ABB Speed Stack Pumped NO
Recently I have been using ABB Speed Stack Pumped NO and recommend it to everyone! I have tried several pre workout shakes from NO shakes to energy drinks and hands down prefer ABB over anything else. It gives me great energy and a pump but feels way easier on my body. Its does not make me jittery and bloated like I felt from other supplements. I get lasting energy from the start of each session to the end with great focus. ABB offers a great range of supplements ranging from energy to protein and I love them all. Individually packaged shakes can’t be beat, always accessible and easier to plan lifting when you don’t have to run home to a big tub of supplements.

NASA Powerlifting meet
Time has taken its toll on my nerves, six months with out a competition and I feel like a beginner again. A sleepless night and complete loss of appetite was actually a good feeling to have again.

Been having trouble in recent training with my squat suit, with my legs getting bigger it is pulling tighter and I have had trouble getting good depth out of each squat. I figured with more weight it would help push me down and it would be fine to compete in. I was wrong, as I look my first lift at 630lbs I tried to sink down an extra few inches and lost the lift. My hips just lost control and the spotters had to catch the weight. It was a great thing they were there; I would have been seriously injured. After such a big miss I decided to just use an old loose suit and figured less weight is better than no weight or a possible injury. It was my first dropped squat and I worried about it quite a bit for the next lift. Just had to clear my mind and knock out one good lift. Second attempt at 630lbs went as smoothly as I could have asked for, finally a number to put on the board. For my last attempt I wanted a good lift and was unsure what I had left I just went for 650lbs. Once again an easy walkout and squat with plenty left over.

Recently bench had been going a little better; I have probably only trained it three times in the last month and a half but still made progress. Last bench workout in the gym I hit 405lbs with a little left over so I was shooting for 426lbs. once I started warming up, I thought it was going to be a rough chest day and everything would feel heavy. Crossed my fingers and opened with 360lbs, surprisingly it felt easier than any warm up. Second attempt I went for 402lbs and it felt pretty rough, but still a good lift. For the last one I decided to go for it and attempt 426lbs, sadly I was unable to complete the lift. Even with the missed lift I was happy just to break 400lbs without a bench shirt.

At this point my body was not happy with the amount of stress it was going through, it let me know with a series of uncontrollable cramps from my hamstrings to my abs. Not a great way to start deadlift warm-ups. Went for my first lift at 670lbs and lifted it pretty easy but once I hit the top of the pull instant cramps. I was not paying attention to my water intake and got a little dehydrated. I quickly drank 3 bottles of water and went for my second attempt at 726lbs. Once again a easy lift but the cramps were persistent. For my last lift I drank as much as I could but being heavier it was a slower pull and I ended up cramping part way threw. 755lbs felt light and easy but next time I will watch my hydration a lot more. Over all I hit a total of 1780lbs, not quite what I was hoping for but was very pleased considering I didn’t use a bench shirt and used a squat suit that was pretty loose.

Without encouragement from family and friends I know there is no way I could have come back this strong and motivated. HMB plays a huge part of my training and recovery and I can’t express how much I appreciate everything MTI does for me, from the start of my sponsorship to just coming out of the hospital they have been behind me 100%.

Training wise, I’ve been pounding out the miles getting ready for the inaugural Cowboy’s Stadium Half-Marathon coming up in April.  Even if they fell short of the Super Bowl this year, the race is going to be real exciting.  Now I’m off to get a new pair of kicks since I’ve been trail running so much!  Til next time, be sure HMB is the one supplement that you are never caught without in your gym bag!

Following the below cross training schedule for my weekly routine has made my cardiovascular endurance and strength really increase.  By concentrating on new weekly goals, you too can see your body sore to new heights.  (Along with taking your recommended allowance of HMB of course!) 

