WORLD CHAMPION'S STACK

While I was in Serbia competing at the 2011 FILA Grappling World Championships I knew that my recovery would play a factor in my success. I wanted to make sure that I was able to have the energy and power that I needed to win the tournament. A typical Grappling (or Wrestling) tournament will have you spending all day at the competition venue with little chance of finding good or even adequate food to keep you going.

I made sure that I had exactly what I needed on hand so that I didn't have to worry about not finding food and not having the energy I needed. As a 30+ year old grappler I need fuel both before and after my workouts and competitions. The Advocare line of products has helped me keep a steady energy level and allows me to compete at my best. Here is my "World Champions Stack" that I took with me to Serbia.

ADVOCARE - REHYDRATE

Rehydrate is an electrolyte and rehydration supplement. I generally use it after my grappling workouts which helps tremendously with my recovery. One of the most overlooked elements of recovery for most Grappelrs and Wrestlers is hydration. If I don't get rehydrated before I get to bed after a hard night's training session then I usually have issues with energy the next day.

I found that as I used Rehyrdate my hyrdation felt like it came back faster and I could tell that I was being replenished. I've used Gatorade, Powerade and everything else on the mass market and they simply do not do anything for me. Click on the image and give Rehydrate a try.

ADVOCARE - MEAL REPLACEMENT BAR

Advocare's Meal Replacement Bar saved me at the world championships. This is what I was munching on before and after matches to keep my strength up and my energy going. They are easy to pack and easy to eat at tournaments.

I knew I was getting good protein and carbohydrates every time I ate one. I was able to keep steady energy levels and avoid 'bonking' throughout the day. That has proved challenging in the past and I am glad I found this great solution.

ADVOCARE - POST WORKOUT RECOVERY

After all was said and done I needed some serious recovery and rejuvenation. I brought Post Workout Recovery along with me to both the World Team Trials and the World Championships. Post Workout Recovery is also a mainstay for me after all of my strength training workouts. If I was stuck on a desert island and only had one choice of supplement to use for the rest of my life this would be it.
