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?
