| CIRCUIT DAY PLAYTIME | seeing this recorded for the first time has really made me more accountable to work on getting the Front Lever! Lots of work to do!
Branched Chain Amino Acids - "What are they and how can they help me?" (The last point may be particularly interesting to people already supplementing with these!)
BCAA's are 3 Amino Acids - Leucine, Isoleucine and Valine. They've been shown to stimulate muscle growth and induce glucose uptake into cells. This can be of benefit to you if you are deficient in dietary protein and also help to delay the onset of fatigue whilst training. BCAA's can also be beneficial to take during training to prevent muscle loss, which is commonly used when people are aiming to lose weight/fat, and preserve lean muscle.
(The last point đ) DID YOU KNOW BCAA's are naturally found in foods with close to a 2:1:1 (Leu:Iso:Val) ratio of each. The common formulation for BCAA's now is to load up on Leucine in a 5:1:1, 7:1:1 or even 10:1:1! Because more is better right!? With the leucine ratio being potentially 10x higher than Iso and valine, it can dominate the absorption of these proteins and also other proteins. Meaning you're not getting the desired, synergistic effect of all three aminos because leucine has taken over! That's why companies like Syn-Tec have produced The Compressor to make sure there is a 2:1:1 ratio of the BCAA's with added L-Glutamine and MSM for gut repair, immunity and joint recovery! Swipe to see more!
| FRIDAY PLAYTIME | "just grip it and rip it" apparently.
DID YOU KNOW - Testosterone, Estrogen, Progesterone and Cortisol are all products of Cholesterol and a substance called Pregnenolone!? Your body LOVES to prioritise whatever substances you may need for survival through your day. If you're 'wired' with coffee, pre workouts, study, work and rollercoaster relationships, your body is going to prioritise making cortisol to deal with these stressful situations. Make YOURSELF a priority and start looking after your body with Cort RX! This is by far one of my most recommended products and you'll seriously wish you tried it a long time ago!
| Wednesday Playtime | this place has made training fun again! I love having some more variety and challenges with my training and this place has done exactly that! Couldn't recommend it highly enough đ
What's in your arsenal for Deadlift day? Syn-Tec's Prime Evil is loaded with Caffeine, Beta-Alanine and Creatine. All which have been thoroughly researched and consistently proven to increase power, strength, endurance, fat loss and overall performance.

Monday Playtime! Looks weird but it did the job! Slight variation on an old classic to create constant tension on the body. Paired this one up with Banded bench press đ give it a try and let me know how you go!

