Are Protein Shakes More Important Than Real Food In a Bodybuilding Diet?
Real food is by far the most important component of a bodybuilding diet. There are so many nutrients that real food contains, many of which have not even been discovered yet, that you would be doing yourself a disservice by limiting the amount of real food that you are eating.
In addition, real food has what is called a “thermic effect”. A “thermic effect” is the impact that real food has in your metabolism. Because real food requires digestion, your body burns more calories in processing it; as opposed to shakes which are already pre-digested.
Everything You Need To Know About Protein Shakes and Protein Supplements
Protein Shakes – Why Use Protein Shakes?
Because of hectic schedules it is impossible to eat the six perfectly balanced daily meals required to get in shape. Protein shakes can be used as “fast foods”. They are easy to prepare (if it is a protein bar then no preparation is required) and most of the formulas that are available on the market today taste good. Having said that, there are many categories of protein supplements. Before we cover the different categories of protein supplements and how to use them, let’s talk about the different sources of protein found in these supplements.
Glutamine Basics – Preserve Lean Muscle Mass with Glutamine
What Is L-Glutamine?
L-Glutamine the most abundant amino acid in muscle cells. It is released from the muscle during times of stress (such as hard weight training workouts) and dieting. This amino acid not only has been shown to be a great anti-catabolic agent (protects the muscle from the catabolic activities of the hormone cortisol), to be a contributor to muscle cell volume, and to have immune system enhancing properties but also to help in the following ways:
1. Regulation of protein synthesis (this is one of the ways in which steroids exert their muscle building effects).
2. Accelerating glycogen synthesis after a workout.
3. Sparing the use of the glycogen stored in the muscle cell (recall that the glycogen stored in the muscle cell is what gives the cell the healthy volume and firmness that you seek).
4. Faster recuperation from weight training workouts.
