Regardless of whether or not you choose to supplement, you will have to work hard for your achievements.
There doesn’t exist a magic pill that you can take for a couple of months and then walk out the door a mighty big man without putting in the work. Not even steroids will do this for you.
With that said, below are this site’s Bodybuilding Supplement Reviews…

Recommended Muscle Building Supplements
Not-So Recommended Bodybuilding Supplements
Anabolic Steroids
Yes, they work but they aren’t the answer for most trainers.
Prohormones
Now illegal in most places, these were once interesting muscle building supplements.
Weight Gain Pills
Why products claiming to get you quality weight from pill-popping are the biggest scams going.
GABA
Why the research they use to sell these muscle gain supplements isn’t so impressive when you investigate it a bit.
HGH Supplements
The HGH enhancers or releasers promise a lot more than they deliver.
Note: There are many, many more bodybuilding supplements being sold that, in my opinion, you are best off avoiding – Either they don’t work at all or their cost/benefit ratio is just too low. I just haven’t gotten around to doing bodybuilding supplement reviews for all of them.
Including (but not limited to)…
- Nitric Oxide Products (arginine)
- HMB
- Tribulus Terrestris
- Myostatin Products
- DHEA
- Ribose
You are well-advised to have your BS detector on full-strength whenever looking at muscle building and weight gaining supplements. As the saying goes, “If it sounds too good to be true, it probably is.”
If you don’t look to bodybuilding supplements to build muscle for you, where do you look?
Gaining quality muscle weight comes down to diet and training. It is really that clear-cut. The role of bodybuilding supplements will be relatively minor.
