Herbalife natural products

December last year I was an overweight ( 89 kg ), not particularly healthy, international business manager. My weight was on the rise and my fitness on the decline. I just could not find a way to mix business travel and health. Then I learnt about Herbalife, and started to use the weight control products, within a few months I had reduced my weight to 79 kg. I have since started phase two of my health plan, building muscle, endurance and all round fitness.

Now I am still an international business manager, but my weight is 80 kg (built muscle, and reduced fat further), magnitudes fitter, very healthy and overflowing with energy and vitality.

1

Step One : Muscles = Fuel Tanks
Rapid response fuel is stored as carbohydrate (muscle glycogen).

Do you ?:   Eat carbohydrate-rich foods before exercise to slow down drain on your fuel tanks

2

Step Two : Optimum Time to Top-Up with Carbohydrates

Do you ?: 
Large meal 4-6 hours before activity
Lighter meal 2-3 hours before activity
Snack Up to one hour before activity

3

Step Three : Keep Your Fuel Topped Up

Do you ?: 
For long duration activities (60 minutes plus), drink fluids with a weak solution of simple carbohydrates

4

Step Four : Make use of your reserve fuel tank

Stored body fat = fuel for long-haul events, although we have a potentially unlimited supply of fuel from stored fat, we can only burn fat as a fuel when combined with carbohydrates

5

Step Five : The importance of fluid

Do you ?: 
Drink fluids at least every 15 minutes.
(Do not wait until you are thirsty)

6

Step Six : Protein for muscle maintenance and muscle growth
Do you ?:   Do you have enough protein in your diet?

You need 1.25 to 1.5 grams per kilogram of body weight (1.25 grams/kg for the ‘ball’ sports and 1.50 grams/kg for the more extreme sports such as marathon running and body building).

7

Step Seven : Protein vs. Carbohydrates

Do you ?: Have the right balance of protein and carbohydrates.
Carbohydrates = instant fuel for the muscles. Protein repairs damaged muscles, maintains muscle mass and increases girth

8

Step Eight : Best time to refuel the tanks (muscles)
Do you ?:   Within 30 minutes of ending exercise, take in easily digestible carbohydrates.

(These are converted to glucose and stored as glycogen, your quick fuel)

9

Step Nine : Reducing recovery time

Do you ?:   Add antioxidant antioxidant nutrients to your diet.
( adequate supplies of protein also helps).

10

Supplementation

Do you ?:   Take in extra multivitamins and minerals.

(Multivitamin and mineral supplement assists the body's chemical reactions, regulatory processes, and forms structures important for athletes who may be susceptible to decreased immune systems due to excessive physical exertion)
