I have wanted to talk about this topic for, oh… about 10 years. I held off for so long because I know that “sports supplements” is territory that is a bit scary for non-professional, fitness enthusiasts like us.

Outside of the circles of collegiate and professional sports - and fitness pro’s like me - sports supplements tend to get a bad rap.

I think it’s because they have crazy names like “beta alanine”, and therefore most people think, “Ooooo, that sounds scary because I can’t pronounce it!”

The truth is, beta-Alanine is an amino acid! It’s in the foods that you eat every single day!

And guess what? That really scary one “Creatine” is too! While this one isn’t an actual amino acid, it is in any animal meat that you eat, and is naturally produced inside of your own body from other amino acids.

We know that the 20 amino acids are incredibly important because they are literally, the building blocks of your body. 10 of them must be ingested from foods because your body cannot produce them.

There are three very simple sports supplements that were pivotal in my body and health transformation over the years, and especially around the age of 40.
