Results from IFPA Pro International

Ryan Irwin — Wed, 28 Sep 2011 21:59:24 +0000

Last weekend was the climax of 18 weeks of dieting and year round training as I hit the stage for the IFPA Pro International in Kansas City. I knew going in that this would be one of the toughest contests I have been in and it didn’t disappoint.

There were 12 of us in the lightweight men class from all over the US and Canada. I weighed in at 151.5, which was 10lbs heavier than my last contest (July ’10) but I was still one of the lightest onstage. I was very pleased with this increase in mass (mainly in legs/back) which I attribute to my powerlifting training. However, my conditioning wasn’t as razor sharp as it needs to be to place at this level. There were a couple factors that attributed to this, which I recognize and will improve for next time (color being one of them).

I am now reverse dieting, slowing bringing my nutrient intake up to allow for my metabolism to increase without gaining a bunch of bodyfat. This actually requires more discipline than the regular diet in my opinion as the contest it will affect is a year away. However, champions are made in the off season (in fact one would say there is no “off season”).

A big thank you to my amazing wife, Mandee who I could do none of this without her love and support. Also to my training partners, Cody Nour and Mike Beiter, who push me past my limits and was there through all the workouts. Cindy McGuire at Hands On Sports Massage and Dr. Tyler Molstre at True Life Chiropractic, which both helped my recovery tremendously and kept me injury free. Finally, Scivation for all their support and supplementation on my journey.

My next goal is back to powerlifting. I am again going to be competing at the Raw Challenge at the Arnold Sport Festival in March of 2012, and will be doing the USAPL meet in Freemont, NE as a warm up in December. By staying strong through my contest prep, I am looking to smash my previous personal records (PRs) this year. You can follow my training blog here.

Below are some pictures of prejudging and finals, along with my posing routine.

Whats new???

New format for our small group training

We have been holding our Bodyscultping sessions for many years now and have had countless clients utilize our program to get some amazing results! In fact, we boast about an 85% retention rate. Most of our clients use this as their exclusive training protocol. Being that it really is more like personal training than group training, we have switched the sessions into a monthly format (beginning this month). For $150, you get 4 sessions per week at either 5 or 6 AM, noon or 7 PM. As always, we strive to help you make the most of your training both in and outside of the studio by monitoring your nutrition and watching your progress. Groups are at most 10 clients per session so you don’t get lost in a crowd. If you want in, let us know!

Monday Madness is Mon, July 11th,where you save 15% off our already great low prices. A quick note about our special: we don’t gouge our customers with high price margins (as we also have personal training and nutrition coaching services as well) so we can’t do specials like buy one, get one, or 1/2 price, but our normal prices are most retailers sale prices. That being said, 15% off our prices are often like 50% off other retail prices! As always, we will be handing out samples and this is the day to stock up on whatever you need or try something new to shake up your supplement program with one of our proven stacks.

Protein prices are unfortunately on the rise. : On July 5th, many of the top supplement companies (Optimum, BSN, IDS, Cytosport) have increased their protein prices. We have done our best to keep prices as low as possible but wanted to give our customers a heads up. Currently the best bang for the buck is the Scivation whey (which you can purchase in 2, 5 or 10lb sizes). We have purchased a large amount of some of the items going up (Optimum casein, Aftershock, Cytosport to name a few) so stock up this Monday!

New sports nutrition products

Carb Slam from Primaforce:

Most know the importance of protein in their diet but carbs are essential as well. While it is easy to get them into our diet (carbs) having an efficient source to properly restore muscle glycogen post workout is critical. Carb Slam is exactly this, an unflavored waxy maize that can easily be added to your protein post workout that doesn’t effect the taste or texture. Carb Slam can also be used pre-workout for some extra fuel for your fire if your tank is low!

Green Magnitude creatine from Controlled Labs:
Creatine is one of the most tried and true supplements on the market and Betaine anhydrous is another supplement that has been researched and shown to increase muscle strength. This product contains both of them and is a great product to try if a main goal is increasing strength and/or muscle size.

