OUR SHAKES

We now offer the most healthy shakes found anywhere in the world! They are as important as your workout.

In fact, if you miss your “Recovery Shake” you may as well have stayed in bed.

Our Shakes are designed for:
We are now using only sun ripened crushed fruit with no added sugars. Sun ripe means that good ole’ Mom Nature had the chance to put into every morsel all the vitamins and minerals that the sun, soil and rain have to offer. Only when the fruit is the ripest do we blend it.

Since we use primarily the skins, seeds and pulp of fruits, our shakes are lower in calories but higher in nutrients. Each shake is like eating three servings of fruit! And because fruit is naturally sweet there is no reason to add additional sugars; nobody else can make that claim.

Fact
Whether your performance goals are fat loss, muscle gain, toning or all of the above; optimizing the Recovery period that follows your workout is as critical to achieving your goals as your workout.

Nutrition is 80% of the battle and the key to your success.

Anatomy 101
Glycogen is the sugar stored in your muscles and liver, metabolized from the very carbohydrates you consume throughout the day. Glycogen is the primary fuel used by your body during weight resistance

or aerobic sessions lasting less than 2 hours. Since the human body can only store between 200–500 grams of glycogen (800–2000 calories), it is entirely possible to burn through most or all your glycogen in a 60–90 minute session of intense exercise.

Depleting glycogen stores during a workout causes your body to go into a catabolic (muscle wasting) state, using its own muscle to feed your body’s elevated metabolism and need for energy. Over time, the net result is a smaller version of yourself but with a higher fat to lean muscle tissue ratio. This decrease in muscle lowers your metabolic rate making it more and more difficult to burn calories and lose fat.

Did You Know
Glycogen must be present to burn fat. If you haven’t eaten properly prior to your workout, storing enough glycogen to sustain your workout, your body will convert its body proteins (muscle) into glycogen. Less muscle means a lower metabolism.

The Solution
By drinking a high Glycemic based drink immediately following a workout, preferably a 3 to 1 ratio of Carbs vs Protein respectively, all sugars are shunted directly to your muscle fibers, not to your hips or those pesky love handles. Remember, glycogen is stored in your muscles not in fat. Once in your muscle cells, Recovery can begin and you can begin to rebuild a stronger leaner you. Even if you are just trying to burn fat, replacing the sugars that you just burned enables your body to keep your metabolism humming by keeping your hard-earned muscle.

To optimize Recovery, nutrition is critical. Consuming an equal to 10% greater amount of calories than expended during your workout period is the critical first step to Recovery.
