FAST VS. SLOW DIGESTING PROTEIN . Hey guys 🙋🏻‍♀️! Do you know when to have fast digesting protein vs. when to have slow digesting protein? . Typically you want to have fast digesting protein, (e.g. whey), pre, intra, &/or post workout. Consuming fast digesting protein around these times promotes protein synthesis & allows for a surge in energy & muscle growth & repair. While slow digesting protein, (e.g. casein), is best consumed before bedtime, as it helps to build muscle & prevent muscle breakdown. . HOWEVER, sometimes it is not this simple & plant 🌱 based protein like @modusnutrition pumpkin 🎃 seed blend protein, vs. whey or casein, allows for faster, more efficient absorption & protein synthesis which will in turn help you to build muscle & recover from workouts more efficiently & effectively. . Learn more about FAST VS. SLOW DIGESTING PROTEIN in the Modus Nutrition article, “FAST VS. SLOW PROTEIN ABSORPTION AND HOW IT AFFECTS YOUR BODY” link in bio above 👆🏼or HERE 👉🏼 http://bit.ly/ModusFastvsSlow . Do you prefer whey 🐮protein or plant 🌱based protein & why?? Please share in the comments below 👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼👇🏼I want to know! . Use code ‘ARTEMIS20’ for 20% off your first order of any modus product.

Prioritize Strength Training & The Rest Will Follow. . A few wks ago 1 of my garage gang training clients, asked me if I only had what was in my garage gym, (kettlebells, barbell, etc.), would that be all I needed to stay fit? . My answer, “YES. In fact for over 6 yrs from 2011-2017, with the occasional run or yoga class, it was all I did & it was all I needed to stay fit.” . When @ericgahanatc & I started our former training gym in 2011 I left the commercial gym & spin classes behind & all that was available to me were kettlebells & the occasional run. In fact, I actually STOPPED running COMPLETELY for 2 yrs from 2013-2015 after I ran the Utica Boilermaker 15k (9.32 mi) which completely turned me off to running, & remained lean & fit from heavy lifting & KB training, which included non traditional cardio/conditioning of KB swings, snatches, complexes & chains. . Just since we moved to Vegas have I added back in the occasional indoor cycling class & hot pilates mat class. However 85% of my weekly training remains strength training. . If there is one thing I have learned over my 16yrs working in the fitness industry & 40yrs of moving my body from ballet to martial arts to KB training & powerlifting, it’s to prioritize strength training & the rest will follow. . Yes, you need some conditioning, but small bouts of non traditional cardio like KB swings, snatches, complexes, chains, or HIIT is all you need. . ➡️ TOP LEFT: 7/2011 Utica Boiler Maker casualty, 35yo, BW 116-118#. Training: ~80-85% running & spinning (i.e. traditional cardio), ~15-20% strength training. . ➡️ TOP RIGHT: 5/2016 pre powerlifting meet weigh in BW 112# & went on to back squat 215# at the meet at 40yo. Training: ~85-90% strength training, often heavy lifting, ~10-15% non-traditional cardio e.g. KB swings, snatches, complexes, chains. . ➡️ BOTTOM RIGHT: 7/2017 41yo & SWIPE LEFT 👈🏼: 2018 42yo, BW114-115# no particular goal, training & maintaining. Training: ~85% strength training, often heavy lifting, hot pilates mat, ~15% a mix of non-traditional cardio (e.g. KB conditioning) & traditional cardio like indoor cycling. . Do you prioritize strength training? Plz share below 👇🏼#fitnessfriday

Post Weight Cut Maintenance

After I finished my weight cut with the Renaissance Periodization cutting template on May 14, 2016 (read more in my post Lessons Learned From Cutting Weight) I had some people ask me what will I do next? Will I follow a maintenance phase? Will I post updates after the cut about the maintenance phase? Yes, I have been following a maintenance phase and here are some updates: By “maintenance” that means that… Read More
