Post-Workout / Muscle Recovery
After a grueling workout, all you want to do is rest. But there’s one more crucial step you need to take to ensure your hard work pays off: nourishing your body with Post-Workout supplements. Why? When you workout, you deplete your muscle glycogen, the primary fuel your muscles use for energy production. After your workout, your hungry muscles are primed to absorb whatever nutrients you send their way—preferably high-glycemic carbohydrates to promote glycogen replenishment, a fast-acting protein to enhance nitrogen balance and amino acids to enhance recovery—which is why the quality of your post-workout supplements is so important. To help your body through recovery mode after intense training, and to turn your body from a catabolic (muscle breakdown) state into an anabolic (muscle growth) state, try products such as BioQuest’s MyoZene, MHP’s Dark Matter and ProSource’s After-Mass. Aside from the carbs, protein and amino acids (such as glutamine, taurine, arginine, glycine and alpha lipoic acid) mentioned above, some products in this category also contain creatine monohydrate, B vitamins and even botanicals. Help your muscles rebuild at the exact time they are most receptive to receiving nutrients, by following each session at the gym with a post-workout/recovery product.

Anti-Catabolics
When your workout is over and your muscles are screaming for fuel to repair the damage you’ve done, quick and targeted nutrition is a must. Without it, your muscles will simply feed on themselves and all of your potential gains will have been lost. To undo the damage and grow, you need BCAAs and glutamine to repair muscle tissue, carbs to restore depleted glycogen levels, and fast-action aminos (including whey isolate, and hydrolyzed whey) to jump start anabolism. Stop catabolic processes in their tracks with proper supplementation and you’ll derive maximum benefit from every workout.

Pre-Workout Supplements
Not taking the proper pre-workout formula of food and supplements is like trying to race your car down the street with no gas—you’re not going to get anywhere. In fact, you may actually be doing more harm then good, as your body will begin to use the muscles you worked so hard to develop as the next-best energy source. So, after your pre-workout meal, but before your workout, get a boost in energy, strength and endurance from one of the many Pre-Workout formulas on the market. Traditional pre-workout compounds—such as Bioquest's AlphaFury and Gaspari Nutrition’s Super Pump 250—include nitric oxide for increased pump, creatine monohydrate for building more muscle mass faster, caffeine for increased focus and energy, and the amino acid arginine for muscle growth, thanks to its vasodilating properties. Other formulas also contain such ingredients as phosphates, taurine, beta-alanine, B vitamins, L-glutamine, antioxidants, electrolytes and tyrosine, while some are most revered for what they don’t contain: sugar, caffeine and fillers, such as high-glycemic maltodextrin or artificial dyes. For an explosive workout with gym-rattling muscle pumps and through-the-roof endurance, set the tone of your workout before you even set foot in the gym with these pre-workout products.

Mass and Strength Builders
For bodybuilders looking to add serious size to their frame—in the form of lean muscle, of course, while minimizing fat gains—or any athlete looking to bulk up muscle mass, the popular solution is Mass Building supplements. These products are specifically formulated to help you pack on pounds of lean mass, which is why the mass-building category is one of the most crowded and fiercely competitive of all in today’s sports supplement marketplace. When you think mass building, you probably think of creatine, a natural derivate of an amino acid produced in the body that supplies energy to muscles. Supplementing with creatine products—such as MHP’s Dark Matter, BioQuest’s MyoZene or ProSource’s SynthaTrex Xtreme—helps you train harder before fatigue sets in while also hydrating muscle cells. Aside from creatine, mass-building products often contain additional branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), such as glutamine, beta alanine, taurine, tyrosine, tryptophan and leucine. Formulas for various fitness goals exist, including sugar-free to help keep your carb intake low or the inclusion of protein, carbohydrates, fat and electrolytes to make up an all-in-one powerhouse product. If your pursuit for more muscle seems never-ending, this mass-building supplement category is the answer you’ve been looking for.
