Big muscles vs Stable Functional Muscles

Many avid gym goers focus on strengthening the larger muscle groups in their body, and solely do lifts that are stationary or that don’t require the body to work together as a complete unit. The majority of these people lack of muscle balance and muscle stability. Therefore, although they may seem strong by lifting heavy weights, they are weak when it comes to functional movements. For example, if someone you know has a very high bench max but a low squat max, no matter how big he/she looks, that person will not be strong when it comes to perform some movements such as pushing. Simply because pushing is a functional movement that engages many muscles in your body and requires a strong base and core. 

The basis behind all of these is stability. I know everyone wants to have the biggest arms in the gym, show off how much they can lift, and not be the one doing the small “wimpy” exercises that focus on the small muscles. However, people shouldn’t care about what others think, since having big muscles and not being able to do anything in real life with them is simply pointless. People should focus more on building strong, functional muscles. Therefore, go ahead and focus on multiple joint exercises, and try to involve as many muscle groups as you can in a single exercise. This does not mean that you have to do weird exercises, you just have to be a little creative and apply this philosophy in basic exercises. For example, I personally hold my legs straight out when I bench. This works my abs which in return isolates my chest and prevent me from cheating. Therefore, it not only engages other muscles, but it also make the muscle that I am trying to work, even stronger. There are many other ways to incorporate these philosophy into your workout. Moreover, when doing these, it is important to focus more on your legs and core than anything else. Have you ever heard someone say “use your abs” when trying to balance? Well that is because it is the center of your body and in order to be able to balance, your core needs to be strong.

Although I will not get into specific workouts, I encourage you to make some small steps by searching or creating ways to enhance each exercise you do by involving your body. Focus in stabilization, even if it means using light weights. In the long run it will be worth it! Stability is strength. Being athletic and having functional muscles, is far better than just having big useless muscles.

The Executive Workout

The Executive Workout

Unfortunately, not everyone has a work schedule that allows them to get to the gym 4-5 times a week. If you are someone who travels a lot or works an insane amount of hours this is for you! Although it is a tough workout it is very simple. It is a two day a week workout comprised of five full body or multiple joint movement exercises, such as squat, deadlift, etc. For each exercise you choose a weight that at most you can do 6-8 reps. The goal for each exercise is to reach 25 reps. There are no time limits or rest period limits. Even if for one set you can only do two reps that is fine. Once you reach 25 reps, move on to the next exercise. An example of a good set of exercises are but not limited too….

• Squat 
• Push Press 
• Bench Press 
• Deadlift 
• Weighted Pull Ups

V16, The Best Caffeine Free Energy Drink

Nowadays, most people need either a coffee or an energy drink to get through their day. Everybody seems to need that extra kick of energy in order to keep up with the demands of their lifestyle. And how could they not? Between work, ecenomic stress, family and social life, and one's own personal issues, it is hard to find time to rest, eat and even excercise properly. Therefore, due to lack do sleep and improper nutrition, it is almost necessary to resort to caffeine and energy drinks (since there is no time for a nap) to stay awake during the day. These is why energy drinks and coffee are so popular. However, alternatives for people that do not drink caffeine are not as popular, which only leaves them with very unhealthy alternatives in order to keep their energy levels high. Well, ADVOCARE provides people that do not drink caffeine, a very healthy and effective alternative. This alternative is calle V16.

