Arnold Schwarzenegger was quoted, " It's as satisfying to me as, uh, coming is, you know? As uh, having sex with a women and coming.
" There aren't many physical experiences that can be better than sex, but if you are an avid weightlifter as I am, you know what Arnold is describing.
This very euphoric experience we have late in the day while strength training is the vein-swelling "pump".
This feeling is not only a mind/body emotion, but actually stimulates and amplifies muscle growth.
The "pump", scientifically called exercise-induced hypermia, is a process created when natural nitric oxide is released into the blood.
Nitric oxide promotes muscle growth in two ways, by the removal of toxins, and by supplying your muscles with oxygen.
While lifting weights intensely, your muscles accumulate toxins and tears, which limits how long you can workout.
Since your muscles need time to repair themselves, without proper rest or intake of nutrients, you will not notice any improvements in your body.
However, by ingesting NO, you will greatly reduce the amount of time required for you muscles to repair themselves.
Consuming Nitric oxide before you start training will get your body into a peak stat of vasodilation, " pump state", earlier in the workout, therefore making every workout as anabolically efficient as possible.
In this state, NO stimulates blood vessels to expand and shuttle oxygen-rich red blood cells towards your muscles amplifying the rate at which your system is able to flush out muscle toxins.
The cleansing of toxins, allows your body to recover more rapidly, resulting in more available sets and repetitions, stimulating a better muscle growing environment.
While in this high performance state, your system is not only removing toxins from your muscles, but is also supplying them with essential nutrients.
With your blood vessels expanded, Nitric Oxide, will force your body to deliver amino acids, and other nutrients more rapidly to your muscles resulting in efficient muscle growth and recovery.
Simply stated, your muscles will be extracting toxins and absorbing nutrients at a higher level with Nitric Oxide supplement.
This supplement offers other benefits as well: * Increased strength * Quick gains in muscle and lean mass * Hasten recovery from workouts * Better muscle endurance * Effective cardiovascular function * Increased blood flow * Increased oxygen delivery to cells * Prevention of diabetes, cancer, and heart attack * Anti-aging capabilities There's a plethora of Nitric Oxide supplements in the market, but I personally recommend L-Arginine.
This supplement is the most popular within the bodybuilding community.
Lastly you should eat these foods, which are high in Nitric Oxide: Beans, Fish (Crab, Shrimp, Salmon), Soy, Spinach, and broccoli.
