in these few words, or really believe, how my body
has changed with Herbalife Sports Nutrition Products.
As an ex-professional sportsman, national coach
and holder of a degree in sports science, I thought
I knew all about my body and how to train and optimise
it. My strength, endurance and speed have all made
huge leaps forward, while my recovery times instantly
went through the floor"

NUTRITION TIMING
- Sports people and their coaches
have spent much of their time focusing on two aspects
of sports nutrition - quantity (how much food the
athlete is consuming and quality (the type of nutrient,
such as carbohydrate, protein or fat). Now, researchers
have confirmed what bodybuilders and strength athletes
have known for years - the fact that
nutrient timing also makes a big difference
to gains in performance. |

immediate fuel (carbohydrates)and helps spare the stored
fuel in muscles (muscle glycogen).

What
is the difference between these products and other supplements
available from the chemist or supermarket? We're
seeing a gradual erosion of the nutritional value of food,
in everything from the vitamin C content of oranges through
to the zinc and copper levels in corns and other grains."
See a comparison
of nutrients here.
"Science shows that proper nutrition
at the cellular level is at least as important to both
health and athletic performance as strength training,
cardiovascular training, and recovery time. In fact,
it’s the foundation for everything else. When you’ve
trained as hard as you can, supplementing your diet with
nutrients designed specifically to boost muscle growth,
recovery, circulation, energy efficiency, and resilience
of muscle fibers and connective tissue make all the
difference."

AFTER
Within the first 30 minutes
of completing your workout, drink
Formula 1
mixed in juice/water. Don't miss the WINDOW!
This simply means that we have a "30 MINUTE
WINDOW when our fuel tanks-our muscles-are most
receptive towards being refilled.
You've trained and you now
need to repair the muscle fibres with protein.
Adequate, high quality protein assists muscle
cells in repairing themselves. 30 -120 mins
after exercise. Drink
Formula 1
mixed in a protein-rich beverage (cow’s milk, soy
milk or yogurt). So you have both a plant based
protein and milk based protein source. Or eat a
Protein Bar.
For added protein for muscle build, add the
Formula 3 Protein Supplement
Powder to a Formula 1 shake. Are you
getting the
right protein
intake? See example
of
usage depending
on the type of exercise.

amino acids to fatigued muscles post-anaerobic exercise.`

RECOVERY SUPPLEMENTS
So you you breathe in more oxygen than the average
person and therefore you generate more free radicals.
Increase your intake of fresh seasonal foods and include
a powerful antioxidant supplement such as Herbalife 24
Hydrate on a daily
basis which provides antioxidant
protection to help protect the body against free
radical damage and boost immunity during and after
physical exercise. Antioxidants
help to reduce muscle cell damage by removing lactic
acid from muscles more quickly and neutralising
free radicals. The benefits are reduced recovery
times (average person takes 48-72 hrs to recover
from exercise!!), and an increased immune system.
Excessive free radical activity prematurely ages
the body, so as an athlete ensure that you are get
enough antioxidants in your diet. For more
info on the impact of free radicals

specialist products, such as the Herbal Aloe
drink for runners tummy, and Xtra Cal for striong
healthy bones. |
