Muscle Gain Supplements
Gaining quality lean muscle is not about stuffing your face with as much food as you can. You need a great workout plan, nutrition regime (both of which you can find on this site) and a selection of the best supplements.
Gaining muscle places a lot of stress on the body to cope with the demands you are placing on it in the gym. That is why you need the top quality supplements to help your body cope. We have selected some of our favourite muscle gaining supplements to help you pack on quality muscle.
Protein
What it does: Protein is the dominant nutritional supplement to help you gain quality muscle. It is so important we have created a page where we have recommended the best proteins on the market.
Top 'All In One' Muscle Gain Shake: Maximuscle Cyclone
Product: Maximuscle Cyclone
What it does: The UK's No.1 all-in-one muscle-growth shake to support rapid gains in lean muscle, strength and power. No other product on the market has the formula that Cyclone uses. It combines Biomax® whey, creatine monohydrate, glutamine, Suma extract (Beta-Ecdysterone), along with patent pending creatine and glutamine absorption systems.
Review: Maximuscle Cyclone is a fantastic all in one product for serious strength and size gains.
Price: £34.99 RRP: £43.99
MaxiRaw Beta Alanine
Product: MaxiRaw Beta Alanine
What it does: Primary Beta-Alanine powder offers any serious bodybuilder or athlete a highly effective addition to creatine monohydrate – for enhanced workout intensity, resistance to fatigue and muscle growth support. This ultra-pure powder contains extremely concentrated levels of the non-essential amino acid beta-alanine, research proven to increase intra-muscular carnosine levels for hardcore resistance to fatigue when lifting weights.
Review: A great addition to your stack if your goal is increased muscle size and strength. The research recommendations suggest 3.2-6.4g per day consumed approximately 60 minutes prior to exercise.
Price: £12.25
Pre-workout formula - Nitric Oxide Booster: PhD V-Max Pump
Product: PhD V-Max Pump
What it does: is a pre-workout muscle growth activation matrix that delivers increased strength potential, prolonged energy system realisation and a cell volumising stack which will give you a hardcore pump.
Review: PhD V-Max Pump does exactly what it says on the tub. It is a fantastic pre-workout formula that really ignites you and provides you with stimulation and key pre-workout nutrients for an intense workout.
Price: £25.92 RRP: £39.99
Creatine
Product: Maximuscle Creatamax 300
What it does: Studies report that the increase of creatine levels will help delay the onset of fatigue, increase energy metabolism in the muscle cells and enhance the body's overall training capability.
Review: Creatine is the most popular muscle gaining product after protein. We find that Maximuscle Creatamax creatine is easily absorbed and doesnt leave any uncomfortable side effects like bloating which can be found with poorer quality creatine. If you are looking to increase muscle size, reduce recovery time and improve sporting performance, then Maximuscle Creatamax is the product we suggest.
Price: £20.99
BCAAs
Product: MaxiRaw BCAAs
What it does: The BCAA's (Branch Chain Amino Acids), L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, and L-Valine, are probably the most essential amino acids for athletes in training. They account for 33% of muscle protein.
Review: BCAAs ingested before exercise may increase nitrogen retention, boost protein synthesis, and protect your muscles from the stress and trauma of heavy exercise.
However, if you have consumed a sufficient protein-rich diet then additional BCAAs may not be necessary.
Price: £28.60
