Let's face it, sometimes shopping for supplements can be overwhelming! Especially with over 4,000 different choices to browse through on Brawn. Finding a starting point can be difficult as a beginner or even as a seasoned veteran. Let me see if I can be of some assistance and guide you to some great options.If you are just getting into building a better body then there are two supplements that I recommend starting with, a whey protein and a pre workout powder. Of course this is a bit simplified as your body goals will directly dictate how you will run your diet, nutrition, supplements, training and more but simplicity is what we are here for today!So why should you start with a protein and a pre workout? I have found over the years that these two products make a great starting supplement base to build upon and you can add more supplements as needed or less as you go. Beginning this way also gives you a great opportunity to learn how your body responds to the pre workout and the protein of your choice. A good protein supplement can do a lot to further your training. It can help you get more protein in your diet but it is also a great way replace those late night cravings for junk meals or to add a 4th or 5th meal to your day. Again this is depending upon your goals. A good pre workout should be a means to provide you with more focus, energy, pumps, and that extra drive to get you off the couch and into your workout. :DSo without further ado, below are three great top rated options for protein and pre workout combos.
