Muscle Community Reveals How To Spot Weight Lifting Supplements Scam

Online, October 25, 2011 (Newswire.com) - Muscle building community The Weight Gain Network has just released a very revealing report that helps people tell the legitimate weight lifting supplements apart from the scams.

The report lists a number of key points that customers should Ã'tick offÃ" before they go ahead and purchase a muscle building supplement.

The key points that customers have been encouraged to check are the companyÕs background, user testimonials, research studies cited, and the validity of claims made.

It is widely known that many muscle building supplements do not achieve the results that had been claimed in the advertising. Whilst not all of these supplements are scams, it is clear that the end customer is not always getting value for money.

Ã'If the truth is told, many companies put more money into their marketing budget than they do their research and development budget because they know hype sells. Once youÕve bought the product, theyÕve accomplished their missionÃ" the report stated.

The check-list provided in the report is likely to be a very valuable resource that customers can refer to time and time again before they go ahead and purchase any muscle building supplements.

The Ã'validity of claimsÃ" point was highlighted as one of the most important items in the checklist.

Ã'Does the company promise that youÕll gain 20 pounds in a month by using their product? If so, that immediately should throw up some red flags in your mind. The best products on the market often have no claims whatsoever about the rate of weight gain youÕll experience as the products simply are aimed at influencing one of the factors that goes into the process of weight gainÃ".

The report also provides an interesting section on the best way to use supplements once they have been purchased. The importance of sticking to the recommended guidelines and keeping up the intake for a regular period of time were cited as 2 of the key points to abide by.

Readers are likely to find this report very shocking, yet many people will be able to relate to having spent large sums of money on weight lifting supplements that looked very exciting on paper, but in reality did not do much good.

It looks like The Weight Gain Network is releasing these reports on the muscle building industry on a regular basis now, which is only a good thing for the fitness community.
