Here's some tips that I've went to great pains to retrieve and compile. Origionally I did this to
basically aid myself (made a few copies for friends etc.... now everyone at my gym has one). I was
tired of sifting through tons of useless info. (alot of fitness mags and books etc. are just worthless to
varying degrees, from some I only retrieved a few descent lines). Anyhow, here it is; I hope that you
guys can use the info. As porductively as I had.
Note: All info. was quoted by so called professionals and should be safe to utilize. I have not
implemented any of my own ideas or opinions; and in no way will be held responsible for negative
results. You will of course forgive me for my spelling errors. I will try and upload this document
monthly with new info.(feel free to redistribute, but, if you alter this document take credit for it).

FITNESS/(Tips)
Health Concious /(General)
The more muscle on your body the greater your metabolic rate will be (the faster you'll burn fat and
gain muscle). The more calories you burn, the less you'll have to reduce your fat intake.
6 small meals a day is better than 3 large ones. This lets your body utilize the nutrients and speeds
up the metabolic rate.
A high fat diet can do damage to your penis also (the walls of the arteries in your penis can become
partially blocked reducing bloodflow and causing impotence, wearing polyester underwear can
cause impotence also). A high fat meal can decrease testosterone levels by as much as 30% within 2
hrs. after the meal.
Speed up metabolism = aerobics every other day, moderate calorie, high protein and low fat and
sugar diet
Foods that say they have no cholesterol may be loaded with staurated fat.
Except for meat and Poultry there are no federal laws govering the words "Lite" and "Light" (ask for
extra lean or fat reduced at the deli, when it comes to chicken light contains about a third the fat of
dark).
Products that list the first ingrediant as solid fats and oils are usually high in fat (IE mayonase,
butter... ingrediants that contain large amounts of staurated fat include meat and poultry fat, butter,
cream etc).
Feet: If your feet seat use socks containing wicking fabrics, not absorbant socks (talc or constarch
helps prevent blisters, the best cure for a blister however, is a layer of petroleum jelly); once you've
gotten a blister use moleskin. Cowboy boots can put 2x as much stress on your heel as your used to.
Studies show that the only way to endure heat is to work in it, the first sign of dehydration is fatigue
(muscle strenght decreases). Other symptoms include: muscle aches, cramps, nausea, diarrhea, lack
of concentration, tunnel vision etc.
Sports that burn calories the quickest over a short period of time IE 40 min. (highest to lowest):
Jogging, Scuba Diving, Stair Climbing, Basketball, Jumping Rope, Tennis, Volleyball, Boxing,
Swimming, Cycling, Frisbee, Golf, Softball.
Minor ills: The buring senstaion from alcohol on a wound is evidence of further damage or irritation
to the tissue; if you can't keep anything down don't try, if vomiting persists after 6 hours call your
doctor. Don't put stuff in your ears (it can cause damage), use and over the counter eardrop to soften
wax then wash it out with a bulb syringe. If your ill extra rest won't speed your ecovery; long term
bed rest causes bones to lose calcium, muscles to wither and bowels to shut down.
Make sure your fitness goals are specific yet realistic, variety is powerful when the key is
motivation
When buying milk buy a paper carton rather thana plastic jug, the lights in groceries stores can
cause the jugs to lose up to 90% of the vitamin "A"
Sleep: make sure you get at least 4 hours (you need additional sleep but a wake break won't disrupt
anything).
The humid air of the bathroom can decrease the potency of your medications (don't have them in the
med. cabinet).
Everfresh bags can save your refrigerated veggies from a soggy mess (they last much longer).
Store your soup cans in the fridge, that way the fat will rise to the top and you can scoop it off when
you open it.
Iron out out wrinkles by using cream containing alpha-hydroxy acids (Eucerin Plus and Revlon
Results or ask your dermatologist for stronger formulas) The labels will mention glycolic acids.
Get lots of Zinc to keep up your sex drive (Eat chicken or fish twice a week).
Wear a hat in the hot sun to prevent the hairs cells from turning the pigments causing grey hair.
Don't run in ankle weight under any condition, they can do severe damage to your knees over a
period of time.
Prepare yourself for the onslaught of fat by exercising the day before (muscles absorb the fat to
replenish the amount burned off).
If you've been a swilling and encounter a bad headache and stomach probs. (hangover) take honey,
it'll help to metabolize the alcohol in your bloodstream (take with toast or crackers).
