			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this short article I am going to answer this question: <a href="http://www.champions-soccertraining.com/carbsinabanana.html">how many carbs in a banana</a>.<br />
<strong>Bananas are delicious, nourishing and healthful.</strong> </p>
<p>While on a reduced carb diet program you definitely want the answer to this:</p>
<p><strong>How many carbs in a banana?</strong><br />
Brief reply:</p>
<li>A small banana includes twenty three carbohydrates.</li>
<li>A medium sized banana contains twenty-seven carbohydrates.</li>
<li>A big banana contains thirty one carbs.</li>
<p><strong>The more in-depth reply:</strong><br />
<H2>How Many Carbs in a Banana?</H2><br />
Carbs in a banana could very well be important, for carb restricted diet plans or when you want to restore glucose inside your muscle tissue and liver glycogen deposits right after a back-breaking training or possibly a soccer competition.</p>
<p>If you’re a sports competitor, you may be accustomed to the idea of a post exercise shake.<br />
A good post exercise or post match shake really should contain some carbs, typically about 40-50 gram, and it can make for a pleasant change to replace some of them with a banana at times.</p>
<p><strong>How many carbs in a banana, the specifics</strong></p>
<li>Fresh Banana, 100 g: twenty-three gram</li>
<li>Banana, extra small: eighteen and a half gram</li>
<li>Banana, small: twenty-three gram</li>
<li>Banana, medium: twenty-seven gram</li>
<li>Banana, large: thirty-one gram</li>
<li>Banana, huge: thirty-five gram</li>
<p>Another quick tip for players:<br />
Specifically soccer players usually consume bananas prior to matches or in the course of half-time. This really is an issue I must highly recommend against, <em>since it may result in hypoglycemia (low blood glucose)</em>.</p>
<p>Bananas are categorised as a moderate G.I. fruit, however where sportsmen are involved, we consider everything over fifty on the Glycemic Index as high, as it can get you into serious trouble.</p>
<p>So bananas are a post (meaning “after”) workout or post game fruit only.<br />
It&#8217;s taken place quite a few times that athletes all of a sudden got dizzy, weakly, breaking out in a cold sweat and also got incredibly angry and aggressive with virtually no apparent justification. These are the signs and symptoms of low blood sugar levels, and this may happen to you if you consume bananas prior to or during long, physically demanding activities, like a soccer match.</p>
<p><strong><ins>Just what should you do in this situation?</ins></strong><br />
<em>Sit back right away and have at least 10-20 gram L-Glutamine, and maybe an apple. You should be fine inside of 10-15 min&#8217;s.</em></p>
<p>If you want fruit for energy before a game or training, try an apple or perhaps an orange. Other fresh fruit that&#8217;s OK to have before exercising are for instance:<br />
<strong>all berries, papaya, avocado, grapefruit, apricot and cherries.</strong></p>
<p>Good Luck! <img src='http://vici.is/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In this post I&#8217;ll provide answers to the inquiry on <a href="http://www.tsmethod.com/blog/how-many-calories-in-an-egg/">how many calories in an egg</a>.</p>
<p>Eggs are natures’ treasure chest for healthy proteins and smart fatty acids. Especially organic, free-range omega 3 eggs are an incredibly beneficial, nourishing food.</p>
<p>Whenever on a caloric constrained diet program, you should know the response to this inquiry:<br />
<strong>Just how many calories are inside an egg?</strong></p>
<p>Quick answer:<br />
• A little egg has 54 kilocalories<br />
• A medium egg contains 63 kilocalories<br />
• A big egg has 72 kilocalories</p>
<p>And now for that extended, more descriptive answer…</p>
<p><strong>Just how Many Kilocalories in the Egg?</strong><br />
Kilocalories in a egg can be quite relevant for those on a fat loss diet. At times counting calorie consumption can become necessary, and then you’ll need all the information about how many kilocalories in your food items for each one hundred gram, or for each each serving, as in the case of an egg.</p>
<p><strong>Eggs are high in healthy proteins, high in  healthy fats and low in carbohydrates.</strong><br />
There’s only about 0.6 &#8211; 1 gram of carbohydrates in a large egg. That makes them a wonderful foodstuff when on a reduced carbohydrate diet.</p>
<p><strong>The fat content varies in between 5 and 6 g.</strong></p>
<p>And the proteins? About 6-7 gram for one big egg.</p>
<p><strong>Eggs are CLEVER!</strong><br />
The specific fatty acids in eggs are good fats: really wholesome and only beneficial to you.<br />
