The Original Muscle Weight Gain & Muscle Building Blog!!

Medical studies can help provide certain clues into many things, such as health issues that can directly affect positively or negatively our muscle building and weight gain efforts.  Case in point is a study in which 192 people with moderately high LDL cholesterol levels both raw garlic and garlic pills every day for 6 months, although their LDL cholesterol levels didn’t change.

Bravo to this study because it’s one of the few that actually demonstrates the worthless-ness of most nutritional and dietary supplements out on the market.  So many people these days want to fix everything with a pill instead of looking at their lifestyle…….including goals such as wanting to build more muscle and gain weight.

A recent study that was done by Cornell University revealed that the overweight individuals they surveyed didn’t stop eating until the plate was empty.  You may feel that eating like animal to gain muscular weight and build muscle may be the way to go.  Yes, you do need to eat a lot, but not everyday and to a certain extent, and under certain conditions and guidelines.  Not just for the sake of it.

According to Brian Wansink focusing on the food left on your plate and not what’s in your stomach influences you to keep eating…..which instead of muscle building can lead to a lot of fat building!
