Most athletes are so busy looking for that magic supplement that they tend to forget the basic needs of the human body for every single function it goes through. You need a continual supply of vitamins and minerals to assist all the activities that govern every growth process in the human body. By looking for that "magic supplement", many of you have ignored the basic micro-nutrients that are absolutely essential to muscle metabolism. This is where the basic multivitamin comes in. For the month of October with every $40 purchase or more we are giving a FREE Swiss Total One Multi Vitamin*.

Creatine is an acid produced in the liver that supplies some energy to muscle cells. The liver makes creatine out of three amino acids called arginine , glycine, and methionine. Most of the creatine the human body makes is then stored in the muscles that support the skeleton.
Over the years, supplement companies have tried to find ways to enhance the absorption of supplemental forms of Creatine. One of these ways includes the attachment of an “ester” group to Creatine to form “Creatine Ethyl Ester”. This is alleged to increase creatine bio-availability but yet another recent study proves this form is ineffective.
Study Shows Creatine Ethyl Ester is Inferior
Researchers examined how a 7 week supplementation regimen combined with resistance training affected muscle mass, strength, and power. Athletes were given Creatine Monohydrate, Creatine Ethyl Ester, or a placebo. The dose given to each subject was approximately 20 g per day for 5 days (loading phase), followed by approximately 5 g per day (maintenance dose) for 42 days.
Creatine Monohydrate Outperforms Creatine Ethyl Ester
Creatine ethyl ester did not show any additional benefit to increasing muscle strength or performance than creatine monohydrate or the placebo. Additionally, total body mass, fat mass, fat-free mass, and thigh muscle mass were not significantly enhanced with creatine ethyl ester supplementation compared to placebo or creatine monohydrate groups.

The latest contract signing involving a UFC Champion is Brock Lesnar who has signed a supplement endorsement deal with Dymatize.

Leucine works with the amino acids isoleucine and valine to repair muscles, regulate blood sugar, and provide the body with energy. It also increases production of growth hormones, and helps burn visceral fat, which is located in the deepest layers of the body and the least responsive to dieting and exercise.
Leucine is the most effective BCAA for preventing muscle loss because it breaks down and is converted to glucose more quickly. Increased glucose supplies preven t the body’s cannibalization of muscle for energy during intense workouts, so it is no surprise that this amino acid supplement is popular among professional athletes.Leucine is an essential amino acid, which means that it cannot be manufactured in the body and must be obtained through dietary sources. People that exercise a lot, have a low-protein diet, or are seriously trying to build muscle mass should consider leucine supplementation. Leucine is available in stand-alone supplemental form, but should always be taken together with the other two branched-chain amino acids, isoleucine and valine. Combination supplements that provide all three of the BCAAs may be more convenient.
