L-Carnitine has been used to help burn body fat for decades but no supplement company uses actual effective dosages to fully utilize this incredible substance.  MooreMuscle's MooreSkinny Fat Burner uses a full, effective dosage along with other even more powerful ingredients to create simply the greatest fat burner of all time.  Here is your education on L-Carnitine ...  

L-carnitine, also referred to as simply carnitine, is a nutrient that your body makes naturally from substances called amino acids. It also comes from a range of food sources and is available in a variety of supplemental forms. L-carnitine helps your body produce energy by burning fat.

Basics

Amino acids are the building blocks that your body uses to make its proteins. Through a natural internal process, your body also uses the amino acids lysine and methionine to make an internal supply of L-carnitine in your liver and kidneys. After it is formed, this nutrient accumulates in your skeletal muscles, brain and heart, as well as in male sperm. You also get dietary L-carnitine from foods such as beef, fish, poultry, pork, avocados, asparagus and milk and other dairy products. Supplemental L-carnitine is available in oral and intravenous forms, as well as in closely related forms called acetyl-L-carnitine and propionyl-L-carnitine.

Fat Burning

To get energy from the fats in your diet, your body must turn them into substances called fatty acids. Your heart and skeletal muscles, in particular, rely on fatty acid burning for the fuel that keeps them going. L-carnitine plays an essential role in this process by transporting fatty acids to structures in your cells called mitochondria, which perform the actual burning and produce energy. L-carnitine also removes potentially harmful waste products from the burning of fatty acid so they don't accumulate and cause cellular damage.

As you can see, L-Carnitine is an awesome ingredient to help your fat burning and MooreSkinny is your best place to utilize it!

Sleep Is a Basic Human Need

Sleep is a natural part of everybody's life, but many people know very little about how important it is, and some even try to get by with little sleep. Sleep is something our bodies need to do; it is not an option. Even though the exact reasons for sleep remain a mystery, we do know that during sleep many of the body's major organ and regulatory systems continue to work actively. Some parts of the brain actually increase their activity dramatically, and the body produces more of certain hormones.

Sleep, like diet and exercise, is important for our minds and bodies to function normally. In fact, sleep appears to be required for survival. Rats deprived of sleep die within two to three weeks, a time frame similar to death due to starvation.

An internal biological clock regulates the timing for sleep. It programs each person to feel sleepy during the nighttime hours and to be active during the daylight hours. Light is the cue that synchronizes the biological clock to the 24-hour cycle of day and night.

 

Problem Sleepiness Has Serious Consequences

Sleepiness due to chronic lack of adequate sleep is a big problem in the United States and affects many children as well as adults. Children and even adolescents need at least 9 hours of sleep each night to do their best. Most adults need approximately 8 hours of sleep each night.

When we get less sleep (even one hour less) than we need each night, we develop a "sleep debt." If the sleep debt becomes too great, it can lead to problem sleepiness – sleepiness that occurs when you should be awake and alert, that interferes with daily routine and activities, and reduces your ability to function. Even if you do not feel sleepy, the sleep debt can have a powerful negative effect on your daytime performance, thinking, and mood, and cause you to fall asleep at inappropriate and even dangerous times.

Problem sleepiness has serious consequences – it puts adolescents and adults at risk for drowsy driving or workplace accidents. In children, it increases the risk of accidents and injuries. In addition, lack of sleep can have a negative effect on children's performance in school, on the playground, in extracurricular activities, and in social relationships.

Inadequate sleep can cause decreases in:

    Performance
    Concentration
    Reaction Times
    Consolidation of Information Learning

Inadequate sleep can cause increases in:

    Memory Lapses
    Accidents and Injuries
    Behavior Problems
    Mood Problems

Signs of Sleep Disorders

A child who has not obtained adequate nighttime sleep is at high risk for symptoms of physical and/or mental impairment. The child may fall asleep in school, have difficulty concentrating in school and other activities, and/or exhibit behavioral problems. Some children who are sleepy become agitated rather than lethargic and may be misdiagnosed as hyperactive. Not getting enough sleep is one cause of problem sleepiness. Undiagnosed/untreated sleep disorders can also cause problem sleepiness. Children as well as adults can suffer from sleep disorders. Parents should talk to their pediatrician about a possible sleep disorder if their child has any of the following:

    Snoring
    Breathing Pauses During Sleep
    Problems with Sleeping at Night
    Difficulty Staying Awake During the Day

    Unexplained Decrease in Daytime Performance

 

In closing, strive for a scheduled sleep each night. Just like an infant, set a scheduled bedtime each day and do your best to stick to it. The more you can do this the more you will see improvements in your mind, body and everyday life.

