Circuit Training For Insane Conditioning

You can use all kinds of exercises to put into a circuit but the ideal is to use as basic as possible because if you use too many advanced movements, it can wear you out more than needed. When I was doing Circuits, I would look into more themed type workouts and stick to a more bodyweight style plan. Although they may not look like much, the more rounds you do, the tougher they are.

Should you do Circuits everyday? It depends on your fitness level and the intensity of the workouts. If they're more towards a HIT style, don't go more than 3x a week. If you're looking for circuits to aid in other workouts, I'd suggest using those circuits as finishers to burn off extra fat. If you plan on wanting to do circuits daily, vary the intensity so you don't burn out after something like three workouts in a row. For this let's say you do 10-12 rounds one day, do no more than half the next. You want to have the best recovery possible.

There are some circuits way too advanced for certain people so pick ones that give you a run for your money but not to the degree where you're gassed in the first 2 rounds and your form becomes sloppy, when that happens the chances of injury increases. The very best circuits I've seen were from the Darebee site where you can pick and choose all kinds of circuits for your fitness level. Circuits can be extremely useful for those going out for sports, training for competition, fit for life, weight loss, fat loss, muscle building, strength training and overall conditioning.

Here are a few of my favorites.....

Although these workouts at times go no more than 7 rounds, I like to go to a full 10 at times to really even out the numbers that hit 100-200 total reps of each exercise. These have helped me get in fantastic shape and aid in agility, flexibility and tendon strength. For rest periods, the 2 minute max is ideal but not everybody is meant to rest for that period of time. I feel that if you can rest at max for 2 minutes or the minimum of 30 seconds that's great and it tells you you're in fantastic condition but at the same time, rest as long as needed, not as long as you have to. Many of these workouts are so intense, recovery is of great importance. Some treat a workout more like a sprint than a marathon so adjust accordingly and do what is possible for you and build from there. Deep breathe as much as possible for the rest you have.

To help the site, donate a dollar or more or you can buy one of their volumes that have up to 100 Workouts for you to choose from.

Let The Wild Rumpus Start

I read this book a long, long time ago called Where The Wild Things Are by Maurice Sendak. It is the story of a little boy named Max and it starts out him going to bed without having dinner. While sitting in his room doing time, Max creates this vast and extraordinary world in his imagination where monsters roam a wild forest. He takes the role of King Of The Wild Things.

As he celebrates he shouts out "Let the wild rumpus start," as he and all the wild things of the forest join in a joyous dance and have the time of their lives. The author created a message in one of the main themes of this classic tale on how children handle being bored and frustrated. Now this gets me thinking at times that it isn't just adults with this issue but us adults as well. As adults and getting into fitness or being in it for a while, it does get to a point where you're bored from a routine and having a hard time shifting things around.

This is where Where The Wild Things Are can come in handy believe it or not:

The Wild Things- Doesn't matter if they're monsters or animals, it can be a cure for getting rid of boredom and frustrated entities just like for little Max. Better yet, even moving like a wild beast because Animal Moves are never boring and are fun as hell to do. Frustration would be a thing of the past because these exercises are very effective in channeling that emotion and turning it into happiness and joy just like the celebration Max has for being King.

Imagination- Even for someone like Max learning to cope with boredom and frustration, it can be a major key. Imagination is a powerful tool especially when you exercise. Just IMAGINE being a mighty animal in the wild and having strength and power the average human wished they had. Don't just move all chalantly, really get into being that animal and FEEL what it would be like to have the strength of a gorilla or the agility of a bird, the endurance of a tiger or the jumping ability of a frog. Learn this idea and you can make your results come faster.

The wild things are right here with you, so grab the insane book Animal Kingdom Conditioning 2: Call Of The Wild and dive into a world of movement, imagination and development of awesome strength and conditioning. Your kid can have the same fun as you so grab Wild Animal Fitness For Kids and let their imaginations run WILD and get into the habit of moving like an animal in the Wild Forest.

Now lets all shout out LET THE WILD RUMPUS START!!!!

Taking A Beautiful Form Of Exercise And Over Complicating It

Don't you just get irritated sometimes when some person takes the simplicity of exercise and turns it into a fiasco of over complicated structures? In my research into how Animal Movements work for various reasons and how to apply them to other forms of training, it keeps coming up with over complicated ideals and workouts that just seem to be more trendy than useful. Granted nothing wrong with a trend, it comes and it goes it is that simple but that doesn't excuse the fact that you're taking a beautiful form of nature and turning it into some kind of "Over-Humanized" style that just seems more wrong than right.

Animal Movements are nothing new, but wherever you research, most of the time you come up with a fancy workout that barely talks about the application of the movements themselves and making it look like some infomercial. There's no real simple form anymore and when you do find realistic animal movement training principles, it's rarely even recognized. Yes there is a rule that in order to get the most benefit, we have to cater that movement to the most efficient way possible for us humans because let's face it, we don't have the realistic luxury of moving like a tiger or the grip strength of an ape or even the ability to climb walls like a spider but making it so damn fancy, it sucks the fun out of making it simple and attempting the best way possible for us.

I believe in simplicity and making it something for what it really is and not watering it down into the depths that it destroys the realism and learning process. There are some forms of Animal Movement I do like, like Animal Flow, it is a great combination of locomotion, yoga and break dancing which makes it fun and interesting but I also tend to go beyond just the cool combos. Whenever I do teach somebody certain forms of training, I make it simple, fun and basic because regardless how fit or unfit you are, the basics bring out the greatest foundation. It's like building a house, you don't start with the roof, you start laying the ground work for what it literally builds up to. Exercise in this day and age have become so confusing you don't know where to start.

Our attention spans have decreased quite a bit over a number of years because we feel that if we want something, we need to have it right then and there. If you want results right away, you're not going to succeed the way you envisioned. It takes time, effort and patience because if you tried to shoot straight to the top at anything, it's going to bite you in the ass. When I started walking again, I didn't start out being able to do 100 Squats in a row or hold a bridge for 3 minutes let alone be able to even remotely do a Bear Crawl for 30 straight seconds. I busted my ass to get where I wanted to be and there were days where it sucked and had no motivation but I did it anyway because I made a choice.

The reason why I do Animal Movements frequently isn't because they're trendy or cool to do, I do them because they're amazing teachers and give me a sense of purpose, something that truly gets me into the very core of why I'm so passionate about fitness and I get to do something that not only makes me happy but brings out the best in what I can do. Why can't we just go back to being simple and doing something that isn't going to confuse the F*ck out of you. It's like music; you can have the coolest sounding guitar riff and have a kick ass set of instruments banding together (pun intended) but you'll never have a lasting sound that hits you right in your soul that lasts a lifetime. Simplicity lasts and trends come and go, its a vicious but realistic cycle.