V16 Energy Drink is a unique combination of adaptogens, nutrients and a balanced blend of B vitamins in a caffeine-free, effervescent drink designed to provide quick energy and mental focus. Because of its comprehensive formula, V16 Energy Drink is an excellent solution for energy, stress and core nutrition. The B vitamins in V16 provide long-lasting energy by supporting and enhancing the body’s natural energy production abilities. The body looks to carbohydrates, protein and fat as energy sources, and B vitamins such as vitamin B-12, vitamin B-6 and thiamine help improve the body’s ability to gain energy from each source. V16 Energy Drink also includes unique adaptogens that help increase the body’s resistance to stress as well as facilitate oxygen transport, increase endurance and support energy. These adaptogens make V16 Energy Drink an exceptional product that is appropriate for the hard-working, stay-at-home mom and the serious professional athlete alike. The most important thing, is that this V16 energy drink is as effective as any caffeinated energy drink out there. I was a daily consumer of coffee, and I lately became a daily consumer of the Spark energy drink, therefore my body is used to caffeine. However, I decided to try the V16 energy drink for a week, and I loved it. It works just as well as the Spark, and it gives the same mental focus. Ever since I tried the V16 energy drink, I've been using it. The flavor is excellent, and it is only 20 calories. Moreover, it is cheaper than any other energy drink, coming to $1.39 per servings. I strongly recommend you to try it whether you drink caffeine or not. You can find it here: - https://www.advocare.com/130719744/Store/ItemDetail.aspx?itemCode=A4372&id=search

Tip of the Day: Post Workout Meal

Everyone says you need protein immediately after a workout, normally within an hour.  Ever heard that?  Well this is true to an extent but what many people fail to learn is that you need to also ingest carbs, fats, or pretty much food in general.  The reason being is that after your workout your metabolism is at its most rapid rate, and if you only feed your body protein your metabolism will quickly digest it for energy instead of storing it for muscle gain/recovery.  To prevent this, it is vital to eat good/complex carbs right after a workout and then drink or eat your protein.  Your body will digest the carbs quickly and store the protein for energy.  Protein itself cannot increase your body fat percentage so it will solely be broken down for muscle gain.  Depending on your diet you can decide on how much carbs you intake.  

Third World Squat Stretch and Hip Mobility

​Ever heard of the Third World Squat?  Well the name describes itself.  Most third world countries are given that name for the basic fact that they are so poor that even small luxuries like chairs or insect repellent don’t exist.  Since many insects or small animals are deadly in these countries, the people cannot sit down on the floor.  So for rest, theydo the third world squat, which is shown below.

                                              

If you notice, their heels are on the ground while they are squatting, and for them this is for rest!  In developed countries such as ours, things like shoes or sitting in chairs all day tighten our hips and thus, the third world squat is impossible.  Whether your in an office all day or an avid gym goer, the third world squat stretch should be done everyday.  All you have to do is put your feet shoulder width apart and slightly pointing outwards, then squat down as far as you can and hold it for 2 minutes at a time.  Holding it for so long tires your muscles which results in them releasing their tension, allowing you to go lower.  This is something great to do before a leg workout or after.  Hip mobility is very important and many of us don’t focus on it.  So challenge yourself, get off the computer and try it right now!

Tips To Get Bigger and Leaner

I'm going to give you some tips on maximizing your gains at the gym. These are just some simple advices that will make your muscles look bigger and leaner in a matter of weeks without using any supplement.

1. More Reps, Even if it means less weight

    You have to put your pride aside and do more repetitions per exercise even if it means to lower the weight. If you want your muscles to be bigger and leaner, you need to focus on putting them through time under tension, and the way to do this, is by increasing your reps to at least 12+, even if that means lowering the weight to a 75% of your max. Another important thing, is to only rest 1 minute between sets. 

2. Rest each body part at least 4 days.

    Rest is where the muscle is actually growing. So it is necessary  for each body part to rest for at least 4 days in order to recuperate and regenerate itself appropriately. Believe me, if you are working each body part with more than 12 repetitions per set, you will need those 4 days to recuperate. 

3. Get Lean

    Getting lean will give your muscle more definition, and it will make them look more vascular, which gives the illusion of a bigger muscle.

4. Do drop sets

    Going back to time under tension. Drop sets are great, and they should be incorporated in the last set of every exercise. They will make you burn more calories, boost your metabolism, and get bigger and leaner muscles.

5. Eat Clean

    I dont care if you are in a bulking phase or in a cutting phase, everyone should always eat clean. Nutrition is extremely important in transforming our bodies, and the mistake that many people do, is that they eat unhealthy during their bulking phase, which simply makes them gain fat. The problem with this is that when the cutting phase comes, they loose all the weight back. I invite you to eat clean since the beginning and actually gain muscle. It will take a little longer, but it is worth it.

