Low fat manufactured products are destroyers of energy. Most health foods contain very low fat or no fat at all. Problem is, instead of fats, they are packed with sugar, or worse high Fructose Corn Syrup. This includes: fat-free fruit yogurt, energy bars, granola bars, light- cereal and protein bars. These make you FAT! And SICK!

Why? Immediately after eating foods that contains sugar or high-fructose corn syrup, your blood sugar hits the roof. The pancreas goes into emergency mode to rectify this, by secreting insulin. It tends to secrete more that your body actually needs...just in case, which drops your blood sugars too low, making you feel very tired, AND crave more sugar!

All this sugar is converted to FAT. It's a vicious cycle.

Instead:

Substitute all sugar and high fructose corn syrup products with Xylitol, Splenda or Stevil.
Replace simple carbs with complex carbs. Eat sweet potato instead of potato, have brown rice instead of white rice, have whole grain bread instead of white bread.

The first 5-6 days may be a bit difficult as your blood sugar levels out. But persevere, you will find a spike in energy that just lasts and lasts.

Muscle Building Protein

A muscle building exercise program increases the metabolic requirement for certain amino acids,which serve as building blocks for stress hormones and energy compounds, and are required in extra amounts during times of high-energy demand and extreme mental and physical stress.

Insufficient nutrients in the muscles, means that the muscle goes into glycogen depletion, severely impacting performance and recovery, and even resulting in muscle loss.

To ensure that we are both providing the right type of muscle energy and at the right time we need to understand:
