8 Foods That Can Get You Stacked

8 Foods That Can Get You Stacked - Body Beast on Demand
 8 Foods That Can Get You Stacked!

Guys and "some girls" are always looking for ways to gain muscle mass. I mean, what guy out there  hasn't ever thought of getting STACKED! There's really no secret to gaining muscle mass naturally. It's pretty simple, if you stay consistent, lift heavy, and add these 8 ingredients to your nutrition on a weekly basis, you will soon to be stacked.  

8 FOODS THAT CAN GET YOU STACKED:

1. ALMONDS - Vitamin E is an antioxidant that can help prevent free-radical damage after heavy workouts, and almonds are hands down one of the best sources of alpha-tocopheral vitamin E. The less damage from free-radicals, the faster your muscles will recover and that's when your muscles grow.

2. EGGS - The protein in eggs has the highest biological value of any food including beef, but you have to eat the yolk. Other than just protein, eggs also have vitamin B12 which aids in fat breakdown and muscle contraction. Eggs are packed with other vitamins and minerals such as riboflavin, folate, B6, B12, D, and E, phosphorous, iron, and zinc.

3.  SALMON - It's packed with high-quality protein and omega-3 fatty acids. Omega-3's are known to decrease muscle-protein breakdown after your workout which improves recovery. Why is this important? It's quite simple, because in order to build muscle, you need to store new protein faster than it takes for your body to break down the old stuff. Plus, consuming Salmon reduces your risk of heart disease and diabetes, because who wants that anyways.

4.  YOGURT - Has one of the best combinations of protein and carbs for exercise recovery and muscle growth. It's recommended to buy the regular ones with fruit at the bottom, and not the sugar free ones. The extra carbs from the fruits will boost your blood levels of insulin, which is one of the ways to reducing post-exercise protein breakdown.

5.  BEEF - Beef is a major source of iron and zinc which are two crucial muscle-building nutrients. It's also the number one food source of creatine, which is your body's energy supply for pumping iron. For maximum muscle mass without all the unwanted calories, shoot for "rounds" or "loins".

6.  OLIVE OIL - Also known as "Liquid Energy", the monounsaturated fat in olive oil can act as an anticatabolicnutrient, which can prevent muscle breakdown by lowering levels of a sinister cellular protein called tumor necrosis factor-a...I know, BIG WORDS! The extra virgin variety is better because it has a higher level of vitamin E.

7.  COFFEE - Bottom line, fueling your workouts with caffeine will help you lift longer. On a recent study from Medicine and Science in Sports and Exercise, they found that men who drank 2 1/2 cups of coffee a few hours before an exercise test were able to sprint 9 percent longer than when they didn't drink any. And since sprinting and lifting are anaerobic exercises (requires no oxygen), a little jolt of some JOE can help you pump more reps. If you have a history of high-blood pressure, then skip this.

8.  WATER - Did you know that muscles are 80% water? Me either! Even a change of as little as 1% in body water can compromise your exercise performance and recovery. Just to make sure that you are not dehydrated throughout the day, try weighing yourself before and after your workouts, then drink 24 ounces of water for every pound lost. FYI, the more dehydrated you are, the slower your body uses protein to build muscle.

So there you have it. 8 Foods That Can Get You Stacked! If you are interested in joining my Body Beast Fitness Challenge and Accountability Group, message me! I'll be sure to help you with your muscle mass goals.

Net Worth of some Beachbody Celebrity Trainers:

TONY HORTON - $20 million, Tony Horton net worth and salary: Tony Horton is an American fitness trainer who has a net worth of $20 million dollars. Tony Horton was born Anthony Sawyer Horton, Jr. in Westerly, Rhode Island, in July 1958. He is probably best known for creating the world famous P90X home fitness program. Prior to entering the business world, Tony attended the University of Rhode Island. In 1980 he moved to Los Angeles to become an actor and also did stand-up comedy. He worked out at the World Gym in Venice, CA which also housed Arnold Schwarzenegger and Lou Ferrigno. Mark Sisson introduced Horton to internal training. Horton became a personal trainer and started a business called ASH Fitness in Santa Monica, CA. His clients included Billy Idol, Tom Petty, Stevie Nicks, Shirley MacLaine, Sean Connery, Antonio Banderas, and Bruce Springsteen. He was a former spokesman for NordicTrack exercise equipment. In 2001 he came out with the in-home program Power 90. In 2004 he created P90X or Power 90 Extreme. As of 2010 over four million copies of P90X had been sold. In 2011 he released P90X2 and in 2013, P90X3. His first book Bring It! was published in 2010. In 2014 Horton came out with P90, which was billed as on "on switch" to fitness.

