Six Small Meals a Day

Wednesday, October 29th, 2008

I know that when one is thinking about healthy ways to gain weight high school wrestling is definitely not the first thing that comes to mind. Ironically, though I learned several ways to lose weight, it was wrestling that helped me stumble upon a smart way to build muscle mass. Several of my buddies had been cutting weight by what some would call controlled anorexia. Seeing how weak this made them during practice, I set out for a way to lose weight and still maintain my strength.

I began to read books, magazines, and internet articles that would help me develop a way I could metaphorically have my cake and eat it to. I found the “six small meals a day “diet while in my research. When I began the diet not only did I find that I was losing a substantial amount of weight healthily, I was also gaining muscle mass much faster than I had before. I was really pleased with the results of this diet and would suggest it to anyone who has a healthy work out program.

Placebos Can Give False Credibility To Muscle Building Supps

According to a recent research column in Muscular Development magazine, and I quote, “Bud Winter, the legendary track coach of Olympic athletes such as John Powell, Lee Evans, Tommy Smith, and John Carlos, used to to give his athletes “Bud Winter super pills” to improve performance. Winter claimed the pills helped his athletes run faster, even though they were made from sugar. They were nothing more than placebos that worked by the power of suggestion…..Placebos show the importance of positive thinking for success in bodybuilding and sports”.

As I’ve always written, many, of not most supplements aimed at muscle building and gaining weight, such as shakes, pills, powders, and bars, are not what will help you build and gain muscular weight. The big factors in accomplishing this will always be having the right workout routine and eating the correct amount of calories, week in and week out. How many people do you yourself know that takes every bodybuilding supplement known to man, yet don’t ever seem to gain any weight, or build any more muscle mass? What about prisoners? They don’t take any of those nutritional supplements, yet they’re bigger than your average gym rat? Kind of makes you wonder, doesn’t it?
