| It doesn't matter
whether you are a top athlete, go the gym, play
competitive sport or simply enjoy an afternoon
walk; we all want to function at our best. This
is however difficult to achieve when feeling low
and run-down because of a lack of vitality. Herbalife
can help by providing supplements for sports nutrition
which can be added to any diet. These sport nutrition
supplements do not produce the quick-fixes of
sugary snacks. Rather, because they are a natural
herbal-based alternative, these drinks and tablets
are able to produce an invigorating boost which
lasts, while all the more supporting your body's
intake of nutrients.
If your are serious about sport then try out
Herbalife sports nutrition products and supplements.
Being based on the principle of balance, the sports
nutrition supplements offered by Herbalife sets
this company apart from other nutritional programs
in the same industry. A focus is placed on three
major technologies for the best sports nutrition
namely good science, herbal science, and micronutrient
supplementation.
Why a Sports Diet?
Sports nutrition can be defined as more than
merely carbo loading. A complete sports nutrition
program is all about fueling, hydration, refueling,
repairing, and recovery. Mixing carbohydrates
which are both quick and slow release, proteins
of high quality, and essential nutrients, the
supplements Herbalife offers are ideal for optimal
sports nutrition as part of this valuable program.
- Fueling: Providing immediate
fuel in the form of carbohydrates and storing
fuel in the muscles, athletes should take Formula
1 diluted in fruit juice thirty minutes before
working out.
Because exercise drains nutrients, Formula 2 herbal,
vitamin and minerals tablets can be taken with
meals.
- Hydration: It is very important
for athletes to drink fluid at least every 15
minutes during physical exercise. Adults require
a minimum amount of 2 liters of water per day
and so it is important for athletes to replenish
these stocks with even more water as reserves
get lost during strenuous exercise. Dehydration
is a big problem in sport. Herbalife also suggests
consuming water mixed with a weak solution of
Formula 1 when exercising for more than 30 minutes
as this is more readily absorbed by the body
and keeps the muscles topped up.
- Refueling:
There is a 30 minute window in which an athlete
needs to refill their muscles as this is the time
when these fuel tanks are most receptive to being
refilled. Herbalife recommends drinking Formula
1 mixed with juice or water within the first 30
minutes of your workout for best results in refueling.
- Repairing: After training,
muscles need to be repaired with high quality
protein. 90-120 minutes after taking part in
strenuous physical activity, drink Formula 1
mixed in a protein-rich beverage such as milk
or yoghurt or eat a Thermojetics protein bar.
For added protein, the Herbalife protein supplement
powder can be mixed with the Formula 1 shake.
- Recovery: A physically active
person breathes in more oxygen than the average
person. Because antioxidants help reduce muscle
damage by quickly removing lactic acids from
muscles, Herbalife provides the antioxidant
Schizandra Plus for increased aid. Benefits
of using this sports nutrition product is reduced
recovery time after exercise and an improved
immune system. Furthermore, Herbalifeline can
be added for supple joints and Niteworks for
improving blood flow to the muscles.
