It is important to remember that exercise does not build muscle, it actually tears it down. It is nutrition and rest that helps to repair the muscles, rebuild them and make them stronger after exercise.

An adequate supply of macro nutrients and micronutrients are required for survival, growth, and development, and for the maintenance of health and well-being throughout life.