The week consists of six workouts, 3 runs and 3 cycle classes.
Runs:
     1 - CT – cross training
          Approx. 7 to 8 miles and build a mile per every two weeks
     2 – Pace runs or Interval
          Most intense run of the week with elevated heart rate levels
          Half to ¾ of the distance of your CT run
     3 - EZ – easy paced run
          Let this be your “recovery” day to let your muscles just flush out
          2 to 3 miles less than your CT day
Cycle/Spinning:
      1 – Endurance Ride (hills and flat endurance roads for 90 mins)
      2 – All hill and leg strength work (very high resistance for 60 mins)
      3 – Combination Ride (of ride 1 and 2 OR outside ride for 75 minutes)

With late 2010 being the first year of on-stage competitions for myself, experimenting with new types of cross training and seeing what my body really responds to is going to be key here.  Learning how to shock my body with different types of routines is not only intriguing and necessary, it is fun.  Even though you live with it day in and day out, being rather surprised with how your body responds to exercise stimulus is mind boggling at times. 

So I challenge you this 2010 to make a plan and stick to it.  Make this year be the year of no more excuses.  Just be sure that HMB and Optimum Nutrition are also a part of your plan!

Be sure to check out NutritionMarket.com for HMB, it is the Featured Product of the Month!

 Your eating is 80% of your results and working out will help you build muscle and feel better, it’s the beginning, your eating is the means to the final result.  There are some good trainers out there, but make sure you check them out and that they REALLY know what they are doing.  Otherwise all you get are inexperienced people who think training is a cool job, but really don’t have a passion for it.  That discourages you, wastes your money, which is your investment into yourself, and causes you to become unmotivated and quit. I do this because it’s my life and helping people is greatly important to me!  Come see me at my gym and we’ll talk.  You will understand and see what I can do for you!
January 22, part of team HMB will be heading out to the LA fit expo in Los Angeles.  I’m really looking forward to it and getting to see and meet the new HMB fans as well as see the longtime HMB fans too.  I will be in the middle of my diet for the Arnold amateurs in March and that always becomes the tricky part when traveling, but I make it work!  I carry my chicken breasts and green veggies in my carry on then get ice after getting through security.  The security people just look at me funny and say they have never seen anything like it.  It is funny when you think about it, but it’s always been normal for me!  My weight is right around 290lbs and I think I’m coming in very well.  The long hours at the gym make contest prep harder than what it usually is, but that’s what this sport is all about.  You really do have to have a few screws loose to be a bodybuilder, powerlifter, or a strongman competitor.  You just truly do!  LOL

 The gym is going great and busy is good for any business.  Of course, I always want to do more!  Help more people, get more involved in the community and just do as much as I can to get more people healthy and active!

I hope everyone starts off 2010 happy, healthy and strong!  To do that, make sure you are using your Optimum Nutrition supplements and as always, your HMB!  So train hard and train smart.

Within these past ten years, things have drastically changed for all of us, there is no doubt about that.  Venturing into the fitness industry as a track and field athlete was my goal towards the turn of the century, only to be “side-railed” by a profession that I would have never dreamed, professional wrestling.  From flying from the top rope as a WWE Diva and then onto tv show Total Non Stop Action Knockout, I then took my greatest challenge on, becoming a mom.  A mom that still cannot not get enough of the fitness lifestyle.  Incorporating what is IMPORTANT TO YOU into your daily routine is necessary.  For me, that meant training for triathlons but also readying myself to compete on the fitness stage for the very first time.  And who knows, if the door of professional wrestling comes “a knockin’” once again (*hint hint*), I may be answering. 

All of this could not be possible without the tremendous thanks to my family, Team HMB, and those at Optimum Nutrition (ON).  Having a support system in place is crucial to your own success.
Make a vow now to get it together for 2010 and carry it through ten years strong.  Whether it is to brush up on your general health and lower that cholesterol or attain that professional status of an athlete, HMB and ON should be on the top of your lists (through the help of NutritionMarket.com)! 

The following should also be on the top of your agenda to ring in of the New Year! 
1 – Make HMB and a source of ON protein a staple to your everyday regimen…no matter your goals, you NEED to start out everyday giving your body what it needs and that is fuel!  *I’ve recently added ON’s Pro Complex to my blend of protein sources.*
2 – Set a new fitness goal and STICK TO IT – choose to participate in an athletic event and get on a set training plan (99% of the way there is to decide to just do it!)
3 – Use technology to your advantage.  With all the “Wii Fit” games out there and the workout applications that we can now download on our cell phones, make the most of all the hottest gadgets that you have and incorporate them into your health and fitness goals.  PROGRAM THE TIME INTO YOUR LIFE TO BE THE HEALTHIEST THAT YOU HAVE EVER BEEN.

