Hey guys! Chris here your friendly neighbourhood membership consultant!

For those of you who don't know I'm also a Strength & Conditioning Coach, currently completing my Masters in Strength & Conditioning. Supplements come up ALL the time as an easy way to fill in nutritional gaps within our diets. Supplements are designed to save us time and ensure we're getting enough good stuff on the day-to-day.

Most will debate as to whether we need supplements and that a well balanced and complete diet will negate the need. This is fundamentally true! But everyone is slightly different and especially if you workout often or play sport or are pregnant or have a current/previous injury - your nutritional needs will differ. And often it is easier to take a supplement than have to consume copious amounts of food to fill the gaps.

Unfortunately for all the good supplements can produce there is unfortunately a large amount of poor quality supplements on the market. Marketing and greed can lead to companies making some pretty adventurous claims with what their products can do.

Imagine spending $100's and getting nothing in return - this would suck right?

So to help you make the right decision - here is a fantastic website I recommend all my clients and athletes to refer to first. Unbiased reviews on supplements - along with all the current research on the ingredients.

Yohimbine? Whey? ZMA? Caffeine? Fat burners?

You'll find everything you need and more!

Hope it helps,
Chris
