Bodybuilding Supplements

Some years back I worked for Victor Conte, who headed a company called BALCO -- Yes, THE BALCO that has been involved in the big sports steroid scandal.

Part of my job was research. This involved searching the web for intel about trace minerals and their effects on human performance.

(And since you are wondering, no, I did not know any steroid distribution was going on back then, and I don't think any was.)

My perusal of peer-reviewed medical journals and Internet material indicated that trace minerals absolutely affect athletic performance. At some other time I shall write a more lengthy comment on this subject.

What I want to focus on here is the fact that of the nutritional supplements one sees advertised in bodybuilding magazines, most are absolute junk. They make immense profit for the companies producing them, but they do nothing for a bodybuilder's health or physique. To give an example of prices, what costs around $4 to make and package often sells for $30 or more.

Two legal supplements and only two supplements seem to me to be effective. One of them is creatine, which comes out in many different brands. This is fairly well-recognized as being effective for bulk-gaining. The other product is ZMA, which is sold under a number of different brand names. Peer-reviewed research simply proves that this improves recovery and muscle gain. I wouldn't bother with any other bodybuilding supplements. Their main ingredients are greed, deception and fraud.

Just for the record I have no commercial connection with anyone who makes supplements.
