In this episode of Straight Facts, Jerry Brainum breaks down the best bodybuilding supplements proven by scientific studies.

The bodybuilding and sports supplement industry has boomed over the last few decades.

Much like other illegal designer drugs such as ecstasy, cocaine, and heroine – you simply don’t know exactly what you are getting in black market steroid products.

In our latest episode of Straight Facts, Jerry Brainum breaks down the very serious dangers of blasting and cruising – and warns that bodybuilders avoid it entirely.

In the effort to be the best in the world, individuals will search high and low for the best way to get an edge over the competition.

It’s generally known that a person’s diet and nutrition are equally, if not more, important than workouts for meeting your physique and fitness goals.

Does the timing of when you consume certain nutrients and supplements vastly affect the results of our workout? In our latest episode of Straight Facts, Jerry Brainum separates fact from fiction with a complete breakdown of nutrient timing before and after your workout.
