Muscle and Strength

This blog will give you some advice about muscle-gain/strength and foods to help build muscle. Also check my other blogs related to health, exercise and fitness on pregnancy, healthy foods and much more, thank you.


Watermelon makes you stronger.....


Studies have shown that an amino acid found in watermelon has the potential to boost the amount of weight you can handle and add more reps to your workout. The acid, known as Citrulline malate, buffers muscle fatigue if you consume it daily.


Protein Shakes add years on your life.....


Now even more reason to enjoy your protein shakes before, after workouts and as mid-day snacks. 
Scientific studies have shown that consuming amino acids, the building blocks of protein, can increase your lifespan by up to 12%. The amino acids digested when you drink one protein shake a day increase activation of the mitochondria in cells, which in turn, slow down the ageing process.


Muscle-Building Tip.....


Studies carried out by University of Winconsin found you lift faster in the evening, which increases muscle growth overnight. 
Also, 20 minutes after your workout enjoy a bowl of Shreddies. Research from the university of Texas showed them to cause a 17% boost in the muscle-building process.


Build an impressive chest by doing crossover cables. This exercise will also keep your shoulders and rotator cuffs free from injury, and works your abs.




And that's about it for now, with just a few tips about muscle building and foods. Hope you enjoy and please check my other blogs, and look out for the ones to come, thanks again.