Getting lean just got a little easier! Try out our BEST-SELLING protein powder Glyco-Whey for fast, lean results
A Complete Protein... www.OrganicSuperfoods.com.au
Weâve combined Organic Sprouted Brown Rice Protein Powder with Organic Sprouted Pea Protein Powder which delivers a complete protein powder (all 9 Essential Amino Acids) in a concentration level which compares favourably with any other protein powder on the market. In fact, because both our Organic Brown Rice Protein and Organic Pea Protein have been sprouted, they have a significant advantage over other protein powders in terms of digestibility.
43% Organic Sprouted Brown Rice Protein
Has a number of advantages over other protein powders.
(1.) Blends easily and is not chalky in texture (as many other protein powders are)
(2.) Organic brown rice protein powder is Hypo-Allergenic, so is good for people with compromised digestion.
(3.) Organic whole grain, Brown rice includes the bran and the endosperm layers, not only retaining the fibers but also much of the amino acid profile.
(4.) It is bio-fermented / sprouted with natural enzymes, which as the above detailed increases the bio-availability of the protein.
40% Organic Sprouted Pea Protein Powder
Benefits include;
1. Is a complete protein, which together with Rice Protein ensures good to high levels of all 9 Essential Amino Acids.
2. Pea protein is especially high in lysine and arginine, which are particularly beneficial for those leading active lifestyles.
3. Like Rice Protein powder, it is hypoallergenic and bio-fermented / sprouted which makes it particularly good for people with compromised digestion.
4. Pea protein in a very good source of dietary iron.
14% Mesquite Powder & 3% Vanilla Powder
Mesquite Powder has traditionally been used as a flour or low GI sweetener. It blends beautifully, making it an ideal addition to a smoothie blend with its natural nutty - caramel flavour. Due to its extremely low GI level (25), it provides slow release energy, which in combination with this blendâs high protein content, means that it keeps your energy level going for longer after consuming. 3% Vanilla Powder - weâve used a just enough vanilla powder to add a lovely smooth, velvety tone to this blend.
Organic Superfoods Our ingredients are 100% plant based. Plants provide the greatest health benefits in the world. So why use anything else.
đ Well said!
One positive I can see from some isagenix stories is that the people may lose the weight that they've been wanting to get rid of for a long time. They may initially feel great, and it might have finally given them the nudge and motivation to make a positive change.
BUT for most people it's a quick-fix with extremely poor diet strategies that will lead to the client being worse-off in the long term.
Isagenix: The elephant in the room.
It feels as though anyone with half a brain or knowledge of health and fitness is against it, but everyone is too scared to speak out as one of their friends sells it or the backlash is always significant.
Recently, well actually over the last couple of years I have had people message me as well as some of my fellow nutrition buddies needing help after trying Isagenix and the problems that occurred during as well as ongoing since coming off it. I thought I would review the products and ingredients as well as the company to provide some insight into Isagenix. Here are some bullet points:
-Pseudoscience without any actual scientific studies which prove Isagenix systems have any benefit over proven methods. The one scientific study which has tried to compare Isagenix diet with food diet was flawed and all the figures do not add up. (Reference my article http://www.holisticperformancenutrition.com/articles--media/isagenix-study-review) and did not show any benefit over eating food compared to Isagenix.
-Weight loss is due to starvation/calorie deficit and not due to the ingredients in the shakes.
-The products claim to be natural yet are created with synthetic bi-products of natural ingredients. The products are what a nutritionist would call overpriced skim milk. There are products for a third of the price on the market that are significantly better for you, without the main ingredient being sugar and skim milk powder, which is $3 a kg from the supermarket by the way and have significant inflammatory effects in the body.
-The increased energy/good feeling resulting in starting Isagenix is due to the elimination of processed and refined foods from the diet, not from the Isagenix ingredients. Take an already healthy person, someone who eats healthy, real whole foods, put them on Isagenix and they tend to feel ill, sick, fatigued due to the starvation. Isagenix can be effective for people who eat a crap standard diet full of processed foods, but after a while their bodies will slowly deteriorate due to lack of calories and their metabolism will decrease, which tends to mean as soon as they touch normal whole foods again they balloon up. (This is referring to the shakes plus meal system).
-The initial weight loss is usually due to water weight/muscle glycogen that can be up to 5kg within a few days. From there the majority of weight loss is muscle rather than fat loss which hinders the metabolism significantly. Once people may stop Isagenix, they have slowed their metabolism so much, that any touch of normal food causes significant weight gain. Donât even get me started on the potential hormonal problems of this.
-No doctors, nutritionists, dieticians, naturopaths or anyone with any heals degree condone or support Isagenix as it is not healthy, unless of course they are paid significantly by Isagenix themselves. Isagenix is supported by people who don't have any health education, which can be dangerous.
-Only the top 1% can make a living selling Isagenix and that is still only 1% earning more than $30,000 yearly. 99% earn less than that. Those were figures released by Isagenix themselves. So before you believe the whole you can retired before youâre 30 scam, think again.
-All studies on Isagenix are self-funded, that's like someone walking around saying how awesome they are with nothing to back it up other than their own ego. Like how Coca Cola funds the studies that say sugar is not bad for you.
-Detoxing is a scam. The body has a liver and kidneys for a reason and no person needs to detox. Isagenix claims it eliminates toxins from the body yet they cannot name one single toxin it eliminates.
-The product only works if you are paying someone. Education is important for health, but making people use the same product forever for so called health is not educating them but just taking more money.
Sure, there are some unhealthy people and Isagenix can be a good start for them, but like I mentioned above, educating people on eating nutritious, natural, whole, and unprocessed foods will in turn lead to a healthier future for them and perhaps even a social life.
*This article is about the Isagenix Diet of consuming two shakes daily and a 400-600 calorie meal.
If you LOVE TRAINING and training HARD, you NEED this!
Maximising your recovery from training, everyday stresses like work, family life etc means you need to make sure you're factoring in relaxing and getting a restful nights sleep.

Consider this. You have a formula of fuel that your body, as in your individual body needs to operate and live. Each day this formula is slightly different due to so many variables, energy expenditure, muscle breakdown, sleepâŚ. itâs almost seems like an infinite list.
What is important is your body requires all types of nutrients to function, repair, and balance hormones. Thatâs Protein to Amino Acids, Fats to Essential Fatty Acids, Carbohydrates to Glycogen, Fiber, Vitamins and Minerals and so on.
All of these nutrients are responsible for the regeneration and function of the human body so much in fact: Your outer layer of skin, the epidermis (apart from the thicker dermis beneath), replaces itself every 35 days. You are given a new liver every six weeks (a human liver can regenerate itself completely even if as little as 25% remains of it). Your stomach lining replaces itself every 4 days, and the stomach cells that come into contact with digesting food are replaced every 5 minutes. Our entire skeletal structures are regenerated every 3 months. Your entire brain replaces itself every two months. And the entire human body, right down to the last atom, is replaced every 5-7 years.
Your diet has a major impact on how successfully your body is at these regenerations. As an example some Amino Acids metabolise in the tissue to repair and rebuild. B-Vitamins assist this process by enhancing absorption, other nutrients effect the bodies hormones that also help all the functions just stated.
So what does this all mean for you⌠every bodily function means if you are tired when you shouldnât be you are lacking in one of the nutrients Iâve just stated, If you lack motivation, there is a good chance you are deficient in a nutrient described (unless you are lazy that is) the same goes for the quality of your skin, dryness of your scalp and so on.

