“Put on God’s whole armor [the armor of a heavy-armed soldier which God supplies], that you may be able successfully to stand up against [all] the strategies and the deceits of the devil” (Ephesians 6:11, AMPC).
The most important thing to do in spiritual warfare is to remain steadfast regarding the promises of God and all that Jesus has done for us. When the enemy attacks, we can’t rely on our own abilities; we must rely on Jesus.
Getting the right consumption of protein determines your
muscle mass, especially for those who are working out. There are many
circulating misconceptions when it comes to bodybuilding and people who
work out a lot in the gymnasium should be aware of them. This is why
taking the right protein supplements is vital for building the type of
body that you want.
So, in order to get started you should know how to get the right
supplement that is suitable for you. For example, you could find out how
whey protein really works and how it influences both bodybuilders and
thin persons.
Getting The Right Supplements
To get the ideal body that you’ve always dreamed of it is important
to take the right protein that fits with your need. When it comes to
getting the right protein intake, people would start talking about whey
protein -- one of the most popular and healthy choices for every fitness
person.
This protein supplement enables bodybuilders to build their muscle
and give them the ideal body they want. Other supplements that also
encourage the growth of muscle are gold standard whey protein and mass
depot.
How Whey Protein Works
The gold standard whey is worth every penny because it packs you with
24 grams of protein in a single serving to help supports your muscle
building needs right after every training. With highly healthy
ingredients, it helps you to pack more muscles efficiently and enables
you to gradually achieve the kind of body that you’ve always wanted.
The same goes to mass depot as it generates the growth of body muscles while repairing every tissue during your intense workout.
From Thin to Lean, to Muscular
For those who are thin but still want to look muscular it is the
right time to consume monster mass because it can help you to pack on
more weight, enabling you to achieve your ideal weight more easily.
However, bear in mind that the monster mass has a rather low carb to
protein ratio, and a rather high calorie. As it contains a lot of fat,
it is an effective supplement to thin people who wish to gain more
weight before getting to start on muscle building.
In a Nutshell
The three different types of supplements have different influences on
your body. While these supplements help to encourage muscle growth and
repair of tissues that tore during your intense training, bear in mind
that taking the right amount of protein is equally important.
Some of the best whey protein supplement companies, such as
Bodybuilding.com offers good and effective fitness
supplements for bodybuilders to achieve their bodybuilding dreams.
As each day passes, so does our age increase, and with
increasing age comes aging. Aging is an inevitable process, although it
comes with an overload of happiness, extra free time, infinite wisdom,
and financial gains (senior discounts and others), it can also have
downsides like wrinkling, decreased immunity thus susceptibility to
illness, and often loneliness. Although we can’t stop aging, what we can
do is make sure that we go through it the best way possible and we can
achieve this by aiming to stay healthy as we grow older.
Why should we strive to stay healthy as we grow older?
-To stay energetic and help control your wealth.
-To prevent some diseases and delay many health conditions that come
with aging like high blood pressure, osteoporosis, type 2 diabetes, and
certain cancers.
-To keep your muscles stronger so you can keep doing your day-to-day activities without becoming dependent on others.
How can we stay healthy as we grow older? By…
-By adopting a healthy diet.
-Working well to have a positive mindset and lifestyle.
-Exercising regularly.
-Get involved in activities in your neighborhood to help you stay proactive.
Adopting a healthy diet: you don’t have to change everything you eat
just because you’re getting older, you can replace some not so healthy
options with healthier alternatives eg replace all chocolate with dark
chocolate, replace ice cream with frozen yogurt, replace beer with
spirits or wine, replacing butter with margarine and others. Add fiber
to your diet because fiber reduces constipation, helps to lose weight,
reduces the risk of diabetes, heart disease, and colon cancer, and
lowers your blood cholesterol level. Try the Mediterranean diet which
promotes foods such as fish, fruits, vegetables, whole grains, and
beans. Drink more water, staying hydrated will give you more energy and
flush out toxins.
