I 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…:-)

Some of you may have read the previous article on Shaun McDaniel, the youth from Southside, Queens who’s been training to break the world record in push-ups. Shaun has been taking four Life Health Secrets supplements (Protein Extreme Energy, GSH-Ignite, Maxodin, and Adrenal Re-Boot) for just over a month now, and he’s submitted this testimonial. Thanks Shaun, we’re all rooting for your success!

I am gearing up for the finals of the Women’s Colgate Games to be held at Madison Square Garden on January 30, 2010. Currently, I am in second place in the 55 meter hurdles after 3 weeks of competition. My workouts have become shorter, more powerful track work, including block starts and quick hurdle and sprint drills.
I am continuing to train under the guidance of Coach Johnson. My weight room workouts have become shorter and quicker as well as the peak of my season approaches.

Shaun McDaniel doesn’t eat on his half-hour lunch break. Instead, he spends his time in the basement of the New York thrift store where he works, doing as many push-ups as he can before break-time is over. Unable to afford a gym, it’s also in this dingy, unfinished concrete basement that he trains after work. Shaun slides his feet under clothing racks to do sit-ups. The exposed pipes and staircase become pull-up bars. The fifty-pound boxes of secondhand clothing serve as weights. It’s all part of the training regime Shaun has created for himself with one goal in mind – to get into the Guinness Book of World’s Records.

Lots of anticipation followed me to Week 1 of the Colgate Women’s Indoor Games. I have had this recurring nightmare for years that I either forget my sprint spikes, or that I am late for my race. Well, this week, the meet was running ahead of schedule, so when I arrived, my heart jumped as I saw the hurdles set up and ready to go.

People ask me all the time how they can get the glow.  Well, according to Traditional Chinese Medicine, a vital energy called qi (pronounced chi) circulates throughout our entire body. Qi is the …

FYI, even tho I’m not doing any speed training at all, I ran a 5k “fun run” on Sunday; won my age group with a 21:32 (that’s fast by my standards!!!) and felt great. My marathon was only 5 weeks ago and I am totally recovered and racing…that’s huge!
