Subject: sodium bicarbonate

I read your articl on sodium bicabonate as a performance enhancer. I have also read elsewhere that alka seltzer can also be used. As Alka seltzer is much easier to swallow than baking soda I was wondering if you coul recomend a dosage. Thanks

Dear Posi

There are many different versions of Alka Seltza (eg. Alka-Seltzer® Lemon-Lime Flavor . Alka-Seltzer® Extra Strength . Alka-Seltzer® Heartburn Relief, Alka-Seltzer® PM Nighttime Relief , Alka-Seltzer® Morning Relief Alka- Seltzer® Gold. Alka-Mints® ).

They contain varying amounts of sodium bicarbonate...depending on the formula (lemon-lime flavor Contains: Aspirin 325 mg. sodium bicarbonate 1700 mg
Citric acid 1000 mg ...extra strength formula contains:Aspirin 500 mg. sodium bicarbonate 1985 mg Citric acid 1000 mg.)

Since the dose of sodium bicarbonate for a performance enhancing effect is 300mg per kilo of bodyweight, an 80 kilo athlete requires 24 grams(80x300mg)

of sodium bicarbonate (eg equivalent of 14 lemon-lime Alkaseltzer ) Now 14 lemon-lime alkaseltzer contains 4.55 grams of aspirin...a dose that can blow ulcer holes in your stomach lining...so I definetly do NOT recommend using Alka Seltzer for its sodium bicarbonate content.

If the taste of sodium bicarb bothers you, take it in divided doses(see my article for how to do this http://ironpower.biz/sup/sup_energy2.htm) with flavour and citric acid (to give it fizz)

Also of concern is that the different variations of Alka Seltzer contain other substances...eg Morning relief contains caffeine...if your sporting event is drug tested, this could push you over the legal limit (mind you, your performance would go through the roof!)

Ironpower's Powerstack formula contains sodium bicarb, as well as creatine and potassium phosphate, for supercharged performance above that of just sodium bicarbonate alone...and it tastes delicious! You might want to consider using this...since it is designed specifically for performance enhancement...will not give you detrimental health effects...will not cause you to fail a drug test...and will probably work out far cheaper than taking 14 Alka Seltzer per pop!

kind regards

Amazing Mind Control Secret…Your Key to Ultimate Success

Understand and apply this one secret to your own life, and watch how fast and profoundly success will start chasing you....

Why do some people appear to have all the luck...going from success to success...while others of apparently equal talent, intelligence and education continually fail? For the successful person, they seem to have the Midas touch...for the unsuccessful person, the opposite...everything they touch turns to crap!..and their life is falling apart.

Knowing this one secret, can save marriages, make millions of dollars, in fact achieve almost anything your heart desires...but the flip side of the coin is that not knowing it can lead to a life of continual failure, frustration, and underachievement. Successful people use this secret either consciously, or unknowingly...but either way...they are using the secret. And it's not really a secret...its just that so few people know of it...and even fewer master its application...that it may as well be a secret. Arnold Schwarzenneggar is a great example of someone who knows and consciously applies this secret to his own life. So what is this secret...

Earl Nightingale called it "The Strangest Secret" and sold over a million copies of an audio recording revealing it. He described it as "We become what we think about" . Wayne Dyer, world-renowned psychologist and best selling author describes it as "What we think about expands"

In the bible it can be found time and time again "As you believe, so it shall be done unto you". So what does this mean in practical terms…to be able to turn your life around from one of quiet desperation to a roaring success? You must take control of your mind, and take charge of your thoughts. Stop thinking about all the things you fear or resent and don't want to happen, to thinking of only what you want in your life. This is not easy...it requires extreme discipline...because habitual thinking for most people is negative. They dwell on their fears and what they don't want to happen...instead of what they want to happen…and that is why they continually fail. A new habit pattern of thinking must be formed... a positive shift in consciousness.

How does this work...James Allen in his century old classic bestseller "As A Man Thinketh" compares the mind to a garden...which may be intelligently cultivated, or allowed to run wild...in which you can sow weeds (negative thoughts) or plants that will bare fruit (positive thoughts)...but either way...the garden will bring forth...what you sow is what you'll reap. You are what you think, and by controlling your thoughts and what goes into your mind, you have the ability to control life’s outcomes.

As A Man Thinketh has influenced many contemporary writers including Anthony Robbins, Denis Waitley, Earl Nightingdale, and Dr Norman Vincent Peale, among others.

