Get lean with fish oil?!
Posted by Josh Tanzola on Sunday, March 7, 2010,
A number of supplements are great for packing on muscle. However, if you want to get lean and mean protein is great. You are more likely to get a leaner mid section with whey protein, and not one full of sugar (Myofusion is one of my favorites since it is sugar and aspartame free). Whey protein enhances fat-burning and decreases the manufacture of fat by the liver. Something simpler? try ingesting fish oil to enhance the efficiency of leptin. Leptin is a protein hormone with important effects... Continue reading ...

Intervals
Exciting new discoveries by biomedical researchers in the areas of health and anti-aging have begun to usher in a new paradigm in fitness training. Research shows that high-intensity, anaerobic workouts that include the short-burst, get-you-out-of-breath, sprinting types of exercise, will make your body release significant amounts of the most powerful "fitness hormone" in your body - growth hormone, or HGH.
As children, HGH makes us grow taller. When we reach our full height, however, this hor... Continue reading ...

READING FOOD LABELS
Posted by Josh Tanzola on Tuesday, August 11, 2009,
On food labels, they base the percentages on a 2,000-calorie adult diet. So looking at the label above for two crackers, a grownup would see that they provide less than 1 gram of fiber, only 3% of the person’s daily needs. So that means he or she would have to eat other foods to get 100% of the fiber needed each day. Similarly, the person would see that the crackers provide nothing toward the daily goals for vitamin A, vitamin C, calcium, or iron.Food labels aren’t ideal for kids because t... Continue reading ...