**Next monthly session starts in July!!

Aquamassage
This is an incredible way to get a quick, non-invasive, therapeutic massage. What looks like a tanning bed is actually a chamber that has 40 high-pressure jets that go from your feet to your neck pulsating heated water. You don’t get wet though and are fully dressed. There is a sheath between you and the water, so you just lay there, relax and enjoy! A great pick-me-up over lunch, after workouts, or as a maintenance in between intense deep tissue work. Only $1.00 per minute it is a great way to treat yourself (or someone you know). Swing in and try it out!

Client Results

Here are some of our recent clients we would like to brag up!

Cristal: Continuing to advance, she has lost 17″ and dropped 27 1/2lbs! Bodyfat has gone down almost 8% and is working towards her second 1/2 marathon.

Chris: Has been doing one-on-one training sessions and following our nutrition programing. Since switching from leaning out and going to lean bulk mode he has gained 7lbs of muscle while keeping his bodyfat the same in 6 weeks.

Ruth: In her first month of nutrition/workout coaching she has lost a total of almost 4″ in her hips and waist and has dropped 6lbs. Most importantly she has gotten into the good habits of exercising regularly and eating right.

Molly: In her first month back at training, she has lost 4% bodyfat, lost over 8lbs and has a renewed energy.

Diane: As she prepares for her first Figure competition, in her first month of coaching she lost 4% bodyfat, 2″ in waist/hips and gained muscle in the process.

Questions and answers

New segment: Q & A!!

In this section, we will answer your questions. If you have one you would like featured here, please send an email to: ryan@nutrisportfpt.com.

Q. Do I take carbs after workouts even if it’s in the evening?

A. Absolutely. If you look at your nutrition intake, two of your largest meals should be before and after your workout (so shame-shame if you don’t eat anything in the AM before you hit the weights). Your body needs to restore glycogen and recover after an intense workout no matter what time of day it is.

Supplement research: Forskolin for fat loss

Ryan Irwin — Thu, 07 Jul 2011 17:36:59 +0000

Looking for a new way to lose fat without getting jacked up on stimulants? Then Forskolin 50 by Primaforce is a great option to help burn stubborn bodyfat. Forskolin is a natural herb that is derived from the plant, Coleus forskohli.

Forskolin has been shown to decrease body fat by stimulating the enzyme adenylate cyclase, which results in increased cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) in cells. This increased cAMP in your cells results in broad range of physiological and biochemical effects including, prevents platelet aggregation, broncho-dilation, anti-glaucoma, reduces blood pressure, and reduces inflamation.

According to the article found at Vitamin Research Products, scientists at the Penn State University College of Medicine have found that many obese people have lower than normal cAMP production in their cells. Along with that a recent small study seemed to confirm this finding. In this study six overweight women took forskolin twice daily for eight weeks. At the end of those eight weeks, participants lost an average of ten pounds, and reduced their percentage body fat by almost 8%. Based on both of these findings indicate that forskolin may be a safe, effective adjunct to losing weight and maintaining a normal body composition especially for those with impaired cAMP production.

For more information on this product or other fat loss supplements, swing into either Nutri-Sport locations and one of our nutrition specialists will be happy to help you reach your full potential!

New monthly Bodysculpting small group training program

Ryan Irwin — Tue, 28 Jun 2011 13:02:58 +0000

As hundreds of clients have experienced, we have been offering Bodysculpting workouts at Nutri-Sport for a few years now. We are extremely excited to start open this small group training option up to even more individuals!

Our program is more like small group personal training than any other type of group fitness class out there so we have set it up as such. The sessions are now divided into months (verses weeks) and you can sign up month to month. We also have various time slots, 5AM, 6AM and noon on Mon/Wed/Fri and 7 PM on Tues/Thurs. Saturday is 7AM or 8AM. You can attend 4 of these sessions based on your schedule (and it is okay to make up at a different than normal time slot).

Bodysculpting is unlike any of the other “fitness challenges” out there. It really is more like personal training rather than group fitness. As the video below shows, it is small groups (no more than 10 people) and our trainers (who have college degrees in health plus certifications) lead the workouts. The training sessions are always different, focusing on all aspects of fitness to make it fun, challenging, but most important, effective on helping you look and feel your absolute best!

