In this type of training is a kind of classic set of exercises, the athlete needs to master from the beginning. This set includes exercises with free weights (bars and weights.)

In the world of bodybuilding, the hottest topic in the gym is always protein and protein supplements. No wonder, since the protein is important for building muscle, but there are also three common myths that you’re likely to hear about proteins and protein supplements too.

Recent research suggests that active people need 1.2 to 1.4 grams of protein per kilogram of body weight. This is 150% to 175% more than the recommended daily allowance of protein. The strength trainers need even more protein, and 1.7 to 1.8 grams of protein recommended for each kilogram of body weight for this group of people.

The research also found that athletes who only in the recommended daily amount of protein actually lose muscle instead of winning. This is due to a decrease in whole body protein synthesis, which is common in athletes. The increase of protein recommended for athletes helps the body maintain a good balance of nitrogen, which is essential for bodybuilding. (more…)
