Nutrition for Athletes

I want to talk to the men for a moment. I get to tell you about a new scientific breakthrough that is changing the world right now. This is the one of the greatest discoveries of our lifetime and I get to share it with you today. This has been reported in major scientific journals and leading magazines. Ladies and gentlemen it is this, men have skin too!
That’s right, we have skin and it is our largest organ of the body. It is our first line of defense against an increasingly toxic world. Protection of our skin is critical to the overall health of the body. And as always, prevention is the key. I am a competition tennis player and high school coach, so I have spent many hours at a time outside, getting sunburned and wind burned, accumulating a lot of damage. Our head coach a few years ago had a surgery that removed a huge chunk out of his nose, because of skin cancer. He told us afterward that there were things that he knows he could have done to help prevent that from happening. I want to do the best I can to prevent right now. I have to tell you, real men defend their skin. This includes protection from the outside as well as from the inside. The health of your skin can be a good gauge for the health of the rest of your body. Vibrant, glowing skin lets you know that the cells of your body are functioning optimally.
Being an athlete I am very into the science of nutrition. I am focused on using nutrients, such as the My HealthPak, to support at the cellular level, finding clean, balanced foods to fuel the body for performance. These were important to me, skin care was not! I was not excited or interested in it. So how did I start using these products? First of all, I knew that USANA would never put the time and money into research and development of a product unless it had very serious benefits for our health. So I decided to try the line, to see what it would do for me. I purchased the products and began to use them, a few pieces here and there, miss today but I’ll get it tomorrow. I’m doing well if I remember to shave! I realized one day that I would never approach my nutritional program like that. I know that one nutrient supports the next, this one replenishes that one and enhances these others. It is a systematic approach to health that will get the best results. So I committed to doing it right, using the products as they were designed for 4 weeks. I made sure to do the day regimen and the night, which I was terrible about doing.
I did the program correctly for 2 weeks and on week 3, I began to get reactions. I had one person ask me, “Where did you go on your vacation, the Bahamas?”
“I didn’t go anywhere, why do you ask?”
“You look great, like you got some good sun, your skin is just glowing.”

I don’t know about you but I’ll take those complements any time! The next day someone else stopped me.
“Hey, did you lose some weight? You look good, doing something different aren’t you?”
“Yeah, I’m always trying to push to the next level. I’ve been working hard”

Later that day a buddy of mine commented. “Did you start a new lifting program?”
“I’m trying a new chest and back routine, I think it’s really working, don’t you? Really starting to fill out a bit!”

I have to tell you, when you get 5 comments like that in a week it will really put a strut into my walk! It makes you walk tall, you’re the man! But the truth was that I had not been on vacation, I had not lost any weight or bought new clothes. And I had not started a new lifting program! The only thing I had done differently was use the Sensé program the way it was designed. Use the System! It’s a system for a reason. I don’t care if you are a guy or a girl, when you get reactions like that, you keep doing the program.

Here are a couple of things for guys to keep in mind when using the products. Using the Cleanser before you shave can help soften the beard, as well as using the Rice Bran Polisher. It lifts the hair away for the face. The Toner is the best aftershave ever! It has a great refreshing feel to it, with no alcohol to dry out the skin. Definitely my favorite product in the line.
This is Not about fluff and pampering! Sensé has enough science to it to satisfy any man’s curiosity, even some of the same technology that went into the development of the NASA space shuttles. These are cutting-edge products for real everyday use.
So my advise today. Be a Real Man, Defend your Skin!
