Plyometrics are training techniques used by athletes in all types of sports to increase strength and explosiveness. Plyometrics consists of a rapid stretching of a muscle (eccentric action) immediately followed by a concentric or shortening action of the same muscle and connective tissue. The stored elastic energy within the muscle is used to produce more force than can be provided by a concentric action. Researchers have shown that plyometric training‚ when used with a periodized strength-training

that proteins are the building blocks of muscles and that certain proteins can also serve as energy-releasing enzymes within muscle cells). How can carbs conserve protein and also boost protein synthesis? For years‚ exercise scientists have reckoned that the basic mechanism underlying carbohydrate’s protein-helping properties is simply that ample carbs give muscles enough energy to stimulate protein production (and also provide enough fuel so that muscles don’t need to break down protein to provide

build muscle strength. Unlike protein‚ creatine does not help to repair muscles or build muscle but allows the body to have more energy to work harder. Creatine is naturally found in the body and in foods such as seafood and red meats.1 Many studies have been conducted in order to scientifically show whether or not creatine really works. A common misconception is that creatine stimulates muscle growth. Creatine is not a steroid‚ however‚ it is a useful supplement that can help to increase muscle mass

Training Introduction Weight training is more than developing a sculpted body. Strong and healthy muscles are important for all activities performed throughout the day. Weight training helps with mundane tasks such as housecleaning‚ mowing the lawn and shoveling snow. It also aids in the body’s efficient use of oxygen‚ placing less strain on the heart. Good posture is the result of strong muscles being able to support the rest of the body’s mass 24 hours a day. In addition‚ weight training is useful
