Great physiques have been built for thousands of years on food and
exercise. Supplements seem to have a short history outside of current times. I
mean for me in the 80's a pre-workout was fruit or fruit juice. I wasn't timing
anything. I lifted, walked home and drank some milk. Maybe made a sandwich and
grew all the same.
I didn't slam whey and carbs. I
didn't have casein at bedtime. And the BCAAs I had came from whole foods ....
unless I saved enough lunch money to buy some dessicated liver tablets.
Since then I've tried every
supplement imaginable with a lot of healthy skepticism. The skepticism comes
from reading 35 years worth of claims from supplement manufacturers.
But alas I still look for that
magic pill.
I do believe in my fish oil, creatine and protein powders. But I know that I could still be well off without
any of it.
Here's some skepticism sources for you:
