New sports nutrition products
Whey Gourmet
This popular whey protein has been special ordered (which we are always happy to do) for many of our customers, so we decided to bring in the line! The main reason it is so popular is not only because of the quality, but also because of the TASTE!! Some of the flavors include: peanut butter chocolate, orangesicle, raspberry cream along with creamy vanilla and chocolate.
Fruit & Greens PhytoFoods
Most of us don’t get the amount of fruits and vegetables throughout the day that we should. This new product from NOW Foods provides the body with everything it could want! Full of antioxidants, vitamins, minerals and fiber, Fruits & Greens not only keep you healthy but also maintain proper pH levels. A tasty berry powder that you can simply mix into your beverage, shake or foods.
.
New bar: Raptor Bar
One of the most important meals of the day is your pre-workout meal. This is what fuels the fire during your training. While a shake or a whole meal is nice, sometimes you need something for on the go. This new bar is exactly that! Tastes great and most importantly, works! Not only does it fuel you through intense workouts, you don’t burp it up during it either!
Tren and other prohormones
First, we do carry Tren and other prohormones, but we do NOT push them or sell them lightly. These are strong and should be used with caution only by those who are at the appropriate level of training, age and conditioning. The government is cracking down on these substances and many have been discontinued by the manufacturer. If you are interested in these and would like unbiased information, please come in and see Ryan.
Training tip: Heavy/light
As Ryan was training for the USA, he continued to progress in strength, which was a key in keeping his muscle mass while losing bodyfat. One of the principals he used was combining a blend of heavy and light exercises. Compound exercises are those involving two limbs (such as bench press, squats, deadlifts, rows, shoulder press). When performing these lifts, shoot for a heavier weight that stimulates strength and muscle growth, which would be in the 5-8 rep range. After starting out your workout with one of these basic exercises, finish the rest with more isolation exercises (such as DB flys, walking lunges, 1 arm rows, lateral raises) in the 8-12 rep range to stimulate growth. By doing both ranges, you will not only continue to progress in strength, but also in muscle tone. For more tips or a training program, come in and see one of our certified trainers.
Nutrition tip: Fiber is your friend
This is something that we believe everyone knows but it sometimes help to be reminded. Fiber is something that you want in abundance in your diet for many reasons. It’s good for your health (especially for cholesterol and digestion) but it’s also good for your physique. By keeping your fiber content high, it slows down absorption and digestion of foods. This does two things. First, it keeps your blood sugar/insulin levels low, which is what you want to optimize fat loss. Second, by slowing digestion, you stay full longer, which allows you to stay satisfied in between meals which will be a great help in a calorie deficit diet. An easy way to do this is by adding psyllium husk powder to your foods and/or shakes. Of course, eating “brown” carbs or veggies in your meals is essential too. For more tips or a customized nutrition plan, come in and talk to Ryan. Supplement tip: Fight “Flu” season
While you know to eat healthy, wash your hands and to cover you mouth, another way to stay healthy is through proper supplementation. We recommend to stay healthy and keep your immune system in top shape the following: Multi-vitamin, vitamin C (500 mg), vitamin E (400 IU), Omega 3/6/9, and alpha lipoic acid. These are all high in anti-oxidants and ensure your body is cranking at 100%!
Recipe: Protein Pumpkin Pie
This has been a favorite each year so we thought we would repost it. This makes 2 pies
8 oz fat free cream cheese, 2 Tbsp skim milk, tub of fat free cool whip, 2 low fat graham cracker crusts, 2 cups skim milk, 1 can pumpkin, 2 pkg jello fat/sugar free vanilla instant pudding, 2 scoops protein powder (we suggest quad pro or UMP), 1/4 tsp cinnamon, 1/8 tsp ginger
Mix cream cheese & 2 Tbsp milk in large bowl w/wire whisk until smooth. Stir in whipped topping, then spread on bottom of crusts. Pour 1 cup milk into bowl, add pumpkin, pudding mix, protein powder & spices, mix well. Spread this over cream cheese layer.
Refrigerate 4 hours or until set, garnish with whipped topping, You can either share the second pie with a friend or cut recipe in half.
