NFL Player Supports Tunguska Blast!

As a former NFL player, I am very mindful of what products I put into my body. There are many products that claim to be the solution to your dietary or health needs. The fact of the matter is that if we ate a proper diet consistently, our bodies would not break down as quickly as it does, and we would not be dealing with the health issues America is faced with today. If people will take the time to educate themselves on what their body needs nutritionally based upon their age and medical condition, they would know what to eat, how much water to drink, how much exercise to do, and what supplements to take.

Going through this process is why I chose to endorse Tunguska Blast. Tunguska Blast is a powerful dietary supplement developed as a result of the miracle of 1908 in Tunguska, Russia. What makes Tunguska Blast special is the fact that it has 10 adaptagens!

An adaptagen is a substance that helps the body's response, on the cellular level, to various stresses put upon it. This allows the body to help regulate many of the body's systems: the immune system, nervous system, endocrine system, cardiovascular system and mental functions.

The effects one can detect are an increase in mental clarity and physical energy, enhanced immunity and resistance to disease, reduced recovery time after exercise (particularly significant for endurance athletes), improved metabolism, and more restful sleep.
This antioxidant-rich infusion has the power to increase mental clarity, boost the immune system, and enhance physical performance.

As an athlete, to be able to take something that is 100% natural, and it helps my physical performance and reduces my recovery time is a tremendous benefit. Especially when steroid use is out of control, here is a natural product that can benefit athletes of all ages.

The Pain Free Workout - Part 2

Starting a workout routine after taking a break can be a challenging task. Between making the decision to change your normal schedule, and to make the investment in the home gym or local gym, people tend to stay stuck in the "I'm going to do it" mode. Unfortunately, most of those people never start working out, or if they do, they are quickly reminded on why they don't work out all the time when they wake up sore the next day. I am giving you some tips that I have learned over my NFL career that will help you get started at a pace that you will be able to maintain.

In a previous article we discussed the first tip: Don't do to much on the first day. It took you a while to get out of shape, and it will take a while to get back in shape. You will not be able to get your body back after just one workout. Take your time and be patient.

Tip #2: Remember to warm up!

Too many people make the mistake of going to the gym and starting their workout without warming up first. Building your heart rate, and breaking a sweat is the first thing you should do when working out. In all my years as an athlete, I would never expect to play a game without first warming up before the game. We did not do it because it looked cool, but rather it was necessary to put our bodies in a position for the stress we were about to put our bodies through.

The Importance of Warming Up

I'll never forget the first time I warmed up to play a game at Candlestick Park, in San Francisco, CA. To jog around the field where so many memorable players played like Joe Montana, Roger Craig, and Dwight Clark was remarkable. To be able to look across the field and see Jerry Rice, Terrell Owens, and Steve Young was a feeling I will never forget. I was preparing to play at the highest level, against some of the best athletes on the planet. But it all started with WARMING UP! I could not expect to do the things I needed to do in the game unless I got my body ready to perform.

Even though you may not to getting ready to play a NFL football game, you still must understand the importance of warming up and getting a good sweat going before you start your workout. You need to dedicate at least 10 minutes for warming up. If your schedule is tight, you must find a way to make sure you warm up first and cut something else out of your routine. I recommend starting on a tread mill, or a stationary bike to get the blood flowing in your body and to get your heart rate up. This will help your body to be ready to handle your workout. Your muscles will be loose and flexible, and you will find that your results will improve over the course of time.

4 Tips to Choosing the Right Supplement

In today's competitive supplement market, the question is not to convince someone to take a supplement, but rather to convince them to take your supplement. With that in mind, many people don't know where to start to determine which supplements they should take. The task can appear intimidating because no one wants to invest in a product that doesn't work, or that would be wrong for them. Here are some things to consider when choosing the right supplement.

Tip #1: What is your diet?

Your diet is the foundation of support for your body. Everything your body does, or is able to do, is directly linked to your diet. If you are not eating your daily portions of fruits, and vegetables, then the first thing you make find is a quality whole food multi-vitamin. This will give your body the necessary fuel to compensate for not eating a proper balanced diet every day. Regardless of how educated people may be, I know very few who can say they eat a balanced whole food diet every day, for every meal. Because of this, it is likely that every person you meet needs a quality whole food/organic multi-vitamin.

