Is muscle building powder the same as arginine?
The general relationship is as follows: Muscle-increasing powder mainly supplements protein, and protein is composed of amino acids. There are many kinds of amino acids that make up different protein, and the compound of several amino acids is called arginine.

Simply put, arginine is an amino acid that adults don't need, and it is not necessary to supplement arginine to gain muscle.

But now that fitness is in full swing, there are many specious myths circulating in the amateur fitness circle. It seems that if you eat more nutritional supplements, you will gain more muscles. Anyway, there are many people who are not short of money now, and they have indeed eaten a lot. Even if it doesn't work, it won't do much harm.

In my opinion, it is enough for junior trainers to eat muscle-building powder. When you are advanced to the professional level, you should also figure out what to eat and what not to eat (individual pertinence).

Similarly, it depends on how many times a person eats muscle powder a day. General plan: Take 30 grams of protein each time, and if the amount is not enough, take it in batches. The daily intake in protein is about 1 ~ 1.5g/kg body weight, and the maximum intake should not exceed 2.5g/kg body weight.
