Supplements to Take

One thing that is extremely helpful in allowing you to accomplish the goals you set for yourself at the gym is taking the right supplements in addition to your workouts. Taking supplements seem very scary and not necessary and honestly I thought the same thing at first, but I know now that if you truly want to be successful you have to take at least a few supplements. The first supplement that I would buy if your a beginner trying to get into lifting would be the Whey protein. I know I sound like a broken record with this stuff, but I truly believe it is essential and has helped me a lot through my own process. Whey protein is great post workout drink because it will help you recover fast. I like to mix my scoop of Whey with milk because I then get a good mixture of protein and casein. Both are essential, but you can just add your scoop to water. Other supplements I recommend would be a good Multivitamin that gets you a good dose of Vitamin C & B, as well as Iron and Zinc. My daily routine usually consists of eating a hearty breakfast followed by me taking a Mutlivitamin, a Vitamin C & B, and lastly a fish oil. I take two more fish oils after my other two meals and will make a Whey protein shake sometime during the day as well. Others will tell you to take supplements like Creatine and Casein, but I feel you get the Casein with milk and I just have never been a fan of Creatine.
