It’s that time of year again. You’re ready to change your ways, turn over a new leaf, and actually conquer your resolutions — yeah, never mind all that. You’ve jumped on the scales and you’re wondering how that extra zero got there, the buttons are popping off your favorite jeans you’ve got new cheek folds in those photos that you’ve just been tagged in from the annual work party do! Getting back on track for Summer is not all that daunting!
Where to begin? LAB TESTS DIRECT is a new Aussie owned product and service enabling you to take tests from the comfort of your own home. Your fitness and training plan is taken to a granule level allowing you to identify specific genes that can tell you your capacity / ability to build muscle, how fast you recover from repetitive strain, your range of motion and ligament strength and how your body processes different food. If you’re a serial dieter or fitness freak and you seem to keep coming across the same roadblocks in your progress and can’t figure out why, maybe it’s time to take the test?
Simply send in your swab samples from the home testing kit you order and access a full DNA Profile analyzing genetic markers that equip you with the knowledge you need to optimize your training regimen or take the Food Sensitivity and Adrenal Fatigue Tests.

Ease into it, why put your body through the shock? We’ve found the perfect tool called WAVEBLADE that’s all about preventative injury and offers relief to your post training recover.
It works on a simple premise: RELEASE (tight muscles and fascia), MOVE (enhance functional mobility), IMPROVE (training, performance and recovery time) .

Easy Treats & Health Boosts: Molecular technologies have greatly advanced our understanding of the complexity and diversity of gut (healthor) microbial communities in individuals. New bodies of research are rippling through the fitness industry on the topic. Diet, particularly macronutrients, play a major role in shaping the composition of these complex populations. Though long term effects of a high protein diet or high fat diet are less well defined, we do know your gut health composition is altered when making such extreme changes to your food intake. This can affect the way you absorb nutrients, digest fibre, affect post training recovery and the strength of your immune system. This in turn can predispose or trigger genetic or environmental influenced health conditions. SET THE BAR has created a range of healthy snacks based on such research. Their EnerGi bars are designed to replenish the probiotics imbalance from excessive changes to diet, are low GI, protecting you from sudden spikes in your glucose and improving digestion, providing a low carb alternative and prevent diabetes among other benefits.

Supplementing your training: How does one begin to navigated the modern day complexity of whey, soy, egg, milk, pea and hemp proteins? What is good for you? We suggest why for muscle building, something without BCAAs (branched chain amino acids) for weight loss. Vegetarian, vegan, diabetes, kidney disease and gastrointestinal conditions would warrant non-milk, no-added sugar, low-range protein content and lactose sugar / sweetener or gluten based proteins respectively would generally be the right choice. SUPPLEMENT WAREHOUSE delivers nationally and offers a price match guarantee.
You may not know this, but many modern beauty serums incorporate the key ingredients in Peptides due to the anti-wrinkle effects on the skin. So what are they? Essentially they’re modulators comprised of 50 amino acids and when injected, trigger the Pituitary Gland to release human growth hormones (HGH) in the body. It boosts protein production, increases your insulin-like-growth-factor which is paramount in lean muscle production and promotes the utilisation of fat for energy. That’s the very simplified explanation, PEPTIDES ONLINE offers an easy online consultation with a Doctor and prescription service. It’s critical to consider any current health conditions you might already have to ensure the right balance and dosage is the most effective for you.
