About the time that I began bodybuilding, I bought Optimum 100% Gold Standard Whey. I used it for about a month but didn't gain even a pound of muscle, so quickly stopped using it and thought that it was a scam.
Had I done the research and found out about how to use supplements, before just charging in and buying some, I would have seen much better gains.
Now that I am no longer an amateur bodybuilder, I know more about these supplements and their uses. I found out the hard way that before you can get good results from them, you first need to get some essential things worked out.
The two key elements of bodybuilding, are your diet and workout routine. When you have these in place, your body will start to grow. And once you begin to see some significant results from your gym work, you can start in with the supplements to multiply this effect.
For your eating plan, you need to really concentrate on getting all those proteins in every meal. This way you'll be building muscle all day long once your doing the right kinds of exercises.
If you don't know what specific foods to put into your diet, go with some of the obvious ones at first. For instance, make sure that your eating a lot of meat and drinking loads of milk.
Once you've got that sorted out, make a start on designing your workout plan. This is not something that can be done overnight. Rather you should work on this over a matter of months. However, you can start off by 'borrowing' one from someone else and then taking the bits you like out of it and modifying it to meet your needs.
Some things that I have picked up over the years, is to never workout for over an hour. You should also try and exercise your entire body as this will tend to produce the best results.
When you have been exercising for some time, you can experiment with some bodybuilding supplements. And if you've been already experiencing gains at this point, your results will increase a lot.
