Prostate enlargement is known by the medical term Benign Prostatic Hyperplasia or BPH. Propecia, or as it's generically known, Finasteride, is a medication that inhibits the enzyme necessary for the conversion of testosterone to DHT in the prostate. Therefore, administration of finasteride lowers blood and tissue DHT levels and helps reduce the size of the prostate gland and reduce hairloss.

This post describes some of the effects of dietary boron on 12 women between the ages of 48 and 82 housed in a metabolic unit. A boron supplement of 3 mg/day markedly affected several indices of mineral metabolism of seven women consuming a low-magnesium diet and five women consuming a diet adequate in magnesium; the women had consumed a conventional diet supplying about 0.25 mg boron/day for 119 days. Boron supplementation markedly elevated the serum concentrations of testosterone; the elevation seemed more marked when dietary magnesium was low. The findings suggest that supplementation of a low- boron diet with an amount of boron commonly found in diets high in fruits and vegetables induces changes in postmenopausal women consistent with the prevention of calcium loss and bone demineralization. Since increased testosterone levels will aid fat loss in both adult males and females of any age…it stands to reason that a boron supplement could aid fat loss in post meno-pausal women who have been following a conventional low-boron diet .&lt;br /&gt;So, in conclusion, 3mg a day of boron may be a valuable supplement for the health and fat loss of post menopausal women. Alternatively…and probably better, the 3 mg should be consumed through whole food sources. (see table below). The only thing to watch through this approach is to choose foods not too calorie dense to supply the boron. Eg. Choose beans rather than bananas…or else you might end up even fatter than ever!&lt;br /&gt;Richard Hargreaves&lt;br /&gt;1984 Mr Australia&lt;br /&gt;CEO www.ironpower.biz&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Ref: Effect of dietary boron on mineral, estrogen, and testosterone metabolism in postmenopausal women&lt;br /&gt;FH Nielsen, CD Hunt, LM Mullen and JR Hunt&lt;br /&gt;United States Department of Agriculture, Grand Forks Human Nutrition Research Center, North Dakota 58202.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Boron content in food&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Boron content of some common foods&lt;br /&gt;Food Boron concentration in mg/kg, fresh weight basis&lt;br /&gt;Hunt et al.

This is underlined by the fact that most sporting bodies, such as the IOC, have it on their list of banned or prohibited substances. The good news for performance athletes however is that it is possible to get an ergogenic or performance enhancing effect from caffeine at levels which are considered 'legal'. Another little known fact is just how incredibly effective it is at breaking down stored fats so that they can be burnt as energy. Studies have shown that caffeine effects on fat metabolism are significant and it can increase fat burning during aerobic exercise by almost 100%(around double!)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;SUITABLE FOR&lt;/strong&gt;:&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;FAT LOSS AND PHYSIQUE ENHANCEMENT&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;. Male or females that wish to burn more body&lt;br /&gt;fat by taking caffeine before aerobic exercise. Also taking before weight training&lt;br /&gt;increases the intensity of training whilst simultaneously reducing perceived effort.&lt;br /&gt;This ability to train harder while using it means more muscle can be built, and more fat burnt.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;PERFORMANCE ENHANCEMENT: CAFFEINE BENEFITS FOR THE ATHLETE&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;: Athletes wishing to boost their performance can take up to 6mg / kilo of bodyweight and experience performance enhancing effects without going over the 'legal limit'. Feine is a favourite amongst cyclists. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;NUTRITIONAL INFORMATION&lt;/strong&gt;: Caffeine is a methylxanthine. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family:arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;strong&gt;HOW TO USE&lt;/strong&gt;: Ironpower Caffeine comes with a green measuring scoop which holds 250mg when level.