Don't make things complicated and never let some douche tell you to do do 50 different things just to get 5 exercises going. Learn the simple ideals and everything will fall into place. 

Isometrics: A Top Method For Shaping The Body

Back in the 1960's, Isometrics was a huge trend that really hit it off with athletes and president John F. Kennedy at the time. It teaches the ideal method of pushing, pulling against an immovable object or using muscle against muscle. The funny thing is, it goes beyond the physical yet the fraction of the population really understands that. There are a lot of ways to use isometrics and one is through Muscle Control which was taught by legendary Physical Culturists Maxick & Otto Arco. Another way to work Isos is by using your own body as self resistance or you can use a wall, a doorway, a bench or anything where you can't move the muscles themselves yet in a state of contraction or flexing.

Bruce Lee was a big advocate of Isometrics after coming back from a near fatal back injury, legendary Iowa wrestler Dan Gable made Isometrics a big part of his arsenal due to their abilities of giving him pinning strength that even guys twice his size had no clue how to handle. The Great Gama who was undefeated in 5000 matches used Isometrics to men even far heavier than him look like lightweights when he threw them and Gama was well over 260 pounds of pure muscle in his prime. Isometrics aren't just exercises that make you strong; they can be healers too as was part of the experimentation of using Isometrics to help heal injuries from wounded soldiers of WW2.

There are a limitless number of exercises that can be used as isometrics ranging from bodyweight to weights, holding up certain objects such as stones, kegs, farmer's walk, bending steel and more. There is no limit to what your imagination can come up with. It can even sculpt your body into a lean, mean fighting machine using specific methods to help rid of unwanted bodyfat and make muscles denser and hardened. They don't take long either as you can get an awesome workout in under 30 minutes. With a specific form of breathing, you an even lower blood pressure and get a great cardio affect out of it as well.

Do your research and look into more of utilizing Isometrics as a part of your program and if you're a MMA Fighter, think of the punching power and speed you can possess and not to mention some serious grip strength plus having lethal tendon power when you slap on submissions. I is essential for those from all walks of life.

Tapping Into The Animal Spirit

Today, let's tap into something that we should be doing more often than not and that's unleashing more of the animal within us. We were meant to be naturally strong and incredibly mobile. Inside the soul of all creatures on this planet and in the universe, move naturally without getting all hopped up on typical exercise.

Many of us humans on this planet do exercise because in reality, we're not moving in a natural state that is organic, flowing and instinctive. Sounds like B.S doesn't it? Sad thing is, that is the case. Closing ourselves off is more natural than we are lead to believe. According to society, we go by these rigid rules and stiff structures. Losing our instincts and organic state of being has become more of a problem and you're a fool if you don't see it.

We put ourselves into little packets and feel like we can't get free, well newsflash bro, you were lead to do that. We all have the need to express our true calling and when we limit our way of showing this, we feed that limitation. How can we put a fire on this disease and burn it to ashes? Let's start by expressing ourselves more. Get out of that little bubble and put forth your ability to be free and little by little let those limitations go. Explore what your body is capable of. Move like a wild animal.

One of the steps you must take to get out of your comfort bubble is by letting yourself be silly. Not so much childish but more childlike. Being too serious is an expression of rigidity. You don't have to always be graceful but eventually with practice, you can get better and it can inspire someone to do the same.

We all have a form of talent but to truly unlock it, it is important to practice and find the best possible ways that keeps you being expressive and full of exploration. Switch things up if you get bored or find a solution to what doesn't work and find what does and take advantage of it. We don't always know how good we really can be if we don't step up and take a shot. Regardless of what you do, there will be limitations that you can't control but that is ok, make the most of what you can do and learn how to adapt.

Be expressive, move like the wild beast within and unleash that spirit within you. Once you get a hold of it, never let go, learn more about it and be free with it. 

How Long Does An Animal Workout Have To Be?

Depending on your fitness level and where you're at in terms of progression, it's all on an individual. There's no set limits to what you want to do with Animal Movements because unlike other forms of exercise, Animals keep you moving in all sorts of directions and will determine where you're at and what you can strive for. For beginners, its good to start with 5 total minutes (30 sec.- 1 min. per animal of 5) and as you get better, add time or repetitions. You get to decide.

Some days I don't have a ton of energy to do a big playout of animal moves but I always get in at least a few minutes. On days where I have a great amount of energy, I'll go sometimes 30 minutes or longer. You get to pick and choose what you want to do and like the animals, go on instinct and not by necessity. That's not what the Animal Moves are all about.

If you were to time yourself, you can do it one of two ways; you can set an allotted time and just go from there whether it's playing the dice game, tag with a buddy, circuit style to see how many rounds you get or you can test yourself and go non-stop. The second would be to just use a stopwatch and when you feel like you've had enough, just press stop. Like I said, there's no set limits to this method of exercise, it's not about rushing it or be fixated on sets and rep schemes. Make an adventure out of it.

Animals in the wild really don't have concept of time, they move fast to run from being eaten or catch what they want to eat. They just move and use instincts and skills developed when they were little. It is the same with exercise, do what works for you and use your brain and not a controlled entity. You're not pavlov's dog my friend.

If you're pressed for time, just do a few minutes as fast as possible, believe me its an ass kicker in itself. Learn the movements and create what you want out of them and in return, you'll be in the shape you were meant to be in. Let them be useful and use your wits and training to get the very best out of your fitness.

Old School Muscle Building You Can Do Anytime And Anywhere

How healthy would your body be if you were capable of doing anything similar to the guys in the video above? What if you had complete mastery over your muscles and can move at will individually? 

A long, long time ago somewhere in Europe, there lived a man named Max Sick. He wasn't the healthiest child at any stretch since he had rickets and through the art of learning Muscle Control, he transformed his body, changed his name to Maxick and became one of the top muscle control artists in the world and developed incredible strength. He weighed no more than 150 lbs. but every inch of him was covered in muscle. Only Otto Arco and a couple other men could match him. 

You have to admit, that's pretty awesome. These attributed their strength to muscle control but is it really the only exercise you need? You got to understand that although muscle control is a great piece of the puzzle in the development of real strength, having the aid of other exercises such as weights, bodyweight and so forth can bring the entire formation of your development to a complete blueprint.

What's really bad ass about the practice of muscle control is that it can be apart of the routine you're currently doing or you can do it as a stand-alone workout. It helps protect the joints, infuses highly oxygenated blood and gives you a powerful endorphin high. It doesn't take that long to do but if you wish to go a little longer for an awesome workout, you most certainly can do so. Believe it or not, it isn't as taxing on the muscles as most exercises are. As a matter of fact: with the flexing and relaxing, it can actually aid in recovery from other forms of exercise.

