This study, done in Tehran, Iran, was designed as a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled trial to assess the safety and efficacy of Tribulus terrestris (Roid Rage) in women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder during their fertile years. Sixty seven women with hypoactive sexual desire disorder were randomly assigned to Tribulus terrestris (Roid Rage) extract (7.5 mg/day) or placebo for 4 weeks. Desire, arousal, lubrication, orgasm, satisfaction, and pain were measured at baseline and after 4 weeks after the end of the treatment by using the Female Sexual Function Index (FSFI). At the end of the fourth week, patients in the Tribulus terrestris (Roid Rage) group had experienced significant improvement in their total FSFI, desire, arousal, lubrication, and satisfactionI. Frequency of side effects was similar between the two groups.

Pyramid prison burpees

Here's a quick and challenging workout that takes less than 10min:

Pyramid prison burpees.

Equipment required- enough space to run a few meters (we use 10m)

How to do it:

Perform 1 burpee (press up and jump) then run across the room/space and do 2 burpees. Then run back and do 3, and so on, until you reach 10, then work your way back down to 1.

It should look like this:

1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10,9,8,7,6,5,4,3,2.....1

It's harder than it sounds and is very challenging if you constantly strive to beat your personal best.

Short on time? How about 12 min/week?

One of the most often used excuses in not training is not enough time. Well, a colleague and I recently did an experiment, for him to get back in shape, with minimal time. 

Minimal time training does not mean minimal effort. Far from it. 

You will understand what I mean when you first try this routine.

The routine consists of 3 non consecutive days a week training, for the experiment we used Mon/Wed/Fri.

Monday and Friday workouts were identical: the 50 burpee challenge. It's exactly as it sounds, 50 burpees, as fast as possible. All burpees must include a press up & a jump.

Wednesday workouts were tabata Kettlebell swings. (20seconds working, 10seconds resting, repeated for 8 rounds)

When all 8 rounds were able to be completed with no stops during the 20 seconds, a heavier Kettlebell was used the next session.

These workouts were brief, yet very intense, so my colleague made sure he warmed up before starting.

As with all workouts, progress is the most important thing, so record keeping is essential.

How much progress was made?

Well in 6 weeks, his burpee time reduced from 3:48, right down to 1:22, and his Kettlebell weight rose from 20kg, up to 55kg!! 

Pretty amazing for less than 12 min effort each week!

You can only expect to make this sort of progress if you give it EVERYTHING you have got.

I am not saying this routine will make you an endurance athlete, but it will improve your explosive power and cardio.

Protein porridge

Just a quick one:
If u need ideas for a quick pre-workout breakfast, try adding a scoop of your favourite USC protein to your morning porridge before you heat it up- delicious.

Kinny MMA fight conditioning

Today Mark Kinsella came to the USC training facility for his final hard conditioning for his upcoming MMA fight on march 30th.

We put him through 5 rounds of Tabata.

Round 1 shouldering the sandbag
Round 2 sprints on the bike
Round 3 haymakers on the bag
Round 4 prowler push
Round 5 burpees

Each round lasted 4min and was followed by a 1 minute rest. This was to emulate his fight (and then some) of 3 x 3min rounds with 1 minute breaks.

USC Diet Whet Protein Bars - by Ste Passey

By popular demand my recipe for my USC Diet Whey Protein Bars is detailed below. No baking is required and it takes literally 5 minutes to make. I don't measure or weigh anything its pretty much guess work and tailored to my own individual taste. However, everyone seems to like the way I make them.

These bad boys stop me demolishing on all kinds of crap and keep my sweet tooth at bay. The only trouble I have it trying not to eat them all at once. I usually limit myself to 2 per day. I tend to eat one in the morning for breakfast with my USC Diet Whey shake and the other around tea time. I either eat it as a snack or use it as something sweet after my tea.

Ingredients:
1 jar of Peanut Butter
1/4 Jar of Honey (or to taste)
Porridge Oats
USC Diet Whey
Skimmed Milk

Instructions:

1) Heat peanut butter in microwave so that it melts.

2) Pour in mixing bowl.

3) Add honey

4) Add oats until mixture turns to cement (you will understand when you actually do this!)

5) Add protein powder (1 scoop - any flavour)

6) Add a SPLASH of skimmed milk

7) Mix

8) Keep adding Porridge Oats until majority of moisture is absorbed (the oats will stop changing colour)

9) Empty mixture out onto baking paper and cover with a second sheet

10) Get a rolling pin and roll mixture out to required thickness. Once done cut using a knife and place in fridge to set.

SIMPLE!

I recommend that you use USC Diet Whey as firstly it tastes great and comes in a variety of flavours (I strongly recommend Peanut Toffee)! Secondly, it contains many ingredients that are ideal for loosing weight. You can use any old protein powder, but USC is better and as it contains the following:



31g Protein
1g Fat
3g Carbs
Green Tea
ACAI Berry
CLA

Furthermore, a 907g bag of the stuff only costs £20, which will give you 23 servings! That is a bargain in itself. You can purchase yours at www.uscnutrition.com