The old fable that eggs can be harmful because they have colesterol has rather long since been demolished.</p>
<p><strong>Eggs DO contain colesterol, but they have HDL colesterol, and this is wonderful news for you:</strong><br />
HDL is great for your cardiovascular system, and may help enhance testosterone in males.<br />
Usually it’s wise to have eggs whole, including the valuable egg yolk, since that’s where all the good fats are. But enjoying the whites only is an excellent strategy for saving lots of calories, whilst getting a handful of top-quality natural protein.</p>
<p>That’s obviously if you boil them. When you for instance fry them in a lot of grease, you add to the caloric count substantially.</p>
<p><strong>The number of calories in the egg, expanded edition:</strong></p>
<p>• Uncooked eggs, one cup: 347 calories<br />
• one egg, small: fifty four kilocalories<br />
• 1 egg, mid-sized: sixty three calories<br />
• 1 egg, big: seventy two calories<br />
• one egg, extra big: eighty kilocalories<br />
• 1 egg, jumbo: 90 kilocalories</p>
<p>Very long story short: eggs really should be a main choice of anyone&#8217;s diet plan, they’re healthy for you, plain and simple.<br />
And especially egg whites are a higher healthy protein, ultra-low calorie foodstuff.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><strong>Easy Diet Plans will help to get you going</strong><br />
When starting out on a weight loss regimen, a few easy diet plans are simply <em>just</em> the thing you need.<br />
So what are the easiest ways to drop bodyweight, the best methods to assist you in changing your lifestyle and diet behavior?</p>
<p>Listed below are two of the most effective-and easiest- diet approaches that I know.</p>
<p>I’ve compiled two genuinely uncomplicated eating plans for you:<br />
<strong>1. Smart Carbs</strong><br />
The Smart Carbohydrate Approach is the 1st phase in the initial Level of my fitness and weight loss program, the TS Method. It’s really rather easy, and straightforward too: You exchange all carbs in your diet with what I call Smart Carbs: Cruciferous Veggies and Legumes.</p>
<p><em>Here is a short checklist on each.</em><br />
<strong>Cruciferous Veggies</strong><br />
• Broccoli<br />
• Cauliflower<br />
• Cabbage<br />
• Brussels Sprouts</p>
<p><strong>Legumes</strong><br />
• Kidney Beans<br />
• Green Lentils<br />
• Brown Lentils<br />
• Pinto Beans</p>
<p>These types of Smart Carbs can taste absolutely excellent, and you use them to exchange other, fattening carbs:<br />
throw out with the potatoes, in with the cauliflower. Get rid of the pasta, include low sugar baked beans as a substitute. Exchange white rice for brown or green lentils, and so on.</p>
<p><strong>2. Short-term Fasting</strong><br />
I only began to make true improvements going into sub 10% body fat after I integrated short term fasting into my eating habits.<br />
Brad Pilon is a guy from Canada who studied intermittent fasting as a graduate at Guelph University in Ontario. He created a fairly unusual approach to shedding weight: short-term fasting.</p>
<p>His book, Eat Stop Eat has made some waves within the diet community, mostly I assume because it works.</p>
<p>The concept is to not eat any kind of calories for around 18-24 hours at a stretch, on alternate days, or maybe twice each week, with a minumum of one day in between fasts. So it’s more to do with a weekly calorie deficit than a daily one.<br />
<em>I have to confess that the short-term fasts were a bit difficult to start with!</em></p>
<p>This is probably more out of habitual patterns than anything. But before long you begin to value the elevated vitality and clearness brought on by brief fasts. This is not to speak of the immediate fat burning results.</p>
<p>Intermittent Fasting has a lot of other benefits aside from accelerated Fat Loss:</p>
<p>• You become accustomed to not having to eat.<br />
Seems totally obvious, however if you think about it, you’re conditioned to consume food from early childhood, each day and all the time. Now you understand this doesn’t have to be like that.</p>
<p>• Food gets cherished yet again.<br />
Dishes begin to really taste good once more, better than in a very long time, and you also really learn to be grateful for your meals. At least that’s how it has been for me.</p>
<p>There’s plenty of other good things about intermittent fasting, HGH production is boosted, detox is enhanced, aging is slowed. On the whole, undoubtedly something worth considering.</p>
<p>So for truly <a href="http://www.champions-soccertraining.com/easydietplans.html">easy diet plans</a>, as a first step try simply having a bunch of cruciferous vegetables as an alternative to refined carbohydrate food. One more thing these veggies do is stuff you up like crazy! It’s hard to have a binge-attack if you’re simply too full to actually eat! </p>