Old pickup trucks don't gradually become Ferraris just by driving them fast, and a pocket calculator won't change into a supercomputer by crunching lots of numbers.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;The human body is different. As weightlifters know, the more that people use their muscles, the stronger they become. And unused muscles do not remain preserved; neglect causes them to waste away, or atrophy.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;It's a remarkable response, one that scientists don't fully understand. Somehow, muscle cells "sense" how they're being used and then remodel themselves to better fit the task. How does this happen? And what exactly is it about exercise that triggers the changes?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;NASA needs to know the answers. Astronauts in space exercise furiously to keep fit. Even so, their muscles tend to weaken.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;"Normally, people's muscles do a lot of work that they're hardly aware of--lifting their bodies and maintaining posture against gravity. In space, that constant muscular work is removed. There's a danger of atrophy," explains Kenneth Baldwin, a professor in the Department of Physiology and Biophysics at the University of California, Irvine.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;With NASA support, Baldwin is researching the inner workings of muscles and plumbing the fundamental mystery: Why do workouts work?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;NASA has a special interest in isometric exercises--i.e., non-moving exercises where an astronaut pushes hard against a fixed surface. Motionless exercises allow for simple lightweight equipment less expensive to launch and less prone to break during a mission. But are they effective?&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;To find out, Baldwin's group gave laboratory rats a workout by activating the rodents' leg muscles with painless electrical stimulation. They tested three types of exercise: muscle contraction, muscle lengthening, and isometric, where the muscle exerts a force while remaining the same length. (Just think of doing push-ups: muscle contraction occurs in the "up" part of a push-up, muscle lengthening during the "down" part, and isometric while holding a push-up midway.)&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;After the sessions, the scientists performed tests to see how the rats' muscles responded. "What we found," says Baldwin, "was that after 12 sessions, all three types of workout tended to provide about the same amount of muscle growth," even the isometric exercises that involved no motion.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;This was nothing new. Other scientists had come to the same conclusions before. But Baldwin's group took their analysis a step further:&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;In addition to measuring overall muscle mass--how "buff" were the rats?--they also measured the amount of contractile proteins within the muscle cells. Contractile proteins are what actually cause a muscle to contract. They are what give a muscle its strength.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;To their surprise, Baldwin's team found that while isometric exercises did prevent leg muscles from withering, they did not stop a decline in the amount of contractile proteins in those muscles. The muscle was actually degrading on the molecular level.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;No one knows why this is so, but one thing seems clear: Isometric exercise might not be the best way to maintain astronaut muscles. Baldwin plans to investigate further with just-renewed funding from NASA.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;A more unconventional possibility is that astronauts could stave off muscle atrophy by taking a pill. Anti-atrophy pills are only speculative right now, Baldwin says, but there are reasons to believe that they might be possible. That's because when atrophy sets in, the muscle isn't just withering away passively -- it's actively breaking itself down!&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;A complex network of enzymes within the muscle's cells disassembles muscle proteins molecule by molecule. "In order to chop those proteins up, you use a lot of energy," notes Baldwin. If scientists could pinpoint a key "lynchpin" enzyme in this network, they may be able to design a drug to block its action, thus slowing the breakdown of the muscle.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;This active breakdown of muscle protein is going on all the time in everybody's muscles, as is the constant assembly of new proteins. Whether a muscle grows, shrinks, or stays the same size depends on the balance between these rates of destruction and construction, a bit like the water level in a bathtub that's both filling and draining at the same time.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Baldwin is taking a look at the mechanisms behind the "construction" half of this balance. In particular, his group is focusing on a hormone called Insulin-like Growth Factor 1 (IGF-1). Muscles produce IGF-1 in response to strenuous exercise, and this hormone in turn activates enzymes in the muscle cells that cause the cells to grow. Indeed, Baldwin found that levels of IGF-1 in the rats' muscles were higher just after exercising.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;"Some people think that it's the mechanical stress that turns the gene (for IGF-1) on, but we really don't understand that process yet. What we do know is that IGF-1 triggers muscle growth," Baldwin explains.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Might supplements of IGF-1 be used to ensure that construction of muscle proteins keeps pace with protein destruction in astronauts? Baldwin says they're entertaining the idea and are already discussing ways in which that might be done.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;If they're successful, it will be good news for more than just astronauts. After all, we're all owners of that incredible, self-adapting machine called the human body.&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ironpower.biz/2005/04/why-do-workouts-work.html' title='Why do Workouts Work?'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ironpower.biz/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9099413/posts/default/111399696846474118'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9099413/posts/default/111399696846474118'/><author><name>Richard Hargreaves</name></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099413.post-111238795277561679</id><published>2005-04-02T04:38:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2005-04-02T04:39:12.776+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Concentration and Success</title><content type='html'>Law of Success &lt;br /&gt; &lt;br /&gt;The first law of success is concentration.

