The global nutraceutical market was estimated to be $140.1 billion US dollars in 2010. Concerns have arisen over the increasing cases of adulterated products in the market which threaten the health of the consumer and the continual growth for the nutraceutical industry.

US rulings such as the 1994 Dietary Supplement Health and Education Act (DSHEA), the 2007 Good Manufacturing Practice of Dietary Rule and comparable rules from other countries have set guidelines to ensure product safety and manufacturing compliance.   outgoing raw materials and finished products The U.S. House of Representatives has passed legislation clamping down on designer steroids and pro-hormones and giving more powers to the DEA.

Glute Training

I would like to start this article about the glutes with a picture and explanation about the pectoralis. Why, because most bodybuilders know more about their pecs then about their butt.

We are all born with a genitical determent body-type and all our muscles have a certain form. Of course we would all like to have the perfect form and body-type as well as a six-pack. Its only sad that most of us will have to work hard to get those hot desired full round muscles.

Chicken legs

Almost everyone has a favorite muscle group they like to train and develop best. For most of the new or young builders this is the biceps/arms. Why is this, probably because strong arms and especially the flexed biceps is the summum of showing your strength. On the other hand, most people also have a muscle group they don’t like to train. And mostly that is legs.

Developing oak tree legs asks a lot of dedication and hard work. Training the legs wears you out and is often very painful, moreover most people don’t consider muscular legs as "sexy" as the biceps. They are often covered up and no eye catcher as fully pumped arms.

In the last decade the usage of growth hormone and IGF-LR3 became common among bodybuilders, anti-agers and fitness enthusiasts.

In the beginning people where cautious because they feared side-effects after continuous growth hormone use. And the price was very high also.

Nowadays we see that most discussion-boards have a peptide section. And it’s no longer restricted to GH and IGF. People that used the cadaver extracted GH, will tell you mixed GH is much more effective than the synthesized version. So people started to experiment with GH releasers aka secratogogues.

Research has overwhelming shown that when administering one GH peptide from each class in conjunction (GHRH + GHRP), a synergist effect is achieved, eliciting superior results compared to using just one alone. For this reason, it has been common practice to combine both a GHRH and a GHRP for years. This practice is well-founded, as it is backed not only by credible science, but by a massive amount of anecdotal evidence in terms of both personal experience and user blood work.

Because some bodybuilders wanted to mimic natural GH release they experiment with pulsing their dose in 2 or 3 injects per day. There are many different injection protocols with many different injection frequencies for GH releasers and combinations there off.

AGE’s - Aging and Bodybuilding

Too many ages will make you fat. But the longer-term consequences are much more severe. A process starts in which “silent” inflammation occurs in different parts in your body. Your arteries get clogged, your brain deteriorates and your kidneys can’t do their job properly. If this process does not stop, you have a greater chance of getting Alzheimer's or on a premature death by heart and vascular disease.

First saturated fat was the main culprit in cancer and cardiovascular disease, but that was not true. Then we all went “low carb” because we became too heavy from all those unhealthy sugars and carbohydrates. And now that story can also be thrown into the trashcan?

 

Not really. Sugars and fast carbs are still not good, too much sugar (especially fructose) chases the spontaneous formation of AGE’s in your body
