Sure, right away we think, heck yeah I need to eat a protein bar at some point during the day, but then you start getting sick of one kind and decide to switch to another kind and forget to look at the ingredients and soon to find out, you're ingesting more sugar than your body really needs. For a post workout meal, a higher sugar/carb bar is fine, but sitting around at your office chomping on one of these 'health bars' can do more damage than good.
I've given you a simple link to the world famous Bodybuilding.com website and guarantee that they will have the right bar for you.
I can also tell you that the Supreme Protein Bars are excellent and they will not create that high of an insulin output as some do.
So the moral of the story is, don't rely on these bars, just be cautious when selecting which one is best for you, because there are some junk bars out there and you're probably better off having a snickers bar than one of the bad so called 'protein bars'.
Hope this helps - if you have a question, feel free to contact us here and we can give you more detailed advice if needed.

This is a pretty common question people ask, especially when just getting started with a unique workout routine.
The answer is the following:
* 1-6 reps for increasing strength
* 6-10 for hypertrophy (size)
* 12-15 for endurance and lean muscle development
What also comes into consideration is the amount of calories you're eating per day.
Obviously the more you eat, the more you'll gain, and vice-versa.
Hopefully those numbers help you out and can help you get started on a new plan and reach those goals you're looking for.

Super-setting involves the grouping of 2 or more exercises performed in sequence without rest. There are 2 ways of super-setting: one in which exercises for the same body part are grouped and the other where exercises for opposing body parts are paired together. Arnold was a fan of both of these variations, but he applied super-setting most faithfully to his chest/back workouts.
There are several advantages to alternating chest and back exercises.
1) It saves time and the workout goes much faster.
2) You can handle heavier weight for more mass and power.
3) You get a greater pump and a continuous flushing effect of both areas for the entire workout, and you keep that muscle pump longer.
4) Greater muscle-density results because you can work to the absolute limit of your physical capacity.

If your food is missing nutrients, taking supplements can help you make up the difference. Shop for these to be sure you're covered.
Multi-Vitamin:
Coupled with a balanced diet, this will take care of your vitamins, minerals and trace elements.
Fish Oil:
This helps get your omega-3 fatty acids into your diet. Take 1-3 grams , two to three times per day with meals.
CLA:
Since it's hard to find or afford grass-fed beef, take 2-3 grams of this powerful fatty acid, with each meal.
I've been taking this supplement for years now and it works, just a bit different than a thermogenic.
ZMA:
Zinc and Magnesium are 2 minerals that are fading from many staple foods, so it only makes sense to add some testosterone boosting ZMA into your diet. Taking before bed is the ideal time for this product.
You'll also want to make sure your Carbs, Proteins and Fats are in the right portions based on your specific fitness/nutrition goals.

July 31 was a hot one for Team MFCC competitors at the Warrior Dash in Kansas City, MO.
3.5 miles of grueling terrain, raunchy mud pits, hay bales, barbed wire, etc. - Every Team MFCC'er finished with little to no injuries. The course was officially closed approx. 1.5 hours after Team MFCC started due to an extreme heat advisory, being the temp was in the 100's.
Congrats to all the athletes that competed and to Team MFCC'ers, Brandon, Mark, Jarrod plus all the ladies!
