The best bodybuilding supplements backed by science

Guys and gals just mark these words into your system, if you want a good physique no amount of supplemets or training in the gym will help you if your diet is not on point. With that out of the way here are the top 4 science backed supplements you will ever need.

  1. Whey protein - It's obvious that it top the charts due to the fact that it enhances muscle growth and recovery. A good quality whey protein has all the essential amino acids and BCAA for enhancing recovery and reducing fatigue post workouts.

Pro Advice - Go for whey protein Isolate as it helps in lean muscle gains.

2. Creatine - The most well studied supplement that truly works for enhancing strength and size. Most people like to load creatine but it's not necessary as taking a simple 3 to 5 grams on a daily basis for 2 months works in a similar manner.

Pro Advice - There are many forms of Creatine available in the market these days, but most research is on the creatine monohydrate, so better go for it.

3. Fish Oil - The EPA and DHA found in fish oils have numerous health benefits like lowering cholesterol, fighting depression and improving cardiovascular function etc. But what many people may not know that fish oil also protects the joints and have mild fat burning effect.

Pro Advice - Go for a supplement containinga minimum of 500mg EPA and 300 mg DHA.

4. Multivitamin - The good old multivitamin is probably the most underrated nutritional supplement. Mostly when people cut weight and enters a calorie deficit taking a good quality multivitamin can boost energy levels, delay fatigue and enhance performance.

Pro Advice - Go for a multivitamin with a decent quantity of magnesium, selenium and other trace minerals.

Impressive shoulder can be build at home with just a pair of dumbbells if the person is consistent and have a solid nutrition plan to allow maximum growth. Here is how my shoulders look these days And here is how they looked 3–4 months back when I was injured So, the reason for fast development of my shoulders is mainly muscle memory. When I started performing daily home workouts my delts responded fairly quickly. Here are some of the exercises I did to traget shoulders.
