Ask The Trainer #3 - Meet Chad Shaw Part 3 - EFX Sports
Beginning to exercise again was EXTREMELY humbling… I barely had the strength to get out of a chair. Let alone workout. With as much pain as I was in and as weak as I felt, I had to force myself to begin doing some light exercise. Now when I say light, I mean light. As in 5-pound dumbbells light! As I began to gain some strength back, I was able to do just a little bit more every week. #healing #postsurgery #overcomeobstacles

Ask The Trainer #2 - Meet Chad Shaw Part 2 - EFX Sports
June 3rd, 2014 is a date I’ll NEVER forget… It was a Tuesday. I dropped to the floor in the most excruciating pain I’ve ever felt in my life. Minutes later, an ambulance rushed me to the hospital. And… shortly after I arrived, I went into emergency surgery for ‘Intestinal Torsion’ (or a twisted intestinal tract). #overcomeobstacles #trainer #bodybuildersreality

I have a question about workout cycling. I currently have the schedule of weight training (45-60 min) M, W, F and cardio (20-30 min) Tues and Thurs. I’ve noticed that when I reach a plateau after a couple of months, I can take a week off from the workout schedule and notice better results afterward. What would you recommend? #weightlifting #results #workout #training

QUESTION: Is there a recommended age for the Test Charge Kit? My 16-year old son is a baseball player and uses EFX products (pure whey, training ground protein 6, karbolyn, kre-alkalyn) and wanted me to order this but I don’t know exactly what this is for. It seems that it would be used for adults…or at least not a teenager. Leigh #testosterone #supplements #teenagers #sports

QUESTION: Hello I’ve been lifting on and off for a few years now and have experienced mild gains, but in the spring I tried to shed a lot of fat too quickly and lost most of my muscle gains. This year I am wanting to try and do it the right way by gradually losing fat while building muscle. What would be the best supplement stack for me?
