Figure Competition Supplements
By Karen Sessions NSCA-CPT
Author of "Figure Competition Secrets"Have you ever reflected on the idea of competing in a figure competition? If so you have most likely done some researching and came across a multitude of things you need to do prior to entering your first figure contest. One of the largest controversies is whether to use figure competition supplements or not.
I will help you to make sense of all the figure contest supplement prep data to help you to contend in your next figure contest.
The primary thing a figure newbie will ordinarily do is stock up on a lot of supplements. Now, most
articles you will read will suggest that you don't need supplements, that you can construct a winning figure competitor's physique without them... Simply implement the ideal figure diet, weight training, and cardiovascular and viola'. Possibly, but that's often for the genetically blessed. The majority of us are not genetically gifted and need some top-quality supplements to help give an energy boost, increase the metabolism, aid in muscle recovery, etc. I'm not going to down figure competition supplements as they are helpful and the majority of the other figure competitors take them.
Acquiring a figure competition ready body isn't common, and it takes more than general dieting, cardio and training to prep. To get an extremely low body fat percentage and step on the figure stage your figure competition diet will need to be rather restrictive and joined with intense weight training, and more than average cardio. Figure prep is a process and it may be rather challenging to your body. With the correct supplement agenda you can preserve lean muscle tissue, keep your metabolism on fire, AND burn body fat.
Protein
You MUST consume sufficient protein to build and maintain muscle required to compete in a figure competition. Generally, the figure contest protein ratio is around one gram of protein for each pound of body weight. But, this may vary founded on the figure athlete's activity level. In this instance, protein supplementation will be beneficial. Otherwise you are going to be cooking and eating A LOT of meat daily. Consuming two protein shakes daily as snacks really provides you with your protein requirements for figure contest preparation.
Glutamine
Figure competition workouts and cardiovascular are challenging! Forceful resistance training and stress depletes your muscles of this wanted amino acid and your body cannot make sufficient quantities of it when you are hard-training. Glutamine is the most abundant amino acid in your body, and although the body can produce it, it's not enough to satisfy your body’s demands from training and dieting. To ensure you keep your lean muscle mass and melt your body fat, supplementing with glutamine is very beneficial.
Fat Burning Supplements
There are several forms of fat burners and one of the most popular fat burners are thermos. Thermogenics generate heat through metabolic stimulation causing your metabolism to fire-up and burn additional calories. Thermogenic fat burners generally work effectively when cycled to prevent your body from adapting to one set dose.
When taking figure competition supplements ensure you know what to take, when to take it, how much to take, and when to wean off of it. In addition, one more vital note about figure contest supplements is to be sure to choose quality supplements.
This is just a brief overview of figure contest supplementation. If you want the full plan of which supplements are good to take, how to take them and when to take them, as well as the supplements to leave on the shelf, you REALLY need take a look at "Figure Competition Secrets." It's the TOTAL figure contest diet and prep system to dominate your figure competition. If you aren't implementing "Figure Competition Secrets" your competition IS.
