Health Tips : Build muscle mass?
Muscle powders have been around for years and the ads are no longer in just muscle mags. the ads can now be seen during sports shows, namely televised body building competitions.
They’re so convincing that it’s hard to believe they do not help build muscle any faster — but they don’t.
Although extra calories are needed whenever you markedly increase your exercise routine, the increase doesn’t need to come from only protein, which is what a lot of the labels on the muscle powders imply.
The actual need for protein only goes up about 10 to 15 grams per day (and that is for a serious five to six day split routine!).
The calories should actually come from complex carbohydrates, such as beans, potatoes, and whole grains. Do not forget, the calories that you do not use will be converted and stored as fat.