Have you ever really been confident about the ingredients and dosages in the multi-vitamin you've been taking!?
This is something that makes me really excited to share with you and bring to you through Clear-Cut Performance and Health!
ATP science has developed a multi vitamin and mineral product entirely derived from natural food ingredients. It has been the subject of months and months of research, which has not just led to the formulation of this Multi-Food, it has also led to several ATP Project podcasts exposing that 99% of multi vitamins on the market today may not just be ineffective, but may actually be doing you harm!
ATP Science believe nature knows best, so theyâve gone back to nature to create a multi-vitamin from whole organic foods (fruits and veggies) complete with their natural co-factors and nutrients to provide what your diet may be missing. Remember nothing replaces eating fresh, locally grown and produced food, but Multi Food can certainly help if your daily nutrition is not as good as it should be.

You want to know the best âdetoxâ you can give your body this New Year!?
Let. It. Do. Itâs. Thing.
Your liver, kidneys, skin, lungs, lymphatic system, digestive tract⌠theyâre all exceptionally good at âdetoxifyingâ the body from free radicals and toxins - theyâre worlds better than any juice cleanse or restrictive diet gimmick that youâve been force-fed information to. (Pun wasnât intended, but it really worked out there!)
The best way you can âdetoxifyâ your body is:
- feed it with a balanced diet of reasonable portions (the âholidayâ portions need to cut back),
- eat plant foods at EVERY meal (breakfast included!),
- drink plenty of water and green/black tea,
- exercise regularly,
- get some time out in the sun,
- moderate the foods you know you shouldnât eat and,
- check the products youâre lathering all over your body and face everyday!
Quite often itâs highly unlikely that youâre able to get the nutrients your body requires to put its âdetoxifyingâ abilities into full effect. This is where supplements tend to come in. Same goes for any other goal, supplements are used to improve what you may not be getting from your diet in the first place!
The supplements I have highlighted above (in the image) are what I would recommend for giving your body the best chance to fill any gaps within your nutrition in regards to detoxification.
- D-Toxilean is a synergistic blend of Milk Thistle, Amino Acids and Vitamin B6 specifically designed to improve liver function, weight management and general health. Milk Thistle is known to have a powerful antioxidant effect that optimises liver metabolism to flush out alcohol, toxic substances and other environmental pollutants. Consume 1 teaspoon with water first thing in the morning.
- Zinadrol Express is a synergistic blend of Zinc, Magnesium and Prickly Pear plus the beneficial amino acids - Glycine, Taurine and Glutamine supported by Vitaminâs B6 and C for enhanced bioavailability. Together, Zinc and Magnesium are involved in hundredâs of enzymatic pathways and are crucial for inhibiting heavy metals, chemicals, pesticides and other toxins from attaching to tissue. Zinc also acts as a potent antioxidant, while Magnesium also assists in the proper function of Glutathione (the bodyâs most important antioxidant). Best taken at night before bed to assist with relaxation and sleep as well!
- Raw Greenz is 100% organically grown Wheat, Barley and Alfalfa grass. Together they contain an abundance of vitamins, minerals, antioxidants, protein, fibre and omega 3âs essential to strengthen our cells as well as detoxify and protect our liver and blood. Best to consume first thing in the morning to maximise the effects of all the vitamins, minerals and antioxidants on an empty stomach.
-Fill The Void is a blend of superfoods high in protein, high in fiber, essential fatty acids, minerals, vitamins and antioxidants designed to âfill the voidâ in your daily intake of food. Can be taken any time during the day and add it to a smoothie!
- Glyco-whey comprises fast and slow releasing proteins which will enable every organ to function optimally by providing key amino acids to assist in enzymatic activity and help to repair just about every cell in the body affected by stress and inflammation. If youâre not already getting enough protein from diet, this is an essential nutrient to be consuming every meal.
*BONUS* To help improve your body's digestion, absorption, detoxification and immunity try to consume pre/probiotics (garlic, onion, raspberries/sauerkraut, kombucha, kimchi); Apple Cider Vinegar; lime,salt and warm water daily!

Experiment time!
New product out from that will be coming to www.clearcutperformance.com soon!
From the words of ATP science - natural sources are more easily absorbed and used in the body than synthetic, man-made goo excreted from the ass of a genetically modified bacteria.
If you've listened to any of their podcasts you'd quickly realise how passionate they are about researching the best quality ingredients and formulas to make their products stand out from the rest.
I'm currently taking Cort RX and trying out the new Multi Food. So far, within 4-5 days of use I've noticed I'm waking up feeling a lot more fresh and very relaxed (even moreso from the usual) after a restful sleep (2 Cort RX before bed - regulate cortisol/stress). Then having 1 Multi Food at breakfast and lunch which I've found has been giving me more energy through the day - allows for better absorption and utilisation of the nutrients you're consuming!
So far so good đ Nature always knows best!
