As a strength athlete, your training is obviously a top priority. 💪 But if you're not fueling your body with the right nutrients, all that hard work in the gym could go to waste. That's why nutrition is just as important as training when it comes to building strength.

If you want to see real progress and hit new PRs, you need to treat nutrition as seriously as you treat your training. 🏋️‍♂️ That means making sure you're getting enough protein to support muscle growth, eating plenty of healthy carbohydrates to fuel your workouts, and staying hydrated to support recovery. 💦

It also means paying attention to what you're putting into your body outside of the gym. Are you fueling your body with nutrient-dense foods, or are you filling up on junk food that will only slow you down? 🍔🍟 Are you getting enough sleep and managing stress, both of which can impact your body's ability to recover and grow? 😴😫

Don't neglect the importance of nutrition when it comes to building strength. Treat it with the same level of commitment and dedication as your training, and you'll see the results you're after. 🏋️‍♀️🍎👊

Amino acids have become a popular supplement in the sport/fitness world over the past 10+ years but how many of you really understand what they are aside from knowing that they aid in recovery?
Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins that can be used in hundreds of different functions throughout the body. How most people are using them in peri workout formulas is to increase the body's ability to synthesize the additional 11 non essential amino acids to create a complete chain of 20 amino acids which equates to a complete chain or strand of protein that can then go be used to grow hair, repair muscle, it can be used for food as is or be converted to another nutrient, or for any other growth/maintenance of the body's tissues. It can also be broken down so the body can take components of this protein and used hundreds of other ways but we don't have time and character space for that here.
Know what you're taking. The bulk of amino acid products out there only contain the 3 main brached chain amino acids Leucine. Iso-Leucine and Valine. The word "branched" just means their molecular structure has branches on it but they are part of the ESSENTIAL amino acid group.
Why do companies cut these out from the rest of the essential group?
Some studies have shown increases in these amino acids increase the potential for muscle growth, but I've also seen the opposite where too much of any combination of these may also inhibit muscle growth.
There's sooooo much more that goes Into what factors can help push someone into building more muscle that it's my opinion that you can't just bank on one factor alone such as ingesting amino acids. Plus all the artificial sweeteners and gut biome disruptors and well, wouldn't you just rather eat more food?
Essential amino acids can be found in all beef, poultry, fish, eggs, dairy, soy, quinoa. And buckwheat and are also known as complete protein foods.
