The 5 Best Supplements for Summertime

The 5 Best Supplements for Summertime

Posted by onthegofitness Uncategorized

If your current workout regimen isn’t working for you, it might be time to take a look at your diet. Even if you’re eating healthy and consistently working out, but still not getting the results you want, it’s time to check out supplements. Supplements are not just for hardcore gym junkies; in fact, anyone can take them. 

As the provider of in-home personal training services in Alexandria VA, On the Go Fitness Pro understands that you might want to enhance your training and improve your strength, endurance, and recovery time — and adding supplements to your diet can help. Let’s get some insight on five of the best supplements that can help you achieve the summer body you’ve always wanted.

1. BCAAs

Branched-chain amino acids are responsible for boosting muscle growth and can improve exercise performance. BCAAS are the building blocks for protein, assisting in preserving blood sugar levels and reducing muscle fatigue. These amino acids are a great starter supplement because of these various benefits. Because it can both improve your workout and help you build muscle, it’s a win-win!

2. Whey Protein 

Whey protein is another popular supplement that’s excellent if you’re just starting to explore their benefits. Your body absorbs whey protein quickly, making it an ideal post-workout supplement to help you recover and build muscle. However, it can also be taken at other times in order to boost your protein intake, when sitting down for a full meal might not be convenient.

3. Creatine

Supplementing with creatine is very popular among athletes and bodybuilders in order to gain muscle, enhance strength, and improve overall endurance. Creatine is found naturally in muscle cells  and it helps you produce a high-energy molecule called ATP, enhancing your performance during heavy lifting or high-intensity workouts.

4. Glutamine

Glutamine is the most abundant naturally occurring, nonessential amino acid in the human body. And since amino acids aid in protein synthesis, it can help to reduce fatigue and decrease muscle soreness during and after exercise. On top of that, it boosts your immune system and promotes intestinal health.

5. Beta-Alanine

Beta-alanine is another amino acid, often found in pre-workout supplements, but can also be purchased and taken on its own. It aids in the production of carnosine, a compound that promotes muscle endurance during high-intensity exercise, helping to reduce fatigue and boost overall performance.