<p>Then when you’re ready for the next step, consider no meals until dinner. That’s usually a 20+ hrs fast based upon whenever you previously had your very last calorie consumption on the day before.<br />
Enjoy! </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Slow Metabolic process vs a quicker Metabolism with Age … </p>
<p>As pointed out in the previous write-up on this topic, hormone levels do diminish from around twenty-five onwards, however this condition can in fact be fully balanced out by a healthful way of life along with intelligent exercise and some smart nutritional supplementing!</p>
<p>When folks point out that it’s normal to get fat about forty then that’s a fallacy or even simply just an alibi.<br />
Being overweight at 40 is a really just the result of nearly two decades or more of eating too much and not enough exercising.</p>
<p>That’s the long and short of it.</p>
<p>So it’s no age-related problem or illness, but just the piling up of fat with time.</p>
<p>And also the shrinking of muscles due to sheer absence of use …</p>
<p><strong>Muscular Mass Burns identical amounts of Calories Pound for  Pound, no matter how old!</strong><br />
Apparently the common male gains approximately one pound of body fat annually from the age of 35 to the age of sixty …<br />
But exactly how come?</p>
<p>Research shows that regardless of age, the daily nutrient requirements (energy burned up) per every pound of muscular mass will always be precisely the same. Therefore whether twenty-five or fifty-five, you have the same calories:lean-mass ratio.</p>
<p>In English this means that 50 lbs of muscle mass use the same energy/calories per day in a teenager as they do in a baby-boomer.</p>
<p>Only concern is that folks tend to lose muscle tissue as time passes<br />
… and hence burn up less energy on a daily basis!</p>
<p>So all that suggests is if you sustain lean mass &#8211;your muscles- the metabolism will not decrease whatsoever.<br />
And when you train frequently, and maybe even increase strength and muscle size for a little bit, you might actually speed it up as you grow older!</p>
<p><strong>Take Care Of Your Muscle to help maintain Your Metabolism, And Even Speed It Up With Regular Planned Activity!</strong><br />
Here‘s a „secret“, if you want: sustaining strength and hypertrophy levels (muscular mass) is actually super easy.<br />
A good example: my players do one brief exercise routine each week when they‘re in-season, at times less. And that‘s adequate!</p>
<p>At the least to maintain, read: remain at the same levels. If you want to build up, a tad bit more is needed, but still the good thing is that once you‘re there, you can preserve everything you got with ease!</p>
<p>So while build up might take, say, three trainings a week, one short workout session is sufficient for maintenance.</p>
<p>And also this provides us with 1 good example on why working out is suggested, even though not necessary to shed weight.<br />
Because you can burn off all of the body fat you want without moving so much as the little  finger, simply by nutritional adjustment only.<br />
And correct nutrition is key to weight loss, that’s for certain.</p>
<p>But the right training will quicken things considerably, shape you up beautifully both in the health- and looks-department, and make sure that metabolic rate keeps a-humming along all just right.</p>
<p>Long story short: <a href="http://www.tsmethod.com/blog/a-slow-metabolism-with-age-how-about-a-fast-metabolism-for-the-long-haul/">Slow Metabolism or Fast Metabolism</a>, it&#8217;s really up to you, however young or old.</p>

Diet:</strong><br />
We’ll keep this extra easy, merely have something containing protein (what ever: amino acids, eggs, protein shake, cottage type cheese, other cheese, yogurt, seafood …) roughly every three hrs, don’t stress about kilocalories, simply look at the mirror and be sure you don’t lose sight of those abdominal muscles! </p>
<p>Carbohydrates are OK here, but most all should be on the lower side of the G.I. (Glycemic Index) So Cruciferous Veggies, whole grain spelt, barley and oat meal, fruit such as oranges and apples, the majority of greens, and so on).</p>
<p>Carbohydrates are usually recommended when your target is muscular mass gain.<br />
They should be largely minimal G.I. (glycemic Index, which means essentially just how much will they raise the insulin levels), with one omission: the Post Training Shake.<br />
Right here the carbs want to be high G.I., we’ll get into that in the next part.<br />
