Author: Chris Chew Author Ranking Gold Featured Author | Posted: 22-02-2006 | Comments: 1 | Views: 340 | Rating:  (63) Article Popularity - Blue (?) Got a Question? Ask.

"Do I need body building supplements?", "Do I need protein supplements to build muscles?", "Aren't the nutrients from my meals sufficient to build bigger muscles quickly?"

At one time or another, all body building beginners must have asked themselves these questions. You probably had or else you wouldn't be reading this article.

The answer is yes. Body building supplements are necessary if you want your muscles to grow faster and bigger. This is because various supplements have its own benefits and they work differently to support your muscle growth. You will probably not be getting enough of them through your normal meals.

However, there are so many body building supplements in the market and choosing the correct supplementation to build your muscles is a daunting task for a body building beginner.

Not to fret though. As a body building beginner, you need only the basic supplementation to build your muscles effectively. You may need some other supplements when you are at the intermediate or advanced stages of body building.

So what are the necessary basic supplementation to help a beginner to build muscle mass?

•Protein Supplement - Without protein, your muscles will never grow. Protein is the fundamental supplement for every bodybuilder. You will need one gram of protein for every pound of your bodyweight per day to build bigger muscles quickly. This is a lot of protein and most people will never get enough of protein from their meals unless they are very small built.

•Creatine Supplement - Creatine can significantly increase muscle mass along with protein. It will also improve your lifting performances and raise your energy levels so that your workouts are more intensive and thus encouraging further muscle growth.

•Glutamine Supplement - Glutamine is a non-essential amino acid, which makes up to 60% of the amino acids in the muscles. Glutamine helps in your muscle recovery after your workout and also prevents muscle lost during catabolic periods.

•Vitamins and Minerals Supplement - Your muscles will need many vitamins and minerals for every stage of its function. Some vitamins and minerals are antioxidants and will also help in protecting muscle waste, help in muscle recovery and mopping up free radicals after your muscles are stressed and damaged when you workout.

There you have it. As a bodybuilding beginner, these are the only necessary supplementation you will need to help you build bigger muscles quickly.
