New sports nutrition products and specials

1st Phorm:

We are extremely picky about what brands we carry and being an independent store verses a franchise, we can choose to bring in whatever we want. We are pleased to announce our newest brand, 1st Phorm! A Midwest based company, their products are what we like to term as the “Cadillac” of supplements. Very high quality and first class. We will have a rep from 1st Phorm here on Monday Madness so you can try out and ask questions on the products!

VPX Syngex whey protein

We are always looking for the best bang for the buck in regards to protein. Recently, we have brought in VPX’s Syngex as our middle of the line protein for this category. VPX is a highly regarded company that does a lot of research. Their protein is high quality and most importantly, tastes great!

Nutri-Sport Nutrition Tip: A PHAT tip on fats

Ryan Irwin — Thu, 02 Feb 2012 23:14:50 +0000

Most individuals are afraid of fats in their diet and are really missing out. Fats are not only needed but do many different beneficial things.

As Ryan Irwin explains in the video below, fats can help with reducing hunger, keeps blood sugar stable, improve brain function and inflammation. When we do nutrition coaching/meal planning, ensuring the right fats are included at the right times. This is especially important for precontest diets and athletic performance.

Add fats into your meals (except for post workout recovery shakes for fast absorption) and make sure you get the essential fatty acids (like omega 3) in your day.

For these and other great carbohydrate and other supplement options, come visit either Nutri-Sport location to help get you by in a pinch next time!

Nutri-Sport Training Tip: Pin press for a bigger bench press

Ryan Irwin — Tue, 31 Jan 2012 11:48:41 +0000

When performing the bench press, the most common spot that people get stuck at is right off their chest. This is also known as the sticking point.

In the video below, Mike Beiter demonstrates the pin press, a great exercise that helps people get through this spot by forcing one to come to a complete stop right off the chest, then generate power right out of the hole.

Key points on this is to maintain your normal form by keeping your arch and position throughout the exercise. Make sure the bar comes to a complete stop and rests on the pins/rack prior to pressing (no bouncing). Try this after your normal full range bench press as an accessory exercise on your next training session.

Nutri-Sport Nutrition Tip: Carbs are your friend

Ryan Irwin — Thu, 26 Jan 2012 14:46:32 +0000

Carbohydrates have a bad reputation according to most people these days. While they won’t make your dog bite you, often people totally miss the boat and don’t have carbs when they are absolutely crucial.

As Ryan Irwin explains in the video below, carbohydrates after workouts are critical for glycogen replenishment (which refuels you for your next training session). This not only helps with performance, but also enhances recovery. In addition to carbs, a high-quality protein should be used post workout as well, which is better utilized when combined with a carb.

If one is concerned about fat loss, then cutting down carbs at other times of the day is appropriate, but as is shown when we work with our many clients in meal planning/nutrition coaching, this varies greatly per the individual.

Make sure after your next workout, get a fast absorbing high quality carbohydrate (we recommend 1st Phorm Ignition or Primaforce Carb Slam) and a good protein source (like whey).

For these and other great carbohydrate and other supplement options, come visit either Nutri-Sport location to help get you by in a pinch next time!

Nutri-Sport Training Tip: Proper shoulder warm-up

Ryan Irwin — Tue, 24 Jan 2012 14:53:33 +0000

One of the most fragile joint structures and common injuries/issues we hear about is the shoulders. Not only is this joint fragile, it is often an overused one and needs to be taken care of so that long term limitations don’t occur.

Proper warm up is one of the best ways to not only prevent injury, but it also optimizes performance and promotes healing. In this video, Nutri-Sport Trainer Mike Beiter demonstrates a proper warm up sequence for the shoulders.

Complete this warm up sequence before any upper body exercise and if you are rehabbing a shoulder injury, this can be done daily.

Nutri-Sport Nutrition Tip: Talking about the bar

Ryan Irwin — Thu, 19 Jan 2012 23:02:10 +0000

Protein bars are a common thing these days. With they busyness of society and everyone’s schedule, often times people go to these meal replacements as a quick option for a nutritious meal.

As Ryan details in the video below however, not all “protein” bars are what they’re made out to be and all that good of an option.

For these and other great meal replacement options, come visit either Nutri-Sport location to help get you by in a pinch next time!

Nutri-Sport Training Tip: DB bench press

Ryan Irwin — Tue, 17 Jan 2012 12:39:03 +0000

Two of the things that people focus on in the gym are increasing their bench press and having a sculpted chest. Well my friends, this exercise variation accomplishes both.

In this video, Mike Beiter demonstrates a variation of the flat DB bench press. This variation puts more emphasis on the chest and shoulder stability compared to the traditional version. Not only will this help carry over to more strength in the bench press and other upper body exercises, but it will increase hypertrophy (muscle growth) in the chest.

Try this variation on your next chest or upper body training day.

Nutri-Sport Training tip: dynamic deficit deadlifts

Ryan Irwin — Sun, 08 Jan 2012 02:13:20 +0000

When looking to improve a lift, we always break the lift down into segments and focus on improving the weakest part of the lift for the given lifter. In this case we are looking at the deadlift. If someone has trouble getting the bar off the floor when they are doing top end pulls, then the deficit deadlift is a great variation as it improves this range of motion.

In this video, Ryan Irwin demonstrates not only the deficit deadlift, but also some additions to make it even more effective in exploding off the floor.

Try this variation on your next deadlift session.

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. Should I stay away from carbs if I’m trying to lose bodyfat?

A. Carbohydrates are important and your body’s preferred source of fuel. They also can greatly impact muscle growth but also impact blood sugar and fat storage. Key times to have carbs are around your training time. Get plenty of veggies and try to make sure your carbs are a good source of fiber (brown carbs).
