Calisthenics Supplements and Diet
As I always say, I am not a big fun of supplements and the whole idea that you need to spend lots of money and stuff yourself with chemically engineered supplement to achieve your goals.
The shelves of your local GNC are packed with all kinds of bogus junk claiming to deliver results that only steroids can achieve
This includes pre-workout supplements, intra-workout supplements, post-workout supplements, test boosters, HGH boosters, nitric oxide supplements, anti-estrogens, aromatase inhibitors, and the list goes on and on.
If you believe half of the hype you read in supplement advertisements or on their labels, well, it would probably take a while before you realize the simple truth of the matter, which is…
Most everything you see in the world of workout supplements is utterly worthless.
Yup…a complete waste of money. Not all. But most. Additionally you can simply build strength and loose weight with none of them.
Let me emphasise it! You DO NOT NEED ANY SUPPLEMENTS to achieve your goals.
I’ve not only tried every type of supplement you can imagine, but I follow the science and what has been objectively proven—not flashy advertisements or paid endorsements.
That said, there are a handful of calisthenics supplements that actually are worth buying and using and I am gonna share some I have been using for years.
Most aren’t the sexy muscle-building crap pushed by ’roid monsters in the magazines, but they are scientifically proven to help you in your journey to building muscle, get lean, and stay healthy. Also for lats few years I have been looking into natural supplements like super foods and hemp protein which is just getting more and more attention is a great example of that
In this section of the site, I want to guide you through what you should considering supplementing with, and why, as well as share with you the exact products I use and like
So Here we go.
Protein
My all time favourite:
HEMP FORCE with MACA and COCOA
100% PLANT-BASED, VEGAN, GLUTEN FREE, NON-GMO
And here is why:
Hemp is the most nutritious sources of protein in the plant kingdom.
Hemp FORCE utilizes a rich and complete protein isolated from organic hemp seeds. Containing all of the essential amino acids, all three branched chain amino acids (BCAAs), and both essential fatty acids (Omega-3 and Omega-6), the protein profile of hemp seeds makes them one of the most nutritious sources in the plant kingdom.
Also they add Cocoa and maca root not only enhance the natural flavor of the hemp, but also contain several antioxidant and bioactive compounds beneficial for peak performance. Hemp FORCE supplies the body with an all-natural, easily digestible protein supplement with a nutrition profile unlike any other protein food available.
And it taste awesome. I love it!
SUNWARRIOR RAW PROTEIN
100% PLANT-BASED, VEGAN, GLUTEN FREE, NON-GMO
Sunwarrior Protein-Vanilla is Raw and Vegan protein made from 100% brown rice protein, which is utilized very efficiently by the body (similar to beef in terms of absorption rate), and it tastes great.
Our Friend Frank Medrano uses it with a scoop of maca (note maca is already included in Hemp Force)
If you are looking for a complete resource which will guide you through each step on the journey. I have something very special for you.
DIET PLAN
Renegade Diet is one of the best and used by a lot of calisthenics athletes to bring incredible results in a short period of time.
