Why You Should Train Explosively
New research from Loughborough University in England suggests that workouts using explosive muscle contractions may be a more effective way to increase muscle strength than traditional weight training. Explosive weight training is different from traditional methods of weight training that emphasize slow and controlled movements with sustained muscle contraction.
The Weight-Loss Plateau Breaker
Until now, weight loss has been a breeze. You’ve experienced six to nine months of success with the Isagenix System, and you feel great. But lately your progress has stalled, and it has taken longer than usual to drop even a few pounds, even though you’re following your system correctly.
Athletes: There’s No Such Thing as a Perfect Diet
Too often athletes go overboard when trying to eat healthfully. They may put themselves under strict calorie limits, cut out certain ingredients, or even avoid entire food groups in the hopes of reaching their performance goals.
Power Napping for Brain Power
Napping may be thought of as being unproductive and lazy, but it’s one of the most effective ways to restore your brain’s power. Scientific studies have found that napping can restore wakefulness, promote learning, boost memory, reverse the hormonal impact of a night of poor sleep, and reduce stress.
How to Build Muscle With Isagenix
The actual size of your muscle comes down to a simple equation called “protein turnover,” which is the sum of muscle breakdown and synthesis. When you deprive your body of dietary protein and stop providing a weight-bearing stimulus, you have a negative protein balance, leading to the breakdown of muscle (1).
Science Just Made Creatine an Even Bigger Deal for Strength and Power
When it comes to the type of scientific studies that are published, not all are created equal. At Isagenix, we know a good study when we see it. And a great study just came out on creatine.
