Unilateral Exercises

Many of our go-to exercises like bench press can be great for strengthening, however if it’s the only way we train, we might be suffering in the long run.

Although this blog is intended to highlight the best supplements for mass building, we must reiterate that supplements alone are not the key to building muscle. Building muscle requires an adequate amount of food, from high-quality sources, with a big focus on protein. A good measure for protein intake is the recommended 0.8g-1.2g per pound of bodyweight. You should also have a mix of both complex and simple carbs, and healthy fats. 
 

The workout supplement and protein supplement is a multibillion dollar industry right now. Chances are, if you’ve been on the fitness side of the internet, you’ve probably heard of BCAAs and all the magic that they give. 
In their 60’s, men have a 50% chance of having an enlarged prostate. By the age of 80, nearly 90% of men will live with BPH, or benign prostatic hyperplasia.

Instead, your blood cholesterol is more influenced by the mix of fats and carbs you eat.