Working well to have a positive mindset and lifestyle: we can have a
positive mindset by focusing on the good things, practice gratitude by
keeping a gratitude journal(you can do this efficiently and easily by
downloading the Gratitude app on Apple), practicing positive self-talk,
spending time with positive people, opening ourselves up to humor,
treating ourselves to some self-care every day, identifying our areas of
negativity and tackle one area at a time and avoid spreading gossip.
Exercise regularly: Exercise 15 to 30 minutes daily or a few times a
week. Try a combination of aerobics ( walking, swimming), and strength
training with light weights, if you don’t like exercising, try other
activities like gardening, dancing, fishing, tai-chi, or yoga. Any
activity that you enjoy that’ll keep you in the right state of mind.
Exercise can also improve diseases like diabetes. A healthy diet and
exercise help feed your brain and improve your decision-making abilities
as you get older.
Get involved in activities in your neighborhood: There are many ways
to get involved in healthy aging activities in your neighborhood.
Volunteering is one of the most popular and easiest ways to get
involved. Volunteering can be done at a senior center, a hospital, or
even at home with a loved one. If you are not able to volunteer, there
are still plenty of other ways that you can get involved in healthy
aging activities in your neighborhood. For example, you could attend or
organize community events such as health fairs or fitness classes. You
could also take care of someone else’s pet while they visit the doctor
or help out with yard work for an elderly person nearby.
What if you’ve not been active for most of your life, do you think
it’s already too late for you to get started living healthy and even get
fit? No, it’s not, you can start your health and fitness journey at any
point in your life, regardless of your age. These are how to become
healthy and get fit(and stay fit) at any age,…
When you’re in your 30s, here you’re still close to your peak fitness
level, cardio is key here, get involved in 20-30 minutes of running, a
dance class, or hit the gym. Start slowly but push yourself daily, start
with 5 - 10 reps and keep increasing this regularly. Because you start
to lose bone mass in your 30’s, it is important to consume high calcium
foods such as broccoli, spinach, kale, almonds, yogurt, and cheese, and
incorporate omega 3s which have both short term benefits like improved
mood and cognition, and reduced inflammation, as well as long term
benefits like an improved mental and cardiovascular health.
When you’re in your 40s, due to hormonal fluctuation, your metabolism
starts to slow down as you head into menopause causing weight gain and
faster loss of muscle mass, thus here, you should do a lot of strength
training to help you build and retain your muscle mass, gradually work
up to using heavier dumbbells or adding more reps to your push-ups. Eat
foods rich in good carbs like whole grains, this will help you stay
energized all day, you can add some anti-aging food eg spinach, almonds,
broccoli, avocado, coconut oil, and olive oil to your nutrition list to
help your heart, brain, and skin stay healthy.
When you’re in your 50s, you’ll experience increasing bone loss,
especially in females due to menopause and decreased estrogen levels.
Low estrogen also facilitates weight gain. At this age, you should turn
to exercises that can keep you lean, strong, and safe. Adding yoga to
your routine will be amazing to keep you in a good state of mind while
keeping the extra pounds away. Here, it is important to eat meals that
contain several key nutrients daily and eat high protein foods eg beans
and lentils, eggs, tempeh, fish, lean meat, poultry, dairy products,
nuts, and seeds.
Conclusion:
Even though we cannot stop ourselves from aging, we can put effort to
make sure that we age in the best way possible. By following the tips
above, be assured that you’re going to age in the most amazing way there
is. Do you think there are other ways to ensure that you age amazingly?

“In conclusion, be strong in the Lord [be empowered through your union with Him]; draw your strength from Him [that strength which His boundless might provides]” (Ephesians 6:10, AMPC).
We’re empowered through our union with the Lord. We should take every opportunity to acknowledge His presence; when we engage in His presence, we’re strengthened in every way.
