while this stack should provide you with fantastic gains and improved energy, health and concentration - still experiment and see what works for you. You also need to monitor the exact ingredietns to make sure they work together - for example while Berocca, Z-mass Anabol and Forza-T might sound like a great stack for energy and testosterone you should be aware that this combination would infact lead to an overdose in vitmain B6 causing potential nerve damage and/or kidney stones. Ouch! First try the stack advised below - ingredient for ingredient rather than being a slave to marketing and taking products at face value - and enjoy a stack that'll make you the closest to transhuman as is currently legal and possible - faster, stronger, more alert and more confident through science and an understanding of your own body.