Thanks to everyone who has supported HMB, ON, and me through the years.  Be sure to check back for even more fantastic things to come, including the events that Team HMB members will be attending for 2010.  Cheers and have a very safe and prosperous New Year!

Neglecting your own personal health and fitness goals are so easy to do, especially this time of year.  Recently going through some very tough times this holiday season, I simply want to help you realize the gift that most of us are given is our well-being. 

So amidst all the crazy shopping sprees and candy canes, here are a few tips that I would like to share with you all in order to stay on track of your health this season.

First things first, if you are not on your daily recommended dosage of HMB,then you are already off to the wrong start.  Give the gift of health this year to your family andfriends and to yourself.  To find HMB at the best prices out there, be sure to visit www.NutritionMarket.com and with every order of HMB receive a FREE gift from yours truly, NutritionMarket.com!

Secondly, when the times are hectic, neglecting the fuel that your body craves is also a huge “no no”.  Be sure to stock up on the best protein out there from Optimum Nutrition, like Hydrowhey.  Also, for those late night wrapping excursions or holiday parties we all must attend, give your body an extra boost with any ABB Drink. My personal favorite is the Diet Turbo Tea, while my husband can’t make it a day without his ABB Speed Stack.  The new ON Oats & Whey packets are also a great alternative to stuffing those stockings with sweets **hint hint**!

Finally, when it comes to putting those training hours in, now is the time when it seems more difficult than ever to hit the workout your body needs so much.  Here are a few workout ideas and tips that can help you make the time for yourself anywhere, anytime:

1. Kettlebell Workout – For those of you who need to get your weights in sometime during the day, try to change it up with Kettlebells (weights that have a handle attached to them).
2.   Push ups – Just yourself and the floor…where is the excuse?!?
3.  P90X (or any similar workout program) – We have all heard of it…why not try it out as your New Year’s Resolution and then “share it” as a Christmas gift for those who always have the excuse that they don’t have time for the gym!
4.  Abs – Get yourself a new and fun ab routine that you can do whenever the time allows.  There are millions of ways to avoid that bulge and look like the man in the red suit
5.  Run in the snow (just be sure to bundle up) or jump rope in the warm indoors – just be sure to do at least 20 minutes of cardio most days of the week in order to get into your fat burning mode and rid those mashed potatoes and gravy which you know may still be lingering around!

Most of all, enjoy this holiday season and enjoy the people you love.  Share stories and spend time with friends and family.  Wishing you and your family a safe and health holiday season; just be sure to do it with HMB, Optimum Nutrition and NutirionMarket.com (come on, you know I had to throw that in there)!

I’m stuck on all my Optimum Nutrition supplements too.  I use a lot of the Platinum Hydrowhey protein, speed stacks, diet turbo teas and of course my HMB!  I’m working some days 12 hours a day to 17-18 hours a day.  So all the recovery and energy is crucial to keep me going and growing!

My daily schedule is one of two ways - I wake up at 4:15 in the morning to open the gym by 5:00 and train clients from then til around 8:30.  Run errands or go to appointments then back to the gym to do whatever needs to be done in the gym, then train again starting at around 3:00 til 6:30 or 7:00.  Oh, and somewhere in there I get my workout in too.  My wife and I switch off with the opening and closing duties as I said before and so both of us have very long days, so even though we work together, we don’t really SEE each other, if you understand what I mean.

I’m staying right at 302lbs and will stay there til I start my diet again in January  for the Arnold Amateurs in March.  I’m really excited about doing this contest!  Our gym is open, so the anxiety of opening is gone.  Stress is still there though!  lol.  Now I can focus on running our business and getting ready for my show.  I just want to go in there and do well.  It will be fun competing and meeting everyone at the HMB booth!  It’s just neat I can do both at the Arnold this year!

Keep reading up on my progress to the Arnold. Keep taking your HMB, getting plenty of rest, using your Optimum Nutrition supplements and training hard!  You will thank me for it!