One of the priorities of a home dweller is the assurance of
ample security within the place of residence. This is why it is critical
to have the best home defense ammo available to achieve this goal.
It
is not a surprise that a major part of an effective budget is the
allocation of security expense.
The confidence is derived from the knowledge that all is secure and
safe within the home. The feeling of safety can be delivered by knowing
that you have the right ammo to protect yourself best and your loved
ones. It is, therefore, proper to seek and obtain the right personal
protection ammo in regards to the defense of one's self and property.
The choice criteria for personal protection are varied. Still, an
individual can rely on accredited and proven information to make the
best selection that will fit past experiences to best suit future
variables. For example, a new study conducted by the FBI reported that
the 9mm Luger Pistol model was the most effective among law enforcement
when you factor in the accuracy, round count, and penetration.
This could be a basis also for selecting the ideal option considering
the institution is credible and its conclusion comes from extensive
research. This, however, does not eliminate the consideration of other
effective defense options that may prove credible.
During picking the right selection of ammo, There exist several
variables to examine. The basic considerations in any situation are
specifics like bullet weight, gun type, and caliber. Matching the
perfect kind of ammo with the right firearm is paramount for effective
defense.
Many sellers in the market may not necessarily offer the best
services; therefore, enough research should be conducted to decide the
approved and commendable dealer. Information on the use of the ammo
comes with when you buy ammo but it is very wise to practice and even
seek a professional to aid in the goal of exercising care and due
diligence.
Various types of ammunition in the market finding one that you can
depend on to secures the ones you love can prove difficult. Once you
have gained a little knowledge and training, you should have more of an
idea of the type of home protection ammo that you would benefit most
from.
Control, weight, impact, and stopping power are all major factors in
choosing the best ammo. All that left is seeking out the right
manufacture for the best defense ammo.
Bulk Cheap Ammo is the ammo finder search engine to
find in-stock ammunition, guns, magazines, and reloading components at
competitive prices.
“Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? And [yet] not one of them is forgotten or uncared for in the presence of God” (Luke 12:6, AMPC).
Sparrows are very inexpensive birds. While people don’t value them much, God doesn’t forget even one of them. How much more does our heavenly Father remember us? We don’t have to worry; we’re far more precious to Him than many sparrows.
Throughout the season we will be sharing skills and drills that will help you keep practices fresh and your players technique advancing.
Offensive Line
Keeping the hips engaged is a critical skill for the offensive line to develop and it takes ongoing work on the fundamentals.
University of Findlay OC/OL Coach Korey Allen likes to use his “fight pressure drill” to teach this skill.Open gap in a combo scenario.
It is a drill that is applicable across every offensive line position. The idea for the lineman is to keep his hips - hold the line and get 2 steps in the ground. The drill has application in many schemes but Coach Allen points out that it is especially good for zone read teams. He shares the drill and his coaching points here(click on image for free drill video):
Running backs - Bulls Ball Drill for Blitz Pick-up
One drill that is both fun and challenging is what SEMO running backs coach Issac Read called “Bulls Ball” when he coached the running backs at the University of Buffalo last season.
The drill has its origins in the oldAmerican Gladiatorsseries where it was called “Power Ball.” The set up of the drill is simple. A trash can is placed behind the running back who is working his pass protection technique. The player opposite him has a ball and his objective as the rusher is to get past the running back and dunk the ball into the can.
The drill brings out the competitive side in both players and forces the blocker to use his footwork and hand placement to stop the rush and keep the rusher from dunking the ball in the can.
In a quick 5 minute period, you could set this up as a mini-tournament to determine who is the best blocker. You will get some good quality reps with a lot of energy from the competitive nature of the drill.
Here is a video of Coach Reed explaining and showing the drill on film (click on image for video):
Receivers
Jordan Hogan was the wide receiver’s coach at Cornell, but has since moved on to the NFL as an analyst. He utilizes the hoops that are typically used by the defensive line to work multiple drills including speed cuts, stack and release, and a drill which he calls running man which focuses on finishing with the ball.
