So when it comes time to hit the road, how is it that we stay on track with training? Or do we? One important thing that I have learned is that you have to adapt – not only as being now a mother of 3 but also as one who travels frequently. Being in Chicago this past weekend at Wizard Wo...

Everyone, the time has come to make some things happen. With so many ups and downs in life lately (let’s face it, we all are human), there comes a time when you have to take matters into your own hands and stop waiting for things to happen. Being more hectic than ever before in life, I h...

What a whirlwind these past six weeks have been. Trying to get back on track with my training has been hard work. The sleep deprivation is getting to me a bit, however for the best little reason in the whole world! Thanks to the help of HMB, I am beginning to feel more like myself again. ...

It’s a boy! Thanks to all of you who congratulated me on the birth of our third child. My husband is just as glad as I am to add a little dude to the HaasHold of girls we already have. Now it’s time to get down to business. Nearly three weeks to date of his birth, I set ...

For some of you, this may be to your first or final contest, competition or training session for the season. But to my family and me, it’s about time for the birth of our third miracle. One thing is for certain, if this baby does not come out loving cycling then all these hundreds (possi...

I’d first and foremost like to thank all of you HMB fans out there for the continued support of shopping with us at NutritionMarket.com. We have seen a large increase in volume of HMB sales and thankful that you’ve become loyal customers. And for those of you who happen to be in th...

“I just don’t feel the energy.” “Can I be straining too much?” “Maybe I’ll just lay off until next week.” Sound familiar to the general public about finding the perfect “excuse” not to get your training in? Or in my case all too of...

Being an active mother certainly has its trying times. Whether it’s just finding the time to get my mileage in for the week (on the bike or on trails), simply trying to get a good night’s sleep, or making certain that I get my balanced nutritional needs in, seems to be a job in itse...

When it comes to endurance sports, one thing is for certain…never underestimate the importance of mental strength. Getting ready to compete in my next race, the inaugural Dallas Stadium Half Marathon, I have had to dig deep these last few weeks of my workout to really stay at the top of ...

Whether you are looking to attend the top event of all bodybuilding, fitness, MMA, and the world of health, nutrition and supplements or just needing to have a great weekend out, The Arnold Classic will have it all the first weekend in March. Sadly, I will not be able to attend this year due to...

Wow, been real busy this past week. First off, I can’t wait for all of you to check out the new look of JustJackieHaas.com! There are more things soon to come to the website like nutrition, fitness, and shop stuff. It was definitely time to do some “spring cleaning” on the w...

Being able to maximize your time and availability to train is a must in our everyday lives as they become more hectic and busy. Incorporating cross training in your weekly schedule not only gives you options so you are not “stuck in a rut” with your training but it will maximize you...

So, it’s time to put it all into perspective, not only what you have accomplished over this past year but what you have accomplished this past decade. It’s time to really gut check yourself and see what goals and aspirations you have accomplished over these past ten years and what y...

Just because it’s cold outside, doesn’t mean that you have to put your health and fitness goals on the back burner. Even though you may feel like you just want to sit inside and sip hot cocoa (it better be fat free). More often than not, too many people around this time of year are...

Seeing that my inaugural triathlon season has come to a close, I have decided on a training path that concentrates on my endurance solely until the first of the year. Which after all, over the holiday seasons that are rapidly approaching, I could use those extra miles because I must admit my we...

First things first – I hope everyone is staying healthy with the current flu strain going around. After all, one of the places that germs love the most is the gym. With all that equipment, sweat, and personal contact you want to be sure that you are protected this flu season. I...

As my inaugural triathlon season came to a close this morning, I could not be anymore happy with the decision I made a couple of months ago to just go out there and DO IT! What a fantastic tri it was this morning. It was a brisk 45 degrees at 7am this morning as I got out of the pool and into ...

Doesn’t life ever slow down? As I sit in the airport yet again for another weekend of travel, I wish that life could go a step slower. Olympia in Las Vegas came much quicker than anticipated and went by fast. Bryce Holmes, John Conner and I were at the two day expo event on behalf of T...

Since so much has been going on over these last couple of months – from my first triathlon experiences to expos and events to getting prepared for even busier months to come…I have to say that HMB has been “my savior”! First things first, my training has intensif...

Some may have called me crazy, others said “you go girl” but overall, I DID IT! My first ever triathlon event was done mostly out of the pure faith I put in the slight training that I had and a great friend that I would have not done this without. How to express my knowing ...

If I could sum up my experience with HMB, that would be it…train harder to be better! I have cycled more “rpm’s”, I have ran faster times, I have felt stronger and had a cardiovascular advantage day in and day out. And this is thanks for my regimen of 2 grams o...

So, the choices seem to be endless with life. Where will it take you and what is it that you are supposed to do with what you are given. This seems to be the cross roads that I am now for lack there of a better word; or shall I say phrase. I’ve been working on my “what&rsqu...

Inside the squared circle is somewhere that I really did not imagine myself in again, in all honesty. However, one of the very first things that I learned is never say never in the sport of professional wrestling. Needless to say, my never came this past Wrestlemania 25 in Houston, TX! ...

There’s nothing better than feeling like you have accomplished a hard workout. In my case, every day feels like a harder workout than the last… especially over this past month. I have really come to a point in my training when I have felt my body change. Largely in part to the fa...

What more can I say than a huge THANK YOU on behalf of the entire crew of Team HMB! Thanks to all that stopped by our booth at The Arnold Classic this past weekend – that is if you could get through the sea of people. Myself, Bryce Holmes, Eric Todd and Justin Blake were on hand over the...

It’s hard to believe that it’s that time again...just one year ago HMB was just a superior recovery product that I really got interested in. Although, having a baby in my belly – I was not able to partake in the product at that current time. How one year’s time has chan...

With the Planet Muscle Magazine photo shoot so rapidly approaching, on top of all the festivities and planning for the Grand Opening of Custom Muscle Retail location in Frisco, TX…I have had more than my hands full within the past few weeks! Busy, busy, busy but it’s been great. I...

Now it is time to get down to business!! With the New Year rapidly approaching and new goals to be set in place, now is the time more than ever to get ready for the breakout of my training. I am so happy to say that I have “the gift that keeps on giving”... HMB! After month...

As many of you anticipate the upcoming Holiday season and the beginning of a brand New Year, I have already had the joy of starting “a new” – getting my legs (and body) off and running again! I am happy to report that after nearly a month of steady running (post baby) ...

There’s nothing that I enjoy more than the true “runner’s high” – just being so refreshed and renewed that I have done something great for myself…inside AND out! And here I am – ready, set, GO! At one month post birth – it’s time to get do...

Hey there everyone – let me start off by officially introducing myself and welcoming you to my “HMB Blog Log”… Jackie Haas here, reporting in! There are so many reasons why I am anticipating, more than ever, my involvement with HMB. However, before I dig into t...
