      <title><![CDATA[• Why &amp; How You Can Build Muscle]]></title>

      <description><![CDATA[<b>My Personal Success Story</b><br>
<br>
When I was 17 years old I discovered a sport that I was extremely good at - natural bodybuilding.  Most people when they think of bodybuilding think of the really big 300 lb guys, which look like the incredible hulk.  But what I'm talking about is <i><b>natural</b></i> bodybuilding - <u>without</u> steroids.<br>
<br>
I discovered the gym through my unyielding desires to continuously improve my skills in Track & Field, Volleyball, Soccer, Badminton and Basketball.  I started a sports and personal development path which led me to the library, and then to weight training at The YMCA.<br>
<br>
I started out by talking to the guys who had the "look" I wanted and the performance I was looking for. I bought every current magazine that had to do with weight and performance training, as well as books that I could afford at the time.  I also checked out as many books as I could to learn everything there was to know about the different training strategies, principles and research that had been done on athletic performance, weight training and bodybuilding.  I studied them every chance I could get.  Then with eager passion I poured my heart and soul into making my skinny 121 pound frame into a sculpted 154 lean body, it was a lot of hard work.

      <title><![CDATA[• How to Lose Weight Without Fat Burners!]]></title>

      <description><![CDATA[We have a lot of people who come in to GNC looking for "fat burners".  These products are pretty good if they are used properly.  There are natural ways that you can increase your metabolism, like using fat burners, once you understand how they work.<br>
<br>
Most fat burners, which increase your metabolism with caffeine and other metabolic shifting ingredients, are ok to use short term, but your body will adapt to these ingredients quickly and your results will peter off.<br>
<br>
The reason for taking fat burners multiple times a day is to increase your metabolism multiple times per day.  The concept is like pouring gas on a fire.  The fire does not stay ignited at an elevated level for a long time, it only stays elevated until the gas has been burned - this is the same with fat burners.<br>
<br>
Some alternatives to increase "the fire", your metabolism, are :<br>
<br>
<b>Deep breathing increases blood flow and stimulates oxygen within your body</b><br>
<br>
Deep breathing will increase blood flow, like a fat burner, which will help you to get your system moving better as well.  Taking deep breaths will help you to eliminate toxins within your body and increase oxygen being taken in by your cells (something a fat burner will not help you achieve! ).<br>
<br>
If you add oxygen to a fire what happens?  The fire will burn hotter and brighter, won't it?!  This can help you to increase your metabolism as well!
<br>
The best way to do deep breathing exercises is to inhale and "fill your belly with air" until you can't fit any more in your lungs, then hold the air for a minimum of 5 seconds, and exhale for a minimum of 5 seconds.  Repeat this 3-10 times.<br>
<br>
<b>Doing short bursts of intense exercise multiple times a day</b><br>
<br>
If you do very intense exercise (8-10 level of intensity) for 1 minute, 3 or more times a day, you would have similar effects to a fat burner.<br>
<br>
Your intensity is measured by your own level of fitness.  You wou ..]]></description>

      <title><![CDATA[• Now is the Time to Clean Your Body!]]></title>

      <description><![CDATA[No this is not an April Fool's joke, it's something that we should all be doing to create a long-term, healthy body - and that is cleansing our bodies from toxins and impurities.<br>
<br>
Today, I've started my "spring cleaning" with a product called <br>
<a href="http://www.amazon.com/gp/offer-listing/B00014D81S?ie=UTF8&tag=theadamaulenb-20&linkCode=am2&camp=1789&creative=9325&creativeASIN=B00014D81S"><u>CleanseSmart</u>, by RenewLife (which can be viewed in greater detail on Amazon.com) <img border="0" src="http://ec1.images-amazon.com/images/P/B00014D81S.01-A3EVWIEDD3GII2._AA280_SCLZZZZZZZ_.jpg" width=140 height=140 /></a><img src="http://www.assoc-amazon.com/e/ir?t=theadamaulenb-20&l=as2&o=1&a=B00014D81S" width="1" height="1" border="0" alt="" style="border:none !important; margin:0px !important;" /><br>
<br>
This 30-day product cleans your liver, heart, lungs, kidneys, skin, lymphatic system and colon.  The reason I choose this cleanse is that it is not harsh due to the herbal ingredients they choose for their formulas.  The CleanseSmart <u>does not</u> irritate the bowel to "open up" and drop everything out - this can be an unpleasant experience, instead it cleanses thoroughly without the irritable damage (something I'm a big fan of <img src="http://theadamaulenbackcompanies.com/blog/smilies/icon_cheesygrin.gif" alt=":D" /> )<br>
<br>
Most people who eat a "healthy" diet will say that they don't need to cleanse.  I am one of those "healthy" eaters, but I still need to clease my body twice a year to remove what our environment allows us to consume.  Through the pollution in our air, water and soil, there's plenty to clean out from our natural resources.<br>
<br>
The best way to describe the results of doing this cleanse is an "open" feeling in your stomach area.  I experience more energy (as do most who use it), and I often have a reduction in the waist line due to the removal of unwanted toxins and some undigested foods.  The average person has between 5 and 30 pounds of undigested food in their digestive system.  Imagine how different you ..]]></description>
