| Want to maintain weight and increase stamina |
but don't know where to start? |
| In order to maintain weight it is vital to eat the right foods at the right time. Grazing rather than gorging boosts your metabolic rate, reduces hunger by stabilising blood sugar levels and keeps your energy levels high. At PureTrain we recommend that you eat 5-6 small meals throughout the day allowing you to control the balance between your protein and carbohydrate intake and therefore minimising weight fluctuations. To maintain your desired body weight the combination of a |
| healthy diet, dietary supplementation and an effective exercise regime is vital. This will give you lasting and more sustainable results than diet or exercise alone. We have therefore created an easy to follow PureTrain Healthy Eating Plan that tells you what to eat and the optimum times at which to eat throughout the day. Note: It is also important to drink sufficient water regularly throughout the day to maximise your fitness regimes results. |
| Using dietary supplementation as part of a daily fitness regime can help increase performance by aiding in areas such as muscle development, increasing endurance and reducing recovery times. There are many products available, so at PureTrain we have made it easy by identifying the five key dietary supplements that have been proven to enhance personal fitness and performance. By referring to the PureTrain Healthy Eating Plan you can visually see exactly which PureTrain dietary supplements to use and at what time of the day to use them in order to maximise your training results. |
| It's as simple as remembering 123... For further information about any of the recommended supplements please go to "Why Use Dietary Supplements" You will find helpful advice on what these supplements are and how they can help when used properly during training. For example: Using a maltodextrin carbo- hydrate supplement has been proven to improve performance when used during long periods of exercise and can speed up recovery when taken after training. |
| It is important that regular exercise becomes an integral part of your day to day life if you want to achieve your health and physical fitness goals in the short term and be able to sustain them throughout a lifetime of fitness. At PureTrain we have worked closely with Dominic Marsh, a professional Personal Trainer to develop the highly successful PureTrain Training Programme to help you gain weight and increase strength. For many people gaining weight can seem almost impossible. The best way to build muscle and therefore gain body mass is to train in the gym with weights following a routine based on a 2 week cycle of 3x60 minute training sessions a week, alternating between |
| heavy and light weeks. By rotating inthis way you work on different muscle groups in each session depending on where you are in the training cycle, maximising muscle growth and therefore your overall fitness gains. If you find it hard to gain weight, don't perform a lot of calorie sapping aerobics on your days off. Note: It may be tempting to try to lift heavy every time you train but it is impossible to push every muscle group to its maximum in every session. It is also important to leave at least a day between each training session as the body builds new muscle tissue when you rest, not when you are in the gym! |