You can do this type of training anytime and anywhere. It is one of the most effective ways to wake up in the morning especially if you practice the abdominal series of exercises that Maxick & his partner Monte Saldo taught people that can help strengthen the internal organs so you can have greater digestion, keep things flowing and easier elimination. Find out about this amazing and unique course that actually shows both in photos and on video how to properly do the exercises step by step. Get the most out of your life by increasing your health, vitality, virility and hormone levels. 

What Is Superior And Why So Many Bold Claims

The fitness world has so many giant egos that it is a miracle it stays within the planet but in all fairness, with that many, you're squeezing the life out of everyone else and filling up what you believe is god's gift to the world. Claiming to have the greatest course or having the most top secrets to get extremely strong, very fast and revolutionize the way fitness is done doesn't make you the greatest thing on earth, it just makes you more of an ass trying to make a buck.

There are athletes all over the world that have incredible physiques and have enormous knowledge of what to aquire that makes them the best in their field. The sad truth is, only a fraction of athletes in all sports are the cream of the crop. When it comes to working out; the idea of using techniques, schemes and timing is nothing new. You do not have the best course of all-time, nobody does. What you have is an idea of what others can use to create a better version of themselves. Just about any program can be useful but far less than a few truly work in the capacity of an individual's strive to the best for them. 

You'll hear things like "Get 6 pack abs in only 5 minutes a day", "Giant muscular arms are within your grasp if you practice these techniques", "gain your true genetic potential if you pay $1999.95 for my services", "Have the body of your dreams when you learn my secrets for the price that cost less than your yearly gym membership" and who can ever forget "Click here if you dare to learn the deepest, most in-depth form of exercise that not only transforms your body but gives you knowledge your friends will be astounded by." It all goes back to the snake oil salesman and for that matter even further. People get so caught up in the mystique and broken promises of better health and easier ways to have a body that looked like it was carved from granite. 

Many programs work and it is fact, but not everything is meant for everyone. Trends are always roaming around and every few seconds somebody starts something that ends up being spread out and called onto the masses as the net big thing. Things like crossfit is not meant for everybody no matter how much they put themselves into, certain exercises are not meant for everyone due to either a condition, a deformation, understanding of coordination and structure. Some gyms are not meant for certain people. It comes down to what a person needs that caters to their goals and gives them the opportunity to learn and experiment, if it works than keep using it and adjust accordingly, if not then stop wasting your time trying to make it work and move on. It's ok to not use a program that isn't working for you, the world doesn't stop and it's not your fault. 

When you get sucked into something good, bad, ugly or downright weird, it's very difficult to get out of it. Sometimes we become so enthralled with something that we forget why we're into it in the first place and what it really does or doesn't do for you. I don't rely on one little thing to make everything else seem inferior, I look into things that peak my interest and take bits and pieces of the knowledge I've gained and use to my advantage. Sometimes we do things because it is what everybody else is doing, you want to fit in and be a part of something no matter how ridiculous it is. There are things that I cannot believe people actually pay money for; it isn't about the cost it is more the reasoning and what they brought themselves to actually go through with it. 

There are so many courses and programs all over the net, social media, books, videos, cds, streaming and more that literally claim it is the very best out of everything else. It's like a little kid watching a cartoon that seems innocent but have little things go way over their heads the kid doesn't see it or hear, it's the same thing with fitness courses. Some have different points of view and exercises catered to a specific demographic but when you water it down and dig deeper, everything has a similarity somewhere even down to the smallest fraction of movement or hold. No matter how many weightlifting courses you buy, most of the time you'll see the same exact exercises just tweaked to a more subtle way to what the course is programmed into. Same thing with bodyweight exercises; many variations of push-ups, squats, ab work and movements that blend together to form a version of what a course teaches and programs the individual reading and applying. There's always going to something that's creative but yet very little have been known to be CREATIVE. 

This doesn't mean you shouldn't learn anything. Find what is useful and gives you a purpose of what brings you to your goals no matter how small or big because we all have goals and the one thing that makes us similar is that there's always an end whether when it starts, stops in the middle or reaches the end. Don't fall for the bold claims people put out there, research and find what can help you to tackle things for your life. Don't always look at the mythical tales or epic tales of what something someone claimed to use that "worked", look for the idea of what it can do for you. There's always going to be some huge story about something and how a person goes from weak to strong within a period of time and you'll see many times over "I've tried everything else and this was the one thing that worked", it worked for them and there's no such of "trying everything" because in reality, they've only tried what was to their knowledge. 

Superiority is more ego than anything else. Don't find what is "SUPERIOR", find what gives you the greatest benefit in what works and get rid of what doesn't because what doesn't work for you doesn't meant it won't work for somebody else. It's a tradeoff and like the old saying goes "Another man's junk is another man's treasure." 

Moving Like An Animal In The Morning

As long as I can remember, I've never really been a morning person. Was never the kind of average guy that gets up, has a cup of coffee and than drive off to a dead end job; first of all I hate coffee and rather jump an awesome cup of Spark mixed with Rehydrate and I just never could live in a dead end job and wanted to be happy, make money that made feel worthy and really accomplished. For most people, waking up sucks and you never feel like you got enough sleep and you're not always fond of the people you have to see everyday. What if you switched gears with your mindset and found a way to wake up with gusto and ready to tackle the day. It has been said that within the first hour of your day, its going to make or break the rest of it.

First off, how you bring out yourself starts in your mind and what you feel starts with your heart. Nobody wants to wake up miserable and feeling like crap, that always spells disaster unless some miracle happens and you magically become this overbearing sweet person. Plus you never want to start your day dull, tedious and downright boring as hell. Doing the same routine and feeling close to the same way all the damn time. I'd say switch things up a bit and move like an animal in the morning. You don't have to start out being all giddy and busting with life, just move for 30 seconds and build from there. Add 10 seconds each morning until you're doing a full minute or more of movement. Stretching everything out, waking up the lungs and having some fun little by little before work.

When you move like a wild animal, you're opening up the energy in your body, creating endorphins and developing a strong brain as you shift your arms and legs in various directions. You don't even need to start out with an advanced movement, just do what you can do for 30 seconds and build it up from there. As you get stronger, make it more interesting. When you release endorphins, you're unleashing that happiness trigger in the brain and opening up channels in the body that releases that feeling good mechanism.

Be a bear, duck, crab, rabbit, gorilla or whatever other animal you want to be. Do more than one, it is up to you. Start moving and than start getting ready for work and see how much better you'll feel.

Why Is Stress So Serious To Your Health?

I think you can agree that sometimes there is just too much stress in life…

Maybe because of school, work, parenting or a number of other culprits, but there are options to help with that.

