It seems that 2009 just was starting. This is the time to set new goals, put a plan in place, then execute on them! What are your goals for this year? Maybe it’s gain 5lbs of muscle, maybe it’s lose 15lbs of bodyfat, maybe it’s drop your bodyfat percentage down 5%. Whatever it is, write it down, put it somewhere you can see it and let’s work towards it! We have our goals set here, let us be a resource to help (training, nutrition or supplements) you achieve yours!

New sports nutrition products
Tren is going off the market on January 4th
The DEA is going to be taking this pro-hormone off the market on 1/4/10. We have always been very careful on who we sell this to and make sure they take them correctly and are fully educated, unfortunately, that is not the case industry wide. We only have a small handful of it left, then it will be gone for good. There are many other natural and safe ways to elevate and optimize one’s testosterone and hormone levels, let us show you the other options as well if this is something you are interested in.
L-Arginine pure bulk powder
We have always carried the capsulated L-Arginine but now have the same thing in bulk powder form. Arginine is an amino acid and helps boost nitric oxide levels, which in turn increases circulation. It has also been shown to increase the immune system and GH levels. Adding 2-5 grams to your beverage you sip on during your workout (we recommend Xtend) is a great way to boost recovery/performance. Having it before bed (Ryan mixes it with his casein) is a great way to optimize recovery/growth while sleeping.

New pre-workout protein 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!
Training tip: Uni-lateral work
One of the things that we incorporate in both our personal training clients and our Bodysculpting workouts is uni-lateral training. This is a term used to describe doing one limb at a time. Often people favor one of their legs or arms for certain activities. By working them independently, it forces your body to even things out. For example, a leg workout might include squats and leg press, but then also walking lunges or step ups. Try to incorporate at least 1 uni-lateral exercise into your workout. Contact one of our certified trainers if you want to find other ways to shake up your routine and shock your body.
Nutrition tip: Meal spacing for fat loss/muscle gainMost people have come to accept that it is better to eat small more frequent meals verses 2-3 large meals per day. There are many health benefits to doing this, namely fat loss. However, some people take this to extreme and eat too often. When eating a meal, your body responds in digestion and nutrient absorption to rebuild tissue and fuel activity. In between meals, blood sugar and insulin levels lower, which is important for fat loss especially. If one eats too frequently, the insulin levels never drop and the body never really taps into fat stores. If you are in a calorie surplus and wanting to add muscle, the same holds true. Your body responds better and will utilize nutrients to rebuild muscle tissue if it recognizes these individual meals verses constant feedings. Studies show it is best to allow 3-4 hours in between meals (except pre/post training shakes/meals). For more information or a customized meal plan/coaching, contact Ryan, a certified sports nutrition specialist to set up an appointment.
Supplement tip: Ultimate Fat loss stack
It’s no secret that many goals this time of year include losing some bodyfat. Here is the fat loss stack that we recommend (and Ryan used when he won his bodybuilding pro card)
CLA Extreme: Helps both reduce bodyfat while retaining muscle tissue
Bio Heat: Fat loss agent to boost metabolism, mild appetite suppression and bodyfat utilization
Nitro Burn PM: Before bed to utilize fatty acids while sleeping and improve rest/reduce cortisol
Bio Burn: L-Carnitine based non stimulate to help optimize fat loss during cardio.
Recipe: Banana bread
Banana bread is a great way to use up those older bananas and here is a recipe that makes it more healthy.
Ingredients: 2-3 ripe bananas, 1/2 cup MCT oil, 1 1/4 cup wheat flour, 12 packets Naturally Sweet, 1/4 cup chopped almonds, 1/2 tsp salt substitute, 1 tsp baking soda, 3 egg whites
Mix MCT oil, sweetener together, then mix in remaining ingredients. Fold in chopped almonds. Cook at 350 degrees for 50 minutes.

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!
