After 3 weeks off and two super light workouts to break it in, I was back in the gym full tilt. I went to my Muay Thai class this morning.
Everyone in the class knows about the silent killer in this class and that is taking a break. The longer the break, the worse it is to get back into it. After 2 weeks off some fighters have trouble lasting the entire rounds of sparring or entire length of exercises.
I was pleasantly surprised that my speed and strength was at about 98%. But even more impressive (to myself and others) was the fact that I was able to keep up that endurance for the entire length of the class – 1.5 hours!
My secret? Consistent consumption of the Thrive Adaptogenics Bioactive Beverage! During the last 3 weeks I was actually consuming around 8oz per day, which kept my metabolism and muscles in top shape. I’ve been drinking Noni Juice and taking Natureborn® vitamins since July – the compounding effect is astonishing.
I also didn’t gain any weight during this time. One of my Muay Thai friends jokingly stated (knowing that I was in fact ill) that Noni is the perfect “Lazy man’s weight control supplement.”
I felt amazing after the power class followed by 15 minutes of stretching: feeling strong, straight posture, deep breathing, deep voice, abs tight, feeling really good.
Priceless!
