BIG RED COACHING
|
|
Hey Sharks,
For most of you I dont need an introduction, but for some of you I might. My name is Josh Hunsberger and I am one of the charter Sharks. So I was with Clint on his back porch when we had our first meeting. I lived in New Haven for the past 6 years (2001-2007) where I completed my PhD at Yale in neuroscience. I am now down in Bethesda, MD, working at the National Institute of Health where I study bipolar illness. In addition, I also love the sport of triathlon. I came into the sport as a runner inspired by my Mom, but I also had some swimming and biking background. Ive competed in numerous race distances ranging from sprint triathlons and 5Ks to Ironman distance triathlons and Ultramarathons. Now I am turning my attention to coaching. I love making up training plans and sharing my experience with others to help them achieve their dreams. You can find more out about why I want to start coaching now, my coaching philosophy, my coaching plan, and my credentials on my website. If you have any questions or are in the DC area and want to meet up for a run, a race, a drink,
etc. just drop me an email.

~CLIF SHOT BLOKS - The Latest Energy Food Option for Endurance Athletes.
Variety is the spice of life we couldnt agree more. We understand (cause weve been there) that after numerous hours of training and racing, the body needs to mix it up a little in terms of what goes in the tank. Thats why we set out to create another energy food option that would complement our bars and gels. The result is CLIF SHOT BLOKS. Theyre simple-to-handle, easy-to- chew, and provide similar nutrition to SHOT® gel, so theyll fit seamlessly into your training and racing nutrition program.
Nutrition Carbohydrates and Electrolytes
SHOT BLOKS offer very similar nutrition to SHOT Energy Gel. The primary ingredient for both is brown rice syrup which provides easily assimilated carbohydrates for working muscles. Both products also provide the mineral salts known as electrolytes. These electrolytes allow electrical impulses to travel properly throughout your body, permitting normal bodily function. When you sweat, you start to deplete your electrolyte stores and experience potential performance decline, so its best to help replenish them through food and fluid intake. Team Price is $24.88 per box of 24 @ 2 servings per. (shipping included)
~CLIF SHOT® Electrolyte is designed to deliver fluids to your body at an optimal rate as you sweat them out. Electrolyte contains high levels of sodium and tartness, so that it will quench your thirst, and then subtly prime your thirst mechanism. That way, you keep drinking and stay hydrated.
After hard training or racing, you could be moderately dehydrated. Start your recovery with a beverage. By re-hydrating right after activity, your body will come back to life much faster than if you remain dehydrated.
~Mix CLIF SHOT® Recovery with water, so that you not only take in needed nutrients, but also the most vital of all water!
Carbohydrates
Running out of stored carbohydrate (bonking) is the most limiting factor for endurance athletes. Most people store about 1,600 calories worth of carbohydrate in their muscles and liver. Thats not even ½ the calories needed to run a marathon! CLIF SHOT® Electrolyte allows you to take in additional carbohydrates and push back the time when you could potentially run out of your own stored carbohydrates.
The longer and harder you go, the more carbohydrate you burn. If you do not replace this carbohydrate on a regular basis, then your stores may become chronically low. Post-activity, there is a 30-minute window of opportunity for maximum up-take of carbohydrate by your muscles. As soon as you complete your activity, reach for CLIF SHOT® Recovery.
Electrolytes
Mineral salts such as sodium chloride, potassium, magnesium, and calcium are known collectively as electrolytes. These electrolytes allow electrical impulses to travel properly throughout your body, permitting normal bodily function. When you sweat, you start to deplete your electrolyte stores.
Similar to dehydration, electrolyte depletion will first lead to performance declines and then onto more serious health issues. CLIF SHOT® Electrolyte and CLIF SHOT ® Recovery provide you with ample amounts of sodium, potassium, magnesium, and calcium to counteract the losses in your sweat. Team Price is $12.00 per 22 - 16oz. serving of Electrolyte and 14.50 per 12 16oz. serving or the Recovery. (shipping included)
~CLIF Nectar is the essence of that 'keep it simple' advice. Our organic fruit and nut addition to the CLIF BAR family is bursting with flavor. CLIF Nectar is the essence of nature. The essence of simple.
Gary and Kit Owners of Clif Bar Inc.
An entirely organic fruit and nut bar carefully crafted with simple, straightforward ingredients, CLIF Nectar comes in 4 unique and great-tasting flavor combinations. Team Price is 16.25 per box of 9. (Including shipping)
