Top Supplements for Building Muscle and Increasing Energy
In this video, the speaker shares their personal experience with different supplements that have worked well for them in terms of building muscle and increasing energy. The supplements discussed include HMB, essential amino acids, whey protein shake, NMN, and turkesterone.
HMB
- HMB or beta-hydroxy beta-methyl butyrate is a byproduct of leucine.
- Studies show that HMB reduces exercise-induced muscle damage and catabolism.
- The speaker noticed that taking HMB makes it easier to maintain and build muscle tissue.
- While studies show that HMB doesn't necessarily build additional muscle tissue, it reduces muscle catabolism which can lead to positive anabolic state.
Essential Amino Acids and Whey Protein Shake
- Essential amino acids and whey protein shake help increase protein synthesis which helps maintain and build muscle tissue.
- These supplements are especially effective when doing intermittent fasting.
NMN
- NMN or nicotinamide mononucleotide is an NAD+ booster.
- The speaker noticed increased energy levels when taking NMN, especially when experiencing circadian mismatch or short nights of sleep.
Turkesterone
- Turkesterone is a form of ecdysteroid that may have some anabolic effects.
- Studies show that turkesterone may help with muscle growth and protein synthesis in animals and insects, but there is limited evidence for its effectiveness in humans.
Trickesterone and Progesterone
In this section, the speaker talks about their experience with taking trickesterone and progesterone supplements for muscle growth.
Trickesterone
- The speaker reports feeling 5-10% stronger when taking trickesterone.
- The speaker has tested trickesterone several times and believes that it is not a placebo effect.
- The speaker notes that trickesterone has not been shown to have any superior effects for muscle growth in humans.
Progesterone
- The speaker was already aware that progesterone shouldn't work for muscle growth but wanted to test it anyway.
- After testing progesterone on and off, the speaker noticed an increase in protein synthesis similar to HMB, creatine or essential amino acids.
Glycine
In this section, the speaker discusses their experience with taking glycine as a supplement.
- Glycine is beneficial for sleep quality, blood sugar regulation, collagen synthesis, skin health and joint health.
- The speaker notes that they were already in good health before taking glycine but noticed a significant difference after starting to take it.
- Even though the speaker is already relaxed, they still notice the benefits of glycine.
