Greetings,
I hope your summer is going well. This
week we are featuring a key article by Age group
Ironman Champion Cherie Gruenfeld on Mental
Preparation for Ironman. It has some pearls that
you'll want to incorporate into your own training. Also
toxic buildup and poor performance, lack of protein
and body breakdown, and information about the most
complete antioxidant to keep you from free radical
damage.
Have a great week.

Ever heard of Lipoic acid? Here is some useful
information about a new form of it.
Lipoic acid is one of the most potent antioxidants in
the body. It can eat up more types of free radicals
than
any other known antioxidant and it can recycle
Vitamins E, C, CoQ10, and Glutathione. This means
that after these
vitamins have done their job to quench a free radical,
the Lipoic Acid can recycle them so it can work again
on
new free radicals and eliminate it. Lipoic Acid is also
a heavy metal chelator and can remove mercury,
lead,
cadmium, and arsenic from the body.

| Prevent Breakdowns |

How little things can prevent breakdown if you
have the correct information and do them ...
On my long ride this week I noticed that my rear
derailleur would not shift into the higher gears. It just
wouldn't release. I stopped and put some lubricant
on it and worked it back and forth, thinking that it
was some
sand stuck in the bearings but that did not help. So I
stopped at a bike shop on the road and after the
mechanic looked at it he said, "looks like the shifter
lever is shot. You'll need a new one. They cost about
$250." "What? The bike is only a year old. How can
this be?"

| Athletic Performance and Total Body Toxic Load |
 |
Engaging in athletic activities puts a high
demand on your body to go faster, jump higher, and
lift more. Two very important factors must be
considered so that your genetic endowment can be
maximized:
1. Nutrition is the most important factor. Adequate
nutrients must be available to build tissues and
organs as well as to provide fuel for energy.

second piece of the equation: Mental Preparation.
When all else is equal among athletes, the one who is
the strongest mentally will win the day. And if you're
not looking to the podium but rather intent on
accomplishing a personal goal...
