Know Your Limits, Then Break Through Them!




It’s almost gone! Yes, that’s right! Any time a great OTC product works, it seems to get banned . Many online stores have already discontinued this AMAZING testosterone booster, but you can still get It here at Cutting Edge Nutrition!


What is Novedex XT? Simply a blend of naturally occurring anti-aromatase inhibiting compounds that have been known to dramatically increase natural testosterone levels! Novedex XT should be taken anywhere from four to six weeks, not exceeding four capsules per day. The best time to use this product is right before you go to sleep at night. The reason Novedex XT should be taken at this time is due to the fact that testosterone levels are generally lower at night, so this will help boost your natural levels while you sleep!

Who should use Novedex XT? Anyone looking to gain lean muscle mass should definitely take advantage of this product while it’s still available! This product also works well with Super Pump 250 and Size-On Maximum Performance. It’s definitely the ideal “Mass Stack.” So, if you’ve been looking for a way to exceed your genetic potential, Novedex XT by Gaspari Nutrition is definitely the way to go!

Mass Quest

Day in and day out, grueling weight training sessions of slamming heavy weights in the gym and eating beyond the point of feeling “Full” still leave your body at the same point it was when you first purchased your gym membership. “Why is this?” one might ask. There are several reasons why the body may not be responding to the current journey at hand, the journey to gain lean muscle mass is never easy! First of all, the most important and usually most over looked obstacle is lack of rest! Yes, the body has to have rest in order to grow ! Typically speaking, a body part should be given ATLEAST 72 hours of rest before trained again. With that being said, it’s generally not a good idea to even train a body part that often unless it is one of your weaker body parts. Most training splits for bodybuilding workouts provide anywhere from five to seven days of rest before being trained again.


The second factor to examine is nutrition! Although an individual may consume good sources of protein, are they taking in enough calories from complex carbohydrate sources and healthy fats? As for the protein, the best guideline to abide by is multiply your bodyweight times 1.5 and that is how much protein you need per day in order to gain lean muscle mass. Also, protein needs to be consumed every two to three hours, so the body will remain in an anabolic (muscle building) state instead of going into a catabolic (muscle loss) state. Don’t forget those complex carbs (i.e. oatmeal, sweet potato, brown rice) and of course, your omega 3 fatty acids! Ok, so how do people find the time to get all these good calories in and so often?

Meal replacements have been the answer to this dilemma for years! However, not all meal replacements are created equal. I can remember going to my local supplement store back in my teenage years and looking for a great weight gainer, so I could look just like the guys on the box! However, much to my disappointment, when I looked at the nutrition facts on the label, the sugar content was equivalent to buying a bag of sugar at the grocery store! Luckily for us hardcore athletes today, the supplement industry has evolved tremendously! Now when people ask what I recommend for a good weight gainer/meal replacement, I can HONESTLY tell them about REAL MASS by Gaspari Nutrition! This awesome product gives you 50g of protein and 78g of carbs per serving! Click here for more info about REAL MASS by Gaspari Nutrition

Trying to Find a Whey?


As I have discussed before in another blog, all WHEY proteins are not created equal. There are pure whey protein isolates and then there are concentrates of whey protein. Well, Optimum Nutrition has taken an extra step to bring you another GREAT WHEY protein formula… Platinum Hydro Whey!


Basically what this protein does is “Hydrolyze” larger proteins and break them down into smaller proteins. So, as no surprise, this allows the proteins to travel into your blood stream quicker. This will ensure that your muscles are getting a more rapid recovery from those hardcore weight training sessions. Another great benefit of Platinum Hydro Whey is that it is made from hydrolyzed whey protein isolates. What does that mean? It means that there is no excess fat, cholesterol or lactose.

Platinum Hydro Whey provides your muscles with 30 grams of hydrolyzed whey protein per serving. In addition to that, each serving contains almost nine grams of BCAA’s (isoleucine, leucine, valine). This fast acting whey protein comes in two delicious flavors, Supercharged Strawberry and Turbo Chocolate. If you’ve been lost on the path to muscle gains, then I suggest you try the Platinum Hydro Whey!

Commitment to Excellence

Nothing worth pursuing in life is ever easy!"
Throughout our lives, we often find many road blocks on the highway to success! What separates the winners from the losers in life is how we choose to perceive and go about these barriers. It's easy to look at an obstacle and say, "Well, it's too complicated, I'll go another route!" People who choose to look at life this way usually get by in life, but never step out and achieve that greatness they once had in mind. People in this category generally find themselves experiencing the "Rocking Chair Effect" That simply stated, means when we're older we'll look back and say, "Oh, if only I had done this, or if I had done that!"

Nothing wrong with the personality type I mentioned in the pre-ceeding paragraph, but that's not the characteristics of what makes a great champion of life. A true champion of life will simply look at the barrier and say, "How will I get around this?" At that point, this person starts brain storming for ways around the barrier and setting out small steps in order to reach the major goal at hand, "OVERCOMING THE BARRIER TO SUCCESS!"

If all things in life were easy to accomplish, then everyone alive would be doing great things. Unfortunately, life is not set up this way. We must reach deep within ourselves and figure out what tools we have to achieve greatness! God gave each one of us a unique talent and/or personality trait to, not only achieve our goals, but to differentiate ourselves from others, so that we can be unique in the way we achieve those goals!