Note: organic food is always best in general.</p>
<p><strong>2. Supplements:</strong><br />
You’ll really want these: to recuperate, to super-compensate, for an optimized Hormone Response. If you wish to induce muscular hypertrophy in a natural way this is just plain essential.</p>
<p><strong>First we increase human growth hormone</strong><br />
• BCAA’s Powder<br />
ten g AM, 10-40 g through the exercise session.<br />
• L-Glutamine<br />
five g Am&#038;PM, 10-20 gram Post Workout<br />
• Glycene<br />
five gram AM and working up to twenty gram by means of five gram steps in the Post Exercise protein shake<br />
• Zinc<br />
three x 15 mg p.d.<br />
• Magnesium Citrate or Aspartate<br />
1000 mg daily at least, fifty percent in the PWO (Post Training Shake)</p>
<p><strong>Now we assist restoration, raise the metabolism, increase anabolism and strength</strong><br />
• Vitamin D3<br />
five thousand IU daily<br />
• Iodine<br />
Lugol’s 5%, 6-10 Drops in some water, specifically AM<br />
• Oil of Rosemary<br />
1-3 drops underneath the tongue, 1-2 a day, early rather than later.<br />
• Omega 3<br />
three x 5-15 g p.d.<br />
• Whey Protein Isolate<br />
20 g inside the PWO<br />
• Carbo Powder<br />
30-40 g in the PWO<br />
• Creatine monohydrate<br />
5 day loading stage of 4 x 5 g p.d., then two x 5 g p.d.: five gram before and following exercise sessions.<br />
• Beta Alanine<br />
Take with the creatine monohydrate, non-training days roughly 4 gram in the AM, exercising days up to 7.5 g throughout the workout.<br />
Beta Alanine makes creatine more effective, in other words the 2 collaborate closely to create an EXTREMELY complete double whammy!</p>
<p><strong>We boost free testosterone, reduce conversion to estrogen as well as protect the prostate</strong><br />
• Turnera Diffusa<br />
5 g 3 times p.d.<br />
• Saw Palmetto Extract<br />
Saw Palmetto Berry Extract Pills, take three caps x 2-3 p.d.</p>
<p><strong>3.Training:</strong><br />
<strong>Upper Body ( Mondays and Fridays)</strong><br />
A1: Close Grip Pull-Ups, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 10s. pause<br />
A2: Incline Dumbbell-Press, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 10s.<br />
A3: Standing Barbell-Rows, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 10s.<br />
A4: Chest-Dips, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 10s.<br />
A5: Seated Cable-Rows, 3×8-10rm, 3010,1 0s.<br />
A6: Decline BaB-Press*, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 10s.<br />
A7: Front-Levers**, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 10s.<br />
A8: Dumbbell Flat-Press, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 10s.<br />
A9: EZ-Pull-Overs, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 10s.<br />
A10: Unrolling Dumbbell-Flys***, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 180s. Rest Interval</p>
<p>B: Muscle Snatch, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 90s. rest<br />
*Arms Parallel Grip, usually some 35 cm wide (your own accurate shoulder width)<br />
**This is basically a standing Pullover, completed with a Triceps bar on a high pulley. You are taking a split stance, bend your upper body to some 45°, and do a fairly straight arm pullover motion. The point is that the strength curve changes, thus it’s a completely different exercise to for example the lying EZ Bar pullover. Also you enhance the range of motion here.<br />
***The arms ar almost completely straight, the weights are high, on eye level. You remain on that plane when doing the move, for max stretch. The hands are pronated, yet in the bottom position you supinate, start the concentric (positive) phase, and “unroll” back to pronated (palms facing away from you).</p>
<p><strong>Lower Body (Tuesdays and Fridays)</strong><br />
A1: Full Squats, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 10s. pause<br />
A2: Leg Curls, 3×6-8rm, 3010, 10s. pause<br />
A3: Split Squats, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 10s. pause<br />
A4: Eccentric Back Extensions, 3×8-10rm, 3010, 180s. rest</p>
<p>Follow this program and you can be sure of increased <a href="http://www.tsmethod.com/blog/muscular-hypertrophy/">muscular hypertrophy</a>!</p>
<p><em>P.S.<br />
Disclaimer: you know I’m not a M . d ., and you need to talk to your heath care treatment specialist before starting any exercise program, or before you take anything.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I believe one of many explanations why people have problems with burning calories for loss is the following:<br />
Most don’t fully realize exactly how their physiques operate, particularly how they actually use the available energy, and what for.</p>