One of which is a natural 100% herbal adaptogenic formula (described in detail below).

But first….

Why is Stress so Serious to Your Health?

Long-term, uncontrolled stress can lead to a variety of ailments, including high blood pressure, heart disease, heart attacks, strokes, and depression.
When under stress, the body releases the stress hormones cortisol and adrenaline to help cope with the situation. This causes the heart to beat faster and increases blood pressure.
Unhealthy stress coping mechanisms like smoking, drinking too much and overeating can contribute to heart disease.
Stress has become so common in our world today based on our hectic lifestyles, that most people just assume it's natural and that there isn't anything they can do about it.
But that's WRONG!

Stress can be managed.

There are actually a lot of small things you can incorporate into your daily routine to help manage stress. Eating healthier and making better food choices, taking a short brisk walk, stealing 10-15 minutes out of your busy schedule to sit quietly and meditate, and there are even herbs that can help.

The Spartan Adaptogenic Formula

 This blend had all the right herbs and adaptogens to help you combat stress and relieve fatigue. Adaptogens fight all kinds of fatigue and allow our body to adapt and function better.

This special blend includes the following herbs:

Rhodiola Rosea is a root that clearly has some amazing effects here in assisting with fatigue and more. This was the original plant from which the term adaptogen came to be.

Eleuthero, previously known as Siberian Ginseng, comes in a close second.

Schisandra, a Chinese berry, may look like a laggard here, but it also has other far-reaching effects helping digestion, skin, liver detox and more.

Check out this research…

This pharmacological profile is from an article by Panossian and Wikman, that was published in Pharmaceuticals 2010, Effects of Adaptogens on the Central Nervous System and the Molecular Mechanisms Associated with Their Stress-Protective Activity. It was a review of all the other science and studies on these three amazing adaptogens.

Try the Spartan Adaptogenic Formula for yourself.

P.S. Check out what Brett had to say about his experience with Spartan Formula...

“I feel like a freaking Spartan. And I feel a little weird writing that in a review, but it’s true. I’m a 38-year-old business owner. I’ve been taking this for about a week to week and a half and the mental clarity and energy I’m experiencing is pretty remarkable. I also feel a little more aggressive…like a need to get a work out in. Anyway, I’ve been a supplement guy forever in terms of vitamins and the basics. I’m new to this stuff, but it’s been amazing so far.”

It's Party Time....P-A-R-T Why? Cause I Gotta

For you young kids out there, there was a movie that came out way, way, way back in 1994 called The Mask that helped launch Jim Carrey into the stratosphere of Comedy Films. One of my favorites as a kid and got even funnier as an adult. Now why would I would be talking about a movie when this is supposed to be about exercise? Here's the answer.

I came across a fun workout to do today to activate my muscles and wake up my body. The moment I saw the title of it, I immediately thought of the film because it's one of Jim Carrey's lines in the movie when he puts on the mask for the first time. Figured I'd give it a shot since it looked pretty damn easy. No rest and did all 7 sets it required for the Level. Now this is not meant as a regular workout or a replacement, it is for active recovery or as a warm-up or even as a finisher to your current workouts. It stretches and strengthens the muscles of the shoulders, core and knees.

Something quick to do to stay active and keeping up your energy. You can do this in the morning before work, after or before a workout at the gym, keeping muscles loose after a walk or swim in the pool/lake/ocean, you can do it anywhere. We want to keep our bodies limber and strong especially as we get older so why not do something fun to keep up the quality of life?

Here is the Workout if you wish to do it, very simple, quick and I encourage you to mimic good ole Stanley Ipkiss wearing the mask.....

If you want to see classic 90's Comedy, than watch The Mask. Awesome movie and it's Jim Carrey at his best when he became a legend. 

Little Known Benefit Of Animal Exercise (NSFW)

There are so many benefits from Animal Exercises; there's increased athleticism, conditioning, agility, functional fitness & strength. In addition to these benefits, there's one rarely mentioned and the main reason is it is because those who discover it, keep it to themselves. It is the development of greater sexual energy or increased libido.

When you move like a wild animal, your body shifts into overdrive because you're using multiple muscles in one shot. This leads to a more positive aspect of endorphins, powerful energy throughout the central nervous system and because of how you use the legs during certain exercises, you're increasing natural growth hormone. It aids in the energy of the pelvis and puts a great impact on the sex organs. This helps with creating extra pleasure when you have sex with your partner.

2 Animal moves that I found to increase libido is the Bear Crawl and the Chimp Walk. Although one uses more limbs, the chimp walk is a profound movement that targets the legs in a unique way. You're basically in half squat and walking in that position; really hitting the lower body to the degree that when done consistently, you can increase lung power and endurance. Now imagine what that can do for you in the bedroom. The bear crawl is pretty simple, get on all fours and start moving. You're targeting everything in this movement and if done in a sprint, talk about fire in the loins. Your sex drive can go through the roof and feel like an 18 year old kid again. Not just energy for great sex but aids in weight loss, fat loss and increased metabolism.

Sex is a beautiful thing period. It is the bonding of two people and having amazing energy and pleasure. How can you go wrong when you can build your body moving like an animal and having the ability to go at it like rabbits lol. Start moving like an animal a few minutes each day and see where that leads. Build a foundation and I dare you to tell me that it didn't help your sex life.

If you want to add supplements to your training to aid in the process of increasing your libido naturally, here are a few things that can help.

Animal Movements For Healthy Weight Loss And Fat Loss

Good morning everyone. Normally i'm not a morning person but my body decided to get up and move and not let me sleep, so I figured what the hell let's do something. Got in some DDP Yoga today for around 20+ minutes of stretching and strengthening.

Losing weight and losing unwanted fat can be a real chore and it is never easy to be consistent. Last year around this time, more like in April I was in still great shape but was heavier than usual; around 275 lbs. I had just moved into a new place with my fiance and learning how to handle the household chores and getting food and all that stuff, I decided to change a couple things and do more of the type of exercise I love which are animal moves.

After a change here and there and focusing a lot on Animals, my body began changing again and over the course of a year I had lost nearly 30 pounds going from 275 down to near 245. Although the change in my eating helped some, I personally feel it was the animal movements that made the biggest difference. The reason why is because unlike other methods (Other than burpees or sprinting) Animal Movements hit multiple muscles at the same time and it doesn't matter if you move fast or slow, the exercises force you to use every inch of your being and strengthens you everywhere.

For a while doing the Animal Dice Game, I was doing an average of 600-800 reps total a day of the movements. Some days I was doing more than 1500 and over the course of a day I did nearly 2000. When you put your body through that almost daily, you're bound to change and start shaping like an athlete sooner rather than later. They're also a powerful de-stresser because if you have anxiety or under pressure, full of stress, it can cause problems like unwanted weight gain, raising blood pressure and inflammation. When you start to de-stress, your body becomes calmer, more fluid, the muscles have a greater chance of recovery and your CNS functions at a more positive rate.

