Increasing muscle mass.
A goal of many clients we work with, but one that can be misunderstood and at times, frustratingly hard to achieve.
As many of you pointed out, in our last post on gaining weight we failed to go through which supplements are important, and which are a plain right waste of money with absolutely no evidence.
Building a Strong Foundation for Increasing Muscle
When it comes to increasing muscle mass, nutrition fundamentals are key. There are always big rocks we need to prioritise, and muscle growth is no exception. The strategies we discussed last week remain essential—they form the foundation of any effective plan to build muscle.
It might surprise you to learn that dietitians are often cautious about prescribing supplements. Why? Because supplements are simply the cherry on top of a well-structured nutrition plan. They can enhance progress, but they can’t replace the basics like eating enough, timing your intake around training, and focusing on nutrient quality.
