We give due importance to supplements

Edited by Dr. Davide Marciano

Supplementation is used by athletes to improve athletic performance and we bodybuilders seek maximum muscle growth from it.
Unfortunately, many people believe that the use of supplements alone can give them great gains in mass and definition. For this they take tons of products, they use the supplement sponsored by the World champion or the one recommended by their friend, they almost reach an addiction that distances them from the really fundamental things.

With this you absolutely do not want to blame supplements or doubt their usefulness, but you must be aware that there is a hierarchical scale and supplements are not at the top of it. That is, you must follow a good diet, a good workout and only after plan an "integrational assumption.
Is your training short and intense? Does a periodization follow? Do you use the progressive overload principle? Are you getting enough rest? How many calories are you consuming? Are all calories nutrient-rich? What kind of diet do you do?
These are all questions you should be able to answer before buying a supplement.
Do you ever wonder why you cannot have a good gain in muscle mass despite taking this or that other supplement. Think about it ..... maybe you don't have the habit of having breakfast.
It may seem strange to you but breakfast like all the other meals of the day is certainly much more important than the best supplement on the market.
As biochemist Barry Sears says: There is no better drug (much less supplement) than food itself.
Put it well in your head: no pill or powder will ever make you grow if you don't do everything else first (it is quite another matter if you want to ruin yourself with drugs).
A muscular and lean body is built over time, with due calm and with many sacrifices, without unnecessary shortcuts which, in addition to not being useful, represent a way to spend money.

Not to mention the aberrations said by presumed "competent" trainers / instructors (not always) only in taking drugs that are not aware of the existence of the SCIENCE OF INTEGRATION.
Dear readers, there are studies through which we can understand the effectiveness, the danger and the quantity to be taken of a supplement.
Returning to us and making a report we must, before taking any supplement, respect the following points:

Plan a good workout with two or three sessions per week
Use progressive loads and basic exercises
Do not exceed 6 sets per muscle band
Make sure you take in more calories than you consume
Eat approximately every three hours: breakfast / snack / lunch / snack / dinner
Get 1.4 / 2.5g of protein per kg of body
Do not rest less than 8 hours a night

These and many others are the cornerstones of Naturl Bodybuilding. If you respect them all you can start planning a correct integration. As you can see, we speak of PROGRAMMING, or organizing an "integrational intake based on" training and nutrition and not by chance.
Remember, the motto is always the same: "patience" and physical culture will give you everything back with due interest.
