Do you really need supplements to get strong? ( A thread 🧵) Most beginners rush to buy whey protein, creatine, or mass gainer. But miss the basics: training, food, and recovery. If you’re new to training, your biggest gains come from: 👉🏾 Consistent training. 💪🏾 👉🏾 Eating enough whole foods. 🍳 🍗 👉🏾 Sleeping 7-9 hours. 😴 👉🏾 Practicing good form. 🏋🏾♂️ Supplements cant replace these… Supplements become useful when: 👉🏾 You’re training hard 4-6x/week. 👉🏾 Your nutrition is dialed in. 👉🏾 You’ve hit a plateau. 👉🏾 You’re chasing performance, not just gains. 1/4

What does supplements actually do? Supplements fill the gaps in your nutrition or recovery and can provide a performance edge, but they don’t replace the basics. Creatine: Boosts power output. Protein powder: Fills nutrition gaps. Pre-workout: Improves energy & focus. Magnesium, D3, etc…: Supports recovery. What supplements can’t do: ❌ Fix a bad program. ❌ Replace sleep. ❌ Compensate for poor nutrition. ❌ Build discipline for you. 2/4

So when should you start using supplements? If you ask me, i would say… 🫵🏾 Once your training is consistent at least 6-12 months upwards. 🫵🏾 Your diet is solid, supplements can then fill the little gaps, this way, you won’t have to rely on supplements alone. 🫵🏾 When your progress has gotten slow. So those using supplements are not better than those not using it, and vice versa. It’s not a competition kids. You would see some people not using supplements and tag themselves “natural”. Mfer you get these things from food too, just in smaller quantities. 3/4