<p>You&#8217;ll find different types of energy sources -or energy systems- the body can utilize and those are important for sporting performance for example. When you learn to coach players, you discover these types of fuels and their funtions.</p>
<p>But never mind all the science babbel, disregarding the actual energy systems and concentrating on a much more primary level, you may think about it this way: one&#8217;s body has several “Gas Tanks” that the fuel is originating from. That’s definitely all that counts when weight loss is involved.</p>
<p>Eventually, to shed weight, this gasoline -or calories- needs to come from your body’s fat stores. But how do you know? And in what way do you make certain of it happening like that?</p>
<p>How exactly do we burn calories for weight reduction? Let’s go over two of the key factors of fat loss:</p>
<p><strong>1. How Many Calories should you ingest for ideal weight loss?</strong><br />
<strong>2. What type Kilocalories (where do they originate from) are you really operating on at any given time?</strong></p>
<p>Point 1, the number of kilocalories per day on average:<br />
Here’s a straightforward and generic rule of thumb, that works pretty good for most who apply it …</p>
<p>Targeted Bodyweight in lbs x 10. So if you would want to arrive at one hundred seventy pounds ideally, simply multiply by 10 = 1700 calories/day. This is best applied as the weekly average, thus weekly kilocalories split by 7 should provide you with the daily amount. This amount can easily be achieved  via many different types of methods: short-term fasting, day-to-day deficit, extra training, etc.</p>
<p>Point 2 brings us back to the 3 gas tanks.<br />
The very first one is simply the food you’re eating, which might be in your bloodstream some 3 hours or so. That’s tank #1.</p>
<p>Virtually any excess then will get stored as glycogen within the muscular tissues as well as the liver. That’s tank #2.</p>
<p>Lastly, if there’s surplus still, (if you eat too much) the body will preserve this for a rainy day, in gas tank #3: your body fat stores.</p>
<p><strong>The difference in readily available kilocalories is incredible:</strong></p>
<p>The meal you just had is only going to last a short while, approximately three hours, depending.</p>
<p>Your muscle and liver glycogen may possibly carry some 1600-2000 kilocalories, depending on the person.</p>
<p>And the fat stores? Well, even if you’re slim, you’re virtually looking at hundreds of thousands of calories. That’ll last a person for WEEKS!</p>
<p>Now how might all that apply to weight loss?</p>
<p>It&#8217;s straightforward: your body can fundamentally not come near it’s fat stores when there’s energy available from other sources like the diet. It won&#8217;t touch them whenever there’s calories available from the glycogen stores.<br />
It will only really begin using them when it will has to, and that’s when all other calories are used up: both from food, and the glycogen stores from your muscles and liver.</p>
<p>The important question: when is this? When do you have emptied out all the other gas tanks, so the system is actually compelled to use it’s “emergency tank”, literally operating on body fat for fuel?</p>
<p>Don’t hate me now, but it usually takes all of 20 hours. Fasted. Yep, that’s right! If you do the maths you’ll see: 2000 calories, even at 100 calories an hour average? And it’s usually a lot more like 80 kcl’s hourly, depending on how tall you are, quantity of lean mass and most of all your activity levels.</p>
<p>But say you got your carbohydrate stores all filled and you&#8217;ve got two thousand kilocalories in there? 20 hrs plus with no nutrition. See where the short-term fasting comes into the picture?</p>
<p>But if you get right down to the fundamentals, <a href="http://www.tsmethod.com/blog/calories-for-weight-loss/">calories for weight loss</a> are the kinds that come from tank Number Three, and to make it happen you&#8217;ll need a enormous deficit, all other tanks must be run dry 1st!</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Warm Up Exercising is crucial, yet warmup can also be boring, and why not employ all that precious energy for training with some serious weight loads instantly, right away?</p>
<p>Well, you got a point there. Employing excessive warm-up reps or sets will certainly detract from the high quality of the exercise routine. BUT …</p>
<p><strong>You need to prepare yourself correctly for intense weightlifting with the suitable warm-up!</strong></p>
<p>Three reasons for you to take into consideration warming up properly for your exercise routine:<br />
• With the appropriate warm up you will actually be able to lift more forcefully<br />
