Eating and gyming

When you are out gyming you need energy for long periods of time time. This is why you should be eating foods that will keep your blood/sugar level low and give you a constant energy boost, not sugar like products that will spike your energy just for a short period of time. The foods that keep your energy supply going for a long period of time are known as low GI products. Generally most of these products have low GI written on the packaging. These are generally products such as brown bread, seeded bread and so on. Happy gyming!

Home gym or sign up?

Most people think that it is cheaper for them to sign up at a gym because weights are too expensive. However gym fees are slowly rising and eating holes in your pocket. You might want to look at buying your own weights and equipment. It might be expensive at first but once you have them they are there forever!

Water is the way

When taking supplements your kidneys are under a lot of pressure to take in all the extra protein. This is why it is essential to drink lots of water so that your kidneys can keep functioning to their full potential.

Supplement usage

Most people generally think that it is necessary to use supplements when they are gyming. This is not true to an extent. You first need to gym without using any supplements so that you are naturally fit before you start taking supplements. This will help your body use those supplements effectively when you eventually take them.
