Who Is The Best IFBB Bodybuilder
 
CLA
CLA, or conjugated linoleic acid, is a chemical variant of an Omega-6 fatty acid that, according  to   recent  research,   may  have  anticarcinogenic and growth-enhancing properties. Of  greater importance to researchers and dieters alik is CLA's apparent ability to manipulate the activity of certain enzymes, which in effect release more fat into the bloodstream. Once there, fat can be transported to other cells and burned as fuel.

The Principle of Pre-exhaustion
Many bodybuilders, in their pursuit of maximum muscle mass, use basic exercises. Practice shows that these exercises, especially the standard ways of performing them, are not always the most effective in stimulating maximum muscle growth for different reasons – weariness, poor development or not good enough recovery of the accessory muscle groups. The principle of pre-exhaustion is an out of the ordinary method of dealing with this problem.
The idea behind this principle is to do first an isolation exercise for a given muscle group and then repeat the series with a basic exercise working the same muscle group. Basic exercises are the ones which work the main muscle group and a great number of synergists (groups of muscles working together). Isolation exercises are those which work the main muscle group and a minimum number of synergists.
The method described reminds of compound set. A compound set is in fact performing two exercises one after the other for one and the same muscle group, but the basic exercise is done first and then the series continues with the isolation exercise.
Barbell bench press is a basic (combined) exercise . The main load is taken on by the chest muscles, but the exercise is specific in that part of the load is carried by the triceps . If the triceps are incapable of performing the part of work that is assigned to them, the whole movement becomes more difficult. This can happen when they are not strong enough or if they are tired. When the triceps are not able to perform their task in lifting the load, they get tired before the chest muscles, so the chest will not be effectively worked.  If, for instance, you have to do eight repetitions and for tiredness of the muscles you stop at the fourth or the fifth, the chests won’t be worked enough.

Fight Cancer With Whey Protein
If you think that you are only building muscles with your whey protein supplements, think again. You may also be beefing up your ability to fight cancer. Scientists at Ohio State University have found that whey protein can boost levels of glutamine. Glutamine, a natural antioxidat,  can help fight free radicals, the chemicals that promote cancer. Free radicals pull electrons from cell membranes (among other places), injuring tissues in the process. The damage caused by free radicals has been shown to promote cancer. So, especially for athletes, it is important to fight free radicals with hefty doses of antioxidants. And remember, guys, this means whey protein might help fight prostate cancer as well.

 
Muscles - Interesting Facts
The muscles are the organs that enable us to move. They are built up of groups of fibers. The brain sends different commands to the muscles and they contract or extend. The muscles are attached to the bones by connections resembling ropes, called tendons. When the muscles contract they pull the tendons, which in their turn pull the bones and a movement is performed in this way.  
There are over 640 muscles in the human body which do not work independently. They are organized into groups. Different movements work different muscle groups, while the others are resting.

Almost half of our weight is due to the muscles.
 
Voluntary muscles
Most of our movements, for example the movements of the arms and legs, are controlled by our thoughts.
Muscle action is controlled by the brain which sends and receives signals from the nervous system. The muscles which take part in these movements are worked consciously and are called voluntary muscles.

Crunches - Abdominal
Crunches focus on upper abdomen, especially on rectus abdominis (the abs) and, to a lesser extent, the internal and external obliques. They make it possible to bend the spine without the hip joints taking part, which provides maximum stimulation of the abdominal muscles. It must be noted however that they should be done on a flat bench with feet unlocked.  If a Roman chair is used, the feet are locked in the special roller, the hip joints participate actively in the movement and its effect on the abdominal muscles is lessened.

Tne Squat - Good and Bad News - Quadriceps, Glutes

The truth about the pain in the knees
Is it true that the full squat is a prelude to arthritis?

The squat has always been a controversial exercise. While some call it the king of exercise for its terrific muscle growing effect, the squat is also a source of debate among power athlete coaches and scientists. Few would contend that doing squats in bad physical shape is hazardous. This involves rising from utmost lower position, lowering too quickly and extreme forward bending, so that lower back is subject to excessive stress.

CGT (Creatine Monohydrate, L-Glutamine, Taurine)
Creatine is a natural component of the human body, 95% of it is concentrated in skeletal muscle. It is of extreme importance for the muscle function, because it helps (as a creatine phosphate) for re-synthesizing of adenosine triphosphate - ATP, which is a great source of energy during the training. It is an established fact that its intake for several weeks could result in 10% increase of the strength endurance.