• Not heating up is one of the two principal factors that cause personal injury in the weights room, and<br />
• The incorrect sort of warm-up is the other</p>
<p><strong>Here are the appropriate warm ups for the different kinds of trainings</strong><br />
<strong>Power:</strong> (Speed Strength, 1-6 repetitions)<br />
4,4,3,2,1,1,1 reps with 40, 40, 50, 60, 70, 80, 80% of WORKING weight.<br />
So in case you’d utilize 100kg (to keep the maths uncomplicated) for sets of triples, that’d be forty, 40, fifty, 60, 70, 80, 80kg for your warm-up sets.</p>
<p><strong>Relative Strength:</strong> (1-5 reps) and Hypertrophy (6-12 reps)<br />
5,3,2,1,1 reps with 50, 60, 70, 80, 90% working weight.</p>
<p><strong>Strength Endurance:</strong> (13-25 repetitions)<br />
3 x 5 reps, at fifty, 70, 80% working weight.</p>
<p>Warm up exercises ought to also be specific: it’s typically better to use the same moves!</p>
<p>What exactly that means is that the stationary bicycle isn&#8217;t exactly the most suitable warm up exercise for, say, the bench press. If you’re gonna bench press, you need to warm-up with pretty exactly that same move. </p>
<p><strong>Let’s take a closer look at our Bench Press Case and walk through it together:</strong><br />
Sticking to the example of the bench press, say you want to do some ten sets of 3-5rm (rep max) with a hundred and fifty kilograms, that’s relative strength, and you’d warm up similar to this:<br />
5 x 75kg, 3 x 90kg, 2 x 105kg, 1 x 120kg, 1 x 135kg.</p>
<p><strong>In addition, it could be a a mistake to do some 25 reps as groundwork for say the power snatch. Why?<br />
</strong><br />
Apart from the proven fact that high repetitions like that on a highly technical, structurally difficult high-speed lift like the power snatch might lead to breakdown of technique and also to a slowing down of tempo/lack of explosiveness -so you’d train yourself to become slower and program faults into your nervous system- you’d also create high levels of lactate, which in turn reduces your ability gain access to the HTMU’s (high threshold motor units), which govern the FT (fast twitch) muscle fibers (Type IIa and specifically Type II B), that tend to be just the ones that make you fast and strong … </p>
<p>Have a Good Workout, but don&#8217;t forget to do the right <a href="http://www.tsmethod.com/blog/the-right-warm-up-exercise-for-weights/">Warm Up Exercise</a>! <img src='http://vici.is/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Soccer Players are among the leanest  you&#8217;ll find in any sport.</p>
<p>Which comes from playing the game, and via Football Conditioning Drills -specific exercises focusing on mostly the appropriate energy systems stressed in soccer.</p>
<p>There’s no legitimate reason why you might not use these exact same drills whenever leaning out, even if you don’t happen to engage in the sport of football.</p>
<p>I really do lots of work with football, or soccer for you folks abroad.</p>
<p>There&#8217;ll be a Football Conditioning routine at the bottom here, which like I said also is effective for fat burning, even if you don’t take part in the sport.<br />
But first permit me to tell you of this year’s season, which is just now over here in Iceland:</p>
<p><strong>This year went immensely well, an excellent year all around.</strong><br />
I started work with a 1st division club, and due to excellent soccer coaching and good physical preparation, they made it to the Champion’s League. So that’s great.</p>
<p>However there’s much more: my main team won both the Cup, and the National Title 2011, for the twenty-fifth time all together! </p>
<p>Obviously I’m not saying this really is all merely because of my great physical training, there’s a lot more goes into good results in a team sport like soccer:<br />
Instructors, caretakers, all the “back-office” stuff like management and so on, the actual fan’s help, and 1st and foremost the players: they’re the ones who’re out there and make it all happen.</p>
<p><strong>And then there’s the soccer conditioning preparation, too.</strong><br />
<em>A: 5s. Cluster-Sprints<br />
2-3 Cluster Sets of between 60-70 secs total, 10 x 5 second-sprints total, on the whistle, 120 seconds rest.</em><br />
Explanation: the players run at a quick tempo, unsure when the signal (whistle) will come. On the signal, they break into an all-out five second sprint, going back again to the quick paced run at the second whistle. Perform a total of 3-5 sprints inside a 60-70 second time-frame, for 2-3 such „Cluster-Sets“, amassing 10 sprints. Take 2 min&#8217;s rest in between cluster-sets.</p>
<p><em>B: Suicides/Cutting-Drills (Tabata-Style)<br />
