Protein Supplements

I almost forgot to address this.  Last week I posted a comment about how three of our leanest members do not supplement with any protein, and I asked the question if you thought this was a coincidence.  The answer is, I don't really know.  What I do know is that protein helps build muscle.  Any professional athlete looking to gain strength most likely takes some form of protein supplement during the day, usually immediately following a workout.  Is it necessary?  Probably not (Daniel, Rory, and Parker are great examples of this); however, it really depends on your personal fitness goals.  If you are looking to lose weight, then you could probably do without it.  If you are looking to increase your strength numbers, then it could definitely help you.  If you are looking for advice as to whether or not you should incorporate a protein supplement into your diet, ask a trainer today.

Strength/Skill:  None.  Do a proper warm-up.  Stretch.  Mobilize.
