The Benefits of Exercise: Reduce Chance of Type II Diabetes
January 13, 2010 · 1 Comment
Diabetes has been getting more and more attention in the newspapers and on TV over the past two years. People are becoming more and more aware that this illness is caused by lack of attention to ones diet. However I don’t think that people realise that while it is manageable, it is definitely no walk in the park. Type II Diabetes is caused by the pancreas not producing enough insulin. This is usually caused by too much consumption of sweet foods which produce the highest insulin response and eventually can effect your pancreases ability to produce insulin. Getting Type II Diabetes... [Read the full story]

Fitness Secrets: The Truth
September 17, 2009 · 3 Comments
Ok, here it is guys. What I’m about to tell you is only known by top Personal Trainers and Athletes. There are people who will be pulling their hair out over me telling you this. First though, before I tell you the secret, I’ll tell you what the secret ISN’T. Supplements: Supplements are usually looked at as magic formula’s that will help you reach you goals in a hurry. Fat burners, weight gainers, protein powders, nitric oxide etc etc the list goes on. What we tend to overlook is the word itself… ’supplement’. sup⋅ple⋅ment Spelled Pronunciation [n. suhp-luh-muhnt; v. suhp-luh-ment] –noun 1. something... [Read the full story]

Oil Pulling
January 12, 2010 · Leave a Comment
Last year I did some experimenting with drinking Gatorade during and after my workouts. Studies have shown that consuming simple carbohydrates around your workout increases your recovery rate. After 2 months of experimenting with this I noticed absolutely no difference. All I did notice was that I had some tooth decay starting along my lower incisors. I’ve always had quite healthy teeth with no cavities or any other issues. I put this new problem down to the sugary Gatorade that I had been drinking followed by protein shakes over the past two months. So I booked in with the dentist, but I... [Read the full story]

Product Of The Month JAN’10 – Animal Flex
January 11, 2010 · Leave a Comment
If you are like me and get cracking or sore joints then taking products like fish oil, glucosamine and chondroitin. I’ve found that glucosamine and chondroitin by themselves are not powerful enough to give my joints relief. I’ve tried many supplement products out there and by far Animal Flex is the best product. If you find it expensive, simply take a normal glucosamine/chondroitin mix on your off days and Animal Flex on your training days. Buy it here.