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&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/blockquote&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Dear Posi&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;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® ).&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;They contain varying amounts of sodium bicarbonate...depending on the  formula (lemon-lime flavor Contains: Aspirin 325 mg. sodium bicarbonate 1700  mg&lt;br /&gt;      Citric acid 1000 mg   ...extra strength formula contains:Aspirin 500  mg. sodium bicarbonate 1985 mg Citric acid 1000 mg.)&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;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)&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;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.&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;If the taste of sodium bicarb bothers you, take it in divided doses(see my  article for how to do this &lt;a href="http://ironpower.biz/sup/sup_energy2.htm"&gt;http://ironpower.biz/sup/sup_energy2.htm&lt;/a&gt;) with  flavour and citric acid (to give it fizz)&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;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!)&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;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!&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;kind regards&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;Richard Hargreaves&lt;/div&gt;  &lt;div&gt;ps Learn more about Powerstack by clicking here &lt;a href="http://ironpower.biz/powerstack_buy_creatinemonohydrate.htm"&gt;http://ironpower.biz/powerstack_buy_creatinemonohydrate.htm&lt;/a&gt; and  &lt;a href="http://ironpower.biz/products_powerstack.htm"&gt;http://ironpower.biz/products_powerstack.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ironpower.biz/2005/03/alkaseltzer-performance-booster.html' title='AlkaSeltzer performance booster'/><link rel='related' href='http://www.ironpower.biz' title='AlkaSeltzer performance booster'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ironpower.biz/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9099413/posts/default/111158129705962098'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9099413/posts/default/111158129705962098'/><author><name>Richard Hargreaves</name></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099413.post-111017154833185403</id><published>2005-03-07T12:56:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2005-03-07T13:08:53.000+08:00</updated><title type='text'>Amazing Mind Control Secret…Your Key to Ultimate Success</title><content type='html'>&lt;p face="arial" class="MsoNormal"&gt;Understand and apply this one secret to your own life, and watch how fast and profoundly success will start chasing you....&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p face="arial" class="MsoNormal"&gt;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.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="font-family: arial;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;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...&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="font-family: arial;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;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" &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="font-family: arial;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;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?&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;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. &lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="font-family: arial;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;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.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="font-family: arial;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;As A Man Thinketh has influenced many contemporary writers including Anthony Robbins, Denis Waitley, Earl Nightingdale, and Dr Norman Vincent Peale, among others.&lt;/p&gt;   &lt;p style="font-family: arial;" class="MsoNormal"&gt;&lt;span style=""&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;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.

My question is if im taking this half an hour before training, can i sip on a shake after taking the stak but before my training???&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;thanks Adam&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;em&gt;Hi Adam&lt;br /&gt;Definetely NOT!!! That is the worst thing you could do. The amino acids in your protein shake would compete with the aminos in the GH Stack in crossing the blood brain barrier to stimulate the release of HGH from your pitiuitary gland...thus rendering the GH Stack ineffective...or at least greatly diminishing its effects and your results. Drink your shake after training (I'm presuming it's a protein shake). Only drink water before training...and lots of it...this can actually benefit your results.Make sure you have plenty of carbs and creatine after training as well. Ironpower's Powerstack is the best choice since it contains high amounts of potassium phosphate, sodium bicarbonate and high glycemic sugar, as well as 5 grams of creatine per serve.

A new FREE report written by muscle and strength expert, 1984 Mr Australia Richard Hargreaves, reveals the sporting advantage that carrying extra muscle can provide. The special report not only investigates the physical and psychological advantages a lean and muscular body provides...but also gives tips and tricks how anybody...male or female...can quickly gain a competitive advantage through muscle building using correct training, diet and supplementation techniques.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hewitt trained hard in the off-season, following a program of cross- training with his buddy, Andrew McLeod, who plays for a leading Australian Rules football team, the Adelaide Crows. The end result is a strikingly muscular physique, which Hewitt has been showing off by wearing sleeveless shirts.&lt;br /&gt;Says Richard..."The 56 page report isn't some huge treatise on bodybuilding...just a simple muscle building guide to quickly build strength and muscle in minimum time with a minimum amount of effort. A common misconception is that you have to spend hours in the gym pumping weights, eating weird foods and taking copious amounts of vitamins. Nothing could be further from the truth. By applying the latest scientific muscle building research with a common sense, practical approach...anyone can start getting noticeable and measurable results within days."&lt;br /&gt;One particular ergogenic aid, creatine monohydrate, when correctly used can add several kilos of muscular bodyweight in under a week...with a proportionate increase in strength. Says Richard..."the discovery of creatine monohydrate for muscle building and improving sporting performance legally is one of the breakthroughs in nutritional science over the last few years...first used as a secret weapon by the British track and field team at the 1992 Barcelona Olympics...it has now moved into the mainstream market as the fastest way to build muscle strength and power ever discovered...with initial results better, faster and most importantly, safer than resorting to dangerous and illegal anabolic steroids."&lt;br /&gt;Richard, a professional personal trainer and former gym owner, has had much experience at muscle building and training sports stars...including getting former Wimbledon star Pat Cash back on track in the late 80's after he tore his Achilles tendon. Other tennis notables that trained at Richard's gym were Nicole Provis and Todd Woodbridge...amongst other Australian sporting greats such as cricketers Merv Hughes and Simon O'Donnel.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The new muscle building report, entitled "Instant Muscle Advantage...Just Add Water (and a little sweat)" covers 4 main areas. Richard considers these the 4 key elements to muscle building success-Attitude, Exercise, Diet, and Ergogenics (performance enhancers). The exercise section reveals a secret muscle building training routine that has proved to be the most effective for packing on muscle fast that Richard has come across in his 3 decades of experience.

