We interviewed John Howard, one of the most legendary cyclists in history. During our discussions, John Howard stressed the benefits of using supplements for athletes. In fact, John, encourages everyone at any level of activity, consider using a good liquid dietary supplement every day. Even the Weekend Warriors who exercise just one or two days a week should consider replenishing lost nutrients with a good vitamin/mineral dietary supplement. John Howard also stresses the importance of making sure that his clients are consuming enough protein. When the body breaks down more protein than it takes in that negative loss is called 'cannibalism' of the human body. John recommends using a whey protein because of the high quality and easy absorbable source of protein. Whey protein shakes may be used, as a meal replacements or as a convenient source of high quality protein without the excess calories. Clients at John's training camps are given the MetaboPro Whey shakes from Phoenix Nutritionals. He feels that the MetaboPro shakes offer a high percentage of protein without any excess calories. This is important because cyclists do not want any extra bodyweight. We can learn a great deal from top athletes such as John Howard and his many hundreds of students. If these top athletes can keep their bodies in perfect health with the grueling training and competing, think what the right dietary supplements and protein shakes can do for you! In fact, anyone who exercises somewhat regularly really should be taking a good dietary supplement. Dietary supplements and exercise should go hand in hand as exercise depletes nutrients, especially minerals in the body. John Howard was one of the first to use liquid trace minerals to accelerate the healing of damaged connective tissues and broken bones. He now recommends liquid trace minerals to all of his clients to speed up the healing of sports related injuries. Liquid trace minerals are recommended for all those who exercise, even if it's just as a Weekend Warrior. In fact those who exercise less frequently are often at greater risk for exercise related injuries. Through working with top athletes, John Howard has come to realize the importance of dietary supplements and protein intake for everyone, even those who think they are inactive. Dietary supplements for athletes is a science and John uses exclusively, the formulas from Phoenix Nutritionals. He feels that Phoenix Nutritionals formulas provide the best nutrient intake for his clients. He himself uses several of the Phoenix Nutritionals Formulas to maintain his level of fitness and health.