How can you apply this information to your own life and make it a resounding success...No1 Decide on what you want in your life. What sort of career, car, spouse, body, health...everything you really want...and then build a picture in your mind of this...shutting out all contrary thoughts and images not in harmony with the new you you have formed in your mind. Every time a negative thought enters...say "Next" and stop thinking about it and focus back again on your "new life" image. Of course this isn't easy...you have a lifetime of conditioned thinking to overcome...but with practice and perseverance...any one can change their life around. Immerse your mind fully in this new way of thinking by reading uplifting inspiring books such as “Psycho Cybernetics” by Maxwell Maltz, “Think and Grow Rich” by Napoleon Hill, and the newly updated and modernised version of James Allen's classic "As A Man Thinketh", retitled "Thought Factor-Amazing Mind Control Secrets revealed" by Richard Hargreaves

About the author: Richard Hargreaves, 1984 Mr Australia and Life Coach, is the author of the newly revised and modernised version of James Allen’s classic bestseller "As A Man Thinketh". The new book, entitled "Thought Factor...Amazing Mind Control Secrets Revealed" is available in eBook form from http://ironpower.biz/thought-factor.htm, plus the original version of "As A Man Thinketh" and another James Allen classic, "Way Of Peace," as FREE bonuses.

Here's How You Can Add 51 pounds to a 300 pound Maximum Bench Press...plus watch your muscles grow bigger and fuller in just 5 days...

"Dramatic Improvements in Power and Endurance with Less Perceived Effort..."

Dr Ian Stewart and his colleagues at the Tasmanian Institute of Technology did a study of highly trained cyclists, giving them 3.6 grams of sodium phosphate a day or a placebo, for three days before a maximum effort on the ergometre bicycle.

Results showed that phosphate loading reduced lactic acid accumulation, increased 2,3 - DPG production during exercise( puts more oxygen in blood), increased VO2 max by 11%,and increased time to exhaustion by 20%
(Stewart I, McNaughton L Res Quart 1990;61:80-84).

One of the most recent and best studies (KREIDER RB, et al Int J Sports Nutr 1992;2:20-47) which tested both anaerobic and endurance exercise gave trained cyclists 4 grams of sodium phosphate per day or a placebo for 3 days prior to a maximal exercise test and a 40km time trial on the ergometre bicycle.

During the aerobic phosphate trials, time for the 40km ride was reduced by 3.5 minutes. That's big.
During the anaerobic phosphate trials, the maximal power output increased by 17%. As Dr Michael Colgin points out in his excellent book Optimum Sports Nutrition, that’s the equivalent to adding 51 lbs to a 300 lb maximum bench press!

How you can increase MUSCLE POWER
If you want to add more muscle bulk or to be stronger, faster, or increase recovery between bouts of exercise, take 5 grams of CreatineMonohydrate per day in combination with phosphate salts, and a protein rich diet. Uptake of creatine is increased after training, so this is the best time to take it. If creatine isn’t taken after training, then it should be taken with around 60 grams of glucose or sucrose, since this causes an insulin spike which also increases the uptake.
Lactic acid buffer supplements...
Combining sodium bicarbonate and phosphate salts, such as potassium and
sodium phosphate (but not calcium phosphate...has been found to reduce
physical performance), with CreatineMonohydrate increases the lactic acid
buffering capacities of the creatine (one of the pathways through which creatine increases performance), and act as performance enhancing boosters in their own right.

12 physiological benefits of hgh and human growth hormone supplements for bodybuilders...

12 physiological benefits of hgh and human growth hormone supplements for bodybuilders...

It has long been recognized by bodybuilders that growth hormone (GH), a polypeptide hormone secreted in a burst like manner from the anterior pituitary gland, is enormously important with the growth process of muscle tissue. The following are one dozen reasons why every bodybuilder should learn to utilize this important hormone in their training for maximum muscle growth and fat loss.

>Increases protein synthesis

>Increases utilization of fatty acids

>Increases amino acid transport across cell membranes

>Increases lipolysis (fat breakdown)

>Increases availability of glucose and amino acids

>Increases collagen synthesis

>Stimulates cartilage growth

>Increases retention of nitrogen, sodium, potassium, and phosphorus

>Increases renal plasma flow

>Promotes compensatory renal hypertrophy

>Decreases glucose utilization

>Decreases glycogen synthesis

What this means to you in one simple sentence is more muscle and faster recovery, and less body fat…in less time.