In the great words of Stephen King, "The world has moved on ..." 

This is more true today than it has ever been.  The world has always evolved at a rapid rate but in the last 50 years the world has changed more than it has in the last 500 and by the time this blog post is finished it will have changed again.  In a world that we constantly struggle to keep up in it is easy to get lost in the unimportant and the tomorrow.  "The unimportant" is obviously completely individualized but then again, the individual concept of the unimportant is what this post is all about.

Each person has their own idea of priorities in their lives but sometimes we get so wrapped up in them and what we are planning for later or tomorrow, it takes an outside source to snap you back into reality and shed light on what we should actually hold as important.  We see it everyday - while we are at the grocery store, while we sit in traffic, while we wait in line at a coffee shop.  Each day in our routine tasks of "getting things done" we become so focused on the task at hand that we as a people or maybe as a society lose sight of enjoying the present.

... Enjoying the present instead of always focusing on tomorrow, what a thought!  We get so immersed in our list of "to do's" that the present is simply forgotten.  I challenge you to do something; next time you are riding in an elevator, instead of staring at the digital readout of the floor you are passing, turn around and look at the people behind you (who are undoubtably staring at those same mind numbing digits) and say "hello".  Ask how their day is going, compliment them on their hair, shake their hand and introduce yourself ... any of it, just try. I promise you that you will experience something brand new at that instant and once you get over the awkward nervousness of what you just did you will walk away from the situation with air under your feet and a smile on your face.  I don't really know the reason for this (I'm sure some psychiatrist reading this will be able to answer that) but for whatever reason it is, it's a great feeling.

Maybe if we could all spend just a minute in our day enjoying RIGHT NOW, then we wouldn't miss so much of this high speed world we live in.

Just because you're not vying for 20-inch biceps or thunderously strong thighs like the muscle heads in the gym doesn't mean you should shun the weight room. Lifting weights gives you an edge over belly fat, stress, heart disease, and cancer—and it's also the single most effective way to look hot in a bikini. Yet somehow women are still hesitant: Only about a fifth of females strength train two or more times a week.

Here are 12 reasons you shouldn't live another day without hitting the weights:

1. You'll lose 40 percent more fat.

If you think cardio is the key to blasting belly fat, keep reading: When Penn State researchers put dieters into three groups—no exercise, aerobic exercise only, or aerobic exercise and weight training—they all lost around 21 pounds, but the lifters shed six more pounds of fat than those who didn't pump iron. Why? The lifters' loss was almost pure fat; the others lost fat and muscle.

Other research on dieters who don't lift shows that, on average, 75 percent of their weight loss is from fat, while 25 percent is from muscle. Muscle loss may drop your scale weight, but it doesn't improve your reflection in the mirror and it makes you more likely to gain back the flab you lost. However, if you weight train as you diet, you'll protect your hard-earned muscle and burn more fat.

2. Your clothes will fit better.

Research shows that between the ages of 30 and 50, you'll likely lose 10 percent of your body's total muscle. Worse yet, it's likely to be replaced by fat over time, says a study. And that increases your waist size, because one pound of fat takes up 18 percent more space than one pound of muscle.

3. You'll burn more calories.

Lifting increases the number of calories you burn while your butt is parked on the couch. That's because after each strength workout, your muscles need energy to repair their fibers. In fact, researchers found that when people did a total-body workout with just three big-muscle moves, their metabolisms were raised for 39 hours afterward. They also burned a greater percentage of calories from fat compared with those who didn't lift.

Lifting gives you a better burn during exercise too: Doing a circuit of eight moves (which takes about eight minutes) can expend 159 to 231 calories. That's about what you'd burn if you ran at a 10-mile-per-hour pace for the same duration.

4. Your diet will improve.

Exercise helps your brain stick to a diet plan. University of Pittsburgh researchers studied 169 overweight adults and found that those who didn't follow a three-hours-a-week training regimen ate more than their allotted 1,500 calories a day. The reverse was also true— sneaking snacks sabotaged their workouts. The study authors say both diet and exercise likely remind you to stay on track, aiding your weight-loss goals.

5. You'll handle stress better.

Break a sweat in the weight room and you'll stay cool under pressure. Scientists determined that the fittest people exhibited lower levels of stress hormones than those who were the least fit. Another study found that after a stressful situation, the blood pressure levels of people with the most muscle returned to normal faster than the levels of those with the least muscle.