We want this to be a lifestyle change so one of the areas of focus are nutrition as well. At the beginning of the program, we educate participants what, when and why they should be eating. Throughout the month, we monitor their nutrition and make sure results are being achieved.

Supplement research: GPLC

Ryan Irwin — Fri, 24 Jun 2011 21:44:27 +0000

When you train, it is blood flow that is the carrier of nutrients to the muscles for performance. This is also the case after your session and the focus switches to recovery. Optimizing blood flow is a desired outcome to enhance both aspects. A supplement that you can add to your stack that does this and more is GPLC.

GPLC is short for Glycine Propionyl-L-Carnitine (also known as GlycoCarn USP). Research published in the JISSN has shown that this oral Carnitine (an amino acid) increases the amount of Nitric Oxide production, which in turn increases blood flow to the muscles (see study here). Studies used 4.5 grams and levels peaked at 90 min. Most pre-workout formulas contain some GPLC but often not the fully effecitive dose. Thus supplmenting with additional GPLC is effective by combing with your pre workout formula pre workout. Be warned that it is a very tart taste and at best your pre workout will cover the flavor.

In addition to helping optimize your training, the GPLC increases the amount of fatty acids that can be transported and burned during exercise, thereby increasing fat utilization and bodyfat loss.

GPLC is also a great anti-oxidant so the benefits of post workout recovery is further enhanced with this factor. If you are looking to take your workouts up a level and want your pre-workout to reach it’s full potential, add some GPLC before your next training session.

Nutri-Sport research: HIIT cardio and Beta Alanine supplementation

Ryan Irwin — Thu, 17 Mar 2011 11:26:01 +0000

In the never ending battle to lose body fat and increase muscle, studies are constantly being conducted to see what the most efficient ways to exercise are. Gone are the days where people had to spend hours on a treadmill to melt away the fat. One method of exercise growing in popularity is High Intensity Interval Training, or HIIT.

HIIT appeals to many people because it not only breaks the monotony of slow-paced cardio, but also because it takes a lot less time than steady-state cardio. The idea is to break your cardio session up into intervals of low intensity and high intensity exercise. This will continuously spike and lower your heart rate, tapping into different energy and fat-burning pathways. The benefits of HIIT training were seen in a study published in the Journal of Strength and Conditioning Research that was originally designed to test the effects of Beta-Alanine on endurance training. The study showed that no matter which group the test subjects were in (Beta-alanine, placebo, or controlled), every test subject gained lean mass and lost fat mass as a result of the interval training used in the study. Beta Alanine has been show to increase work capacity by reducing blood-lactate accumulation (that muscle burn we all know well) that in the long-run will increase training volume and greater gain. The study also suggested that HIIT may be an effective and time-efficient training method for increasing oxygen uptake. See the abstract here.

HIIT is a form of training that we include in many of our clients’ personal programs. If you are looking for a new form of training, or want to make the most of your valuable gym time, contact us for training and program details today!

Beta Alanine available at Nutri-Sport in powder or capsules

Bodysculpting results, what it’s all about!

Ryan Irwin — Thu, 09 Dec 2010 22:20:16 +0000

Any chance we get to brag up our clients we absolutely do!

We have mentioned Dee before but she has continued to progress. Since beginning our Bodysculpting program in March she has lost 78 pounds and reduced her bodyfat from 32.7% to 13.8%. Dee has also lost 27.75 inches around her hips and waist, reduced her thighs by 11 inches total.

In addition to making physical changes, her diet is improved considerably and we are working with her to continue to increase her metabolism and monitoring her intake with food logs.

Dee works out like a machine and is full of energy! We’ll stop rambling and let the pictures speak for themselves. If you or someone you know is interested in making positive life changes, please send them our way! Bodysculpting starts every 9 weeks.

Bodysculpting training program starts in 2 weeks!