TUT (Time Under Tension/Distance) 20 secs, break 10 seconds.</em><br />
Outline: this is the classic Tabata set-up, and it works very well.<br />
Cutting drills essentially mean you don’t run in a straight line for 20 secs, but you go for a set distance, stop, turn, and run back to another set tag.<br />
Example: sprint to the 20 yard level, turn, sprint back to zero, turn, run to thirty, turn, back to the starting line.</p>
<p>Careful! Be sure to warm-up real well before any speed (read: sprint) work!</p>
<p>Why not give these <a href="http://www.tsmethod.com/blog/soccer-conditioning-drills-can-help-lean-you-out/">soccer conditioning drills</a> a go and see if they don&#8217;t lean you out in a hurry! <img src='http://vici.is/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_wink.gif' alt=';-)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Eccentric Training is one of the most powerful strategies to get huge and much stronger quickly.<br />
Eccentrics, also called “Negatives”, are the lowering element of the lift.</p>
<p><strong>Example Bench Press:</strong><br />
You push the load to the top point, that’s the concentric, or “positive” part.<br />
As you then bring down the weightsbar to your chest, this is actually the eccentric section of the repetition.</p>
<p>Eccentric Exercising is normally not required before you have some 3+ years of great workouts under your belt.</p>
<p>But as we all know there’s exceptions to the majority of rules!</p>
<p>Let&#8217;s assume you’re a novice who is aware of the value of proper chin-ups, but can’t even do one as yet?<br />
Eccentric bodyweight repetitions would be the answer.</p>
<p>Or perhaps you’ve completed a few years of good workouts and are a little bogged down, caught up, on a “plateau”, as they say?<br />
Here substantial, heavily loaded eccentric repetitions will propel you towards new strength and mass heights!</p>
<p>Let’s take a quick look now at the reason why eccentric workouts will enhance your power and hypertrophy (muscle mass growth) levels right quick:</p>
<p>Some report that you’re around 160% stronger eccentrically compared to concentrically, while others state in the trained sportsman it can be up to 175%!</p>
<p>This means that should you bench 200 lbs, you ought to be capable of lowering approximately three hundred and fifty in a controlled manner.<br />
“Controlled Manner” indicating you can lower the weight smoothly for 6-8 secs!</p>
<p>A security suggestion in this regard: if you are planning to complete eccentric repetitions with a heavy load, say six second-reps for some 5-6 repetitions, and by for instance the 3rd repetition you cannot slow the load down enough, then you stop the set immediately.</p>
<p>Eccentric Training means a lifter can make use of much heavier loads than typical, switching on quite different motor-units than normally.<br />
All of that translates into new strength and muscle mass gains.</p>
<p><strong>BEGINNER:</strong><br />
Say you can’t do a single pull up? Easy. Climb into the top-position, chin nicely over the bar. Now lower yourself controlledly over 30 seconds! That’s 1 set. </p>
<p><strong>INTERMEDIATE/ADVANCED:</strong><br />
Tie some serious weight around your midsection, climb up there, and lower for some 6-8 secs, for 3-5 reps and several sets. </p>
<p><em>Some Critical Safety Issues:</em><br />
Newbies shouldn’t go about doing eccentrics with large loads.</p>
<li>Concerning personal injury: Eccentrics are definitely for compound movements only.</li>
<p>So for example bench, chins and squats (inside a power rack with safety pins) are on, while scott curls are a total No-No! </p>
<li>Ensure you can control the load over the given time. </li>
<p>Otherwise you could collapse and once again: that would be unpleasant!</p>
<li>Eccentrics call for a long recovery time.</li>
<p>They should be carried out just every 10 days usually, and you don’t want to perform them too near to an important match: remove them from your training schedule a minimum of 6 weeks prior to an event!</p>
<p><strong>Eccentric Exercises you may safely and efficiently perform by yourself:</strong></p>
<p>• Chins and Pull-Ups<br />
• Dips (like the chins with loads buckled around the waist)<br />
• Shoulder Press (Push-Press the load upwards, after that lower under control)<br />
• Squats (only in a power rack with safety pins)<br />
• Bench Press (only in a power rack with safety pins)<br />
• Deadlifts (From a half rack, from blocks or in a power rack)</p>
<p>In case you’re stuck, it’s absolutely worth it as <a href="http://www.tsmethod.com/blog/get-big-fast-eccentric-training/">eccentric training</a> will without a doubt get you large and powerful WAY fast!</p>