Josh Eargle, TE coach at Memphis, likes to work his “bluff” drill to develop leverage and base against a C-gap defender and a linebacker. He utilizes a receiver chute to teach the tight end to sink his hips, lower his pad level and come to balance. He want tight hands on the linebacker. He explains it here:
Quarterbacks
Andrew Dresner, QB Coach at Maine, likes to theme his drills and his quarterbacks focus on each day of the week. He matches the drills they do on any particular day with what is happening in the big picture on offense. He explains his Tuesday Qb drills here:
There’s some great ideas here for every position. Hopefully these gave you some ideas to get your players better as you continue to the season.
“What shall we say then? Shall we continue in sin, that grace may abound? God forbid. How shall we, that are dead to sin, live any longer therein?” (Romans 6:1, 2).
We become new creatures in Christ at the point of salvation. As born-again Christians who are dead to sin, we have the Holy Spirit dwelling within us; He helps us overcome the temptation to sin.
Hopefully your team is finding success in the Red Zone. It can make a huge difference in any game.
The red zone requires some thoughts and adjustments on both sides of the ball. For the offense, vertical space is decreasing and causes them to adjust their route concepts. They look for formations and routes that help them get free of tight coverage. In the run game they look to add hats especially as a defense commits more to the run.
The defense must adjust and stay out of situations where the offense is picking off defenders and getting a receiver wide open. The defense needs to be able to react quickly and commit to stopping the run.
Both sides of the call must have a plan and execute if they want to win on this part of the field. Today we share three adjustments for each side of the ball.
OFFENSE ADJUSTMENTS:
#1 Adjustment to aggressive apex player on screen
Many teams like to use the fast motion of the RB into a swing screen to the perimeter because it is a great red zone play to get the RB the ball in space with blockers.
What can cause some trouble is the apex outside linebacker who aggressively runs through the block of the receiver and blows up the swing to the running back. Tim Zetts, who previously coached with Joe Moorhead and is now an offensive assistant with the Green Bay Packers, has a great answer to this.
He adjusts to this defensive action by having the receiver stalk and then work into the void in the defense. It’s an answer that can score in the red zone. He explains and illustrates the concept on video here:
#2 Adjustment to Zero High Safety
At some point as your offense nears the goal line, most defenses will jump into a zero high (straight man) defense. It makes it tougher because they send pressure and have tight coverage. In this video, Joe Gerbino, offensive coordinator at Utica College explains his favorite adjustment to this defense:
Keeping things simple for the quarterback, especially in the red zone, is critical to putting points on the board. Monmouth offensive coordinator TJ Dimuzio likes to utilize action off of their speed sweep to give his QB a touchdown to check down simple read. He explains it here:
DEFENSE ADJUSTMENTS:
#1 Cover 2 with technique variation and pressure
It creates a 2 deep-4 under look bringing 5 men in pressure. He likes this adjustment from the 12 yard line and in. The corners play fade to flat as Western Michigan defensive backs coach Marvin Clecidor explains in his “Moose” adjustment here:
#2 Adjustments to Condensed Splits
It is very common in the red zone for an offense to condense their splits in order to defeat tighter coverage. It creates space for routes to break into and it can create rubs which knock defenders off their receiver. Ole Miss defensive coordinator Chris Partridge likes to use bracket concepts against this and he explains it here:
#3 Sit Coverage tag
Hunter Hughes likes to implement a “Sit” tag to his coverages near the goal line to build a wall for his defense while playing match-up zone. The secondary makes these adjustments in their technique to stay square, jam, and carry a receiver to the next defender. He explains the tag in this video:
There are certainly ideas on both sides of the ball that were shared here that you should think about a plan for. Certainly, you will see these kinds of adjustments as the season progresses.
