NUTRITION--the foundation for everything!

ALL THE EXERCISE IN THE WORLD IS'NT GOING TO IMPROVE YOUR PERFORMANCE OR PHYSIQUE UNLESS YOU HAVE THE NUTRIENTS NECESSARY FOR MUSCULAR GROWTH/FATLOSS and, conversely, ALL THE NUTRIENTS in the world won't help unless you ALSO EXERCISE CORRECTLY

Sadly, (due to outdated research done in the 60's on couch potatoes which the dinosaur FDA extrapolated to athletes and even now continues to propagandize to the medical community and news media), it is an area often neglected by even elite athletes--university studies have shown and continues to show that most athletes such as gymnasts, dancers, runners, etc. were deficient (or had suboptimum levels for elite performance) in many important nutrients such as PROTEIN , zinc, magnesium, folic acid, calcium, etc.--all important for healthy, strong, vibrant skin, muscle, avoiding shin/forearm splints/stress fractures, etc. (I was one of those gymnasts who was deficient in zinc, calcium, magnesium, and PROTEIN because I grew up believing the B.S. given to me by so-called experts in my nutrition classes & newspapers/magazines!)

The best nutrition book by far (most scientifically supported/researched/documented) is "Optimum Sports Nutrition" by the most excellent Dr. Michael Colgan (scientist/consultant to hundreds of Olympic athletes). It's actually fun to read as Dr. Colgan writes in a refreshingly witty and irreverent style that makes for light but informative and enlightening reading. However, he and his book are a bit outdated (published in 1993) so he's not the last word in sports nutrition/drug performance--he's mostly good but clueless and wrong on a few pharmacuetical topics he doesn't have first hand experience with.

2) The most important nutrients (such as PROTEIN : IT SHOULD BE AT LEAST 33%-50% OF YOUR DIET) that are lacking in most athletes need are explained in concise detail by clicking here to visit my NUTRITION subpage--VERY IMPORTANT!

POSITIVE MENTAL FOCUS/HEALTH--essential reading and the foundation for a brilliant mind!

"Feeling Good" by Dr. David Burns (HIGHLY RECOMMENDED-if you can only read one self-improvement/psych book, this IS IT)

"Nothing is really good or bad, but thinking makes it so"--William Shakespeare

Fears, self-doubts, worry,etc. do not exist in external situations--they exist only in your mind. Positive or negative thoughts can become self-fulfilling prophecies. Clearing your mind of any negatives can be accomplished by "talking back" to the negative voices/thoughts in your head as in cognitive therapy or through meditation--how you perceive reality colors how you experience reality... There's much more to it so click here to go to my POSITIVE MENTAL FOCUS/HEALTH subpage--a MUST READ -- learn how to become a Zen master in no time and have fun doing it-- Life and athletic training is so much more fun if you're Zenned-out :)

GYMNASTICS

MARTIAL ARTS (A Path to Enlightenment--as well as How to Shatter Concrete Slabs, Wooden Boards, and an Attacker's Face)

Most gymnasts and power tumblers, for example, have enough bone density and strength in the legs/heels to shatter wooden boards their first day in martial arts class and can work their way up (like everyone else who has the desire and determination) to concrete slabs.

A good martial arts school will/MUST include sparring(actual fighting--although usually everyone holds back some unless heavily padded) as a major and primary component of training because that is where 90% of the actual learning of what works and what doesn't takes place(there's a big difference between theory(katas) and real life)! There is much, much more (hundreds of books) but I'll distill some of what I consider most pertinent (and fun to read :).. Click here to go to my MARTIAL ARTS subpage for joint-locks/breakers,more tips for breaking stuff,etc. Essential martial arts books are "Tao of Jeet Kun Do" by Bruce Lee and most jiu-jutsu (the lethal Samurai combat version, not the stripped down sport judo version :) books

EXERCISE--the foundation for a chiseled physique and peak performance!

Do you want a NICE, MUSCULAR, TONED PHYSIQUE (as well as doubling the height of your tumbling passes and do iron crosses and press into handstands from the splits)? Then weightlifting(free weights or machines) is the answer! Weightlifting (just 3-4 times a week for about 1 hour) is essential for developing maximum strength for power tumbling! If you're female, don't worry, you won't get huge muscles or turn into Schwarzeneggar (it's impossible since women lack the necesarry testosterone and extra muscle fibers to develop large muscles--women produce 20-40 times less testosterone than men).