Cuts: If refusing to seek medical or the proper attention for cuts don't let air do the trick (it won't
heal any faster and will only leave it open to scar tissue). Instaed wash the cut with soap and water,
then slap on some antibiaotic ointment or petroleum jelly; finally cover the wound with a sterile
bandage (change the dressing every morning).
Tan Tips: You should buy a lotion with an SPF of at least 15 (make sure the lotion has a
moisturizer). Apply self tanners several hours before going out(adding a layer of sunscreen before
going out isn't a bad idea either). Don't reapply self tanners until you've seen the fianl results, wait
30 minutes for the tanners to dry before dressing or going to bed (remember to wash your hands
unless you want tanned palms).
12 Steps to a healthy diet: 1) Eliminate Junk Food and highly processed Foods, 2) Folow the 2/3,
1/3, low fat rule (65% carbs., 25% protein, 10% fat), 3) Eat Small Frequent Meals (don't skip a
meal, you'll want more later... eat slowly and the brain will think it's full faster), 4) Eat Breakfast
like a King, Lunch like a Prince and dinner like a Pauper (the metabolsim is most the active in the
morning and slows drastically by the evening; digestion is the strongest at noon and a large meal
may also be consumed here), 5) Select Foods that are high in fiber, 6) Separate Protein and
Carbohydrate Feedings 7) Drink 8-10 Glasses of Water per day, 8) Include Aerobics of some form
in your schedule, 9) Reduce Calories Gradually and in a Cyclical Fashion (too keep the metabolism
off guard and responding, figure the average number of calories you want to diet down to; then
stagger your actual daily intake above and below that number. IE 700 calories one day, 300; then
500 the third day... supplements become important when you cut calories and predispose yourself to
nutritional deficiencies), 10) Weight training will increase Metabolism and Preserve Lean Body
mass, 11) Train Earlier (this will increase your metabolic rate for the entire day), 12) Have a
realistic game plan
For a pickup in your training and endurance energy levels use Inosine.
Carbs = sugars, once your blood sugar level drops you can forget about having a productive workout
(some good carbs include grains, rice, pasta. yams, and whole grain breads).
Salads: look for ones with under 2 grams of fat and under 300 milligrams of sodium
Amino acids arginine and orthinine will help to reduce your body fat if you take them while weight
training.
you'll need to consume 2,500-3,000 calories more (a day) than what your body normally need in
order to gain 1 pound of muscle if trainining faithfully.
Protein should equal approx 0.8 grams per kilogram of bodyweight a day. Using more protein than
you need will only convert it to fat (same as carbs or anything relative to your needs). The harder
you train the more protein you'll need, for a positive nitrogen balance; which is a necessity in
building muscle.
Protein drinks can compensate for extra meals (IE one between breakfast and lunch). If you eat 6
meals a day you'll always have the protein and carbos your body needs.
Enzymes that stimulate muscle glycogen from carbs last up to 90 min. after a workout. By
consuming protein or carbs during this period you may speed up protein synthesis.
You must burn 3,500 calories to burn 1 pound of fat.
The subconcious does not know the differance between imagining a lift and actually doing one; if
you can tap into this power there are no limits.
Melatonin can be increased at night by exposure to bright light in the day, radiation such as red light
also helps to speed up the metabolic process(turn down the lights after 9:00 pm to assist). Foods
high in melatonin include bananas, tomatoes, oatmeal, ginger and sweet corn (taking pain releivers
before bed such as aspirin, can cut melatonin by up to 75 %).
Electrical muscle stimulation: the main use today is for recuperation, & for maintaining strength
(muscle mass).
Cortisol is the muscle destroying hormone, it is released during high periods of stress (glutamine
helps to partially block the effects of cortisol).
The slower your oxidative rate the higher proportion you'll need of carbs and less of protein and fat.
Recipes: Mandy Tanny's "The Muscular Gourmet has more than 300 nutritious low calorie recipes
(as well as numerous bodybuilding diet tips).
Make sure to separate your carbs and protein meals or your body is not going to utilize all the foods
efficiently.
Protein/Carb meals will contain higher levels of amino acids than just one or the other (blood
concentrations therof will be higher).
