In this article, I will tell you about the sports nutrition that you need to stock up on if you want to lose weight or get leaner. Which, in principle, is the same thing. Generally, people who have a lot of excess weight usually lose weight, while those who need to drop a few kilograms do so, especially before competitions. But the essence of both processes is the same – fat burning. So, be prepared to shell out a good amount of money for this complete set. How much? You’ll find out at the end of the article. However, the supplements are listed in order of their importance for fat burning. If you don’t have enough money, just get what you can afford, starting from the first item on the list. There will be a total of 5 supplements. Of course, there are many more types of sports nutrition that help combat fat to some extent. But I focused on the 5 main ones that will give you 90% of the effect as if you bought everything that is available. Let’s get started. 1. ProteinIn general, protein alone does not burn fat. But it helps maintain your muscles and prevents them from shrinking as you lose weight. In addition, part of your regular food can be replaced with protein. And for weight loss, this is even necessary. This will shift your dietary balance in favor of proteins. Consequently, the amount of fats and carbohydrates in your diet will decrease. In other words, by making your diet more protein-rich, you will kill two birds with one stone: help your muscles stay and help fat leave. However, for burning fat, you need not just any protein but one that has almost no carbohydrates and fats. That is, a high-protein isolate. Such proteins are quite expensive. Here are some examples of proteins that are suitable for weight loss: All these proteins have over 85% protein and are almost fat and carbohydrate-free. As you can see, the cost of 1 kg of such protein will be around 2000 rubles or more. Women need about 70 grams of protein per day, which amounts to 2 kg per month. Men, on the other hand, require about 100 grams per day, which translates to 3 kg of protein per month. In general, this protein will cost you about 5000 rubles per month. 2. Fat BurnerThis refers to complex supplements. Specifically, your fat burner should have the following effects:
Not all fat burners possess all these qualities. However, it's important to understand that for the best effect, a complex influence on the problem is necessary. The more effects a supplement has, the better the overall impact. Here are some products that possess all of the above: These products will cost you around 2000 rubles per month (when calculated per month). The dosage ranges from 2 to 4 capsules per day, depending on your weight and individual tolerance. 3. L-CarnitineThere has already been a great deal said about it, both on my site and others. The main thing to know is that it does not burn fat directly. It gives you energy and helps the body break down fat under certain conditions. In general, it is beneficial, and the energy it provides will never be unnecessary. Daily doses of carnitine are around 4000 mg of the active ingredient (that is, pure carnitine). Here are some examples of good, inexpensive products:
This will cost you another approximately 2000 rubles a month. It does not matter whether this carnitine is liquid, in capsules, or powder – it makes no difference. 4. Vitamin and Mineral ComplexThe fact is, fat burning implies a calorie deficit diet. This also means a deficiency in vitamins and minerals, many of which help combat fat in one way or another. Moreover, it is difficult to be energetic and give your all in workouts when you lack vitamins. Therefore, it will not hurt to take a vitamin and mineral complex:
This will also cost approximately 2000 rubles a month. Of course, you can buy vitamins and minerals at the pharmacy. But don’t think it will be cheaper. Yes, at first glance, pharmacy vitamins may be cheaper. But if you compare the compositions, you will see that pharmacy products are much poorer in their compositions and dosages than their counterparts in sports stores. 5. TribulusTribulus, as you know, stimulates testosterone production. And testosterone stimulates fat burning and muscle mass growth. The more muscle you have, the easier it is to burn fat. So indirectly, tribulus (and everything that boosts testosterone) can be considered a fat burner. The average daily dosage for women is about 2000 mg of the active substance. For men, it is 3000-4000 mg per day. By the way, women should not be afraid to take it; they will not grow facial hair. Tribulus has nothing in common with steroids. Here are some examples of good products: This will cost you another approximately 1500 rubles a month. I recommend that when purchasing tribulus, you pay attention to the saponin content, which should be indicated in the composition. The average saponin content is about 40% - 45%. ConclusionIn total, you will spend about 12000 – 13000 rubles a month. That’s a considerable amount. But the effect will correspond. Of course, it would be good to combine this with a proper diet and workouts. And generally speaking, if we break down the success into percentage proportions, I would do it like this:
As you can see, you can progress in terms of fat burning even without sports nutrition. However, with sports nutrition, it becomes 20% easier and faster. Additionally, many sports nutrition products help not only in sports but also in everyday life. The same vitamins and minerals, for example. By the way, the product options I provided in this article are not the only good ones. There are many quality brands available now. I provided this selection simply as one option. And once again, I’ll say that if you can’t afford everything, start your purchases from the top of the list. Good luck! SIMILAR ARTICLES