TESTOSTERONE IS THE MOST IMPORTANT HORMONE FOR THE REPAIR, MAINTENANCE, AND GROWTH OF YOUR MUSCLES (as well as your libido)! Muscle produces testosterone so the more muscle you gain, the more testosterone, growth hormone, and IGF-1 hormone levels you will have, giving you more energy and making working out much easier and pleasurable!

Conversely, higher fat levels are associated with lower levels of testosterone and growth hormone circulating through your body.

The latest year-long studies and lab results show that CIGARETTE SMOKE (even second-hand smoke) CAUSES LONG-TERM, SIGNIFICANT, SERIOUS DECREASES IN TESTOSTERONE LEVELS and PERMANENTLY DAMAGES/KILLS LEYDIG CELLS (the cells in the testes responsible for producing most of the testosterone)--(gee, and you used to think it only damaged your lungs/skin cells and respiratory system).

A FRIENDLY WARNING (you're intelligent & old enough to make your own decisions--just realize that some decisions will lead to greater fulfillment & happiness while others will be self-sabotaging): Don't smoke and AVOID SECOND-HAND SMOKE(it's even worse than smoking yourself) unless you want to have weaker/smaller muscles and be impotent and/or premature :)

Also note that studies have shown that alcoholism/binge drinking in men is also correlated with lower testosterone levels as well as higher fat levels (hence the term beer belly :).

Best of all, having more muscle from weightlifting burns calories 24 hours a day (it begets a high metabolism--each pound of lean muscle burns/needs 34-37 calories per day for maintenance--think of it: if you have 60 pounds of lean muscle, you automatically burn over 2,000 calories a day just lying around:) so that you most likely don't even have to do aerobic/cardio exercise to stay lean and you can still enjoy Ben&Jerry's ice cream, pizza, hamburgers(no cheese), steak, seafood, & chocolate (I love O.D.ing on Nestle's Alpine White! ;)--so weightlift!

(Note that if you're female, your lesser musculature may necessitate supplementary aerobic/cardio AFTER weightlifting...see FATLOSS below). Click here for more VERY IMPORTANT stuff at my EXERCISE subpage for enhancing your physique

FATLOSS--why most diets/cardio programs fail!

DIETING BY ITSELF IS INEFFECTIVE for PERMANENT FATLOSS. Aerobics/cardio by itself is also ineffective for permanent fatloss. Only WEIGHTLIFTING (supplemented by possible cardio and a diet of at least 33%-50+% PROTEIN ) IS EFFECTIVE for PERMANENT fatloss and staying lean. Interval training (high-intensity bursts of cardio/aerobic exercise(such as sprinting) followed by moderate intensity bursts) is the most effective method for fatloss (and the quickest method of losing fat when doing cardio) as a supplement to WEIGHTLIFTING/RESISTANCE training. The high-intensity-followed-by-moderate-intensity interval cardio training increases the resting metabolism sigificantly more than just plain low/moderate-intensity-cardio for hours after the training session (note that you should also be on a weightlifting/resistance training program also for even more effective results--REMEMBER TO DO CARDIO IMMEDIATELY AFTER YOUR WEIGHTLIFTING/RESISTANCE EXCERCISES because you need your muscles fresh & not exhausted for peak weightlifting/resistance benefits. Don't do your cardio before weightlifting (that reverse order is the most common mistake you see people do in the gym!). (Note that I say fatloss,not weightloss, because you can lose fat and weigh more because you are gaining more denser muscle)

You SHOULD/MUST be WEIGHTLIFTING(free weights or machines or even just dips, handstand pushups, pullups, etc)(see the above EXCERCISE section) to build the muscle tone necessary to burn fat (the more muscle you have, the more mitochondria(in muscle) you have to burn fat--you will also secrete more testosterone and growth hormone--important for "youth" and fitness. On the other hand, higher fat levels are correlated with lower levels of testosterone).

According to dozens of SCIENTIFIC UNIVERSITY RESEARCH STUDIES as well as real-world results, the most effective supplement for real, significant fat-loss is EPHEDRINE (a stimulant/beta-agonist) (20 mg) mixed with Caffeine (200 mg) with optional 300 mg aspirin (U can omit aspirin--U can also include 5 mg of Yohimbine for even more results) for a very potent synergistic effect that will cause your body to burn up to 90% of its calories from fat instead of using your glycogen & muscle tissue for fuel (the proper ratio is 20:200:300 of EPHEDRINE , Caffeine , and optional aspirin)(U can also add 5 mg of Yohimbine for even more results). YOU CAN OMIT THE ASPIRIN AND STILL ACHIEVE 90% OF THE FATLOSS RESULTS :) (the aspirin is mainly for enhancing the duration/effect of the Caffeine ) It's especially effective (even more fatloss than Redux or phen-fen according to scientifc studies) when combined with a weightlifting/exercise program.