6. Boost your metabolism

     We need to constantly boost our metabolism if we want to burn more calories and to have more energy throughout the day. One of the simplest ways to boost our metabolism is by drinking lots of water, and eating at least every 4 hours. this will make your body burn more fat, and maintain muscle.

I hope these was helpful, and let me know if you have any questions. 

Advocare 24-Day Challenge Review

So Advocare has a package called the 24-Day challenge, in which they claim to take the toxins out of your body, give you overall nutrition and wellness, raise your energy levels, and all these while loosing weight. I don't know about you, but it seems too good to be true, especially in only 24 days. Well, let me tell you guys that it is true! The 24-Day challenge does all the above and more. It is crazy effective, and all these while being healthy. 

The science behind it is really simple. The first phase is called the cleanse phase, and its purpose is to cleanse your body from toxins and prepare it for optimal absorption of nutrients, vitamins, and good fats. This phase goes from day 1-10. The second phase is called the Max Phase, and its purpose is to fuel your body with the necessary nutrients, vitamins, fats, and metabolism booster, for it to loose weight while staying healthy. This phase goes from day 11-24. 

The challenge consists of:

Phase I:

• Herbal Cleanse-Citrus: helps to cleanse and detoxify your body.
• OmegaPlex®: essential fatty acids for increased overall wellness.
• AdvoCare Spark®: nutritionally-advanced energy

Phase II:

• Metabolic Nutrition System (MNS®): Your choice of Max C+ (appetite control), Max E+ (energy), or Max 3 - for weight management, appetite control and overall wellness.
• Meal Replacement Shake - your choice of chocolate mocha, chocolate, vanilla, berry or non-dairy dark chocolate: Complete nutrition in a great-tasting shake!
• AdvoCare Spark®: nutritionally advanced energy

And as I was saying before, it works. I did it myself, and the results were unbelievable. To be honest, I was very skeptical to do the challenge, because I wasn't too sure about doing a cleanse and having to take supplements. But i give it a shot because I saw a couple friends having crazy results. Therefore, I just did it, and I am glad I did. The quality of the products is unbelievable. The cleanse does not make you go poop every two hours, and the Spark doesn't give you the jitters. Not to mention that the Meal replacement shake is incredibly delicious. And I guarantee you that you will loose fat. 

Moreover, although the products work better if you exercise, it does not requires you to do it. And it works equally effective on man and woman. I strongly recommend the Challenge to everyone, no matter the level of fitness you are in. I don't  care if you are young, old, obese, fit, man, or woman. These will make you loose fat, and break any plateau.

Advocare Scam

Advocare has incredibly great products that have the power to change your life. In addition to that, it is also a great business opportunity. I don't care what you have heard about MLMs, Network Marketing, or anything like that, with Advocare you have a chance to make some serious money. As a matter of fact, it is fairly easy and it does not require for you to invest more than 80 dollars a year. The way to do it is simple, you become a distributor by simply paying 80 dollars, and you automatically get a personal 20% discount on any product you want to buy for yourself, as well as a distributor kit that is worth 50 dollars. So you are only really investing 30 dollars. The distributor kit comes with a box of 14 packs of Spark, a box of Slam, and various brochures, training CDs, and catalogs. In addition to that, Advocare creates a website for you so you can send people there to buy the products online, of which you will get 20% of what they spend. No to mention that that 20% can eventually become a 40%. This means that by only investing 30 dollars, you have the potential to have a 40% discount and 40% earnings of what people spend in your website, and you don't even have to touch the merchandise. It is that easy. And listen, if people are saying that it is a Scam it is simply because they did not even try, or because they think it is too good to be true. I invite you to do it my friend, and make some money. Plus you will get a discount on the products yourself, and believe me the products work. When I signed up, I split the cost with a friend so we only paid 40 dollars each, but it worked so well that he decided to get his own account. I forgot to mention that if someone signs up on your website, you also benefit from whatever that person earns. However, it is not a pyramid scheme simply because you only benefit from them as long as their discount percentage is lower than yours (you get the difference between theirs and yours). Once that person makes it to the same percentage or higher, they become partners of yours. That is what makes it possible for you to get on top without having any "connections" or anything like that. It is not a SCAM! IT IS NOT A SCAM!