I’ve been adding volume and intensity to my strongman training and really am looking forward to competing again. My work capacity with heavy carries is progressing nicely and dumbbell pressing is consistently improving too.

The 105KG Strongman Championships are on for this year as well. I was given the nod to represent America based on being the National Champion last year. The contest is being held in Kiev, Ukraine starting December 11th. I will do my best to represent America and Team HMB as well as bring home a strong finish. The strongman events that are scheduled to be contested are:

1. Arm over arm Pull
2. Dumbbell Press
3. Truck Pull
4. Log lift medley
5. Farmer Carry
6. Squat for reps
7. Stone Loading

I’ve also made some changes to my nutritional program. With the HMB, I added in an additional 2 grams (6 total) on training days. Recovery is going very well. I’m also using the new Platinum Hydrowhey from Optimum Nutrition. This stuff is packed with all the necessary fixens for recovery from heavy training including a stout portion of BCAA’s. The ABB Intensity Speed Shots are great for improving your focus and intensity while training too. I’ve never had a problem in this department, but the Speed Shots took me to a whole new level of focused.

Train hard and look out for an update from the 105KG Strongman World Championships!

MHP or Maximum Human Performance is a well-established sports nutrition company that has been around for over ten years. MHP provides both effective and high-quality products for their clients. They were recently named “The Breakout Sports Nutrition Brand of the Year” by the 2008 Prosource Supplement Buyer’s Guide.

MHP A-Bomb was one of the first products available on the market to work as a gene enhancer. All of A-Bomb’s ingredients have been thoroughly researched at the DNA level, where they manipulate key muscle growth factors, such as the mTOR pathway and many other pathways.  By working to stimulate multiple pathways, A-Bomb increases muscle mass while simultaneously hindering muscle breakdown. It also works to hydrate muscle tissue, maximizing both muscle cell volume and strength.

In addition to these great benefits, A-Bomb continues long after your done training thanks to the pharmaceutically-developed 12 Hour Metered Dose Technology. This places your body in a high anabolic state, meaning your building muscle all day long!

 I will keep you posted on the release of the DVD. It's an incredible workout and I am proud of it. May you all have a wonderful Holiday, allow yourself to breathe, enjoy your families, and truly be thankful!

Even though I am ready to tackle cycling and swimming again, I have decided to go “back to my roots” for the next month and a half and really concentrate on running.  Seeing that my travel schedule has been rather hectic and will continue to be so through the first of the year, I decided why make it harder for me to train on the road…why not make it “fit”.  I have found that the Nike 5. are the best running shoe for my needs!  Whatever your preference is, make sure that if you are about to start on any training plan, that you give your feet what they need.  If your feet are out of sync with their needs, you can be assured that the rest of your body will be as well and you will not be maximizing your training.

Currently, being nearly mid way through my 16 week training plan, my body is rapidly changing due to the ample amount of miles I am putting out.  Below is a chart of a typical week of training for me, normally running around 48 to 60 miles per week.  I like this plan because it can be done really anywhere and anytime.  (Hint, hint – no matter where you are traveling over this holiday season, there are always roads to run on!)

Day 1: 5 miles - easy
Day 2: 6 miles - increasing pace with distance
Day 3: 6 miles - fast paced and timed
Day 4: 6 miles - interval work of 200-300 meters (known as fartleks)
Day 5: 5 miles - easy (OR rest)
Day 6: 4 miles - easy pace OR cross train
Day 7: 13.1 miles (half-marathon race)

I am looking forward to being able to “reward” myself with the half-marathon Thanksgiving morning after all this endurance training.

The increase of mileage, increase of calories, and HMB have all played a key role in my training.  I am now taking 4 grams of HMB per day, along with a caloric increase of close to 1,000 calories.  In order to fulfill my daily requirement easily, I have added an additional ON Hydro Whey protein shake (now at 3 per day) along with ON GLYCOMAIZE pre-run in order to make sure that I have enough complex carbohydrates to fill my workouts.  A must post-run requirement is ON 2:1:1 Recovery in order to replenish my muscles after pounding out the miles.  What a huge difference this addition has made!  Not only do I not feel the buildup of lactic acid in my legs as much throughout the week (especially on speed days), but I feel as if my body has a “boost button” when I would otherwise be taxing. 