When you move multiple muscles in different directions at a higher rate, you're generating a greater metabolic stimulation which aids in digestion, burn calories faster and generate greater natural Growth Hormone. This helps with getting rid of fat and lose weight. Moving on all fours or jumping is a mighty task and when you move your arms as if they were legs, you're bound to find out what that does to your body. Doing these movements I have lost a great deal of weight which was never really my intent or even easy for me to begin with but it also changed not just how I feel, but how my body flowed and the strength I possessed. I began to move faster, have a greater sense of conditioning and acquiring agility not many have.

Start moving like an animal and with consistency you will begin to see things in a whole new light. The energy you will create, the strength to handle awkward positions, building a level of stamina that gets people's attention and the ability to transform into an athletic specimen. Crawl like a bear, walk like a crab, jump like a rabbit, pounce like a puma and run like a greyhound.

Here is a little background on this amazing herb, if you didn’t already know!

CLICK HERE to visit a detailed product page where you can learn more about this great herb, read reviews and see what all the fuss is about

The so-called “active” constituent of Epimedium (Horny Goat Weed) is icariin, a unique flavonoid. What is special about this molecule is that it is a PDE5 inhibitor. This probably doesn’t mean much to you, but did you know this is what is in the various Erectile Dysfunction drugs?

PDE5 is an enzyme that breaks down the result of nitric oxide with cGMP pathway, causing the erectile tissue to lose its blood flow.

This is just one of the effects of Horny Goat Weed. Horny goat weed also helps to boost nitric oxide, not just inhibit its breakdown working well for athletes and promoting healthy sexual function.

· Organ Meridians affected: Kidney and Liver

· Tonifies the Kidney Yang

Animals On The Brain

More and more these days it is becoming clear that animal exercises are my bread and butter of conditioning type training and developing strength and agility from a variety of angles. Even after I wake up on some days I just want to move and work my brain through physical movement. The way your body moves and transitioning those neurons in the brain down the spinal cord through animal exercise takes on a whole new meaning to Physical, Mental, Emotional and Psychological Health.

As you move through either opposite arm/leg, hopping on one leg or shifting side to side or forward like a gorilla, your electric impulses create a stronger reaction and open up a chain of muscles you normally don't use like for instance; regular walking, sprinting, yoga and other methods of exercise. You're generating strength through these impulses. Think about it; using your arms as a second pair of legs, creating patterns in your jumping movements, utilizing a variation whether beginner, intermediate or advanced you're using areas of the brain that don't get the usual attention. It doesn't matter if you're right or left brain dominant, you're developing greater potential on using your brain's capacity on a very unique scale.

Yor core doesn't just get stronger and more mobile, it aids in the realm of more than just developing muscle; it strengthens your digestion and strengthens the internal organs. It doesn't matter how big, small or strong or weak you are, if your organs can't keep up there's something wrong there. The mental aspects puts you in a greater state of ease. Your mind can be stronger and have clearer entities for a more powerful memory, be able to do tasks at a greater rate and because of those impulses, it can even generate a greater sense of intuition. From an emotional standpoint, animal movements create powerful endorphins and help relax the body's tense state. Negative stress can lead to not just mental but very much so just as equal physical problems such as inflammation, uncontrollable nerve impulses, headaches, migraines, high blood pressure and anxiety. When you move like a wild animal, it can be so intense that the moves force you to breathe differently and teaches the aspects of moving while relaxed and not overly tense. If you put too much tension into a movement it can do some physical harm but if you utilize the muscle's ability to contract and relax in a controlled state, it can wear off that emotional stress and and send you into another realm of happiness and calmness.

The brain can be very unpredictable and we haven't even hit the top level of knowing the full potential of it. Scientists to this day are baffled as to how the brain truly works in how we function and how it encompasses a total change after trauma or by some miracle can turn someone who was once an angry person into this amazing and positive individual. They know quite a bit about the brain but haven't scratched the surface yet. The brain can create erratic energy that sends impulses into the bloodstream and give someone great strength or have the nerves go all over the place it's very difficult to stop. Certain diseases/conditions like Alzheimer's, Tourette Syndrome and others have issues with brain function and without proper conditioning for the brain, can lead to a life of misery and suffering. There are certain conditions and diseases that are so far out there that no matter what you do, it just won't go away and it is sad on that count. I myself have had brain trauma that won't ever go away, sure I've made progress in my lifetime but there are things about me that can't fully be explained and areas of my brain are still and always will have problems.

The decision that I have made to not give up and do forms of physical exercise that makes me stronger both inside and out has been a struggle but has given me a stronger sense of purpose that there are ways to build the brain without drugs or excess stimuli and do so with progression systems that just about anyone regardless of age or sex can do. My mission is to spread the word on animal movements and help others find a way to utilize their bodies to make their brains stronger. I was affected at a very young age and was told I would never be that smart or being told I wouldn't have lived passed 2. Unleash the beast and prove everyone wrong not for the sake of proving to them, but proving to yourself.

Transform Thinking And Anxieties By Relaxing The Mind With Blue Vervain Tincture

Busy with the holiday run around? have time to relax? feeling wiped out?

Too many people too often run themselves into the ground and forget to take care of what is most important - YOUR BODY and HEALTH

For this reason, Lost Empire Herbs have decided to bring on Blue Vervain in Spagyric tincture form.

It transforms thinking and anxieties by relaxing the body and mind.

The effects can be immediate in this regard. A bitter nervine is something most can feel right away.

Like anything else, this will not work for everyone. But for those specific areas where this herb works best, its effects can be like magic.

However, the point in all of this is that there is another class of herbs that are not trendy, popular or hot right now.

I’m talking about nervine relaxants.

Like our new Blue Vervain Spagyric Tincture.

The people that use coffee too much, the people that use adaptogens too much, tend to be the hard-driving types already.

Once again, this is part of our culture, so it covers lots of people, myself included.

What they need more so is to be able to turn it off.

Just look at all the sleep problems so many people have. Many of these are about the lack of the ability to relax and let go. The incessant mental chatter leading to insomnia. The tension in the body that keeps you up.

A bitter nervine such as Blue Vervain allows you to relax. The feeling of taking the tincture is so immediate that it might startle some people.

Specific indications that this may be precisely what you need include:

· Type A Personalities

· Entrepreneurs

· Anyone that has a hard time stopping working

· Anyone that “burns the candles at both ends”

· People that live in their heads

· People that make lots of lists (especially if you’ve ever written down an item on a to-do list that was already done so that you can cross it off and already feel satisfied)

Some ways that some used this tincture include:

· After a hard workout

· After a workday is over, to transition to being with the family.

