1241828384Deal For A Day

If you don't visit www.wheycheap.com on a daily basis, you should.  This site is actually  bodybuilding.com's outlet store.  It's a site that features a different product, every 24 hours, at a vastly discounted price. Often they sell out within hours. There's no predicting what's going to be up there or available on any specific day, and many different supplement companies are featured.

Saturday the 9th the featured deal was Nutrabolics  Iso-MRP, 2 lbs, chocolate milk flavor, for $22.99 (MSRP, or as they refer to it, "girlyman price", is $49.99).  This day's deal was 54% off retail!  We all know there are many websites selling supplements at a discount, but this was a great price; about what you'd pay late in the afternoon on the last day of the Arnold Classic Expo.

From the 5/4/09 issue of ESPN: The Magazine's "NFL Insider" column, comes this line:

"Jaguars QB David Garrard ... since enduring 42 sacks, third most in the league, has added more workouts and cut out carbs this off-season. He's now 20 pounds lighter..."

For those who continue to think ketogenic or low-carb diets don't have a role in the athletic world, how much evidence do you need?  Professional football is one of the most violent and taxing sports on the planet, yet NFL players go low-carb.  Nice!

Chlorella: The Forgotten Nutrient!

As athletes we are constantly being bombarded with ads for the ‘latest and greatest' new supplements. It seems that not a month goes by without some new ‘super product' being announced that is guaranteed to boost muscle growth, increase testosterone levels and enhance your energy levels. However, in the midst of all the frenzy, some ‘old school' nutrients slip by completely unnoticed and are given little or no attention as all the focus is placed on the ‘next great thing'. One such nutrient is Chlorella and it deserves your attention for a number of reasons.

Stuff I Like: 4-27-09

Jungle-warfare-newFriday night I enjoyed dinner with a number of large people, including Kevin Tomasini (winner of last year's NPC Excalibur and currently sponsored by Nutrabolics), and Phil Heath.  Demetrius Alecos, promoter of the Fox Valley Bodybuilding and Figure Show, brought us all together on the eve of the event. My purpose in mentioning this isn't to tell you what Phil Heath ate for an off-season dinner meal (spaghetti and meatballs), what Kevin ate (he's too big to see around), or what I had for my weekly re-feed meal one week into a serious ketogenic diet (sun-dried tomato pizza with chicken breast and two glasses of red wine). Rather, I want to suggest that Phil Heath is one of the nicest IFBB bodybuilders to arrive in on the scene in a real long time. He's remarkable with fans, always smiling, personable, treating everyone as if they're special.  Sadly, many pro's are smart enough to be good with the fans.
