Strong Bones
Strong Bones was used by martial artists to nourish the bones and to support the skeleton’s natural, constant healing. Athlete all need strong bones. This formulation specifically strengthens bone structure and research indicates the herbs in Strong Bones help in the constant “remodeling” of our bone tissue. It is a fundamental principle of the Chinese art of glowing health that “bones are controlled by the kidneys.” The “kidney” is defined in Chinese health care as the system of functions that control our adrenals, sexual functions, skeleton and related structural tissues, renal functions, our spine and one’s courage and ability to handle stress. The kidney is the primary storage vesicle in the body of a primal energy known in China as Jing. Jing determines the power of your life and your longevity potential. Strong Bones formula is a very powerful “kidney tonic” and “Jing tonic.” It strengthens many functions related to your kidneys and central to your life and longevity.
Frame Builder
Similar to Strong Bones, Frame Builder is designed to strengthen the bones, but also to strengthen the connective tissues. So it is often used by athletes to support their joints and bones. In the end, almost every serious athlete experiences structural issues - sometimes temporary, sometimes debilitating and sometimes disastrous. Obviously, some structural problems are career ending, leaving a once-formidable athlete hobbled for life. Athletes must focus some of the attention on developing strong bones, ligaments and tendons. These tissues are within the scope of tissues and organs we can largely control, and certainly can fortify. It is far better to nourish these all-important tissues on an ongoing basis than waiting until an injury or general failure occurs. Like Strong Bones, Frame Builder is a very potent formula “kidney tonic.” It strengthens all functions related to your kidneys and may be used a a primary Jing tonic to promote longevity.
Pycnogenol
Pycnogenol is a powerful antioxidant that improves microcirculation to the bones and joints.
Tao in a Bottle
If you never experience stress, you are not a great athlete. Athletics are a priori stressful. You play to win against competition who is also playing to win. There is often a great deal at stake. Tao in a Bottle is an adaptogenic formula that contains the wonderful nutraceutical L-theanine, an amino acid derived from green tea. L-theanine
Shaolin Inner Power eeTee in Jar
Shaolin inner power has a true double purpose: (1) it provides inner power, and (2) it is emotionally and psychically centering. Both effects are of extreme importance to a serious athlete. The Shaolin Temple was both the birthplace of gongfu (kung fu) and the birthplace of Zen meditation. That paradoxical dualism is also built into Shaolin Inner Power. Calm, controlled power – think about it.
Will Strengthener
The great athlete is a person of superior will. To succeed, you must will it to happen. Then your skill and training have a chance to carry you through the battle. The athlete of greater will will always triumph.
Kinetic Ginseng 30 Cap
Again, Korean Red Ginseng that has been fermented (pre-digested) and made into a powder is one of the great athletic herbs. Ginseng provides more than a physical boost and enhanced adaptability, it also nurtures will power.
The difference between exercise, fitness and a “sport” is that a sport is by definition competitive, which therefore calls for “winning.” Winning requires the full range of athletic attributes described here, plus a boost in mental focus, energy and coordination at exactly the right moments to assure winning. All else being equal, winners become better performers in crunch time. Typically this involves an explosion of will power, extreme focus, nerves of steel and a Zen state of mind (being in “the zone”).
We believe the following herbs help make “winners."
Will Strengthener
Kinetic Ginseng 30 Cap
Deer Antler Drops
Super Yang Jing Drops
Dragon Jing
Ant Power
Desert Cistanche Drops
Long Stalk Cistanche Drops Private Reserve
Here is an ancient story (poem) that sounds counterintuitive at first, but is 100% true:
The Need to Win
When an archer is shooting for nothing
He has all his skill.
If he shoots for a brass buckle
He is already nervous.
If he shoots for a prize of gold
He goes blind
Or sees two targets –
He is out of his mind!
His skill has not changed. But the prize
Divides him. He cares.
He thinks more of winning
Than of shooting –
And the need to win
Drains him of power.
Chuang Tzu
The Way of Chuang Tzu
400 BCE
Translated by Thomas Merton
In other words, keep your focus on your performance, not on winning. Winning is only a side-effect of near-perfect performance. There is no question, will power is all-important. A steady mind, absolute focus, and the ability to draw from your inner power at the appropriate times are the characteristics of the Way of Mastery and the Way of Winning.
