In terms of composition, the main components of protein powder are protein and amino acids, and the content of protein in protein powder is above 85%. Protein, carbohydrates, vitamins and other minerals are the ingredients of the muscle-building powder, and the content of protein is 25%-35%.
Essentially, there is no difference between protein powder and muscle building powder. They are all composed of protein and carbohydrates, but the carbohydrate content in muscle-building powder will be higher. So many people say that thin people should drink muscle-building powder and fat people should drink protein powder. But this is not the case. For a person, whether to drink protein powder or muscle powder depends on the purpose and time of his fitness training. Therefore, we must first understand our own situation and fully understand our daily food intake.
Second, choose protein powder or muscle powder according to your own situation.
1. If you insist on exercising every day, pay full attention to your diet and get enough calories and protein from food every day, then both supplements can be omitted. Because your body has absorbed enough nutrition from food, you don't need to supplement it with other supplements.
2. However, in normal life, many people's three meals are not balanced in nutrition, and the intake of protein per meal is not enough, so it is difficult for muscles to grow effectively. So at this time, you should choose protein powder or muscle powder according to your own situation.
3. If you are a family with difficulty in gaining muscle, or are in the bottleneck period of gaining muscle, the effect of using muscle-increasing powder is much better than that of protein powder. If the absorption is good, and the physical quality is good, and the basic diet can be maintained well, protein powder can be used.
4. If you are not very thin, use protein powder to supplement protein. Because extra carbohydrates or other nutrients can be taken from ordinary other foods, as long as enough protein can be ensured.
Seeing this, I believe everyone has a preliminary understanding of muscle gain powder and protein powder. But if you want to gain muscle, you can't just rely on these two supplements, but you must also pay attention to the most basic diet. Many people blindly supplement various supplements during exercise, but lose the key point of muscle training-basic diet. In fact, the correct food proportion arrangement also has a certain influence on the muscle growth of the body.
The above is what Bian Xiao summarized for everyone. I believe that everyone can choose the most suitable fitness supplement according to their physical condition. However, fitness supplements only play an auxiliary role, and no one can eat a muscle just by supplements. So in the final analysis, fitness needs to be sustained in the right way to see good results.