Ps: If you have a lot of friends, if you are likable, and if you know people that care about their health, this is for you!

If you want to sign up as a distributor go here, and I will be your Sponsor....I will help you in every step of the process:

Workouts Every Man Should Do

There are certain exercises that every man should be able to do period, but even more so if he is considering spending money in any kind of fitness activity. There is absolutely no need to invest money in a gym membership if you are not able to do the exercises that you will see in the list, simply because there is no need to get fancy with weights and accessories before you can even handle and master certain movements that involve your body weight. It is extremely important for everyone to be fully aware of their bodies, and to fully control and dominate their own weight. These ability and awareness will give you a strong foundation and athleticism. Therefore, don't waste your money in a gym membership to get as strong and as fit as you could get for FREE. That way, when you do master these exercises and go to a gym, you will really take advantage of the accessories and different tools that a gym has to offer. You will really get your money worth because from that point on, you will develop in a way that you would no be able to develop outside the gym (at least for free). But before that, it simply doesn't make sense to go to a gym and waste your money getting to the same level of strength that could be getting for FREE. Anyways, these are the exercises that every man should do before entering a gym:

1. Jogging, for at least 15 mins

    Every man should be able to jog for at least 15 minutes. If you are not able to jog for 15 minutes, instead of looking for a gym membership, get yourself a nice pair of sneakers and start jogging. Try jogging 5 minutes first and add 2 minutes every week. If you aren't able to jog 5 minutes at a time, then jog for 1 minute and walk for 30 seconds and repeat these for at least 6 times. Then increase those times every week. Jogging will help you with your stamina, your cardio, and your weight.

2. Push-Ups, at least 20 reps

    Everyman should be able to do at least 20 push-ups in a row. If your are not able to do these, start doing some push-ups my friend. Start with as many as you can, and when you can't do any more, drop your knees to the ground and do 5 more. Push-ups will strengthen your chest, your back, your bicep, your triceps, and your core.

3. Chin-Ups, at least 10

    Every man should be able to do at least 10 chin-ups. This exercise will strengthen your biceps, chest, shoulders, and core. If you have difficulties, jump to a position where your chin is above the bar, and go down as slowly as you can. This will make you stronger.

4. Pull-Ups, at least 8

    Chin-Ups is my personal favorite exercise. It is good for your biceps, triceps, chest, back, shoulders, forearms, and core. If you can't do it, do the same thing as the chin-ups.

5. Dips, at least 10

    Every man should be able to do 10 dips in a row. It is a great exercise for the triceps, the chest, and the core. If you can't do dips, do the same thing as with the pull-ups and chin-ups.

6. Squats, at least 10

    You thought I was going to forget about the lower body, well I did not. Every man should be able to do 10 squats. If you can't, do as many as you can at least 3 times a week, and that number will increase in a couple weeks.

Every man should do these 6 exercises before entering a gym. It is important to be aware and to dominate your own body-weight. These exercises will make you stronger, bigger, and leaner, without lifting a single weight. Therefore there is no need for you to pay a gym membership to get as strong as you could be getting for free in a park or in your own house.

Drink more water to get fit!

2 questions for you:

- Do you drink water?

- How much water do you drink?

Listen people, if you don't drink water don't even bother worrying about dieting, working out, loosing weight, building muscle, taking supplements, or anything related to health. Instead, just start drinking water now. Drinking water is as important as breathing, but for some reason we tend to forget about the fluid that constitute more than 60% of our bodies. People have replaced water with all kinds of juices, coffees, energy drinks, and sodas. No wonder why there are so many diabetic, dehydrated, and obese people out there. 