SHAUN T - $10 million,  Shaun Thompson is an American fitness trainer who has a net worth of $10 million dollars. Born in Camden, New Jersey, Shaun Thompson, also known as Shaun T., graduated from Rowan University, where he earned a degree in Sports Science and a minor in Theater/Dance. He began working as a trainer at various fitness centers, such as Equinox, and used his dance training to improve his aerobics classes. He began his professional career in fitness working at Wyeth, a pharmaceutical company, as a trainer and health program manager. He then moved to Los Angeles, and began working as a choreographer, trainer, and dancer, eventually dancing for Mariah Carey, among other music stars. While working at Equinox in L.A., he was invited to submit a workout video to Beachbody, LLC. He began making workout videos for Beachbody in 2006 with "Hip Hop Abs", and shot to stardom with his "Insanity" workout series.


And there you have it! For a complete list go here. If you notice, most of the athletes are entrepreneurs. These athletes were smart enough to know that they could not be on top forever, so they diversified their income and started businesses on the side. This concept is not just for the top athletes around the world, anyone could use this strategy! Be smart, do something on the side, because there is nothing wrong with having multiple sources of income. But whatever you do, I highly recommend that you do what you love, and love what you do with passion.


See you on the beaches of the world!

TABATA POWER Workout - Insanity MAX 30

Tabata Power - Insanity Max 30 - Tabata Training
 Tabata Power - Insanity Max 30

So what is Tabata? The Tabata Workout is "High Intensity Interval Training" (H.I.I.T Training) which is structured to working out hard for 20 minutes, and resting for 10 seconds for 6-8 rounds.  There are no weights in Tabata Power - Insanity Max 30, your weight is your body, and trust me, you will be begging for mercy.


I really enjoy this workout, and my leg strength has definitely increased. As an obstacle course racing athlete, leg strength is very important. Although Insanity Max 30 workouts do not use weights, I do incorporate some P90X and Body Beast Strength workouts because I enjoy lifting and working out with weights. This all depends on your goals.

Tabata Training - Insanity MAX 30

As with all Shaun T workouts, Tabata Power is just insane, but thank goodness for the full-time modifier, anyone can do this and get through it. I made it all the way to the end, but I had to modify a couple times. As with any workout, always listen to your body and make sure that you are using proper form. It's not about how fast you go, it's about doing your best, and powering through with good form.

TOP 9 Reasons Why People Hate Money

TOP 9 Reasons Why People Hate Money - From a Beachbody Coach
 TOP 9 Reasons Why People Hate Money

I have met a lot of people who were motivated by money and witnessed them build huge businesses, then fall right back down to rock bottom. I've also met some brilliant people through my travels, some of whom have graduated from the most prestigious universities in the world (not that it matters), and they had little or no money, and they were happy as can be. I am 44 years old, and can honestly say that I have been on both sides of the spectrum. It wasn't too long ago that I was in the nightlife industry, and I built a lifestyle marketing business to a six-figure income. My business specialized in hosting hedonistic parties, special events, and nightlife/concierge travel services. I was living a life that most people dreamed of, but I was not happy. I had a huge business and only a handful of real friends. That all changed when I turned my life around and started living a more healthier and fit lifestyle. I went from night clubs to fit clubs! I changed my whole mind-set and despised money. I hated money because it reminded me of all the fake friends that I had in the past, and all the mistakes that I made when I thought I was invincible. I hurt a lot of people during the process, and I just didn't want to do it again.


"I went from being broke, to having money, to reaching rock bottom, to making it back on top - this time, I'm doing things right" ~ Coach Arnel

So yes, I understand how some people can hate money. It took me awhile to finally realize the other side of what money can actually do (good things), because I was only exposed to the bad side, and the "Get Rich Quick". I ask that when you read this post, that you read it with an open mind, and then ask yourself this question, what do I do with my money?

TOP 9 Reasons Why People Hate Money:

1.  Because they don't have it
2.  Because of jealousy
3.  Because they abused money in the past and are afraid of it
4.  Because they don't know how to manage their finances
5.  Because they compare themselves with others
6.  Because they watch too much TV
7.  Because they think that money can only buy material things
8.  Because they are mad at the world, and quit on themselves and their goals
9.  Because they are negative thinkers and live under a rock

"Money is not the root of all evil, people are"

Here Are 9 Ways That Money Has Helped Me:

-  Start my own business so I can control my income instead of a boss
-  I can travel the world on my own terms
-  I can donate to great causes and my church
-  I can support and spend more time with my family
-  I can eat healthier, or whatever I want. If I want to eat at a nice restaurant, I can.
-  I can pay for my daughter's college tuition to help with her future
-  I have a roof over my head
-  I can help more people on a global scale live a more healthy and fulfilling life
-  I understand that it's not about money, it's what you do with the money that counts, I know that now.

TOP 9 Reasons Why People Hate Money - From a Beachbody Coach
 I am now focused on helping people get healthy and fit physically and financially, I wouldn't change it for the world!

