Steroids Done Right

Amino Acids are the building blocks of protein…ever heard that before? I’m sure you have, everyone has, but the fact of the matter is, its true.

If you want to gain weight and build muscle you absolutely must have large quantities of Amino Acids in your system. Try growing muscle without them.

One way to ensure that the amino acids you take are being used efficiently as quickly as possible is to load the body with aminos immediately before and immediately after the last set in your workout. This can be done by doing your workout as normal then preparing for one additional set to failure.

Lets us barbell curls as an example. Train the arm as normal and then after the last set, do one more set to failure. The arms will be so engorged with blood that the large quantities of amino acids in your system will be attracted to the stimulated area.

This method works extremely well, but you literally have to hit that last set like your life depended on it. Also I would not recommend that you use the amino tablets as they are hard to digest. You will have better luck with the liquid amino straight or in capsule form.

Here are a few Amino Acid Loading Tips:

- Do not forget the last high rep set at the end of each workout. This burns away at the glycogen level and increases efficiency of the intake of aminos.

- Opting for the liquid aminos is a good idea, but if you can’t find quality liquid, then I recommend you try the peptide-bonded aminos.

- Try not to eat to many carbs before the workout. Depleting the glycogen levels will help immensely with your muscle gains.