The EPHEDRINE / Caffeine /aspirin(e/c/a) stack primarily stimulates the BETA2 and BETA3 RECEPTORS (the cells responsible for increased fatburning in your body), increases metabolism(THERMOGENESIS), and, most importantly, significantly CONSERVES/SAVES MUSCLE TISSUE from being cannibalized when cutting up. The EPHEDRINE & Caffeine are the 2 most important synergistic ingredients (ASPIRIN is nice to add to the mix but it ISN'T NECESSARY). The aspirin enhances the fatloss by helping block the fatburning receptors from attenuating/desensitizing--it allows the fatburning effects of the synergistic EPHEDRINE / Caffeine mix to last longer. Naringenin/grapefruit juice can also enhance the e/c/a stack's potent effects by inhibiting the breakdown of Caffeine .

University studies (most are 8-12 weeks) have shown that subjects taking the EPHEDRINE and Caffeine stack while on a weightlifting/cardio program lost on average about 20 pounds of fat and only cannibalized 3 pounds of muscle whereas subjects who didn't take it and on a placebo (and the same same weightlifting/cardio program) lost about 11 pounds of fat but CANNIBALIZED 10 pounds of muscle!

That's why most aerobic/cardio programs fail for permanent fat loss! You lose almost as much precious fat-burning muscle tissue as you do fat--(more on this in later paragraphs) ... Both groups lost about the same weight (23 lbs vs. 21 lbs.) but the EPHEDRINE / Caffeine group had 9.9 pounds more fatoss and only 3 lbs of muscle loss (the placebo group cannibalized more than 6.16 lbs more muscle tissue than the ephed/caff group!) For a detailed scientific analysis of the biochemical mechanisms of the e/c/a stack with dozens of SCIENTIFIC REFERENCES & FOOTNOTES, click here.

DON'T take EPHEDRINE (also known as Ma Huang or ephedra) if you have high blood pressure, heart/prostate problems, etc. or if you're using any medication containing PPA (phenylpropanolamine)(found in most cold/flu remedies/decongestants/most diet pills) or any other stimulants/adrenalin releasers/beta agonists (such as clenbuterol, nitroglycerin, some asthma medication, etc.) since when combined they can be dangerous/fatal/addictive but otherwise EPHEDRINE is SAFE when you don't exceed 3 doses per day. Take one dose( EPHEDRINE EPHEDRINE / Caffeine /aspirin or Yohimbine) in the morning, another in the afternoon, and one before weightlifting/cardio and you will see results in 3 weeks (stop after 3-5 weeks because your receptors will become attenuated to it--restart after 1-2 months if you want even more fatloss) :)

You can just take a 25 mg dose of EPHEDRINE , a 200 mg dose/tablet of Caffeine , and an OPTIONAL 325 mg dose/tablet of aspirin (or optional Yohimbine) all at once or you can just take a premixed version available at any health food store. Good , reputable brands are the capsule versions of GEN "Thermonol XS"(best brand, I think, & what I use), "Xenadrine", Twinlab's "Ripped Fuel" & "Diet Fuel"(MAKE SURE THEY'RE THE VERSIONS THAT CONTAIN EPHEDRINE /MA HUANG--THE OTHER VERSIONS WITHOUT EPHEDRINE /MA HUANG ARE CRAP), and Sportpharma's "Thermadrene" & "Hydroxycut"(it's overpriced) . They already contain EPHEDRINE and Caffeine in the proper ratios but not aspirin so remember to take an aspirin tablet with each dose (note that aspirin is optional and a nice bonus but it's not vital to the EPHEDRINE / Caffeine stack). Do NOT use any of the unstandardized, unsafe "herbal Xtasy" crap on the market (which were the causes for most of the OVERDOSING fatalities sensationalized in the newsmedia, especially some moronic talkshows who don't have a clue about sports biochemistry [some moronic druggie teen-agers took 8-16+ doses at once in an attempt to get high-- EPHEDRINE didn't kill them, stupidity did]).

I've had relatives & friends (who weighed 200+ lbs) lose as much as 20 pounds (mostly fat) in a month and got really cut by weightlifting, cardio, and using the EPHEDRINE / Caffeine /aspirin stack--you can expect 2-5 pounds lost per week depending on your own mass and regime (I use e/c/a when cutting up). In total, some of my relatives/friends lost over 45+ pounds in 2 months (and they used to be obese/240+ pounds their entire lives previously) following these fatloss/exercise tips

FLEXIBILITY--essential for peak physical performance!

