Improve Athletic Performance: Faster and More Complete Recuperation
June 9, 2010 – 2:07 pm | No Comment

Fast and complete recuperation are two of the most important elements of improving your athletic performance – especially if you run a hard training schedule. Faster recuperation means you don’t fall behind: you can fit more training sessions in, and you’re not out of commission for a week or two after a big event. More complete recuperation means your training sessions will be more productive: you’re body is stronger and more fully healed, ready to push harder. And if you can train harder and more often without suffering the negative consequences of over training, your performance will improve, along with your general well-being.

Masters TriAthlete Prepares for NJ Devilman Sprint Triathlon

Submitted by Bruce on March 16, 2010 – 12:02 pmNo Comment

Tri-Athlete Endurance TrainingI feel like Protein Extreme Energy & GSH Ignite have really become an important integral part of my program. I can’t imagine being able to recover and remain injury free at my age without the support of these products. Last Monday I came down with a head cold, which under “normal” circumstances would have knocked me out for at least 2-3 days, but I was able to complete all of my workouts except one run of a double session (it was raining and snowing and windy out and i just couldn’t face it with a cold…:-)

So far this season (knock wood!!!) I am completely injury free. I think that’s partially because I have been able to strength train more effectively to protect my joints and also because my joints just seem to “feel” better.

I am just starting my 9th week of a 12 week “base” training program. The last 2 weeks were pretty intense and this is a “recovery” week which I’m really happy to have! I have been experimenting with the Adrenal Reboot and am hoping that will help me over the hump. I’m also liking the GSH-Ignite a lot as an addition to my program. What little evidence I have so far indicates that I am indeed “stronger” than I was at the same time last year. I seem to be much stronger in the water especially. Also, on the bike this morning in an 8 mile aerobic TT, I took a full 30 seconds off my time from last year.

My first real test will be the NJ Devilman Sprint Triathlon, first weekend in May, which is a setup for my 2 biggest races of the year: Eagleman 2nd weekend in June and NYC Triathlon, 3rd weekend in July.

I will probably do some more tri’s after that, but my focus will start to be on completing the Boston Marathon as part of my 60th birthday celebration.