6. You'll be happier.

Yoga isn't the only Zen-inducing kind of exercise. Researchers found that people who performed three weight workouts a week for six months significantly improved their scores on measures of anger and overall mood.

7. You'll build stronger bones.

As you age, bone mass goes to pot, which increases your likelihood of one day suffering a debilitating fracture. The good news: A study found that 16 weeks of resistance training increased hip bone density and elevated blood levels of osteocalcin—a marker of bone growth—by 19 percent.

8. You'll get into shape faster.

The term cardio shouldn't describe only aerobic exercise: A study found that circuit training with weights raises your heart rate 15 beats per minute higher than if you ran at 60 to 70 percent of your max heart rate. This approach strengthens muscles and provides cardiovascular benefits similar to those of aerobic exercise— so you save time without sacrificing results.

9. Your heart will be healthier.

Researchers at the University of Michigan found that people who did three total-body weight workouts a week for two months decreased their diastolic blood pressure (the bottom number) by an average of eight points. That's enough to reduce the risk of a stroke by 40 percent and the chance of a heart attack by 15 percent.

10. You'll be way more productive.

Lifting could result in a raise (or at least a pat on the back from your boss). Researchers found that workers were 15 percent more productive on days they exercised compared with days they didn't. So on days you work out, you can (theoretically) finish in eight hours what would normally take nine hours and 12 minutes. Or you'd still work for nine hours but get more done, leaving you feeling less stressed and happier with your job—another perk reported on days workers exercised.

11. You'll live longer.

University of South Carolina researchers determined that total-body strength is linked to lower risks of death from cardiovascular disease and cancer. Similarly, other scientists found that being strong during middle age is associated with "exceptional survival," defined as living to the age of 85 without developing a major disease.

12. You'll be even smarter.

Muscles strengthen your body and mind: Brazilian researchers found that six months of resistance training enhanced lifters' cognitive function. In fact, the sweat sessions resulted in better short- and long-term memory, improved verbal reasoning, and a longer attention span.

10 TIPS for safe youth weight training:

•         Always have adult supervision in the weight room.
•         Do high reps with lower weight.
•         Balance your muscle groups.
•         Stretch after lifting.
•         Always have a spotter.
•         Make sure you are properly fitted when using machines.
•         Protect joints by limiting range of motion.
•         Combine weight training with cardio.
•         Avoid single lift strength moves.
•         Take joint pain seriously as it can indicate damage to a growth center. MS&F

MooreStrength is a supplement I designed specifically for the male physique.  It combines a Creatine Matrix exclusive to the MooreMuscle brand and a blend of natural, (clinically proven I might add) Testosterone boosters.  Did you know there is no product out on the market right now that actually combines Creatine and Testosterone boosters?  Wanna know why?  Well this is a guess, but probably because you can separate them into two products instead of one and make twice the money.  While that is very smart from the business side, it really doesn't help you the customer out too much financially does it?  Well not only did I combine them, I combined them and used a stronger chemical formula than the other guys do if they sell it separately!

 

Since we are a young company in terms of manufacturing, I wanted

our goal to be to produce strong products that keep our customers coming back for more.  We are growing from the manufacturing side and we don't have the billion dollar budgets of the other giants.  So instead of relying on heavy advertising and a mediocre product, we focus on moderate advertising, word of mouth and phenomenal products.

 

Here is something you probably already know; most athletes sponsored by supplements companies don't actually use their products!  Well ours do.  Every person you see in our Facebook pictures, expo set ups, TV infomercials, billboards and posters actually USE our products.  I recently signed Porn Star Samantha Saint to an endorsement deal for MooreSex because she actually uses the product!  How about one of our top Fitness Models Kym Morris?  She actually uses MooreSkinny and MooreHealth!  Melvin Alston, who is competing for his pro bodybuilding IFBB card in November really uses MooreSleep to give him the rest and recovery to grow!  I could go on and on but the point is, none of these people who rely on their physique to be top notch would use these products if they didn't actually work.

 

MooreStrength follows in those footsteps.  MooreStrength uses the maximum safe levels of our Creatine Matrix and Natural Testosterone blend to bring to you, the customer, the best strength supplement available.  Combined with a unique delivery system, MooreStrength is truly one of a kind.  As the title of this post said, "Change is coming".

 

I will announce the launch of MooreStrengh through Facebook, Twitter and our Blog very soon so look out for it and be one of the first to experience, pure, true strength.

 

Best,

 

Adam J Moore
