Health: OVER-TRAINING

OVER-TRAINING

HIT Progress Reports

Hello HIT'ers,

This week I'd like to discuss repparttar topic of over-training. One of my new clients had repparttar 115451 pleasure of increasing his strength some 40% - since his last Chest (upper-body) workout. Note, his last chest workout was about 10 days ago!!

My client is new to Heavy Duty/High Intensity Training; however, he IS a good student and has taken repparttar 115452 time to listen and grasp these new principles of exercise. By doing so, he has relatively been successful in EVERY workout.

Unfortunately, though, I haven't had repparttar 115453 same success with another new client of mine. Somehow he had to learn repparttar 115454 hard way. Lately, he has not had ANY strength gains! Why? Well, he has repparttar 115455 notion that he must workout at least 3-4X a week (as most people think) and wants to train before he even recovers from his previous workout. Big mistake!

Now, one must realize that HD/HIT training is not like any other type of training. Most people in repparttar 115456 gym train with a lot of volume: 3-5 sets, 10-12 reps, with about 20+ exercises @ low intensity. Their workouts usually last about 45-60 minutes in duration. HD/HIT workouts, however, consist of 1 set to failure with 5 or 6 exercises - ranging from 12-20 minutes in duration!! With a greater stress on repparttar 115457 whole physiological system. Big difference, mind you.

A Nutritionist's Insight on Arthritis by Carol Koester

Here is some of my knowledge about nutrition's role in ARTHRITIS from past experiences. I am speaking as a nutritionist, not a medical specialist. Most arthritics I have dealt with experienced marked relief usually within a short time after enriching their diets with GLYCONUTRIENTS, along with PHYTOGENENS in a complex that includes additional herbs that assist repparttar body in diffusing pain after strenuous exercise or in conditions where there is chronic pain. For best results, balancing all four systems of repparttar 115450 body speeds recovery time, so support from PHYTONUTRIENTS and FOOD-MATRIX TYPE VITAMINS AND MINERALS is also important. These nutrients play repparttar 115451 following support roles in repparttar 115452 body:

GLYCONUTRIENTS: immune system modulation, either upward or downward as needed; anti-inflammatory; anti-viral, anti-bacterial, anti-fungal, and delivery system for all other nutrients.

PHYTOGENENS: hormonal balance, fat metabolism, bone metabolism, stress management, energy levels, mental clarity, help in building new nerve pathways.

PHYTOGENENS IN A SPORTS FORMULA: all of repparttar 115453 above, plus pain management and recovery from physical stress.

PHYTONUTRIENTS: help with repairs in repparttar 115454 body of bone, muscles, tendons, tissues, nerves; protect against tumors; aid body's host defense system.

FOOD MATRIX TYPE VITAMINS AND MINERALS: nutrients that repparttar 115455 body can recognize as food and utilize 100% (instead of repparttar 115456 average 7% for non-food forms of vitamins and minerals); act as a catalyst for other nutrients in repparttar 115457 body.

When relief of arthritis symptoms doesn't begin to happen soon for someone I always investigate to see if perhaps they might have an allergy to dairy products. That can imitate a lot of repparttar 115458 arthritic symptoms! My nephew was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis, but when he got off of all dairy his symptoms all left, and they discovered that he did not have arthritis, actually. Also, a few are allergic to a lot of grains such as wheat and corn, and that needs to be explored also. This can be done easily by leaving off all those foods for two weeks, and see if it makes a difference. If there is just a slight difference, than taking care to eat those offending foods only once in four days can be a big help, and they don't necessarily need to give them up permanently. Over time, adequate amounts of glyconutritionals in repparttar 115459 body usually help correct or reduce most allergies.