Until next time, please be sure to take care of yourself this holiday season; it will come and go before you know it.  And remember, it’s NEVER too early to plan that New Year’s Resolution…even getting a jump start on it with HMB and Optimum Nutrition through NutritionMarket.com!!
             
 

I will be starting my next macrocycle with a short phase that will focus on volume and getting in shape to peak for March, then getting more specific with heavier loading as time progresses. See the attached file for the details of the final three phases. I will continue to focus on glute and hip strength to improve my deadlift in the mid-ranges of the pull, but also work at ensuring my low back is stronger than ever. I think the partial ISO deadlifts will be great for pushing through the sticking point in the pull and I think the zercher deadlifts will be great for strengthening the pull off of the floor. I will be sure to post videos of these on my You Tube page in the future.

Still taking 8 caps of Optimum Nutrition HMB per day. In my own experience, HMB seems to work the best when I take the first 4 caps before the day’s training session, instead of waiting until after. I do not know all the specifics of recovery, but I do know that recovery starts immediately after the training session is finished. It makes sense to give the body a head start at making the HMB available when it needs it most. Also started taking Optimum Nutrition Hydrowhey protein. I take two servings twice a day, every day. It is a very high quality protein and tastes unbelievable!

So, the plan was for me to compete at NPC Nationals on the 20th and 21st.  Because of opening the gym, the plan for Nationals went out the window really quick.  My training and dieting took a hit due to the 16-17 hrs days.   My wife and I do everything except for a couple nights a week when our part time employee gives a chance to get away and be with our daughter.  Since the days have been very long, my energy has obviously taken a hit so I started taking the ABB speed shots and drinking a lot of the RTD 50 protein drinks (the cookies and cream is my favorite) as well as the Optimum Platinum Hydro Whey.  I mix it with my egg whites.  That stuff is great!  How it mixes is incredible and the taste is the best of any protein I have ever used!  And of course, HMB!  Even from all the long hours, days and the time I haven’t been able to train, I haven’t lost a thing!  Weight is still 296, and I look great! 

Now for Nationals… I need to be 100% when I compete, and when I can’t give it 100%, I won’t half ass it.  I won’t do it to myself or my fans!  So my decision was based on my commitment to the gym and the time necessary to prepare.  So instead, I have decided to do the Arnold Amateur in Columbus, Ohio during the Arnold Classic weekend.   I will then decide from there which national level show I will do; whether it is USA’s or National’s next year.  I will have had a year and a half off when I compete in March in Columbus, so I will be bringing a whole new package to the stage and since my decision to stick with Optimum Nutrition supplements, which are the highest in quality I have found, my gains and recovery have increased even more.  Finding what works for you is the key to your individual success, but the nutrition and supplements you choose should be a huge part of your program.  I will only recommend HMB and ON supplements!   So much so that our gym is an exclusive ON supplement retailer!

So keep checking in for my progress, updates about our gym and how my consistency of taking Optimum Nutrition HMB and other Optimum products continues to push my gains.  Until then, keep training hard and using HMB and Optimum Nutrition supplements.  You will thank me for it!
 

I would like to take this opportunity to share with you what I have put so much time and effort into lately, on top of trying to prevent my family from getting the flu, the re-naming and re-launch of CustomMuscle.com to NUTRITIONMARKET.COM.  Having a vision to make our online superstore so much more, we have merged with a few key partners to make NutritionMarket.com your one stop health and nutrition headquarters.  With over 4,500 products to choose from, most of which below wholesale. I have been researching over the past month on how to make the new site more user-friendly and of course more informative.  I invite all of you to check it out! 

Optimum Nutrition will be featured on NutritionMarket.com soon too!  And I am not only talking about the HMB that Optimum Nutrition has to offer (HMB 1000 Caps).  I am also very excited to report the top of the line protein on the market today; ON Platinum Hydro Whey.  I have been swapping from protein to protein for some time now and just have not found “that one”.  However, when I got a sneak preview of the ON Platinum Hydro Whey, I knew that my search was over.  Not only is it extremely soluble in whatever you choose to mix with, it actually tastes great too.  At 30 grams per serving and having a great fraction profile, it is a must for everyone.