Ironpower has raced to the lead in website traffic…beating Musashi, Aussie Bodies, and Aminoactive(Max's).&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Says Richard Hargreaves, former Mr Australia and CEO of Ironpower, “It’s very rewarding to be ahead of these three giants in the Australian sports supplement industry in such a short time. Based on Alexa.com statistics, an Amazon owned company which ranks websites according to traffic, Ironpower is now in the top 1.8% of websites around the world for web visitors, out of 16.6 million active websites on the net.”&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Musashi.com.au, Aussie Bodies.com.au, and Aminoactive.com.au have all been running for several years, whereas ironpower.biz only went online October the 8th 2004.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;The comparison is based on the average daily traffic visiting the Musashi, Aussie Bodies, Aminoactive(Max's)and Ironpower websites over the last 3 months.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Says Richard, "I put the success down to the Ironpower site being content rich with lots of valuable but free information on training, diet and supplements. The FREE Bodybuilding eBook downloads for building muscle and losing fat have been very popular with bodybuilders and fitness enthusiasts alike."&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To celebrate the success, Ironpower has released a new FREE e-book entitled '5 Familiar Bodybuilding Troubles-Which Do You Want To Overcome?'&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;To download your free copy, visit &lt;a href="http://ironpower.biz/download.htm" target="_blank"&gt;http://ironpower.biz/download.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-style: italic;"&gt;Keywords:-&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: &amp;quot;Times New Roman&amp;quot;;"&gt;BODYBUILDING SUPPLEMENTS, IRONPOWER, AUSSIEBODIES, MAX'S, AMINOACTIVE, MUSASHI, FREE EBOOKS, EXERCISE, DIET, TRAINING, SUPPLEMENT, BUILDING MUSCLE, LOSING FAT, SPORTS NUTRITION, FITNESS, BODYBUILD&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-size: 12pt; font-family: arial;"&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/span&gt;</content><link rel='alternate' type='text/html' href='http://ironpower.biz/2005/01/ironpower-bodybuilding-supplements.html' title='Ironpower Bodybuilding Supplements Flexes Muscle…Beating Top 3 Australian Heavyweights…Musashi, Aussie Bodies, and Aminoactive (Max&apos;s)'/><link rel='related' href='http://ironpower.biz/musashi_aussiebodies_aminoactive_maxs_bodybuilding_supplements.htm' title='Ironpower Bodybuilding Supplements Flexes Muscle…Beating Top 3 Australian Heavyweights…Musashi, Aussie Bodies, and Aminoactive (Max&apos;s)'/><link rel='replies' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://ironpower.biz/atom.xml' title='Post Comments'/><link rel='self' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9099413/posts/default/110648386027310896'/><link rel='edit' type='application/atom+xml' href='http://www.blogger.com/feeds/9099413/posts/default/110648386027310896'/><author><name>Richard Hargreaves</name></author></entry><entry><id>tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-9099413.post-110615443631982777</id><published>2005-01-20T01:03:00.000+08:00</published><updated>2005-01-20T01:07:16.320+08:00</updated><title type='text'>

</title><content type='html'>&lt;span style="font-family: arial; font-weight: bold;"&gt;PRESS RELEASE&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;Former Mr Australia Richard Hargreaves, today released a FREE 32 page report that identifies several widespread bodybuilding problems. Says Richard “ I have released the new report in e-book format and have done this as a FREE service to encourage more people to continue a lifetime commitment to health and fitness. Many gym goers are apt to throw in the towel if they can’t make significant continual progress in obtaining their ideal body. This valuable book provides solid scientific advice to break through sticking points, and psychological truths to build mental muscle and keep them on the path”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt; The special report investigates five of the most common road blocks that a bodybuilder or fitness enthusiast encounters in their quest to build muscle and lose fat…and what they can do to conquer them. Says Richard “I have trained 9,800 clients over a 3 decade period as a personal trainer and during this time I have discovered some common problems…nasty hindrances which stop an individual from reaching their full physical potential”&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;The book is comprised of five parts, and covers topics such as overtraining, under eating, stretching, mental focus and optimal post workout nutrition.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span style="font-family: arial;"&gt;In the stretching section of the book, Richard reveals one of his secrets for achieving rapid muscular growth.
