SNI: What is the single athletic accomplishment that you are most proud of? Sonja: If you had asked me this a month ago I would have said qualifying and participating in the the Olympic Trials (1500m) in 2000. But March 4th I set a new Masters World Record in the women’s Indoor Mile running 4:44.81 at Virgnia Tech. I am most proud of that performance because I feel I am proving to myself and hopefully others that age is not [...]

by Monica Mollica Most supplements are used for one specific outcome, for example fat loss, muscle growth or general health promotion. However, there are a few exceptions. Fish oil is one of them.

Now let’s take a look at the potential application of fish oil for those of us who are interested in muscle growth… [...]

By Nicole Genarella We have all heard it………You are going to be on a sugar high! As kids we used to indulge in sugar, much to our parents dismay and then there we were……bouncing off the walls with enough energy to run multiple marathons in the evening. But is that really true? Does Sugar provide you with unfounded energy in small bursts? I have to admit I always thought that theory was true until I started clean eating and removed [...]

By Monica Mollica. In discussions about dieting, a topic that often comes up is that of “cheating”; is it good or bad to cheat once in a while during a diet? In order to answer this question appropriately, it is necessary to look at both the quantitative and qualitative aspects of dieting, and the physiological and psychological responses they each elicit. Dieting – what are we really talking about? The dictionary definition of “diet” and “dieting” is “to eat and drink [...]

By Jacqueline Rocke. Some things are simply irresistible, especially when Will Power is on vacation. Now everything is permissible, but not everything is beneficial. That’s actually a bible passage found in the Corinthians that can be applied to many areas of life but let’s face it, if it tastes good and it feels good you might as well consider yourself a bug flying straight into a zapper. Carb habits are hard to break. The cravings take over and for a [...]

By Brooke Kugler, M.S., CISSN. Fueling mind and muscle go hand in hand. What an athlete consumes is just as important as when it’s consumed. Regardless of your goals—if you’re looking to shed some pounds, gain some muscle mass, increase energy levels, amp up your workout, or tweak your competition prep—proper nutrient timing gives you that power! An intense, sweaty workout contributes only about 20% to your peak athletic success. Food holds the weight of the remaining 80 percent. Obtaining [...]

By Brian St. Pierre, CSCS, CISSN. Well Everybody Knows – Everybody knows that the first rule of a post-training shake is that it has to be fast. You must drink it as soon as you are done or you won’t get lean. You must drink the fastest protein on earth with only the fastest carbs, no fiber or fat allowed! This usually entails people drinking whey protein, either in the form of isolates or hydrolysates, because concentrates are just too [...]

Dietary supplement companies and the food industry spend millions to reach resistance trainers—often with exaggerated marketing messages—while health practitioners continue to counsel athletes that their interest in protein is misguided and even dangerous. There appears to be a disconnect between scientists and almost everyone else in sports nutrition. With so much conflicting information, it’s difficult to know who to believe. With contributions from the world’s foremost experts, Dietary Protein and Resistance Exercise delivers the uncut scientific truth about the role [...]

By Alan Aragon (Note: this article was originally posted at: www.wannabebig.com ) Introduction A longstanding belief in fitness circles is that the body can only use a certain amount of protein per meal, and the excess is either oxidized or excreted. The ballpark range thrown around is 20-30 grams, with 30 grams being perhaps the most common figure. This guideline has led many trainees to go through the pains of consuming multiple doses of protein throughout the day, banking that [...]