I live a very simple life, but yes......I still enjoy nice things. I don't need to stay at the Four Seasons, but it is nice every once in awhile. I have no motivation or passion to buy a Bugatti, but I do appreciate what it takes to create the masterpiece. You don't have to be money-motivated to achieve big goals, and I am proof of that. Money means many things to different people, so please stop blaming it on the paper (if you are that type of person), it's not the paper, it's YOU.

If money has helped you do some amazing things, please feel free to comment below and share it with me, I'd love to hear from you! =)

HIKING Muddy Mountains Wilderness - Las Vegas

Hiking Muddy Mountains Wilderness - Las Vegas
 Hiking Muddy Mountains with the Family - Las Vegas

My family and I spent a day exploring the Muddy Mountains Wilderness - Anniversary Narrows Trail which is almost an hour outside of Las Vegas, NV. I visit Las Vegas about once or twice a year because my brother and his family live here, and it's just an awesome place. When you go beyond the glitz and the glamour of the LV Strip, there are plenty of outdoor activities such as hiking, mountain biking, trail running, skiing, snowboarding (Mt. Charleston), and water skiing! I love it here because of the scenery. I grew up around beaches (trust me, I'm not complaining), but when I travel, I do prefer to visit places which are at higher elevation.

Hiking Muddy Mountains Wilderness - Las Vegas

Muddy Mountains Wilderness was absolutely amazing. It's crazy how these mountains and rock formations were actually formed by water over millions of years! Walking through the 600 foot deep slot canyon takes you back in time about 300 million years ago. Even more amazing is that people have lived in and passed through these mountains for thousands of years. They have left behind rock art, artifacts, agave roasting pits, and rock shelters.


We didn't get a chance to make it up the highest peak which is called Muddy Peak, so I'll have to come back next time. I created a quick 2 minute video from our fun family hike, so feel free to watch it. And as always, stay active my friends!

Insanity MAX 30 - Friday Fight Round 1

Insanity Max 30 - Friday Fight Round 1 Workout
 Insanity Max 30 - Friday Fight Round 1

I did a sneak peek into the Insanity Max 30 Friday Fight Round 1 Workout, and I would have to say that you really have to be humble coming into this workout. I have done all of the P90X and Insanity Extreme Programs, and the thing about Shaun T, he continues to push you to the limits, and I absolutely love it. When Shaun T said he was back, he wasn't playing! =)


My overall experience on this workout was that is more focused on legs and core. There were some upper body and shoulder focused movements, but I found that my legs were the primary target. Once I did all the cardio and leg based movements, I felt pretty beat by the time I got to the upper body movements. Yes, you can pace yourself until you reach the end of the workout, but that's not what Insanity Max 30 Workouts is all about. It's about finding your MAX, pushing yourself to the limits (with proper form of course), then trying to beat that #maxout time. The more you push yourself and surpass your max out times, the better results that you will get. I felt pretty good doing this workout for the first time, and I maxed out at 17:50. Looking forward to continue increasing that time =).

Everything You Need To Know About 21 Day Fix EXTREME

 Everything You Need To Know About 21 Day Fix Extreme

For all of you 21 Day Fix and Autumn Calabrese fans out there, the NEW 21 Day Fix Extreme is coming February 2015. It's time for a new FIX! Here's some information from the Princess of portion control on what to expect from her new program!

HOW WOULD YOU DESCRIBE 21 DAY FIX EXTREME?
It's to get you seriously shredded in a very short period of time. The 21 day fitness and nutrition program will combine simple portion control, focused nutrition, and extreme 30 minute workouts.

INSPIRATION FOR THE PROGRAM
The original 21 Day Fix Program has helped so many people transform their lives with health and fitness, and now it's not only about that, it's about kicking it up a notch, or two! It's about challenging people to push past their comfort zones and see how far they can take their body in 21 days.

AUTUMNS FAVORITE ASPECTS ABOUT THE PROGRAM
The new program will be using weights or resistance bands and will offer two new and different meal plans depending how extreme one wants to push it.

Beachbody Portion Fix Now Available!

WHO IS IT FOR AND WHY WOULD THEY BENEFIT FROM IT?
The new 21 Day Fix Extreme program is for people with a dramatic short-term weight loss deadline like a big event, vacation or a photo shoot. It's also for 21 Day Fix grads and people who have done P90X, Insanity, and Focus T25. It's also for people who don't have much weight to lose, and are ready to get shredded and finally get a six-pack. And lastly, it is also for people who dislike counting calories , weigh their food or follow complicated recipes. It's designed to make losing weight and getting shredded simple.

HOW ARE THE WORKOUTS COMPARED TO 21 DAY FIX?
The workouts are similar as they are all 30 minutes. The basic movements are still there, but now they are just more challenging. Weights are used in everything but the yoga and breaks in between intervals are much shorter. There is also a modifier to accommodate everyone.

WHAT IS THE COUNTDOWN TO COMPETITION MEAL PLAN?
It's Autumn's secret to shred fat and lean out. It's the same plan that she follows for a big competition or a photo shoot. It's a tough mental challenge, but well worth it.
