Get ready to push your boundaries and see what you’re made of because the upcoming training block is going to be a game-changer. You’ve put in so much effort up to this point and now it’s time to see the fruits of your labor. Don’t let all of that hard work go to waste by neglecting your nutrition or mindset. These two factors are going to be key in your success during this breakthrough period. Your nutrition is key during this process; therefore, make sure you are properly fueling your body with the vitamins, minerals, and nutrients it needs. Also, don’t forget to plan out meals ahead of time so that you can make healthy choices throughout the day. Lastly, pay attention to your mindset and find ways to stay positive and motivated during this training cycle. It will help maximize your potential as you take on new challenges and strive to reach new heights. So get ready, it’s time to make the most of this training block and show what you’re made of!
Training is hard work — and it’s important to do everything possible to make sure that you’re getting the most out of every session. Unfortunately, some factors can seriously sabotage your progress, and alcohol and cortisol are two of the biggest culprits. Alcohol not only dehydrates you and messes up your sleep schedule, but it can also wreak havoc on your cortisol levels, leading to decreased muscle production and increased fat storage.
When it comes to alcohol and weight gain, there’s no denying the harsh reality – excessive drinking can lead to a bigger waistline. Not only does alcohol pack a punch in terms of calories (with some drinks containing as much as a slice of pizza), but it also inhibits the body’s ability to properly burn fat. However, that doesn’t necessarily mean you have to cut out alcohol entirely to stay slim. Moderation is key here, and opting for lower calorie options like wine or light beer can help keep you on track. It’s all about finding a balance – enjoying a few drinks with friends while still maintaining a healthy lifestyle.
That’s why it’s so vital to monitor your alcohol intake if you’re serious about your fitness goals — and to make sure that you’re doing everything you can to keep your cortisol levels in check. With a little bit of effort and care, you can ensure that your body is functioning at its very best, and maximize your chances of reaching your training goals.
Finally, it’s important to remember that consistency is key when it comes to getting the results you want. That means not only making sure that you’re following a consistent training schedule but also taking care of yourself outside of the gym — and in particular, managing your alcohol consumption and cortisol levels. With the right amount of focus and commitment, you can ensure that your body is functioning optimally so that you can make the most of every training session. So don’t forget to take care of yourself — and keep reaching for those goals!
By following these tips, you’ll be able to maximize your progress and reach your fitness goals faster than ever before. With a little bit of perseverance and discipline, you can get the most out of your workouts — so don’t forget to take care of yourself, stay motivated, and make sure that you’re looking after those cortisol levels!

Amino Acids During Training
To maximize performance, it is essential to supplement amino acids throughout training. Amino acids provide the fuel your muscles need to work harder and longer while preventing muscle breakdown during intense exercise. Therefore, i encourage you to take some amino acids supplement for you that fits your individual needs. For more information on how to properly fuel your body, please visit don’t hesitate to contact me.

Best Damn Race – Lake Eola
This weekend is the BDR in Orlando. I am very excited to see all of you race this weekend. Our tent is going be set up at lake Eola somewhere in the North Lawn near the Eola House or in the Farmer’s Market Circle. Please arrive arrive at 6:45 am for a group pic. If you haven’t signed up, you can still sign up at: https://orlando.bestdamnrace.com
As we are getting ready for a hot race it is very important to get heat acclimatized. Therefore, I recommend a passive heat acclimatization. This is a process of gradually and naturally allowing the body to adjust to warmer temperatures. It involves staying outdoors in hot weather or sitting in a sauna for a period of time. Initially, the body may feel uncomfortable in the heat and sweat profusely as it attempts to cool itself down, but over time, the body becomes accustomed to hot weather and is better able to regulate its temperature.
This process can help reduce symptoms of heat illness such as cramping and dehydration. Additionally, passive heat acclimatization can help improve endurance and performance in hot weather. Some strategies for passive heat acclimatization include spending increased amounts of time outdoors, wearing fewer layers of clothing when outside, and avoiding physical activity during the hottest part of the day. It is very important to hydrate and take some electrolytes during this process. Start off with 10 min and then gradually build to 20 min. With regular practice and patience, passive heat acclimatization can help individuals become more comfortable in high temperatures.
If successful, ‘Connected’ will appear under the health app.

CFL Tri Club Holiday Party – Dec 18, 2022 – 5:00 pm
e to show off your culinary streak by whipping up some family delicacy, or something holiday themed. It’s a laid back contest where everyone is the judge.
There will be three categories of prizes –
Most Creative/Best Holiday Theme
Best Tasting Food or Drink
Best Tasting Dessert
We have hosted this party in the past, and had some great entries, like “Dasher’s Disaster”, meatloaf shaped like a reindeer that had been run over by a Jeep, or “Whoa, Whoa, WHOA!”, a complete gingerbread house with Santa and his reindeer piled up on the front lawn.
You are not required to bring a homemade dish, and don’t worry, if you just want to bring something store bought; that’s fine too.
For you competitors, here are a few hints –
Make your dish easy to eat. Finger foods works well, or something that is easy to divide up.
Make enough food, but smaller portions, I’m sure there will be a lot to eat.
Bring what you need to serve your food, and serving utensils.
This is one party where arriving early is preferable. Food should be presented and ready to eat at 5:30, as judging will commence at that time.
Seconds and thirds are encouraged, especially when trying to decide on who to vote for but let everyone get a taste…no fair trying to eat all of the competition.
Here is a hint for the more competitive in the bunch: Making it “showy” with a cute name – it tends to influence the judges. 🙂
