The difference between the different types of protein

  It isn’t uncommon to be slightly confused by the three different types of protein on the market. Different people tell you which ones are better, and when you should be taking them. Isolate, Whey, and Casein actually do have their differences. Hopefully, by the end of this article, you’ll be a protein expert, because we’ll be taking you through their functions, why you should take each one, and when they’re appropriate. We’ll start with the normal Whey Protein, as this seems to be the most common one people use. Whey will be quickly digested. Within 20 minutes, it will be flowing through your veins, and within the hour, it should be fully metabolized. This is a positive, because the quicker you get the protein to the muscles, the better, and more quickly they recover. Whey is a by-product of cheese or milk production. It is generally the most affordable protein, but it isn’t necessarily the best quality for you, and your body. Though it is pure, it is not even close to being the most pure protein on the market. Now, we’ll discuss Whey Isolate. Isolate is the next step up in purity compared to normal Whey protein. It…

Lifting belts Article

This week, we’ll be talking about lifting belts, and whether or not they provide the protection many people claim. How important is it really, and what is it’s real purpose? Some people may be surprised to find out, it may not be exactly what you think. Many believe it provides protection against injury, but is that really the case? Hopefully, we’ll be able to clear up what the purpose of a belt is, and if you’re looking to buy one, which would be the best purchase for you. First of all, a belt’s main function, before protection, is actually to enhance performance. Another misconception is thinking it’s there to support your back. Actually, it is more importantly supporting your abdominal core. This allows it to stabilize your entire midsection and allow you to lift more weight, with what feels like, better support. This is why, contrary to popular belief, a belt really doesn’t serve the purpose of protection very well. People assume it will completely cut down the risk of injury to none, but this isn’t necessarily the case. As important as it is without the belt, form is key if you want to use it properly. If you have…

overcome your cold/flu, without losing weight

For many, finding the motivation to devote so much time and effort to their body is extremely difficult. To be able to maintain the required amount of consistency for months at a time is something to be very proud of. Once you’re rolling, there’s little that can interfere with you and your motivation. Other than injury, a huge one is being sick. It may sound like a minor speed bump, but losing those few pounds of muscle, or falling out of that rhythm can be really discouraging.   With the amount of flu and colds going around this month, it seems unavoidable. Governor Cuomo actually declared state of emergency in New York due to the flu epidemic, and it’s all over North America, so avoiding it isn’t easy. Fortunately, there are ways to reduce your chances.   Being in great shape already allows your body to better function. This is true for things such as your metabolism, and even sleep patterns. That being said, your immune system is also improved. To add to that, it is suggested (by Marc, and many others) to take a lot of vitamins, and supplements so you can really get the most out of your body and…

Wondering what age you should start training? articlesVideos

Wondering what age you should start training?

In recent years, many questions have been raised about when kids should start working out. Before we get into it, I’d like to point out; I’m not a doctor, and these are just my opinions based on information I’ve researched. This is what I believe is right. Though this is the case, throughout the article I hope to be able to provide some useful, and simple information.  Often, the reason people say you shouldn’t train too young is because your body is still developing, and lifting weights could have a negative impact on it’s progress. Well, women will be done with growth by the age of 21, but men can continue all the way until 25. So really, does it negatively affect your body?  There are multiple different opinions on whether or not it actually does stop growth, or change its patterns at all. It seems to be an obvious consensus when it comes to lifting heavy weight at a young age. For example, it isn’t recommended to be squatting extremely heavy at the age of 14. If that is the case, it is quite possible; even likely, it may negatively alter your growth pattern.  Although, this may not mean…

Sleep is for Suckers, or Champions?

Looking to get more out of your workouts? Sure, proper training regimen and diet are both key aspects, but what about sleep? Often disregarded, sleep is the solution to many people’s muscle building problems. Believe it or not, no matter how good your diet, and post workout shake are, recovery will be greatly hindered without the correct amount of sleep.  Though the second you leave the gym your muscles slowly begin to recover, sleep is an extremely important factor in assuring the recovery is complete, and done properly. Things like your post-workout shake, and post-workout meal also help with recovery, but no supplement or food can make up for hours of rest.  Sleep is the best possible rest for your body. While asleep, your body enters and exits many different stages. To be precise, there are 5 different stages of sleep you’re bound to encounter during an average night of sleep. Here is a list of the 5 stages, what they’re all about, and which will most benefit your body! Stage 1 is a relatively light sleep. In general, it’ll last a maximum of 10 minutes, and occurs when you’re transitioning from being awake, to falling asleep. This does your…

What is FST-7?

FST-7 is a training principle created by Hany Rambod, the Pro Creator. He has been using this training principle for many years exclusively with his clients to create physiques that win. WHAT IS FST-7 FST-7 is a training system I devised after years of research and a great deal of trial and error with many clients. FST stands for Fascia Stretch Training, and the seven refers to the seven sets performed for the final exercise of a target bodypart. I have had many clients use this system for overall growth and especially to improve stubborn bodyparts that were seemingly resistant to just about anything else the person had tried. FST-7 encompasses several factors both inside and outside the gym.   IS FASCIA LIMITING YOUR MUSCLE GROWTH? There are three types of fascia in the human body, but the type bodybuilders should be concerned about is deep fascia. This is dense fibrous connective tissue that interpenetrates and surrounds the muscles, bones, nerves, and blood vessels of the body. The high density of collagen fibers is what gives the deep fascia its strength and integrity. The amount of elastin fibers determines how much extensibility and resiliency it will have. In other words,…
