Greetings,
Are you making the gains in your training that you
are hoping for? Taking too long to recover? Long
lasting soreness?
No need to suffer. MAP can help. This week
message from Discovery Channel Team Member
Michael Barry; how to strength train effectively; 6
key facts about protein you should know. Have a
great week.
- D.I. Minkoff, M.D.
| Inadequate Protein Intake Damages Your Body |
 |
Daily protein/amino acid intake is required to
maintain or normalize cellular turnover and optimize
the body's protein synthesis. Without sufficient
protein, the body either lets cells die or breaks down
other muscles and tissues to get the protein it needs
for repair and other functions.
The body may actually "eat itself" or cannibalize to
acquire the
necessary amino acids, or borrow the amino acids
from the immune system or body functions to meet
its protein needs. If you workout and don't have
enough protein to rebuild your body, instead of
getting stronger, you will become weaker and be
subject to injury.
MAP supplies all the essential amino acids in a
unique proportion to create and maximize your body's
protein production (synthesis.)

| Are three sets better than one? |
 |
When doing strength training are three sets
better than one? Should you do the lifts fast or slow?
From:
Medicine & Science in Sports & Exercise. 37(9):1622-
1626, September 2005.
This study was done with untrained subjects and
compared doing one set versus three sets of a
weight that they could lift 6-8 reps per set. It also
looked at doing the movements slow versus fast.
Which was better? They lifted three times a week for
six weeks.
- All became stronger.
- Three sets produced twice the strength increases
than one set
- Faster was better than slower if you did one set.
If you did three sets it is not as good
- Their conclusion: Do three sets slow per workout
for max strength gains
Taking MAP before strength workouts will make
this even better!

Last year was my first season of using Biobuild
and it helped me to recover faster from training and
racing compared to past years. I successfully
competed in 3 Ironmans in 2005. Biobuild helped me
to quickly recover from each Ironman and, for the
first time ever, ended the season feeling strong.
I won my age group (w25-29) in 3 races throughout
the year!
I'm looking forward to another season of racing with
Biobuild. Sincerely,
Angle DeFilippi

My goal going into Lake Placid was to improve
upon last years 4th place finish. I realized that to do
this, I had to train harder and most importantly
recover faster. I took 10 tablets of MAP before
and after every workout. As a result, I arrived in
Lake Placid feeling stronger than ever and recorded
the best Ironman finish of my career, second place.
MAP has made a tremendous difference in the
amount of volume and intensity my body can handle.
I highly recommend MAP to any athlete seeking
peak performance.

| Large amounts of pollutants |
 |
Our food, water and air contain large amounts of
pollutants that easily enter our bodies.
Chemicals in detergents, shampoos, deodorants,
cosmetics and lotions enter through the skin. Small
particles of air born pollutants enter our lungs. Food
with chemicals, artificial sweeteners, pesticides, and
heavy metals easily passes our intestines to invade
us.
To make sure that the toxins come out and do not
get hung up in the body use Body Detox.
Body Detox locks onto toxins in your body — toxins
embedded in your blood, your cell membranes, and
even those affecting the delicate inner cell
structures — and pulls these toxins safely out
through your bowels.
Body Detox also rejuvenates your intestinal tract,
where these flushed toxins exit, and protects you
from the damaging effects of toxin-generated free
radicals.

An injury is one of the toughest challenges for any
athlete. Being away from the sport you love, is often
a greater challenge than dealing with the injury itself.
Two weeks ago I crashed heavily in a Belgian cycling
Classics, the Tour of Flanders. The race is famous for
its cobbled climbs, foul weather and is considered
one of the toughest on the calendar and was one of
the major goals in the team’s spring campaign.
Up until the second hour of the race, my season was
going perfectly. I had been able to train well, gaining
strength with each competition and training session.
I felt good and our team was the best it had ever
been going into the week of ‘Classics’ in northern
Europe.
And then, I woke up in the hospital, not knowing how
I fell, or how bad the damage was. It was fairly bad,
as I had broken 3 vertebrae and had some severe
facial cuts—I was also unconscious for forty minutes
or so. Thankfully, it is all healing well and 2 weeks
after the fact, I am back on the home trainer, riding
my bike for an hour each day. It feels good to pedal
again, and I am motivated with the new challenges
and new objectives.
Prior to the crash we had done many tough one day
races and several stage races. I was recovering
better than ever and hadn’t been losing any muscle
mass—thanks to MAP.
MAP will now be a big part in my
rehabilitation
and my new goals for the rest of the season.
