do we need supplement?

I used a lot of supplement when I started working out. The gain is really good. I shot from 1.72m 55kg to 68kg in less than 2 months. I started to be anti supplement during my late training stage. I will try to explain clearly about the usage of supplement, why am I pro & anti against them at different stages of my training.

(Bodybuilding) supplements are substances taken by athletes involved in weight training or other sport to aid in the building of muscle mass or aid fat loss. Bodybuilding supplements may also be used to improve sports performance and improve recovery from events and training. (Definition taken from Wikipedia.com)

As I have kept stressing, there is no miracle pill/supplement in this world. One will never get his/her desired body just by popping pills or eating some powder. I have seen skinny people who want to gain lean muscle mass. They eat a lot of mass gainer (ok, their mass gainer can be lousy, I’ll explain why later), their training is can be decent, but their diet is very lousy. They cannot expect to put on a lot of muscle mass by having 3 servings of mass gainer a day & not eating properly for the rest of the day. Without proper utilization of the supplement, they are just passed out from their body, unused. This is why some people can have “expensive urine”

The same goes for people who used thermogenic products (eg: Hot Rox) to lose fat. They cannot expect to lose the fat on their body by just popping 3 pills a day down their throat & eating junk food for the rest of the day.

By working out properly & dieting properly without supplement, you can definitely reach your desired body. Hard work & discipline are a must. The process can take from 2 months to 6 months, although you can see significant changes in your body in a month. This process can be shorter, the result can be better, when proper workout & diet are coupled with the usage of supplement.
Eg: for fat loss, the rate of fat loss can be faster when used with thermogenic products.
Another good reason for usage of supplement is the ease and convenience of feeding your product with product which you may not have the time/effort to prepare.
Eg: Usage of Meal replace product (MRP). For busy people who wish to get the required 5 meals a day, they can substitute a meal or 2 with MRP. BUT, it’s definitely not good for people who eat 3 MRP a day without any real food.

A quick summary, with right usage of supplement, they are good. Without the right usage, you are better off without supplement. There are many different types of supplement available for different training goal.
