Supplements for Triaths to Build Muscle (Page 2)

THis clearly seems like a guys thread, but I"ll give it a whirl. The original poster says, "I'm probably eating too many carbs." I'd say focus on a natural, unprocessed whole diet that includes complex carbs, whole grains for sustained energy, lean proteins (fish, soy, eggs, nuts, turkey) and healthy fats (olive, nuts, salmon), along with plenty of veggies and a few fruits. It sounds very basic, but until you've really sat down and given it a good shot by balancing your diet, i think that spending time & money on muscle supplements is silly. You really can get all the protein you need for a triathlete's body from your regular diet. Focus on the basics first, we can never stop trying to master them.