· Throughout the day when you get stressed about something.

· Before sex

Herbalist Matthew Wood says Blue Vervain “is indicated in cases where people are intensely driven but do not have the energy to sustain their drive. They often are stiff-necked, metaphorically and literally. They suffer from extreme tension in the neck, yet the neck sometimes weakens and the head drops slightly. These people are often thin and lack the physical sustenance necessary to carry them through the intensity of their work habits and drive. They are constantly exhausted, yet constantly striving.”

That is why many love this herb! It is perfect, and for lots of friends.

Right now it’s $5 off, so go pick up a bottle or a few here.

Going At Your Own Pace To Progress

When you have groups of people or you watch and follow along on a DVD, you're going at the same pace as everyone else. It is a great motivator and it feels like you're a part of a team but not everyone is motivated that way. For some of us, following along just doesn't connect with our brains and we end up being discouraged or just dont have the capacity to keep up with the instructor and/or group.

I learned long ago how to be my own trainer and do what works for me in an effective manner where progression comes natural and flows. I have gone through the areas of following along with an instructor and a group of people but what I was actually doing is getting an idea of how an exercise works. Truth is, I have a totally different chemistry and i'm just not meant to be a part of the same speed, tempo and progression as everyone else. I go by intuition and don't believe in going through exercise so hard it hurts and pushing through pain. I know pain; I've had two broken legs, dented my knees, busted my head open and dropped nearly 200 pounds onto my chest hard from a bench press back in high school. Pain is not something I wish on anyone.

I personally feel that when you progress on your own and learn to be intuitive, you get a very hard sense of what it's like to learn about your body internally and externally. The majority of people follow along because that's what your programmed to do, to be the same as everyone else and feel like you're a part of something. I get it, I've been there and I have done it and it does feel good but at the same time, you're also missing out on yourself more than you think. I'm not saying you shouldn't have a good time, there's nothing wrong with that and you get to meet and learn from new people and it is better than nothing to get in shape. The truth is that both have great benefits and one doesn't necessarily mean their better than one another but there are three types of people in this case; 1 is very intuitive and has better chances of progressing on their own, 2 is that a person likes being with a group or loves to follow along and that works well for them and 3, a person who can do both and strives to learn progressions from both sides and can feed of both.

Now for those playing the home game here; I'm only talking about fitness and exercise, not MMA or Law Enforcement/Military, these ARE things you want to pay attention to and listen and follow along because these things can be life saving and are critical to the development in your field of this caliber. I'm a big fan of Catch Wrestling and Submission style fighting but I can't afford an instructor so I have to make alternatives and learn from other sources on this type of training, I do need an instructor and learn hands on like everyone else and I'm missing out on critical things so I understand that dilemma. I have DVD's that I observe and make key points on and learn pretty well with that but on the other side of the coin, once you have hands on training, there's nothing like it. I have a very small crack of training in CACC from a former friend who recently passed (check out the article Keep Those Hands Up Grandpa for more info) so it is important from this point of view that going at your pace in this sense needs to be with real people and hands on.

 When it comes to exercise, learn and do movements/holds the best way you can and find important elements in how your body handles a particular exercise. If it doesn't work for you than learn what can work and it your abilities making it work for you instead of against you. Experiment and tune into your intuition. Be your own person the best to your abilities because for me, being like everyone else is boring, shallow and unnatural. You were born to be different and you were meant for things that come natural to you, practice what gives you the greatest benefit.

Power Up On Pine Pollen

It gets old, right?

You lead a busy life. You have responsibilities to your family, your job…

But when was the last time you thought about your responsibility to your body?

Now, if you think the dusty old duties of eating right and exercising are all you need, you are DEAD WRONG.

Recent science proves you've got one HUGE new health duty you (and millions of others) are ignoring...

It's a silent new health disaster caused by modern food and drug industries that NO amount of exercise and healthy eating can cure...

Combating Hormone Imbalance isn't impossible...

Specifically - a little-discussed growing epidemic called Estrogen Dominance...

Not sure Estrogen Dominance is that big a deal?

Well let me ask you this:

Did you know BOTH women's AND men's bodies already produce both Estrogen and Testosterone naturally?

It's true! Everybody needs and produces a bit of both - and maintaining the delicate balance of Estrogen to Testosterone in our individual bodies used to be so easy no one even noticed it...

...it has become increasingly difficult for both men and women to avoid estrogen dominance, and the side effects to your health are extreme.

There is something that can help….

…. Chinese herbalists have been taking advantage of its infinite benefits for thousands of years….

….It’s called Pine Pollen.

The secret behind Pine Pollen is the Phyto-androgens it contains.

Phyto-androgens stimulate testosterone. They work to support the optimization of hormones within our body by balancing out that excess estrogen that we’re bombarded with.

The balance of hormones directly affects how our bodies function. Good balance translates into energy, weight control, sexual vigor, youthful appearance, recovery from daily stress and physical activity and overall sense of well- being.

Imbalance leads to fatigue, sleep disturbance, sexual dysfunction, depression, impaired immune function, chronic illnesses, disease, and ultimately, early death.

Why wouldn't we want to take something that could by far- have amazing health benefits inside and out? Especially with a 365 Day Money Back Guarantee.

Instead of shelling out thousands for painful, unsure, and time-consuming hormone replacement therapies created and administered by the very industry that helped cause this Estrogen Dominance epidemic in the first place, why not get back to basics and go for a purely natural, gentle yet effective, centuries-proven solution?

Want the details on EVERYTHING Pine Pollen can do for you?

Click here for all the details and grab your bag or 2 today.

You have a responsibility to yourself and your loved ones to maintain your health fully. Don't let your Estrogen Dominant imbalance become impossible to fix!

A Crazy Amount Of Baboons Running The Country

"Do you realize because of you this city is overrun by baboons?"

"Isn't that the fault of the voters?"

Great joke from the movie Naked Gun 2: The Smell Of Fear.

Baboons get a bad rap for being called a Congress when you group them together. The truth is, the group is really called a harem. Saying they're a congress is mostly poking fun at our "astounding" political leaders. If I may be Frank (not Drebin), I think it's pretty dumb to call these amazing animals a congress for a lot of reasons but I think you can figure that out on your own.

Unlike the wild beast of a baboon, many politicians are quite egotistical, self absorbed and so full of themselves that are only really out for themselves more than for the people of this country. I'm not a political person, just don't like bullies. As a group, crows are called a Murder which describes many political leaders in and of themselves because of the way they run this country. 

