What Generation UCAN Do For You

Are you lost when it comes to figuring out what to eat or drink before practice, a big game, or a long training session?

After speaking with some top collegiate athletes, it seems many don't know what to eat and drink.  Guess what I have found is the most popular snack before a sports practice?  A peanut butter and jelly sandwich.  I don't know how it started but this is most athletes go-to pre-practice snack - especially Tri-athletes :)  I'm not saying PB & J is terrible to eat before physical activity, I just want to show you something that will work a million times better. 

TIME FOR A CHANGE

Enter Generation UCAN

Generation UCAN is a new and amazing pre-workout supplement.  It is powered by a slow and time-releasing carbohydrate - Superstarch (a modified form of corn starch).

How does Generation UCAN's Superstarch work?

Superstarch empties through the stomach quickly, and then is slowly digested in the intestines.  What this does is provide a slow, time-released absorption of the Superstarch into the bloodstream.  Because of this, you will have stable blood sugar levels, minimal release of insulin, and maximal energy levels.  There is no high or low with Superstarch, just stable energy which is really what everyone really needs.

Because it empties through the stomach quickly, it is great for those who don't want that feeling of "food" in their stomach before physical activity, but need stable energy.  No one wants to feel hungry before they train.

What will stable blood sugar do for an athlete?

Stable blood sugar is the key to enhancing performance and reducing body fat. When your blood sugar is stable, your body doesn't need to pump out insulin (a fat storage hormone) and your body can actually use stored fat as fuel.  In addition, when your blood sugar is stable, your brain will get a time-released, steady supply of glucose which will help and enhance your focus.  This is an amazing effect!!

 

Foods and supplements today provide too much of an "up and down" effect, or if you remember from math class, a cosine curve.  Fast-digesting carbohydrates rush through you, give you energy for 10 minutes, and then you crash.  Life has so many ups and downs, why should you make your blood sugar suffer the same way?

Generation UCAN's Superstarch is currently a powder sold in packets.

How to Actual get better at Push-ups (when you can't do 1 clean rep)

Watch one of my tennis players use a "jump-stretch" band in the power rack to help him with his push-ups.  All you do is loop the band in the safety bars.  Each workout we decrease the band tension a little bit until he can start banging out push-ups on his own!

Notice he is working on keeping his elbows in to get lots of tricep involvement and to not place all the pressure on his shoulder.  Notice he goes all the way down and all the way up as well!  No half-reps allowed.

Blast from the Past

Real World, Really Jacked

Back to Reality interview with fantasy football expert, lawyer, and aspiring novelist, Dov Mochari

Dov is a man who is known to be hill sprinting at midnight because he couldn't do the session during the day.  He can workout in horrible conditions (no sleep, no water, little food) and still give it 100%.  We can all learn something from Dov.  Nutrition and exercise are about consistency, discipline, and most of all, hard work.  Dov accomplishes all three with success.  Without further ado, here is an interview with the mastermind himself.

1.  You say this quote a lot, "You have to know Socrates before nutrition."  What do you mean by this?  

Socrates is famous for saying, “Everything in moderation. Nothing in excess.”  It is merely this basic concept of Socratic moderation that I am throwing out there to any who will listen.  The bottom line is that a person may not know a calorie from a carbohydrate, or fiber from fat, but they will know that 20 cookies or 8 slices of pizza is not a moderate amount of that food for a dessert or a meal… 

 2.  In an ideal situation, what would you eat in the meal before you workout?

In an ideal situation, about 90-120 minutes before the workout, I would have a six egg omellete with spinach, skim mozzarella cheese, and red pepper, two cups of plain oatmeal made with skim milk and a tablespoon of all natural creamy peanut butter mixed in, an apple, and about a liter of water.

3.  What do you think of this statement about the thoughts of an overweight person:  "I'm going to run three days a week for 30 minutes and once I lose the fat, I will start weight training."

I am immediately frustrated by the overweight person who is convinced that a three day a week, 30 minute jog will be a more effective method of fat loss than weight training.  Weight training is a far superior way of generating fat loss than the 30 minute jog because of the resulting increase in the body’s level of lean muscle mass; in the long term this increase elevates the metabolism and provides for a far faster and more permanent fat loss.  If you don’t want to train with weights, sprint work and bodyweight work (push-ups, pull-ups, dips, lunges, squats etc.) are still superior methods of strength building, conditioning, and fat loss than a 30 minute jog (for similar reasons as weight training). This is not a knock on the 30 minute jog’s overall health benefits, but merely pointing out that if fat loss is one’s`goal, the jog is nowhere near the optimal method. (If you are looking for a customized exercise program to get you in great shape, with or without weights, email Seth sethbronheim@gmail.com).

4.  How do you exercise at the end of a day when you are not at your best and just want to lie on a couch and watch television?

I could sit here and tell you that I am always fired up for every training session…and that even on the days that I haven’t slept, haven’t eaten enough, and worked late, I am ready to be explosive…but that would be bullshit…The truth is that sometimes you just have to seriously consider why you are training, and what ignited your passion in the first place.  And then dig really deep, and push through the lethargy.   

5.  If someone is lacking discipline and consistency with their exercise and nutrition habits, what is some practical advice for them?

A good friend of mine once told me that when he was in college, he had gotten so disgusted with his overall lack of exercise and nutritional discipline, that he taped a huge sign on his bedroom ceiling right above his bed that said “AVERAGE”, so every morning when he got up it was the first thing he saw.  Now just to be clear, I am not advocating this method, but I am using my friend’s example to illustrate the fact that everyone is different.  Some people need to change routines, some need to take a total break, some need to change environment, some need to kick themselves in the ass, and some need someone else to get them to toe the line.  What works for me when I feel like my fire is running low, is incorporating things I love into training.  One example is making a sprint workout out of running football plays or doing football drills. And another example is combining a bunch of movements and exercises into a timed obstacle course.  Every person needs to figure out what makes them tick…different strokes, for different folks…
