Here’s a question I get all the time from bodybuilders: “If my body manufactures its own glutamine, why do I have to take more?”

Jul 12, 2010 Contributors, General Health & Fitness, Health News, ProSource Podcasts, Product Reviews, Training Tips
I guess I should introduce myself to all of you, what with this being my first blog entry to ProSource and all. But many of you know me already, and the rest of you will get to know me soon enough. Bodybuilding and supplements are a big part of my life, and have been for a long time. That’s who I am.
But anyway, here’s what I really want to talk about. MCT Oil.

KAI’S QUEST CAPTURED IN DVD “A New Breed – Vol. 1 Overkill.”

The Scoop: Just Announced: IFBB Pro Kai Greene releases his new DVD titled “Kai Greene – A New Breed – Vol. 1 Overkill.” Greene’s first bodybuilding documentary film, ” Overkill” is the first release in the “New Breed” trilogy. The flick follows his inspirational and punishing preparation for the 2009 Mr. Olympia contest.
From his standout physique to his unrelenting dedication and philosophical approach, Greene is one of the most talked-about competitors in modern pro bodybuilding. “Overkill” captures his core, showing the day-to-day struggle of intense training and dieting to reach physical perfection.
The “So What?”: The DVD takes viewers inside Greene’s grueling quest, including 7 weeks of isolation in the desert, that ultimately resulted in a 4th place finish at an Olympia debut many fans wanted him to win. Yet, Greene went on to achieve some redemption with successful defenses of his 2009 Arnold Classic and 2009 Australian Pro titles, winning both shows again in 2010.
Andrew Oye’s verdict: Maybe this new film will give more insight into the world of an enigmatic (some say eccentric) athlete among the new breed of pro bodybuilders.

Jennie Finch is perhaps the most well-known and celebrated women’s fast pitch softball player of all time. With her athleticism and competitiveness on the ball field only matched by her grace and beauty off it, Jennie has vastly helped to move women’s softball into the mainstream public eye. At age 28, her list of career accomplishments already reads like the stuff of legend. As a young girl growing up in La Mirada, CA, it was very clear from a young age there was nothing this tall athletic blond couldn’t do on a softball field. Finch displayed excellent hitting and base-running skills and was an absolutely dominant pitcher. After a magnificent high school career in which she went 50-12, with six perfect games, 13 no-hitters, 784 strikeouts, and posted a 0.15 ERA in 445 innings, Jennie moved to Tucson, AZ to play her college ball for the University of Arizona Wildcats. Playing under Team USA head coach Mike Candrea, Finch solidified her status as a young phenom by becoming a three-time All-American and winning the Honda Award as the nation’s top collegiate player her sophomore and junior seasons. She also helped lead the Wildcats to the NCAA championship title as a junior by going 32-0, and setting an NCAA record for consecutive victories, with an astounding 60 wins.

Better Golf, Renegade Style
Feb 16, 2009 Contributors, Training Tips
By John Davies, Founder Renegade Training
When I wrote my first book on Golf, “R-Factor for Golf“, a number of years ago, much of my typical audience was surprised with my choice of topic. In writing the book, it was my intention to address the needs of the sport as well as dispel the myths associated with an endless array of training gadgets and questionable ideas.
Like many well intended volleys, it came on the heels of the constant barrage of hype that surrounds the game. Even as some in the exercise industry have made a “meal” out of golf preparation by slapping the prefix “golf” onto a myriad of exercise classes and resistance approaches in an effort to dupe the public, the current economic downturn has done an efficient job of weeding many of those snake-oil salesmen out of the exercise game. However, getting factual information out to the golf-playing public is still no easy matter.
The essential peculiarity of golf, or “training for golf,” is that regardless of how you train off the course, if you do not carefully monitor your swing, your efforts will be largely wasted. To suggest to the untrained reader anything to the contrary is to display a practical lack of playing knowledge of the game and of the latest technological advancements. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t exercise. It simply means that you should exercise correctly. Read the rest of this entry »