Let me ask you this, why pick on or even degrade Baboons in the first place? If you were to really take a shot at one up close, you've just signed your death warrant. They're incredibly strong, powerful and insanely athletic. If you really observe them, you'll find that the toughest and strongest is the Mandrill. The power this monkey possess is just incredible. In a zoo, a friend of mine observed this magnificent beast and for reason its fur was shaved off but the muscles on its abs were incredibly lean and just downright scary to see. Apparently this monkey would give Otto Arco a run for his money. The Mandrill exercise is one incredibly tough exercise that makes the core work like very few can do and even more so, can even chisel those bad boys in no time just a few minutes a day a few times a week. 

Now I'll remind you, this exercise is only for those who have the guts to go after it, doesn't matter if you're a man or woman. I don't believe those greedy blowtards that call themselves politicians would ever go after a crazy exercise like this. They'll just sit in their office chairs or talk at a rally that will boast lie after lie and remain fat, out of shape, rich sweathogs.  

Sex Week

At Lost Empire Herbs, they've been running products this week on increasing performance in the bedroom and having men feeling like a teenger. Herbs basically helping others get their freak on and come on, who doesn't like good sex? Find out how you can be RANDY and solid as a rock all day long without feeling any of the synthetic side effects that pharmaceutical crap has.

You're going to love it. It's called Horny Goat Weed. The story behind this crazy herb is that a man noticed his goats being in heat a little more than usual after eating these leaves from a particular bush. He gave the leaves a shot for himself and let's just say he and his wife were extremely happy with the effects.

Scientists have figured out the secrets of HGW and the phenomenal benefits of bedroom performance. One component of HGW is its ability to increase blood flow to that part of a man's body. The fine line between HGW and the Pharmaceutical shitstorm those guys have is that HGW has a greater holistic approach in all its compounds. Unlike Die-A-Gra, the body doesn't go completely out of tune so if you're looking for a natural way to boost your sex drive, grab a pack of Horny Goat Weed today. 

Here's one testimonial that may get you on the right path to snatching this up.....

“I’m 60 and a sufferer of diabetes. It had completely destroyed my libido to the point of flat lining. Within two to three weeks of using this product, I was amazed at the results I got from it. I use 1 teaspoon twice a day in my coffee. It seems to go well in hot too.” - Mark

Amping Up My Game In The Animal Dice Game

Before I do any big workouts in the day, lately I have been waking up and one of the first things I do is move around like a Bear in the living room going back and forth. I do a total of 100 Bear Crawls to stretch my lower back and get my body moving and it feels amazing, one day I did 200. I have posted several times about the Animal Dice Game on here and on social media and it helps to give those an extra boost on how they can get more out of the game to get stronger and conditioned.

You can create virtually any workout you want with this game and you'll still get tremendous benefit but for me, I just play by rolling for random repetitions and for the random animal and not expecting anything. I stop when I feel I've had enough and after several sessions lately it has helped me learn when to back off and know my limits because the greater you make the game, the tougher it is. Instead of going the regular repetitions of 1-20, I've taken it as far as doing 5 times that amount per animal.

After you get accustomed to going round after round to shorter reps or steps, sometime you might want to challenge yourself and see how wild you can really be. Try doubles (2-40) and see how that goes for a while. After a few weeks or so amp up to triple reps/steps (3-60), for some animals it's going to make you feel the burn big time and really kickstart those hormones. Each time you amp the amount of times per animal, it becomes even more grueling and even if you start on doubles, you'll be doing less rounds. When I began doing 5 times the amount of reps/steps, it really challenged my stamina, strength to move on certain animals and my conditioning. One animal alone was 200 total reps because for that animal I had to do 100 per leg, talk about brutal. I got as far as 20 rounds doing 5x the reps and that was all I can handle. I'd love to see someone pull that off.

This isn't to teach that in order to be in top condition, you do more and more reps, this is to teach that if you get bored, step it up a bit and be creative. You don't have to do reps/steps; you can do yards, feet, roll for distance if you want to race somebody, roll for time either in seconds or minutes whatever you want to do, make it work for you. I do the steps because that's what I like. I'm not going any higher than 5x the amount of steps because what would be the point? I've already made enough progress to where if I lowered the reps, I can go way longer and not tire out. This is for helping me stay conditioned for whatever else I do. The most steps all together in one workout has been 1000 and only have done that now on 2 occasions.

Do what makes you happy in your animal workouts because regardless of a game/workout you do, you'll get awesome results because animal moves force you to move every muscle and stabilize your core in awkward positions. Imagine what these workouts can do for you in your sport, hauling luggage, carrying groceries, going up stairs, able to go for a while on a walk without fatiguing. In combat sports such as wrestling and football, they can help with your arm strength to tackle or throw your opponent because of the crawling you're using the arms as a second pair of legs or they can help create explosiveness in your legs and have you run down the field or tiring out your opponent on the mat because you're so damn fast, he doesn't know what to do and wastes his energy trying to defend you.

It's more than just a game, it can make you a CHAMPION.

Why I Am A Fanatic On Conditioning

When I was going to the gym between 2003 and 2005, I only went to just lift and see what I can do. I had no aspirations for bodybuilding and wanted to be big and lift heavy. Unfortunately I did get hurt a few times and at 19 I once woke up so sore that everything ached and I felt like an 80 year old man trying to get out of bed it hurt so bad. After my accident, everything changed.

In life, certain things happen to you that just remind you of what you were meant to do. No one intentionally wants their legs broken and to this day, I have no real reason why I jumped off that cliff the way I did it and although it's become a joke to many people, in some twisted and messed up way, the universe made me learn a massive lesson. Everything changed the moment my bones broke. I was no longer this kid that loved lifting, I wasn't going to turn into somebody that gave up or just not do anything after he "gets better." Being in that much pain and nearly mentally broken, I hated myself for the entire duration of those near three months. I hated the fact that I had to be in a wheelchair, I hated that I had to have people help me in that state and I hated that being so young that I questioned my very existence.

Even writing this it has gotten me a little emotional because it is something I can never forget no matter how I try or want to block out. I forced myself to endure and face my demons head on. A lot of people got on my case about not going to rehab even before my last surgery. Got sick and tired of being told what I had to do to heal, the way I was told to take care of myself and having to take things for the pain I was about to endure when I walked again. If anyone should tell me what to do it's going to be me only. When I started out with Combat Conditioning all those years ago, all I cared about was healing myself, just doing Hindu Squats, Hindu Push-ups & the Bridge.

As I started learning more about the type of training I was doing and the history behind it, it became more and more clear that this is what I was meant to do with myself. Bodyweight Training did more than just made me stronger, more flexible and far more conditioned than I could ever imagine; it made me appreciate and value the ability to endure day after day, week after week and year after year of consistent training. I became more than what I was at 20 years old. I love being able to keep going and although it was tiring, I only stopped when I felt the need to, not because I had to.