Don't get me wrong, I understand that a coffee wakes you up in the morning far more effectively than a cup of water, and that a Coke or an Orange juice tastes much better than a water bottle. But come on! you are just putting caffeine and sugar in your body. These drinks will dehydrate you and make you weaker, while drinking water would improve your energy and focus, boost your metabolism, flush out the toxins in your body, improve your skin, reduce your risk of heart attack, and more. I could write a book listing all the benefits of drinking water, so do yourself a favor and drink some water right now. And if you diet or workout, you need to drink even more water. People that are trying to achieve fitness goals, whether it is to gain muscle, lose fat, or perform better, are constantly pushing their bodies and therefore need better care than people that aren't. Without drinking the proper amount of water, you will not be able to build muscle and burn fat efficiently. Moreover, if you are not properly hydrated your blood volume will decrease, which will cause a reduction in the supply of oxygen to your muscles and consequently make you feel tired, which would affect your performance. Water also assists your muscles in their ability to contract, and it lubricates your joints, which reduces soreness. Therefore, water will help you gain muscle, lose weight, and improve your performance. 

Seriously, just drink more water and you will automatically see positive results in and out of the weight room.

Best Way To Workout For You

As we discussed in a previous post, setting your fitness goals is the first and most important step in choosing a workout plan. Its importance lies in the fact that for a workout to be effective and give you the results that you are looking for, it must be gear towards achieving your specific goals. So here I'm going to give you the general rules you need to follow in your workout plan in order to achieve whatever goals you are looking for.

1. If what you want is to do strength training (get stronger and lift heavier weights):

• Lift heavy, around 85% to 95% of your max
• Take long rests between sets, between 2-4 minutes to fully recuperate
• Do no more than 5 repetitions
• Do between 4-6 sets 
• Around 3 times a week

These rules will also make your muscles grow. However, their main focus is on strength.

2. If you are doing hypertrophy training (have big and defined muscles like a bodybuilder):

• The key here is to put the muscle under a lot of time under tension. Therefore the repetitions must be slow and controlled
• The weight must only be about 75% of your max
• Do from 10-15 repetitions
• Do between 2-3 sets
• Do not allow yourself more than 90 sec rest in between sets 
• Give each muscle around 4 day to recuperate

These rules are focussed in building bigger and leaner muscles. Due to the high volume of repetition, it will make your body burn more calories. 

3. If what you want is to loose weight:

• Very low weight, less than 50% of your max
• More than 15 repetitions
• Less than 60 seconds rest intervals
• Do more than 5 times a week

There you go people, apply these to your workout plans, and reach those goals that you want to reach.

Best energy drink? Advocare Spark Review

Advocare against competition

Nowadays you can find energy drinks pretty much everywhere you go. They come in different flavors, sizes and prices, and people seem to love them all. The idea of drinking something that will wake you up and give you the necessary energy to workout or simply get through your day, is just great. However, many of these drinks are loaded with sugar, caffeine, taurine, calories, and carbohydrates. And even if the drinks are great and do the job, it just doesn't seem healthy to drink them. Well, that is where Advocare Spark steps in. I have not tried a healthier and more effective energy drink out there. It is fuel with more vitamins than any other energy drink, less caffeine and taurine than most, and it is only 45 calories. In my home, my wife was a huge fan of the Monster Energy Drink and was stubborn about trying any other energy drink. She thought no other energy drink could give her the same energy. Well, I made her try the Spark, and she loved it. It waked her up even faster than the Monster, it didn't give her the jitters, and it made her feel focus an energized for hours. Spark is sugar-free, it has more than 20 vitamins, minerals and nutrients, and it is only 45 calories. Most importantly, unlike the other energy drinks, Spark displays all the nutritional facts you want to know in their canister and pouches.

