The purpose of this article is to provide information and its application leading to the development and maintenance of explosive power . I want to share the proceeding information with the expectation that you will be able the utilize it in your own training philosophy and/or reinforce your confidence in what you already know. Lets talk about the process!
Determining key prerequisites:
a) Increase mobility and stability
b) Creating a foundation of Maximum Strength
c) Nutritional Support

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!

It’s almost too good to be true – a product that helps build muscle, repair tissue at an accelerated pace, is eight times stronger than whey protein, and helps you recover faster from your workouts! All this plus helping athletes and bodybuilders give their immune systems the boost they need.

To summarize the benefits in bullet point form, the benefits of Protein Extreme Energy include:

* boosts and strengthens the immune system
* gets more amino acids into muscle cells throughout the body
* promotes muscle tissue growth, regeneration, and strengthening
* initiates the transport of nucleic acids into the cell nucleus, where the DNA resides
* provides the raw material needed to repair damage to the DNA and initiate cell division
* supports reduction of Pro-inflammatory cytokines
* helps in post-exercise recovery
* beneficial in repairing extreme muscle rips

Nourishing the adrenals alone is not enough, however – stimulating the adrenals without opening the surrounding pathways of the nervous system (or, from the viewpoint of Chinese Medicine, the meridians) is like increasing the output of an electricity generator in a home with faulty wiring. Sooner or later, the whole thing will short circuit, and you may end up burning out your generator (adrenals). This is how an aggressive adrenal stimulant such as caffeine or sugar can eventually drain your entire system.

Healthy cells are the building blocks to a healthy body, and translate into more core energy and better sports performance. When your cells aren’t functioning properly, metabolic wastes accumulate and can cause inflammation, poor nutrient assimilation and other sorts of complications that impact your health.

Immediately after the race I was feeling pretty bad, but after a few hours I went out to eat with my family and then got in my car and drove back to NYC. The next day I worked a full day and was a little rough, but by Tuesday I was feeling great and today [Wednesday – 3 days after the marathon] I went for a bike ride and felt like I was completely recovered from the marathon, I had an amazing amount of energy.

Energy level is pretty high. Normally yesterday would have been the end of the 2nd week in a 3 week cycle (2 weeks of build/1 recovery…”normal” protocol for an athlete my age), but I actually feel well enough to see what it would be like to try a 4 week cycle of 3 weeks of build/1 recovery, just like the good old days. I’ll know more after my tempo run tomorrow, but so far, I’m really impressed with my recovery.

I’m currently training for my 7th marathon and the most remarkable change has been in the recovery after hard runs. It allows me to keep up with a young Peruvian girl that I’d normally be trailing behind at this point in our training!