Ryan Irwin — Mon, 27 Sep 2010 11:26:23 +0000

We have been running a unique program at the Nutri-Sport training facility for a few years now. It’s called Bodysculpting and is a unique program to the Des Moines metro.

What sets this apart really is that it is more like personal training than group fitness. Our studio is fully equipped but we limit our workouts to no more than 12 people at a time. This allows for effective use of space, plus the ability to provide more supervision, motivation and instruction from our certified trainers to the participants.

Other aspects that make this a unique training program is the inclusion of training techniques that you can learn to do on your own and incorporate this into your lifestyle. After all, we want this to be more than just a “transformation challenge” but rather a lifestyle change for good. Additionally, we monitor the nutrition of our participants and make corrections/recommendations to ensure they are getting results.

Workouts are always different, plus they are intense and fun! Typically, the first 40-45 minutes are spent doing weight training with the last 20-15 seconds focused on raising your metabolism and getting the heart rate going for fat loss and conditioning. Here is a video that gives some additional information on the program:

We track progress and each individual works to their own level of fitness and strength. Participants are successful at achieving their goals whether bodyfat loss, get healthy, strength gain, muscle gain or a combination of these.

For more information on the program or get enrolled in our next session starting in less than 2 weeks, check out our training information page here, swing in to Nutri-Sport, or call us at 515-331-2141 or shoot an email to: ryan@nutrisportfpt.com.

Bodysculpting results and testimonial

Ryan Irwin — Fri, 11 Jun 2010 19:21:42 +0000

They say that pictures say a thousand words, well, one of our recent participants not only has some impressive pictures show her results from the 9-week Bodysculpting program, but also tells a great story!

Deanna just finished up her first 9 week Bodysculpting session at our Mon/Wed/Fri/Sat 6 AM time. She did amazingly and nailed it on all fronts, attendance, nutrition and workouts. In 9 weeks, Deanna lost over 15 inches around her waist/hips and lost over 7 inches in her arms/thighs. Her bodyfat went down 9.7% and she lost over 33 pounds according to the scale!

Below are the before and after pictures, but read her story in her own words below that.

As a mother of 2 children (5 &3 yrs old) I had constantly struggled with my weight and appearance for years. When I joined Nutri-Sport’s 9 week Bodysculpting challenge I was at a point of desperation. Due to our family’s financial situation I knew I could only afford to take this class once throughout the year and from the get go I decided to make the most of my time there. I viewed this as an opportunity to invest in myself and my health.

At the start of the program I felt a bit out of place. Most of the people in my class had better conditioning and overall they were in better shape than I was. As I disciplined myself, the constant support and drive of the trainers within the program helped me realize just how much I could accomplish. As my body got better and the results became more apparent I pushed myself harder than I have ever done before, The staff helped answer any and all questions I could possibly think of asking (and trust me they were a lot!). Anything from what to eat, when to eat it, what supplements would help me achieve my goals faster, and how to maintain an overall sense of balance within the program. Maintaining discipline in my eating habits was crucial to my results. The trainers also helped me understand how to continue getting results even though I no longer was able to continue the challenge with them.

I won’t lie and say that it was an easy adjustment to make for myself. Most, if not all of my habits changed as I accepted the challenge. Anywhere from my eating habits, my discipline as a person, and even my sleeping habits. The trainers not only work with you in accomplishing your goals, but they also believe in you which makes them even more amicable and trustworthy. You do feel challenged by the workouts, you certainly feel challenged by the trainers (whose constant push is necessary, at least on my case), you also feel challenged by the people within your class in a way that it is a healthy competition to give your best every time you are there. But most importantly it is a challenge to yourself. To know that the more you apply yourself, and the more you discipline yourself the better results you get. To challenge yourself to change your habits and put yourself to the test and not only know but also see the results of your work and their guidance it is the most rewarding experience I can honestly say I have ever had!

For more information on our programs, both for workouts, nutrition and supplementation, swing in and speak with one of our consultants today! Next Bodysculpting program starts up soon!