The way it works is pretty easy, the caffeine and the taurine gives you the fast energy kick that you are looking for, while the B vitamins give you the long-lasting energy by enhancing your body's ability to produce and sustain energy. They also enhance the metabolism and makes your body use the calories stored for energy. Finally, Spark also gives you mental focus with the neuro-active amino acids (like L-tyrosine) it contains. These amino acids support your brain's ability to receive and send messages to and from the nervous system. Some of them also serve as precursors for neurotransmitters. So, in simple words, Spark gives you a lot of vitamins, quick energy, long lasting energy, and mental focus.

           

Besides all these, there are some other things about the Spark that makes it better than the rest. I personally love the fact that it is not carbonated because it doesn't make me feel uncomfortable when I take it before working out. I also like the fact that it doesn't make me feel jittery, and since it is so full of vitamins, it doesn't make me feel a strong crash when the effects are over. The fact that it is dissolved in water is great too, since it doesn't give the feeling of a sticky and dry mouth, and it makes it easier for the body to absorb the vitamins. At last, I love the energy and focus that it gives. It is just amazing how focussed it makes me feel, so much, that I used to take the Spark when I was studying or was going to take a test.

Anyways, if you care about what you put in your body, Advocare Spark is the solution for you. It gives vitamins, energy, and focus. And if you buy a canister, it ends up being $1.23 per serving. I invite you to try it, and I promise you will love it. The only advice I would give you, is to dissolve it in 16 oz of water and not 8 oz. I like it better like that.

Advocare Results

Advocare Results

Many people are very skeptical about Advocare, and to be honest I don't blame them. I understand that the fact that the company is structured as an MLM and that a lot of people are solely interested in the business opportunity, make people wonder about the actual quality of their products. However, the truth is that even though the business opportunity that Advocare provides is excellent, the products are even better. When I first heard about Advocare, I was very skeptical and I didn't even think about trying any of their products until a friend gave me a sample of the Spark. After trying and researching on it, I decided to buy a pack. I heard that the results of taking Advocare products were going to be great, but I didn't really believe it. So without really thinking about the final results, I started taking Spark just because I loved the kind of energy and focus that it gave me, plus the fact that it was full of vitamins. Then, after seeing the results of Spark, I decided to try some other products. I started to use the Meal replacement Shake, the Nighttime Recovery, and the Catalyst. I felt the results right away. The products gave me energy and focus throughout the day, and I felt stronger during my workouts. Even my mood changed. The good thing about all these, is that it wasn't just that I started to feel great, I also started to look better. In less than 3 months my body drastically changed without feeling burned out, and I lost weight and gained muscle a the same time. The results were so great, that I couldn't help but becoming a member of Advocare. So seriously, believe me when I tell you that Advocare works, and that the results are amazing. I know some of you are thinking that you don't need any products at all to transform your body, and you might be right. However, Advocare not only gives you energy to workout even harder, but it also gives you all the vitamins and amino acids your body needs. It simply takes care of your body and boosts your transformation. So if you can do it without Advocare, imagine what you can do with it. Trust me when I tell you that the Advocare results are awesome. If you don't believe me, try it yourself, send me an email and I will send you a couple of spark samples. I guarantee you that you will love it!

How to get fit and plan a workout program

plan a workout program

The first step you have to take in order to get fit and plan a workout program that will be effective, is to set goals. Setting goals when it comes to fitness is extremely important and for some reason, extremely underestimated as well. Your goals are going to determine the workout program that you need to follow. For instance, if your goal is to get fit in order to perform better in a specific sport, you are going to have a different workout plan than someone who's fitness goal is to lose weight. The same applies for someone who wants to get stronger and someone who wants to get leaner. Now, I am not saying that you cannot get stronger and get leaner at the same time. What I am saying is that in order for a workout plan to be effective, it has to  emphasize on achieving your specific goal. So, before you pick a workout plan, you have to ask yourself what your specific goals are. Do you want to loose weight and gain muscle? Do you want to get stronger and lift more weight than everyone else in your gym? Or do you want to perform better in a specific activity? Ask yourself what your goals are, and i guarantee you that this will help you plan an effective workout where you will see great results.
