No More Hitting The Wall

What is the best way to get top-performing results in the gym?

 

The answer is simple: More.

 

More Weights

More Reps

More Intensity

More Stress

More Adaptations

The only problem is that we all have a certain limit to the amount of stress that we can put on our bodies before we begin to break down and “hit the wall”. We must be smart about the way that we push our bodies in a manner that allows us to not only maintain our hard-earned results but push beyond and break new personal goals. We have consulted our formula experts and put together a few supplements that help combat three of the main challenges that limit us in our workouts. Joint pain or discomfort, low energy and focus, and the overall endurance to continue through a workout.
The first of these supplements is Joyful Joints. Why? Because it keeps you healthy and your joints feeling better. You’re going to have a hard time seeing results if you can’t get to the gym because your knees hurt or your shoulder is injured. An article published by the British Journal of Sports Medicine outlines degenerative joint disease, more commonly known as wear-and-tear, in weightlifters. The article concludes that with proper training and nutrition “Degenerative joint disease is not an inevitable consequence of long term weight-lifting”. With a combination of Turmeric, Bromelain, and Hyaluronic Acid, Joyful Joints helps to reduce inflammation and keep your joints lubricated and protected.

Next, let’s address the issue of simply running out of steam during a workout. Low energy, lack of focus… enter a pre-workout.  A Pre-Workout may seem like a cheat on the outside, but we on the inside know this is a sure-proof way to gain energy and focus that may have our bodies wanting to quit before our brains are done. Let us look at Wild Thing.  Wild Thing is a top-ranked pre-workout due to a mixture of BCAA’s, Creatine, and Beta-Alanine, all of which will allow you to produce more ATP (muscle energy), work longer at a higher intensity, and improve recovery times.
What Can Wild Thing Do For You?
  • Help Increase Your Energy
  • Help Increase Your Focus
  • Help Increase Your Strength During Workouts
  • Help Increase Your Muscle Pumps
  • Help Increase Your Muscle Endurance
  • Help Improve Your Overall Mood
  • Help Accelerate Your Muscle Recovery
  • Help Decrease Your Muscle Fatigue
  • Help Increase Your Muscle Control
  • Help Improve Your Mental Cognition
Finally, we want to take a look at adding a supplementation that is an overall natural endurance booster. PEAK02® is an organic-certified scientifically developed clinically researched combination of six adaptogenic mushrooms grown in the U.S. and is designed to target and revolutionize your workouts. In a more basic sense, it contains adaptogens that have an anti-fatiguing effect on the central nervous system that increases your mental work capacity, especially when in stressful and fatiguing situations, i.e., weightlifting. Additionally, PEAKO2 helps to increase the amount of oxygen that your muscles can use (VO2 max). As you exercise, oxygen reaches your muscles and converts available glucose into ATP, providing your body with the energy it needs to complete your workout. So, whether you’re a weightlifter, runner, cyclist, or triathlete you can benefit from PEAK02.
PEAK02® Highlights/Supports:
  • Train Harder, Longer, & More Intensely
  • Improved Endurance
  • Increased Strength
  • Maximum Power Output
  • Increased Exercise Capacity
  • Improved O2 Uptake and VO2 Max
  • Improved Peak Athletic Performance
  • Increased Oxygen Utilization During Exercise
  • Increases Power and Endurance in Just 7 Days
  • Improves Time to Exhaustion/Don’t Get Exhausted as Quickly

“Hitting the Wall” can plague athletes at all levels of training. We hope you can take these suggestions and burst through that wall and achieve optimal results.
