THE ISSUE:
Loss of lean body mass can occur during periods of exercise or a weight-loss program. Though the goal may be to lose fat, a weight-loss program consisting of reduced calories and exercise can often strip us of the protein our muscles need to remain healthy and give us the toned, lean look we want. Furthermore, our muscles serve as the engine that burns calories and therefore consumes fat. In other words, our body weight and overall health are heavily reliant on the condition of our muscles. Amino acids are the building blocks of protein, and protein is the building block of muscle. Throughout a weight-loss and exercise program, people need to preserve the muscle they have, and help enhance and define the muscle they are working so hard to gain.

One way to achieve proper protein and amino acid consumption is by eating plenty of protein. Meat, fish, eggs, milk and soybeans all provide complete proteins. Although these foods offer the right amount of protein for healthy muscles, they contain calories or cholesterol that could affect a healthy nutritional balance if consumed in large amounts. In addition, they don’t always contain the wide scope of amino acids that are proven to help build and sustain muscle. Therefore, there are many products on the market today that offer single amino acids as supplements. The body is a complicated system that requires complex solutions. Your muscles require a comprehensive supply of amino acids in amounts that are balanced and effective.


THE SOLUTION: Catalyst™
Catalyst supplement works by providing a blend of essential branched-chain amino acids and L-glutamine to
supply your body with the muscle-building components it needs.* Catalyst helps to repair and protect muscle, and thereby promote lean body mass by providing the essential amino acids that are in short supply.* Other amino acids found in Catalyst such as L-glutamine, L-arginine, taurine and betaine help fuel and maintain your muscles to assist and support endurance and strength.* Used in combination with other AdvoCare® products, such as the Meal Replacement Shakes or Muscle Gain™, Catalyst works to feed the muscles, not fat.* By sustaining your muscles during exercise or reduced caloric intake, Catalyst helps rid the fat, retain the muscle, and leave your body more toned and better defined when used in combination with a healthy diet and exercise program.

Stretching for flexibility

Stretching is such a critical aspect of life. Stretching will not only improve your athletic abilities it will also help prevent injuries. When you stretch it allows your joints to move in their full range of motion.This is also a great technique to get blood to flow to your muscles. When it comes to cheerleading stretching is a huge aspect. Why? because the focus is on flexibility. When my cheerleaders ask me how to get better jumps- my answer is always to stretch daily. So how do you stretch for cheer? - First you never want to start with cold muscles. So first thing to do is is a light jog for 5-10 minutes. After that your muscled will be warm and ready to be stretched out. - Next focus on your major muscle groups and muscles that you use frequently. For cheer, that would be your calves, hamstrings, quads and hips.It is also a good idea to stretch your back and neck. - When you stretch your right side, make sure you are also stretching your left side. - Hold your stretch
