Bodybuilding and Supplements

I was first introduced to SizeOn Creatine by Gaspari Nutrition from a personal trainer friend of mine while working out in our local gym. I had been off creatine for a while and asked him if he knew of any good creatine products that may have come out recently. Without hesitation he highly recommended SizeOn by Gaspair Nutrition as he was using it himself and for very good reason…

Gaspari Nutrition SizeOn Creatine is the first, and as far as I am aware of, the only Creatine product at this time that is made out of Creatine Gluconate. Based on both the literature as well as my own personal experience I would venture to say that Creatine Cluconate will probably turn out to be the most effective creatine bodybuilding supplement ever created. Creatine Gluconate is actually the ionic salt of a creatine ion combined together with a glucose ion so SizeON gets absorbed into the muscles much the same way as glucose does.

Most other creatine delivery systems previously used to get creatine into the muscle use only a single stage delivery system. For example: Creatine Ethyl Ester (CEE) uses the ethyl ester to deliver creatine but when the molecule splits into ions, you are left with both creatine (good) and ethyl alcohol (bad). There is no secondary affect to force the creatine into the muscle cells faster or more completely.  However,  with Creatine Gluconate the glucose is the delivery system making it an extremely effective bodybuilding supplement.  SizeOn is first absorbed into the bloodstream and then  when the ion split occurs, you end up with creatine and glucose. The glucose then causes an insulin spike that literally pushes the creatine quickly and completely into the muscle cells. This 2 stage delivery system of SizeON is unique among all other creatine bodybuilding supplements available.

SizeOn mixes very well into water, tastes great, can be combined with other products (for example, I mix in some Liquid Egg Whites Protein and drink it during my workouts) and more importantly, it’s likely to be the most effective and powerfully anabolic creatine ever made. I have noticed greater pumps, strength, and endurance both in the gym as well as during rigorous physical activities such as riding my mountain bike. There is absolutely no bloating or digestive problems and results are almost immediately noticable. If you’d like to check out SizeON Creatine by Gaspari Nutrition just Click here. I’m a user myself and I highly recommend SizeOn without reservation.

A cooling down period should follow any workout. The simplest way to cool down is to slow down to a crawl in whatever you are doing. If running then slow to a walk, if you are fast walking slow down to a slow but steady pace.

If you abruptly end your workout, your heart continues to send extra blood to the muscles for a while. Because your muscles have suddenly stopped moving, there is no adequate means of sending blood back to the heart.

Your blood can then pool in your muscles with inadequate blood left to nourish your other vital organs. Without enough blood to the brain, you might pass out.

You might have seen U.S. Marines or Buckingham Palace guards keel over while at attention. This results from blood being sent to the legs. It pools there and has no round-trip ticket back to the heart.

With a large amount of blood pooled in the legs, there is not enough blood returning to deliver an adequate amount of oxygen to the brain, and fainting results.

By tapering your exercise off slowly, your muscles continue to pump blood from the extremities back into your main circulatory system.

If you suddenly stop vigorous exercise and come quickly to a complete rest, you may experience muscle cramps. Muscles, especially if untrained, should come to a halt gradually. Stiffness as well as cramps may be reduced by the slow cooldown from your workout.

Here’s another practical reason for a slow cool-down period. If you jump into a shower immediately after a workout, you have not allowed sufficient time for the excess heat your body has retained to be radiated into the surrounding atmosphere.

Your body temperature will remain above normal until this excess heat has been dissipated. Too hot a shower prevents loss of heat. So by all means make sure you’ve cooled down before your after workout shower.

Follow these after workout tips to make sure you cool down sufficintly after your exercise session.
