Get the Most from Your Workout!
You work hard, you play hard, and you are dedicated to achieving your goals. You believe
that wellness is a choice, not the luck of the draw. You know that the way you feel about
yourself guides your own actions and affects the lives of those you care about. You recognize
your strengths and weaknesses and act accordingly. You're capable. Unstoppable. A woman
of the times….
And sometimes you'd like a little help...
The busier your life becomes, the more important it is to stay fit and in shape. Studies
show that physical activity is the single most important factor in a healthy lifestyle. Being
in shape helps you cope with daily pressures, elevates your mood, and cuts your risk for
heart disease, diabetes, many cancers, and other degenerative diseases.
As beneficial as exercise is for you, there is a dark side: Intense exercise increases
your body's production of free radicals* — volatile molecules that negatively impact
the health of your muscles, heart, liver, brain, and other tissues and organs. No one can
tell the precise point at which this over production occurs, only that it does. Gradually
increasing the physical demands put on your body, coupled with antioxidant supplementation
can help prevent free radical damage.
If you're feeling tired and weak after a workout, it could be that you're overtraining.
Catabolism (breakdown of tissue) is another factor to be considered when developing your
fitness regimen. Overtraining can cause the muscles to diminish and weaken rather than grow.
Again, no one knows what constitutes overtraining although sports experts now believe that
training one body part more than once a week constitutes overtraining in some people. Overtraining
can make you fatigued, listless and depressed: hardly the result you'd expect from working
out!
Introducing Recovery

radical production and breakdown of tissues. Nutricol®

decrease muscle breakdown and stabilize the joints and other
structures impacted by physical activity. By decreasing lactic
acid build-up, Recovery®

A Word About Sports Injuries
Sidelined by a sports/training
injury? It happens to us all at one time or another, however
carefully we work out. Recovery®

your body with the substances needed for healthy tissue repair.
A bonus: Maintaining your daily dosage may help reduce the
likelihood of further injuries.
