All posts for the month June, 2012

We have all been there!
You have a goal, but life has a way to catch up to you…
Stress, emotions, schedules and sometimes someone that is sabotaging your efforts ….
Yes there are only 24 hours in a day… So what are we doing?
I am realizing that working 12 hours does not leave me with a lot of time to spend on workouts or really anything else….
Fatigue and exhaustion taking over!!!
Weekends are not enough to make up to go to point B!
I have to make a decision to either give up on my goal ( which is a no..no) or to suck it up, live with less sleep and time, but achieving that goal!!!
If mothers with children can survive with only 3 hours of sleep, so can I!!!
Proving to everyone that is trying to sabotage your efforts that you are stronger than they are expecting!!!
You are beyond them, beyond their weakness!
They fail because of their flaws and they are trying to make you fail just so they can feel better about themselves 😉
Ignore and move on!
There are bigger and better things coming your way!
Pushing yourself beyond your limit will make you feel impowered and improve how you see yourself!

I always get asked what kind of supplements I am using when I get ready!
If I am planning to put on a little more muscle before leaning out ( so there is something left in the end), I use the following combination …
Creatine ( the best one for me with the most dramatic changes in power, endurance, strength is mono hydrate)!
Everybody is different, so you have to find your own creatine!
Ask for samples before you purchase, but remember it takes a few days to see the difference….
A building supplement like tribulus!
I prevere a good combination that leaves your muscle in the right environment for building!
Personally I am a fan of Universal products!
I will switch between Animal M Stak or Animal Stak 2 and Animal Pump!
They all have a little different combination of muscle building ingredient , and it is always a good idea to cycle your supplements!
Now remember these supplements are all to be purchased over the counter at your favorite nutrition store.
I do not like a lot of artificial flavors when it comes to pre workout drinks like NO xplode or others….
But I will suck it up over a short period of time…
My BCAA’s ( Amino Acids) are in pill form, and yes …a Universal product 🙂
L-Glutamine can protect your muscle while training or dieting down!
It also helps with inflammation and the repair of all tissue!!!
My multivitamin choice is always (yes) Animal Pak!
It’s a powerful combination of vitamines, antioxidants, and other ingredients to help combat stress while training in the higher level!
Calcium, Magnesium Vitamin D and Zinc are a must while in the training phase!
They do much more than just feed your bones!!!
They are also responsible for muscle contraction and are a part of your minerals and electrolytes!
NO supplement (mine is NOx3 from Universal…)
Will help your growth by pushing more blood and oxygen into your muscle!
This will help deliver nutrients to the muscle fiber!
I am blessed with an amazing digestion and do not have to ad digestive enzymes or fiber to my daily routine, but of you are not as lucky as I am, add some digestive enzymes ( Twinlab has a good product) and some fiber!
Your essential fatty acid are super beneficial for you, so don’t forget them!
Once I start cutting, I will slow down on the creatine and add a fat burner
Nothing really burns fat than your combination of exercise and diet!!!
Fat burners may elevate your heart rate a little to help you burn a few more calories, but mostly they help your energy level while dieting down!!!
Use one does not harm you!
If you are taking medication check with your physician before starting any supplementation!!!
Just remember if you are not eating healthy or clean, no supplement will make a difference in your progress!
