Thursday is Shake Day!


Nutrition is a very important part of your strength training - some say it is the most important part. We are what we eat - and regardless of our fitness goals, we need to feed the machine if we want it to work well. Pre and Post-training nutrition (what we eat before and after we train) is critical. If we eat right before we have adequate energy to train hard and stay mentally alert during our work out. If we eat right after the work out our body will have plenty of fuel to rebuild lean muscle mass and metabolize fat stores. One of the best Post Work Out foods is a protein shake - and tomorrow we will be serving the Fairfield Strength/Trader Joe's basic training anti-inflammatory protein shake.

On Thursday after each session we will be preparing and serving a protein shake for our participants to sample. Frozen Pineapple, Mango, Papaya,Fresh Blueberries, Non-Fat Plain Yogurt, OJ, Fat Free Milk, Raw Oatmeal, and Whey Protein will be blended into a very nutritious post work out snack. We still have a few openings in our program - stop by and check it out.

Life is good. Capt