I had learned from hearing guys like Karl Gotch, Matt Furey, John Peterson, Bud Jeffries, Tyler Bramlett & Logan Christopher that conditioning is your greatest asset not just through a sport but through life and conditioning the mind to endure even when it is at its worst. That's why I have become such a fanatic. It makes me want to punch someone in the face when I hear or read about how some of these courses are crap and the person writing them or making a DVD has no business selling or showing people how to get fit. News flash guys, I don't give a rats ass if a course is original or refurbished from the past, if it gives me something to look forward to and brings me great benefit than I'm damn well going to use it. You can mock these guys all you want that's not in my control but don't you fucking dare tell me that their stuff is crap and have no benefit. These guys saved my life one way or another, they gave me tools that have not only made me the way I Am but gave me opportunities to help people and earn a living. I'm in debt to each person I have listed in this paragraph for different reasons but all with the same ending.

I don't have 6 pack abs, I don't have 5% bodyfat and I damn sure don't have 20 inch arms but here are the things that I do have or can do....Respect for athletes who are very well conditioned, the ability to do 500 Hindu Squats, create any workout I see fit without thinking about it, still lift pretty good weight, knowledge on fitness and certain sports not many know today, swim well at my size, enduring legs, a strong core, a solid and powerful neck and so much more. What I do is not impressive nor do I really care to try to impress anyone but I have fought for what I believe in, endured ridicule and bashing of my lifestyle, being called all sorts of names and even being told what I can do is impossible yet I'm still here and doing what I love and conditioned my mind and my soul to keep going every single goddamn day. That's the true mark of conditioning.

Fatigued And Can't Keep Fighting

Over 40 years ago in the mid 70's, one of the greatest boxing matches happened that became so memorable that if you uttered the words Rumble In The Jungle to an old school boxing fan, he might just smile. It was the fight that former champ Muhammad Ali took on the current champ of the time George Foreman. Most favored good ole George because of the rugged size and strength he possessed. Ali however, had a solid strategy of the famous Rope-A-Dope. This move forced big George to tire out pretty damn quick.

Ali just wore him down and Foreman just couldn't keep up anymore. Getting knocked out in the 8th round, it was clear that if you tire out too soon, you're bound to be knocked on your ass sooner than later. Another fight that baffled everyone was Mike Tyson against Buster Douglas; Tyson was the guy to win yet due to his conditioning, it wasn't in his favor despite his power. What this tells you is that conditioning is your key to success or failure.

You can have sheer size, muscle and strength but if you can't last long enough, it's going to bite you in the ass. This isn't just a thing for combat sports; conditioning is your ticket to lasting in the long run in life as well. You can't function very well if you tire out, period. In the wild, an animal can't afford to be tired because if it does, there goes his meal or he dies from getting captured by a predator. For us humans, quality and quantity of life suffers if we are in poor condition.

If you practice Animal Movements, it'll help you gain your conditioning and won't let you tire out in your other endeavors. It works especially if you're wanting to get rid of unwanted fat. Remember this too; if you're hyperactive or have some issues that get you in that raging set of emotions, find a way to chill out. Animal moves will tame you and get those emotions out of your system, trust me it has helped me a time or two.

Try This Natural T Booster Hit The Gym Harder (And Lose Weight FAST!)

As you get older it gets harder and harder to find the energy and motivation to hit the gym, to gain muscle and lose those stubborn extra pounds.

It’s so much easier to just sit on our butts, watch TV, or browse the internet.

I’m guilty of it. Are you?

What’s really helped me find the motivation to hit the gym is discovering the power of Mother Nature, and changing what I put in my body every day (because a lot of food out there actually makes you tired, sick and lazy… making it even harder to hit the gym, build muscle or to lose weight).

One of the biggest lifestyle upgrades I’ve made, is consuming natural herbs.

One herb in particular, Pine Pollen Tincture (from Lost Empire Herbs specifically) has phyto-androgens (naturally occurring plant steroids) which literally inject your body with the building blocks to create sex hormones (like testosterone).

Pine Pollen Tincture actually raises your T, gives you more energy and makes hitting the gym easier… so you can build more muscle and lose weight faster!

Bacopa The Potent Nootropic With Enhancing Brain Effects

Bacopa has become a favorite among the good customers at Lost Empire Herbs because when you take it, you can almost feel the focus immediately. It becomes a shift in how the brain works which allows you to concentrate at a stronger rate. Not everyone gets that feel right away (like I said, almost) but still a great many do.

If you're a college student or a speaker, you can take it with you to your classes or before you get up in front of people. Midterms can be a royal pain in the ass, especially if you're trying to cram notes together and assignments at any given time and trying your damnedest to prepare. It is incredible for writing because when you are preparing for that brutal paper you've been working on, you can take a dose and quite possibly the words will flow like water.

For quite some time now, kids today have a greater shortage of attention spans, it is scary enough that many can barely read a book let alone even send a freaking tweet. We need a support system that not only gives our minds the strength to endure but making our brains stronger as well. Even though a lot of people can feel the effects right away, others might have better benefits when Bacopa is ingested over a period of time, depends on your levels. Now when it comes down to the nitty gritty, it is a powerful herb that can help you (even possibly prevent) diseases like Alzheimer's, dementia & other forms of brain disorders.

In this day and age, we are hammered with toxins and a ton of those things can end up in our brains, so why not take Bacopa NOW and get the benefits of it. Over many years, this insanely mighty herb has been revered by the hindus; even naming it "Brahmi" after their god Brahma. It has been known to give people the following benefits such as.....

Reducing Stress & Anxiety

Lowering Depression

Enhance Memory, Concentration & Mental Reflexes

Protection Of The Brain & Neurons

Possibly Balancing The Neurotransmitters

& maybe even more.

And now you can too!

Here’s a story from a wife who used Pine Pollen Tincture (the extract of Pine Pollen powder) to help her and her husband regain their sex life, energy, and vitality back in just ONE month.

“Finally a product that does what it says. I bought this for my husband.

He and I have suffered from his no libido, weight gain, and just a lack of energy and zest for life.

He has been taking the tincture every day for just over a month now and we are ecstatic!

I must say that since he teamed up the tincture with Tongkat Ali, we have REALLY noticed how it ’s enhanced the process.

He ’s also noticed more clarity in his mindset, his libido is back and I can’t even keep up with him. We feel more connected and it’s helped our relationship.

He was already on a fitness regime and had lost weight, but he feels like this has helped him with being more motivated. He gets up at 4.30am to do his exercises and he ’s no longer bombing at 3 pm.

Not only has this helped our sex life, but now I have my happy husband back who has found his mojo and loves life."
