Reading FC – 24 Hour Athletes, Fuelled by Herbalife24

Now you can achieve a better, stronger, more capable body with Herbalife24FIT.

This 24-week DVD work out program is led by top fitness experts and developed by Herbalife with the renowned physical therapist and performance specialist Robert Forster.

The Herbalife 24 range, everything the athlete needs in the course of a day. Hey, is that why it’s called 24?

A typical training ride for me is somewhere between three and five hours so I start my day with a bowl of porridge supplemented with a few scoops of the Herbalife Formula 1 Sport powder (as suggested by Monsieur Kay, sous-chef at Maison d’Reid Parc). I take two bottles on the ride, if it’s a long ride I fill both with Herbalife Prolong (a 7:1 carb to protein formulation that increases endurance whilst reducing fatigue and muscle damage) or, for a shorter ride, one bottle with Prolong and the other with Herbalife Hydrate (an isotonic formulation of minerals and electrolytes to replace those lost through sweat). I also take two of the Herbalife Protein bars which help to prevent me from feeling empty and are a great reward for completing any intervals in my training session.

A little will get you a surprisingly long way. Note the additional sachets of Hydrate which can be used if an extra water stop is required while on the road.

Once back from the ride I use my Herbalife 24 Protein Shaker (with whisk ball for easy mixing – genius!) to mix up a combination of Rebuild Endurance and Rebuild Strength – I feel this gives me the best combination of muscle repair and glycogen replacement without unwanted bulk. Incidentally the two products combine to give a lovely chocolate vanilla flavour.

Michelle Wie recently revealed on a social media website that she is susceptible to allergy and often faces trouble gripping the club.

“I am allergic to everything in this world, I don’t really digest food very well,” Wie said.

She as inspired to make a change to her diet by Novak Djokovic, the Worlds No 1 Tenmis Player.

She has said that ever since she started taking the gluten-free diet, she has been seeing surprising results.

“So I just thought maybe if I cut out gluten, I can feel better because I heard that it causes inflammation, everything… but it’s been week three and I feel a big difference.

She commented “You know, my joints don’t feel sore as much, I digest food a lot better, my hands feel less swollen so I feel really good.”

Both players follow a gluten free diet.

Djokovic saving a critical breakpoint in the fifth set, in his semifinal match vs Andy Murray at the 2012 Australian Open. Djokovic raised his level to battle through 6-3 3-6 6-7 (4-7) 6-1 7-5 in four hours 50 minutes.

He then goes on to win the final in another fifth setter. Novak Djokovic wore down Rafael Nadal in the longest Grand Slam singles final in the history of professional tennis, winning 5-7, 6-4, 6-2, 6-7 (5), 7-5 after five hours, 53 minutes to claim his third Australian Open title.

“It definitely helps,” Murray said. “I slept probably seven-and-a-half hours after playing singles and doubles the day before and woke up feeling fine and obviously started the match well today, too, so that’s one of the benefits of doing the diet, taking it seriously: I’ve felt much more energetic.

“Mentally, I feel very fresh. I think I’ve paced myself through the year pretty well but physically I feel fine. I wake up in the morning and I feel okay. A lot of it could be down to diet but also the work I do in the gym and the way I’ve gone through the year.”

The article goes on to say ” removing gluten from your diet can lead to lacks in essential nutrients, and advise professional consultation and monitoring to anyone adopting this dietary adjustment. A well-balanced meal plan is essential for the gluten intolerant, and with the physical requirements an athlete needs to maintain, it’s a must to have expert help and oversight. With the rigorous impact of tennis tournaments and constant training regimens, and the resultant physical strain on the body, diet plays a major role in sustaining and repairing muscle stress and fatigue. No. 1 seed Djokovic, and now No. 3 seed Murray are finding the benefits an advantage.”
