Greetings,
This week: Have you tried compression tights? An
article from age group IM Champion Cherie Gruenfeld:
Hamlet got it wrong, the real question is: To Race or
not to Race? And from Kevin Moats, IM Hawaii Age
group champion and world record holder: How to
Avoid Late Season Burnout? What does protein have
to do with detoxification?

| Protein and Detoxification |
 |
A person with a diet deficient in protein (amino
acids) will have a detox system that does not
perform at its highest level. To maintain health, the
detox system must be in full force to protect one
from the daily contact of environmental toxins and
especially during any detox program.
The detoxification pathways in the liver are based on
a two phase system, that require amino acids to
work. These systems are enzymes (made of amino
acids). Low protein/amino acid intake may mean low
enzyme levels.

I came across Master Amino Acid Pattern and decided to give it a
try. Before I started taking Master Amino Acid Pattern, I would have to
take the next day off after a hard, long workout, and
that severely limited how many workouts I could do
in a week. When I started taking Master Amino Acid Pattern I noticed a
difference after only a few days. I was able to
workout harder, longer and was no longer fatigued
afterward. I no longer needed days off, and
sometimes did a bike and a swim on the same day. I
was able to get in 7 hard training sessions a week,
with only one day off for rest. And oh! What a
difference it made.
I completed my next Olympic distance triathlon in
2:42, taking 33 minutes off my time. My next
triathlon was the Shaver Lake Triathlon in the
majestic Sierra Nevada mountains of California.
I finished the Olympic distance in 2:28 and was
astonished when it was announced that I had won
my age division. Even if I hadn't won, I was very
pleased with the time improvements I had been
achieving.
Thank you Master Amino Acid Pattern.
Sincerely,
Thomas Adlard

| To Race or Not to Race? That is the Question |
|
With the 2006 race season not yet
"wrapped", discussing whether to race or
not seems a rather strange topic. But with the
growth of our sport, we're now forced into the
position of having to select our key races for next
season before completing the current season.
The major race decisions seem to include the
following:
- Shall I do an Ironman race or a couple of 70.3
races?
- Do I want to qualify for Kona and/or the 70.3
championships?
- Is this a year when I should devote less time to
training and do shorter racer?
Once you've has answered these questions ...

| Compression Tights |
|
Have you tried them? Are
they worth it?
A new study done in France shows that wearing
compression tights can reduce the amount of energy
needed and allow you to run longer before fatigue
sets in. The experiment had 6 trained runners wear
three different types of clothing. 1) Compression
tights 2) classic elastic tights 3) Conventional
running shorts.

The Mid-Season Break or Lost is Good or How to Avoid late season Burnout or the Non-Training Training Workout |
|
|
|
The typical hard core triathlete’s season starts in
March/April and ends in October/November, or
roughly 7 months. Additionally if you are trying to
qualify for Ironman, it’s means peaking by May or
June, then trying to maintain one’s form and focus
until mid October. It just can’t be done.
As a typical obsessive/compulsive, doing nothing is
an impossibility. So I am not suggesting you do
nothing, but I am suggesting you redirect that
energy for a two to three week period mid season.
Late June/early July is good time to just take two to
three weeks and do something different. I am not
suggesting you sit on the couch and eat bon bons.
But I am suggesting you break the routine. As much
as one fears a loss of fitness, so long as one does
training lite (distance, but not intensity), you won’t
lose anything, and hopefully help rebuild your base.
The other advantage of taking some time off is that ,
hopefully, those nagging injuries, the plantar fascitis,
the sore Achilles, or tender knee, will have a
chance to mend.
Read the rest . . .
