Nutrition & Supplements

Saturday, April 24th, 2010

Hi Everyone,

It’s almost summertime so I’m changing gears now in my weight training.  After my wedding, I decided to go for size and got back up to around 220 pounds.  In my Kung Fu school, a lot of people were asking me what supplements I used to get my size.  One of my favorite supplements is the creatine called Cell Drive made by JS Nitro.  I also took my fair share of Glutamine and Branched Chain Amino Acids (BCAA’s).

Now that I’m leaning out, I’ve switched to fat loss supplements.  Before and during my workouts, I have been using VPX Meltdown (I really like this one) and at night, I take another fat loss supplement from JS Nitro, Burn Extreme PM.  Since I’m almost out of the Meltdown, I’m probably going to try JS Nitro Burn Extreme (daytime fat burner).  The fat burners have been really good for giving me energy.  I usually take one pill before I go to the gym and another one halfway through my workout before I start my cardio.  I’m also still taking my Glutamine and BCAA’s.  Sherlyn Roy also started me on Vitamin C chewables which have been quite pleasant.

As any trainer will tell you though, bodybuilding supplements only make up part of the regimen.  The other more important part is the nutrition.  To this end, I have cut out my Cherry Coke again and I’m trying to make better choices with my food.  You have no idea how hard it is to cut out my Cherry Coke.  It’s like a drug for me.The one thing I’ve always been terrible about is getting in enough meals throughout the day.  I’ve been working on getting up to 6 to 8 meals a day.  This is to help with my metabolism so my body will burn more fat.

So whatever your goals are, make sure your nutrition is sound and use the sports nutrition supplements to help give you that little extra push!

Thanks for reading!

Honeymoon Shape Part 2!

Thursday, November 5th, 2009

Hi Everyone!

I’m actually writing this blog from the Sandals Royal Bahamian Resort in the Bahamas.  Our blog for the site wasn’t quite working properly and took a little bit of time to fix, so I’m sorry about that.  We’re back up now though and I’m ready to catch you up!

So my last blog was about getting into honeymoon shape.  Here’s what happened…About ten days before the wedding, my then fiancé (now wife) and I were having dinner with Mike O’Hearn (Titan from American Gladiators) and our newest addition to Instructional Fitness Sherlyn Roy.  I was telling them that I wanted to get into shape for the honeymoon.  Mike told me he was getting in shape for a magazine cover shoot (what different lives we lead) and that I was welcome to train with him twice a day.  The first session being at 4:00 am.

From there, my wife Mikela said that she didn’t want to watch me get into better shape than her for the wedding so Sherlyn offered to train her.  So of course, this lead to a competition between my wife and I, and Mike and Sherlyn.  The competition was to see who could get the closest to losing 15 pounds the Thursday before the wedding.

During this time, they designed our diets (the biggest component to fitness), and helped us with our workouts.  Let me tell you, training with Mike O’Hearn is probably one of the most difficult and painful processes I have endured in the gym.  I have trained with Joe, but that was a different process.  Joe doesn’t put a lot of focus on the amount of weight.  He focuses on form and shaping the muscle the way he wants.  Mike however, loves to train for strength and is just a freak of nature.

Anyway, I’m off track.  As I mentioned, I began training twice a day and limited myself to chicken breasts several times a day.  I also was doing about 2 hours of cardio per day.  Mikela was doing weights and about an hour of cardio but missed a couple of times due to the wedding planning process.  We were also both taking two different fat burners.  During the day, we took VPX Meltdown (capsule form) and at night, we took JS Nitro’s Burn Extreme PM.

We were both able to watch the pounds shed off our body, which was a great feeling.  In the end, Mikela managed to lose close to ten pounds which was about a pound more than me, but somehow I still feel like I was the winner. J

So that’s it for now (sorry for rambling)…I got to get back to my honeymoon.  Talk to you all soon!