Some of the main/major risks of steroid use include: 1) na increase in bloodclotting factors (setting
the stage for heart attacks and arterial blockage). 2) A decrease in the good (HDL) cholesterol in
your blood stream (except with the usage of injectable testosterones, Winstrol is particularly bad). 3)
Direct injury to heart cells. 4) Elevated blood levels. 5) Steroids decrease arginine which could lead
to a coronary/artery spasm resulting in damaged heart muscle.
Yocon or Yohimex is a drug (thumbs up) that can easily be regulated and controlled in the body
with minimal or no side effects (may cause bloating). This drug is a good alternative to steroids and
their side effects. Limit your intake of Yocon to 10 weeks at a time.
Supplements/Nutrition (Food)
A high protein and fat diet has clicked for some body builders these days, such restrictions as were
present a few years ago may not apply as readily (your body needs different foods in order to shock
itself into growth; how will it burn fat if it's not getting any).
For protein you need eat only egg whites (they provide almost all the essential amino acids and only
derive 17% from fat), white meat of poultry and low fat fish. Eliminate whole milk egg yolks,
cheese, pork and red meat, fat and sugar free yogurt, turkey
For carbos. eat oatmeal, baked potatoes and yams, rice, corn, pasta, whole grain breads, cereal
(grape nuts, oat bran or shredded wheat), beans and fresh or steamed vegetables, as well as dried
fruits and nuts.
Don't eat fried food, junk food, candy pop and processed foods. Don't use salad dressing, butter or
margerine. Boil meat instead of frying.
Substitue this for that: salad dressing = MCT (medium chain triglyceride, enhances metabolism)) oil
and a bit of vinegar or lemon or combine red wine, vinegar, olive oil, lemon juice, ground pepper
and honey; butter/margerine = MCT oil or CapTri; Jelly and Jam = sugar free friut spread; chips =
non fat tortilla; mayonase = plain fat free yogurt (seasoned with lemon and herbs), pizza = Fit n'
free, mayo = lemon juice, pepper and hot pepper sauce or nonfat yogurt.
Take a good vatamin mineral pak with amino acids and branched chain aminos.
Fat burning agents: * Caffeine combined with aspirin (also add Dym. 25), * Dymetadrine 25,
Lipotropics (choline,inositol and methionine), GH enhancers before bed (elevates growth hormone
levels), Clenbuterol (controlled sub.), kelp (5 to 10 tabs a day), Ephredine.
Enhance metabolism: GH enhancers (arginine, orthinine), * GABA (Gamma AminoButyric Acid), *
GHB (Gamma Hydroxy Butryrate).
HDL Cholesterol is "good" cholesterol, LDL clogs your arteries (get the ratio checked). Vit. "E"
stops the bad chemical changes in cholesterol that can lead to arterial blockage (too much however
can have the opposite effect), also calcium helps in reducing bad cholesterol (LDL) (endulge skim
milk, fortified orange juice, yogurt, salmon and green leafy veggies) it's also good in lowering blood
pressure and preventing kidney stones.
Vitamin E appears to neutralize free radicals in the artery wall that promote tumours and cause
cancer(by up to 37%), Vit. E also blocks chemicals that can shut down the immune systems cell
production and activity and cause toxic protein in the brain of Alzheimer's recipients.
A low fat diet can not only keep you slim (try to score lower than 53 grams a day), but also help to
ward off hypertension, heart attacks (try to include some potassium), cancer and diabetes. Eat lots of
fruits whole grains, vegetables and starchy foods (a 20% fat diet is great). Try to include alot of
fiber it works wonders (oatmeal, whole wheat toast, fruit, veggies, beans, whole grain bread and
pastas etc.). Consuming 25 grams of fiber a day delivers a 31% reduction in colon cancer risk.
However eating too much fiber can cause problems; 15 grams a day should be sufficient. (Don't diet
it'll cause your body to sense danger thus conserving fat and burning fewer calories).
Antioxidants to look at: Vitamin A, C (orange juice, red bell peppers, strawberries and broccoli), E
(wheat germ, olive oil and safflower oil.. E is also good for your knee joints), beta carotine (carrots,
spinach sweet potatoes and cantaloupe) and selenium. Vitamin B6 has been shown to boost long
term memory and maintaining a strong immune system (it is also a key agent in protein
metabolism), zinc also plays a vital role in fighting off viruses - found in wheat germ and beef (B6 -
baked potatoes, chicken breast, tuna bananas, skim milk, chick peas etc.) Vit. C, E and Beta
Carotine protect against heart disease, cancer and elevated cholesterol as well.
