Welcome Everyone coming over from PACLAND!!

Now That Pacland is getting the updates on my blog, I wanted to do a quick re-cap on why Manny Pacquiao will be at his best come May 7Th 2011. These are two keys that we focus on during training. These two keys are just a part of the total equation of success. We will be writing all of the keys to success for everyone to read and learn. We will be combining past articles with future articles so when new people join in they can be caught up with what we have previously spoke about.

Water Hydration How important is it? Probably more important than anyone imagined. Did you know that water will actually help your joints from inflammation? Maintaining proper hydration can do far more for your body than just helping you lose weight. Fluid intake will promote circulation and help to reduce the toxicity that leads to joint inflammation. Believe it or not, I believe that water is one of the biggest ways to relieve joint pain. It can also play a huge part with preventing Arthritis. Rheumatoid joint pain ? arthritis ? is a signal of water shortage in the painful joint that you are feeling. It can affect the young and the old. Arthritis is most commonly known as something older people get, but it is not. Many pregnant woman experience this, as well as athletes, young or old. Shortage of water can cause lower back pain, because of the dehydration in the joint cavities.

Without enough water and other fluids, you?ll die within the week. Although water does not provide energy in the same way carbohydrates and fat do, it plays a very important role in energy transformation. Water is the medium in which all energy reactions take place. Therefore, you need to drink a lot of water for health, stamina, fuel, and building muscle. Drinking water for health is an important aspect of building muscle.

Water is everywhere in your body. Think of a shuttle carrying everything to where it needs to go. This is what water does. Water becomes the shuttle carrying the necessary nutrients to your cells and transporting waste in order to get it out of your body. Water basically fills every space in your body and helps form the structures we have spoke about regarding protein and glycogen. In order to move muscle, you need water. Muscle is considered an active tissue and water is found in the highest concentrations in active tissue. Water is really found everywhere, but I want to highlight key areas you might not have thought about. If your body is dehydrated, chances are you?re not going to have a very productive work out sessions. I mean how can you if your muscles are deprived of electrolytes. Remember muscles are controlled by nerves. The electrical stimulation of nerves and contraction of muscles are the result of the exchange of electrolyte minerals dissolved in water. It?s essential that you drink water for health and building muscle, and to relieve yourself from joint pain. Without enough water, your muscles are not getting enough electrolytes. Water also helps out with the lubrication of your joints. Water is an ingredient in the makeup of the synovial fluid, which is the lubricating fluid between your joints. During a workout, Manny Pacquiao?s body goes through a stressful event. During this stressful event his body begins to release cortisol. We need to counteract the body feeling stressed. We do not want it to begin eating off itself. Since your body is now depleted after a workout it will be looking for somewhere to find calories to burn. The first place it will look is from the muscle. By making sure Pacquiao gets adequate protein and amino acids will help to prevent any negative effects we do not want to happen. The body is also depleted of glucagen after a workout, so when you eat your first meal with white rice and fruits it will cause a good insulin spike, carrying those amino acids to the muscle cells. When we do a protein shake immediately after eating it is to make sure Manny Pacquiao gets enough protein. For someone to think it is a waste of protein, because they have also consumed some beef or chicken is dead wrong. First, the protein powder will get absorbed first, because it is broken down in the body the faster. So when you your chicken is breaking down in your body, that white rice you just ate has turned to sugar, causing insulin to be released, and is transporting all those amino acids from the protein powder to the awaiting muscle bellies. We are preventing too much muscle breakdown and any unnecessary stress in the body. This causes the cortisol to stop being produced and allows your body to begin its process of healing when you get your next rest. A short period of time after Pacquiao?s body has utilized all the protein from the protein powder the chicken and or beef.has digested and it is it?s turn to be utilized in the body for all of it?s caloric intake purposes. It is my opinion the protein from the foods will now digest easier now that your body is calmed down.
