#51 - Supplements: Are There Any Worth Taking?
About this episode
Supplements are a huge industry, and showing no signs of slowing down. The idea that a pill, or a powder, or a drink can transform your fitness and body composition is irresistible, it seems, as people continue to pour billions of dollars into the supplement industry. Do any of them actually work though? And if so, which ones?
Dr. Robert Santana and Coach Trent Jones wade through the most popular performance enhancing supplements, and offer an opinion which runs counter to what most will tell you: most of them DON'T work, and if you aren't training hard and cultivating healthy daily habits, NONE of the will work! For those of you willing to do the hard work, however, there are a couple supplements which might help you gain a little edge in the gym. But you probably didn't need it anyway.
