Even
if you eat a reasonably healthy diet, your cells may still lack
proper nutrition. Many factors, including irregular dietary habits,
nutrient-depleted foods, stress, digestive disorders and the use of
prescription medication can all interfere with your cells
absorbing the nourishment they need.
What are the challenges in gaining weight?
To
gain weight the cells of our body need to be as fully nourished
as possible. Herbalife allows the cells to grow and repair, and
to perform their functions with the maximum efficiency possible.
This advanced Herbalife diet technology supplies the amino acids,
vitamins, minerals and herbal factors your individual cells require
to function optimally. Once your body's trillions of cells are
nourished in this way, all of your systems can work better, you
feel more energized, your metabolism can perform better, your
digestion is aided and your body achieves a natural state of
balance. What is
the difference between these products and other supplements
available from the chemist or supermarket?

Muscle gain is achieved through 3 components:
5.
Overload training techniques
6.
Adequate recovery time -anti-oxidants
help with recovery
7.
High quality protein. With overload training, the
protein requirement is about 2 grams of protein per kg of
body weight. During the
repairing and recovery phase, which begins immediately
post-exercise and carries over to about a 48 to 72 hour
period, you should consume protein at about 1.5 to 3 hours
post-exercise to assist in muscle fibril repair. Add the
Formula 3 Protein Supplement Powder to your Formula 1 shake
(use milk rather than juice) and consume 90 mins after your
workout.

Success stories
To build muscle you need a large increase in of food
and water intake. You can only build muscle when you
are in “positive mode” i.e. taking in more food than you are
burning up. If you are training hard but not eating enough your
metabolism will take the fuel that it needs from your muscle
cells. Fuel that you want to keep there to build your muscle!
You know when you are in “positive mode” as you will
notice that your training is going well and you feel stronger.
Your weight will start to increase as you are now supplying your
body with the extra “bricks” it needs to build the new muscles.