Rogaine is the only prescrip. that helps combat hair loss, ask your physicain about combining it with
Retin-A (for better results).
Dandruff: use a shampoo that contains pyrithione zinc or selenium sulfide. Both cut down on the
fungus population leading to dandruff. Even the best dandruff shampoos won't work if you rinse too
quickly however. If the itching is severe try a hydrocortisone solution (this'll stop the itching and
scratching that can lead to infection).
Breath: chewing parsley can keep your breath fresh for up to 24 hrs.
Good Eats: Complex Carbs (pasta, cereals, beans, veggies and fruits etc.) will pump up your energy
levels (not your waist). Fiber (fruits, veggies, beans, grains etc.) act like a sponge for absorbing
cholesterol and clearing it away.
Power Punch: 1 cup frozen cantaloupe chunks, 1 cup frozen strawberries, 1 cup frozen peaches, 1
1/2 cups orange juice, 4 tablespoons wheat germ (fruits = vit. C; cantaloup = beta carotine; wheat
germ = vit. E).
Studies have shown that Calcium interferes with the absorption of Sat. fat (declines in blood
cholesterol - drink milk; calcium fortified milk will provide twice as much calcium as regular milk)
* L-Glutamine: Glutamine may slow the rate of exercise induced muscle breakdown (catabolism),
resulting in a net increase in protein synthesis (muscle anabolism). Glutamine should be take
throughout the day and separated from meals, the amino acids in food compete with glutamine
weakening the effects.
More than 200mg of Vitamin "C" per day gets filtered out by the kidneys.
Beans: are a great source of fiber and nearly fat free sorces of vitamin "B" and "A", potassium,
calcium, iron and protein.
By drinking coffee after a meal it may speed up your metabolism by burning calories.
Vitamins and Minerals needed for you immune system: Vit. "C" is very beneficial to the immune
system. should be a part of everyone's diet (excellent antioxidant). Zinc is also a essential cofactor
of more than 100 enzymes. Also needed is vit. "B6". Vit. "E" is the most essential vitamin in
stopping cholesterol and arterial blockage.
Essentail Amino's (not manufactured by the body): Histidine, Isoleucine, Leucine (triggers the
release of growth hormone and insulin - defying the burning of muscles), *Lysine, Methionine,
Phenylalanine, Threonine, Tryptophan, Valine; vitamin and mineral dificiencies can affect your
ability to use amino acids.
Protien is needed after a workout due to loss during (use any method IE supplements, the most basic
form of supplements would be a high quality egg and milk based powder along with a good mineral
and multi-vitamin pack, also try to include omega-3 fatty acids which will increase growth hormone
release).
* Tissue repair: L-leusine, L-isoleucine and L-valine; these are the aminos your muscles are the
hungriest for.
Not bad junk: Banana bread, oatmeal cookies, carrot cake.
Low fat: Hot dog = Ball park lite 33 (12 grams not lean but better than the regular 17; even better
are turkey franks which have a bout 9 grams), Angel food cake = has no fat (any kind). Oatmeal
cookies = Entenmann, chips = Louise's fat free potato chips (pretzels are better than chips). Daily;
take multipacks of vitamins and minerals (include calcium, magnmesium, chromium, zinc, b-
complex, and vit. "C", Soy is also good.kind)
Many bran muffins are actually very high in fat, up to 12 grams of fat (almost as much as a
hamburger).
Medications such as aspirin and acetaminophen can make cold symtoms worse (causing inflamation,
stuffiness and the lowering of antibodies).
chromium is required to produce a positive amount of insulin, it should be bound with niacin -
(GTF): Glocose Tolerance Factor, (without GTF chromium muscles don't grow - don't produce
insulin and engage the metabolic process) take 290 mcg + a day (Arginine and Lysine also stimulate
insulin secretion).(Without sufficient amounts the system could shut down and muscle loss sets in,
we also feel tired, and very hungry, take your aminos and nutrients IE chromium, fresh fruits also
releases insulin). Eat regular meals at regular times or your insulin level will fluctuate; missing a
meal is even worse, it can cause your rate to soar and thus store large amounts of bodyfat.
