I will l be leaving Hood at the end of October. Most folks that hear this more or less want to know what might motivate the Crazy Aussie Sailor to branch out….?
What else is out there that could grab all the passion he has for boats and sailing….?
One word
Health (mine and others)
It is a long story but the short version is that I will be partners in a wellness and nutrition club in Middletown.
The products we use in our Club are excellent- It is very high quality nutrition. Short version is basically a nutrition shake as the core product with many other supporting products in the lineup. Net result is excellent nutrition, weight loss, maintenance or gain, as needed.
I have found the products to be excellent when on the road, pressed for time, too knackered to do anything about dinner after a long drive back from somewhere and orders of magnitude preferable to any fast food and most slow food too for that matter.
In terms of easy good nutrition for sailors, on the NEST race I used the shakes in 2 thermos jugs plus the hydrating drinks; I had them in the cockpit tail bags I would just slurp away on them during the 18 hours of the race and in addition to some bars they have too and after NO sleep, I felt great. Tired but just fine, no sugar rush (Snickers or Oreos) headache or coffee jitters or coffee mouth as is normal after an all-nighter…
I have been using the products for 18 months and signed up to be a distributor about a year ago and finely really committed to changing gigs about 6 weeks ago.
In this time I have lost about 15 lbs, about 4 inches of waist (so I am now down to a svelte 240 (yester day went under 240 for the first time in living memory…) from pushing a lumbering 260
I will be operating out of the Club on west main rd., opposite the Hess station/Staples. We are called “The Daily Shake” and we are on the east side of WMR, (you drive past us every time you go to NEB/Hinckley) in the small strip with the China Star Chinese, the Bike Shop, and the ever revolving Verizon shop. Until the end of October I will be here from 0800-1000, then after wards more, regular day time hours 3-4 days a week, particulars to come.
I invite you to come and visit us and see what is going on both in terms of really excellent nutrition in general and especially for sailing..
