Dietary Supplements

Most people don’t announce that they are taking diet pills or metabolic enhancers and are even less likely to tell others that they are chugging down creatine or testosterone stimulants. One thing I have noticed to be consistent with all of our ailment “Cure Alls” is that people think that they can just keep taking these products and they will get and maintain the results the products promise. 

NO! It does not work that way. Your body adapts to what ever you put it through. This can be your diet, level of exercise, or any external enhancers you may subject your body to. When a product says “Cycle the consumption” or “Cycle with another product” ('cycle' means to intake the product for X number of days and then stop taking for X number of day and do it again) that is because your body will adapt in an average amount of time and then what you are consuming is no longer a benefit. With outside stimulants you need to stop taking it for a period of time so that your body will once again intake a new stimulant and produce results again.

When you are good to your body and keep the appropriate eating habits and an exercise regiment you will also find plateau. This is where you feel like you are stuck and can’t lose more weight or you can’t get another brick on your weight lifting pile. Just like with the product enhancers, your body will adapt and maintain what you have set as a norm, so to make a personal improvement you need to shake it up a bit for a period of time to get the body to respond and improve. When you reach your next level of personal gains you can go back to a maintaining mindset (and then hit it again when you want a little more).
