Why I recommend these
Training is part of my week, and people ask what to buy. This is my short list, with the reasoning behind it.
Show up. Every day.
Hi, I'm Matt.
I train, I run MKFitness, and I get asked a lot what supplements and gear are worth looking at. Instead of answering the same message over and over, I put the list in one place.
MKFitness is a hand-sorted shortlist of products from 1st Phorm, grouped by when they fit your training: before the lift, after the lift, daily health and gear.
How I pick what makes the list
Four simple rules keep the list short and honest.
Clear labels
I favor products that show a full ingredient and nutrition panel so you know what you are buying.
Goal first
Items are grouped by purpose, so you can skip straight to what fits your routine.
Read the source
Every button goes to the manufacturer's own page, so you can read the label and details before you buy.
Official products from 1st PhormMKFitness is an independent referral site, not the official 1st Phorm store.
How the referral links work
Product buttons open the item on 1stphorm.com in a new tab and carry my referral code. All product links on this site are affiliate links. I may earn a commission if you buy through them, at no extra cost to you.
Prices and availability change, so the prices shown here are a snapshot. The price on 1stphorm.com is always the one that counts.
Supplements are not for everyone. Check with a doctor if you are pregnant, take medication, or have a health condition. Nothing on this site is medical advice.
Consistency builds strength.
Build the work ethic first.
Questions?
If you are not sure where to start, begin with the basics: a protein you like, a creatine and a daily multivitamin. Then add from there.
That is general information, not a prescription. Your goals, diet and health are your own.