At the mininum, you should stretch 6-7 times a week, (at least once per day) for at least 15 minutes each session if you want to improve your static flexibility (2-4 times a week if you just want to maintain your flexibility).

You should hold each stretch for at least 15+ (preferably 30-60+) seconds of slight pain/pressure (you should push against the ground or other resistance--similar to way you push against the resistance provided by a partner in PNF stretching (after a while, it won't seem painful anymore and you'll just feel a nice tightness/stretching sensation) and then relax for a 30 seconds to minute and then repeat the 15+ seconds of pressure on the muscle you are stretching.

Remember, the more, the better so stretch/drop into your splits while watching T.V. (especially during commericals since they're perfect for 2-minute quickie stretches), studying, doing your homework, programming,reading, or any other activity that you can do while sitting (find a spot that gives you good visual stimuli so it'll give you something to focus on to distract you from the pain--good places are the beach (it has beautiful scenery: warm sunlight dancing on your skin, the roar of crashing waves, soaring seagulls, nice bikinis :) (Southern California has the cutest girls), pounding surf, etc.) the aerobics room during jazzercise (it's like watching a funky music video), etc.

(I usually stretch while reading a magazine, a textbook, the newspaper (the comics are great for laughs to make the stretch feel better), etc. after I exercise and at the beach :).

If you're going to the beach for a tan or lying by the pool, you might as well drop into your splits and kill two birds with one stone. Heck, you can even do it while eating lunch, dinner, etc. (if you're at a restaurant, just do your splits between two chairs so you can eat at the table too--try it at the Ritz-Carlton and see the fun that happens--on a dare, I've actually done my "Van-Damme" splits at Las Brisas, The Towers, Splashes, as well as at the Ritz-Carlton, Laguna Niguel--they were fun adventures--nothing bad happenned--I know how to be very discreet :)

Come to think of it, to best enhance your performance & training, the MORE you practice or stretch, THE BETTER you'll get so you should practice your gymnastics routines as well as splits anywhere and everywhere such as at the beach, as part of your workout at the health club, the park, on-campus, etc. Just don't be surprised if cute, confident girls (especially former cheerleaders/gymnasts/dancers) keep coming up to you all the time to say, "WOW! Were you a gymnast?!" (from most girls) or "Were you a martial artist?" (from sorority girls who want to be different from most girls :)--one of gymnastics' fringe benefits is that it makes for a really good conversation piece that cute, flirty, and confident girls (especially blonde ones) will use to strike up a conversation with you--sorry if this is going seem boastful (no, I'm not conceited[heck, I used to very shy but stuff like that is what makes me now outoing/confident/bold] but it is one of my goals to destroy the stereotype that computer-experts/Asians/intelligent-people are geeky/nerdy/unattractive by citing real-world examples of how girls can find computer-experts/Asians/intelligent-people attractive)...
(Heck, if you're cute/exotic with a good, ripped physique, girls you haven't even seen or met before will also be coming up to you all the time out of the blue to say, "Hi, Gorgeous!!!" (from Rachel, for example) or "Excuse me, I just want to tell you that you're really good-looking...." (from Brandy, for example), "Do you work out alot? You look...GOOD" (from Laura, for example), "Wow, are those muscles real?!" (from Marie, for example), etc., etc., even when you're NOT doing any gymnastics (the super-confident girls that find you attractive will just approach you out of the blue without you doing anything (what I'm sharing here is just only the tip of the iceberg--there's more wilder stuff girls say to me but I can't repeat them here publicly--I don't kiss & tell--(remember, it's fine to be confident, but don't get cocky;)--sorry if it seems conceited(I'm really not)--I'm only reciting some real-life examples to help destroy the myth/stereotype that intelligent-people/computer-experts/Asians are "geeky/nerdy/unattractive") Gymnastics---you gotta love it!!!

Click here for more on flexibility/PNF & stretching techniques

For the dynamic flexibility used in high kicks and drop splits (which is separate from static flexibility), you will just have to practice quick/fast/ stretches/kicks that involve a quick burst of power (such as high kicks/drop splits/etc.) at least 6-7 times a week for 15 minutes at a minimum (similar to the section above). Just practice your kicks/drop splits after martial arts/cheerleading practice or exercise session.

P.S. For all those of you who asked, I come from a family full of white/Asian intermarriages.
