Barbie Guerra Lost Her Hands From Electric Shock, But She Still Does A Bodybuilding

Bodybuilders usually split their food intake for the day into 5 to 7 meals of roughly equal nutritional content and attempt to eat at regular intervals (normally between 2 and 3 hours). This method purports to serve 2 purposes: to limit overindulging as well as increasing basal metabolic rate when compared to the traditional 3 meals a day. However, research using whole-body calorimetry and doubly-labeled water has found no metabolic advantage to eating more frequently.
• Dietary supplements
The important role of nutrition in building muscle and losing fat means bodybuilders may consume a wide variety of dietary supplements. Various products are used in an attempt to augment muscle size, increase the rate of fat loss, improve joint health, increase natural testosterone production, enhance training performance and prevent potential nutrient deficiencies. Scientific consensus supports the effectiveness of only a some of commercially available supplements when used by healthy, physically active adults. Creatine is probably the most widely used performance enhancing legal supplement. Creatine works by turning into creatine phosphate, which provides an extra phosphorus molecule in the regeneration of ATP. This will provide the body with more energy that lasts longer during short, intense bits of work like weight training. Second to creatine is protein supplements, particularly whey protein (made out of whey protein concentrates and isolates) , which is a high-protein ingredient with high digestibility and biological value.
