Reaching the Finish Line July 20th, 2011
The most important factors to success are what you do before and after any event. You must prepare your body with the nutrients it needs and maximize oxygen rich blood flow during the competition to be stronger and outlast your opponent(s). Nutrition after workouts and events is the other key factor in achieving victory. You must fuel the body with the proper amount of protein to prevent muscle fatigue, weakness, depletion, and to boost immune system functions to insure you are back training again the next day.

Important Factors of Post-workout Nutrition April 18th, 2011
An integral part of muscular growth and development is your nutrition after a workout. Working hard is not all it takes, you must re-fuel your body post-workout with these things:
Protein: the most important and key factor to muscular recovery, performance, and growth. The muscles in the body must be fueled with protein to re-build and recover after a workout. Intense workouts without protein can actually cause damage and decrease size of muscle. High quality isolate protein is best post-workout for faster absorption into the body.
Glutamine: an amino acid that is the most involved in the metabolic processes of the body. It promotes muscle growth, recovery, regeneration, and reduces catabolic effect(process in which the body breaks down own muscle tissue to fuel recovery)
BCAA’s: Branch Chain Amino Acids make up 35% of your muscle mass and must be present for molecular growth and development to take place. They help to carry nitrogen to the muscles and synthesize with other amino acids needed for anabolic muscle growth
These 3 factors combined with intense training lead to an elite athletic body!