Workout/nutrition tips

New sports nutrition products

Lipo 6 Hers:

The Lipo-6 line has been extremely popular, with the release of the new Black line and now the Hers formula, obviously specifically geared towards females. It is a liquid cap for quick absorption, thermogenic, increases metabolism/energy and helps use fat for energy. We have had great reviews from customers who have tried it.

Brain Formula:
This unique blend of key herbs and vitamins help combat the affects of age-related cognitive decline and help promote circulation and mental clarity for an elevated mood, alertness, energy, improved memory and concentration.

B-Complex Formula
B vitamins are coenzymes involved in energy production. They can also be helpful in relieving symptoms of depression and anxiety. This is especially important for those who have a lot of stress and fatigue. In addition to B-Complex vitamins, this formula has minerals and herbs to further enhance the effects.

2:1 Bars
This new protein bar has to be one of the best we’ve seen! Not only does it taste great, but it has 2 parts protein to every carb. That equals out to 32 grms of protein with only 15 grms of carbs, (only 3 of which are sugar!) Being low in fat at 4.5 grams, it doesn’t rely on that to make up the difference. Coming in oatmeal or almond caramel crunch.

Training tip: Stretch after, not before
When you are getting ready to exercise, you want to get the body ready for the stress, which means getting the blood into the muscles and getting the cardiovascular system ready. This is not the time to stretch, as it can actually reduce muscle tension, which can decrease performance or worse yet, increase risk of injury. Contact one of our certified trainers to help you come back quicker from an injury and not lose progress.

Nutrition tip: Meal spacing
Most people now understand that the body needs frequent meals for continuous energy and to keep the metabolism ramped up. However, you can eat too often as well, plus the types of foods you eat at these meals can make a significant impact. Include plenty of fiber throughout the day and control the insulin/blood sugar spikes. For more information or a customized meal plan/coaching, contact Ryan, a certified sports nutrition specialist to set up an appointment.

Supplement tip: Endurance athletes
As we get into race season deeper, those who do endurance activities should pay attention to their supplements too. While good old chocolate milk is bare minimum, there are MUCH better ways to optimize recovery and performance. A good recovery shake with a 1:4 ratio of protein to carbs (2 scoops Xtend to 1 scoop Cytomax is perfect). Also, electrolytes before/after a run to ensure optimal rehydration. Cordygen5 improves ATP regeneration and VO2 max. Of course a meal with the proper amount of carbs and water before the event is crucial too (with proper digestion time). Quick delivery energy during longer events (45 min+) will keep you fueled throughout (gels, beans or gummys).

Recipe: Tortilla chocolate roll ups
Here is a tasty recipe for breakfast or anytime you want something a little sweet.

Take a scoop of protein (we like chocolate) and mix in about 1 to 1/2 Tbsp of peanut butter. Add just enough water to make into a paste. Spread onto a carb sense whole wheat tortilla (12 grams carbs, 8 grams of which are fiber). Roll the tortilla up and you’re set to go!

Bodysculpting sessions start every 9 weeks. Workouts are on M/W/F/S or on T/R/S. Class size is small so they fill fast. If you want to get in on the action, stop by soon to get your spot. Cost is $299 on the 4 days per week slots, times are 5 or 6 AM and noon. The 3 days a week is offered at noon on Tues/Thurs and 9AM on Sat and are $225. Besides killer workouts, good nutritional habits are reinforced with a focus on education and accountability. See what makes this different than anything else around!
**Next session (M/W/F/S) starts Monday, June 7th**

One-on-one personal training available as well!
Our staff of trainers are not only just certified, but also have college degrees in the field. Our many clients range from weight loss, weight gain, strength/balance, sport specific training among others. If you want to get out of a rut and train in a private setting, we can set up a program that works for your goals, schedule and budget. Times available are 5AM thru 7PM. Contact Daira, Tasha, David or Ryan to set up a free initial session/consultation.

In-home training!!
Perhaps you have a home gym and you want to get better (or some) use out of it, this is for you!! We will come to you and train you on your equipment (plus bring a little of ours) to make sure you get a killer workout at home. We can also help you design your home program so that you see results and stick with it.
