Nutrition 101
What are the 3 main macronutrients...some would say water is the 4th.
Fat, Carbs, Protein
This region of muscles is the centerpiece of our structure, and the region that you are probably sick of hearing about at TAW.
The Core
Many guys think this supplement will turn them into the next Arnold, and a fair amount of the ladies refuse to use it for fear of getting too big...both thoughts are not accurate :)
Protein
This band will rock you as they are on their way to becoming champions.
Queen
Currently, who is the world's most famous superhero?
Spiderman
Carbs and protein have 4 calories per gram, and fat has 9 calories per gram. Which "enjoyable" substance has 7 calories per gram?
Alcohol
This group of muscles has a maximus, medius, and minimus, and is responsible for lower body stability, power and strength. They are a major player in the prevention of lower body injuries and they are also nice to look at :)
The Glutes
This vitamin has a role in nearly every system of the body, is synthesized when you are exposed to sunlight, and for that reason levels are typically too low for much of the world’s population, especially those in the northeast!
Vitamin D
Yoda, the iconic Star Wars character, was originally going to be played by this animal.
Monkey
What is the name of Jack Sparrow's ship?
The Black Pearl
This diet requires you to all but eliminate carbs, which results in your body primarily using fat and protein for its main source of energy.
Keto
This muscle group has a major and minor component. Our youth male population is obsessed with getting it bigger, and you can find it being trained internationally on Mondays (and Wednesdays and Fridays especially for the guys).
The Pecs or Chest
This supplement provides us with the essential omega 3 fatty acids, which have been shown to aid in heart health, joint health, cognitive function and more.
Fish Oil
The line "This is Sparta!" was not originally supposed to be yelled out in this movie. One of my all time favorite movies...likely because everyone is ripped and there is a lot of blood :)
300
What is the fittest state in the US starting 2023?
Hawaii
This hormone is a main player in allowing glucose to be taken up by cells, and it has been shown when we are constantly consuming sugars that we become "insensitive" to it.
Insulin
This is the strongest muscle in the body, relative to weight. We don’t train it much at TAW, except maybe when we are chatting it up with Larry at 7, 8 or 9am…in all fairness, it is usually a very educational convo :)
The Masseter
This may be the most researched supplement in the world, and has been shown to enhance physical and cognitive performance, as well as cellular health and longevity.
Creatine...specifically creatine monohydrate!
This character had a pig named Bacon in one of the classic football movies...and if you haven't seen it, you should!
Billy Bob
The unicorn is the national animal for this country.
Scotland
Protein is used in the body to repair cells and make new ones. These are the "building blocks" of protein.
Amino Acids
Technically called the lobulus auriculae, this body part can be attached or detached, and are commonly found with one to many holes in over half of the population.
The Earlobes
In my opinion, this is the most effective and "safe" pre-workout supplement on the market. It is best to consume it in its most common liquid form, but it is also the most widely used psychoactive drug in the world.
Caffeine
He is the only member of the band ZZ Top to not sport the long beard.
Frank Beard
This animals hair is colorless and reflects light. It is also said that this animal is the only animal that will actively stock humans as prey.
Polar Bear
