How to Build Muscle | Supplement Guide | ApexVita
Increasing muscle mass takes a calorie surplus, consistent training and the right support. The three most proven supplements for building strength, size and recovery are protein powder, creatine and pre-workout — used together, they help you train harder and grow faster.
Protein Powder
Protein powder is a convenient way to increase your protein intake, which is essential for muscle growth and repair. Whey protein is the most popular choice as it's easily absorbed and contains all the essential amino acids your body needs to build muscle. Vegans, vegetarians and anyone who struggles to meet their protein needs from food alone benefit most.

Creatine increases strength and power during intense exercise by topping up your body's stores of ATP, its primary energy source for short, hard efforts. It's one of the most researched supplements available — over 700 human studies back its safety and effectiveness for building strength and muscular endurance.

A good pre-workout kick-starts your training session and helps you get more out of every set. Formulated with ingredients like caffeine, beta-alanine and citrulline, pre-workouts have been shown to improve power and performance so you can push harder and recover between sets.
