The Most Common Diet Mistakes During an Intense Workout Routine- Part 3

Mistake: Counting on supplements to do the work.

This is a huge newbie mistake that, honestly, a lot of veteran bodybuilders still do. Now, completely and truly honest, you don't need any supplements to achieve massive muscle gains. However, I do understand that some supplements make it a lot easier. And some actually give you vital nutrients that you may not be getting, depending on your diet.

At the beginner stage, supplements definitely aren't worth the money. You need to get into the habit of sticking with your workout routine first, and then start adding supplements. There will come a point where you're building your body up much faster than it's ready for, and at that point you can either slow down for a little while and let your body catch up, or you can begin taking some supplements to boost that growth.

The choice is up to you. I have my own opinions that you should never push your body past functionality, but I know that many people go for looks, especially competitive bodybuilders. My sole advice is to make sure you're getting as much as you can out of quality foods in your diet, and then begin adding supplements after that.
