This article gives a quick guide to what exactly is in the supplements we sell and what they do, enabling you to make an informed deision about what supplement might be best for you.

Whey protein eg. Optimum Nutrition 100% Whey Protein

For people looking to build lean muscle or tone up, whey protein is generally considered the highest quality protein for doing so. When buyng whey protein supplements choose whey protein isolate because although more expensive, it has a higher biological value  (meaning it is better absorbed by the body) than normal whey. it contains higher protein with hardly any carbohydrates making it perfect for those who wish to stay lean.

Fat Burners eg. CLA, PhD Lean Degree

Fat burners usually work by increasing metabolism, suppressing lipid absorption, decreasing hunger and as thermogenic intensifiers.

L-Glutamine  

Amino Acid involved in protein synthesis. Glutamine is an incredible muscle builder that also increases your natural growth hormone and immunity. it helps recovery and this in turn improves sporting performance.

Creatine

Creatine increases muscle gains and strength it also creates a lactic acid buffer during workouts allowing you to train harder for longer.