What good does it do someone to take any other supplement, whether it be for weight loss, or energy and stamina if their body is deprived of the vital nutrients necessary to support the body? Before taking any other product, every one must make sure they faithfully take a multi-vitamin as a foundation to their health.

Tip #2: What is your medical condition?

Do you have diabetes, or kidney disease? Are you getting treated for any disease or illness? Asking yourself some basic questions will put you on track to making sure you are taking something that will support your current medical condition. You will also be able to ask informed questions about the product you are considering to see if there are any known conflicts with your medical condition. Some products, because of the ingredients may conflict with your current medical condition. So the more you know about yourself, the more you will be able to ask questions to make sure the product will not only help you, but most importantly not cause any problems for you. A person on chemotherapy, for example, should not take any product that will boost their immune system, as it will work against their current treatment.

Tip #3: What is your goal?

Why are you purchasing this supplement? Do you need energy or stamina? Do you need stress relief, or mental clarity? What do you need? If you can't answer that question, don't buy anything! Why take something if you don't know why you are taking it? You should take products that you know are providing your body the necessary support that it needs based upon your medical condition. If your body needs help in regulating its blood sugar, then find a product that will naturally help your body do it, without any complications to your current medical condition. Having knowledge of your bodies needs, and focusing on your fitness goals will point you like a compass to the right product for you.

Tip $4: Read the label!

Most people just listen to a sales pitch, without reading what is in the food or supplement that they put in their body. I know most people don't know what they are looking at, but that should not stop you from looking. With the information at our finger tips with the Internet, all anyone has to do is research the ingredients on-line to find out what it does for the body. Your doctor or health care provider should also be able to help in explaining what is in the product you are considering.

Remember, if you know your diet, know your medical condition, know your goals, and read the label, you will be well on your way to achieving your health and fitness goals. Go to the doctor and be informed about your health, and then provide your body the necessary products to live a higher quality life.

Sports & Suppliments: What you need to know!

Sports & Suppliments
Work Hard...Play Fair

With the news of Roger Clemens and Barry Bonds on the front page of news, there has been much to say about the role of suppliments and sports. As a former NFL player I can honestly say that there is no question that anyone who plays sports, at any level, needs to have a quality suppliment to take to support their body.

The question is, "What should you take"? This is where most people go to their buddy or local store and ask someone who never played professional athletics to educate them on what they need. Too many people don't know what questions to ask to determine what product to purchase. If you are an active person who plays sports, or excercises regularly, you need to be on some sort of suppliment to support your body and allow it to heal and recover quickly.

The key word is "support". If you are taking something that your body can not breakdown efficiently, then you are wasting your money. The best thing for a person to take is something WHOLE FOOD and ORGANIC. Your body will be able to breakdown the suppliment and you will be able to see measurable improvement in your recovery time and stamina.

Steriods or other manufactured suppliments, or performance enhancers will provide and short-term benefit, but will cause damaging effects to your body over the course of time. Also, taking an over abundance of protein drinks will only cause problems for your kidney if you are not on any type of "probiotic" to assist your body in processing and digesting food.

A serious athlete should also take an adaptogen. Adaptogens help the body adjust on the cellular level to the various stresses that are put on it. Adaptogens also support the circulatory system, immune system in resistance to disease, as well as reduces recovery time after a workout!

Americal Idol Gives Back

For a second year in a row American Idol and many around the world did something very special during the "Gives Back" special. Actors and artists came out in support of the poor, homeless, and forgotten. It was a wonderful showing demonstration of what we as a society can do, if we want to make a change.

Despite rising gas prices, unemployment, and the threat of a recession, America was still able to rise millions of dollars to help people across the world. Seeing demonstrations like this proves that we do not have to live in a world that is full of hurting, poor, homeless, sick and forgotten people. We can change the world if we will just for a moment forget about the drama in our own lives and remember that there are people around us that need our help and support.

It is not good enough to simply see a need and acknowledge that someone should do something about it. We all must take it upon ourselves to do what we can to help someone, somewhere, somehow. If everyone did this, and stopped being self-centered, we will see a world that we are all proud to live in.

After compassion is an attribute that God has given all of us to share His love for those around us. There are people praying everyday for help...Will you answer someone prayer today?
