Eat to Train
Looking to shed fat? One sure fire to get your body into
fat-burning mode is to Eat often! Yes, you read
right, eat often. It is important to follow a regular eating
schedule. 1st: It keeps your blood sugar stable instead of peaking
and crashing which can lead to overeating. 2nd: Regular meals will
speed up your metabolism by challenging it to keep processing
calories, rather than storing them in a game of feast and
famine.
So here's the game plan:
Breakfast, morning tea, lunch, afternoon tea, dinner, dessert.
Ensure protein in each meal--you can substitute morning and
afternoon tea with a yummy protein
shake!

LIFE AFTER RUGBY |
 Finding a new Direction in Life after
Rugby
Kori (Filipo) Laulusa was once riding the glory of a contracted
rugby player. As a young boy he stood out from the rest, earning a
place on a senior rugby club team at the tender age of 16.
From there his career boomed as he spread his wings to France
gaining a secure position on the French Libourne
Team. However, much to his dismay, this all came to a
screeching halt with a knee injury that wiped him completely out of
the game.
Kori returned home to Samoa, with wordly experience (being
mentored by elite rugby coaches), an injury and with his lovely and
supportive French wife by his side. He was quickly snatched up by
Nina Netzler von Reiche and now works alongside
her as an Xtreme Performance Trainer and takes the
Xtreme Challengers through their paces every
Wednesday morning at Apia park.
He entered his first ever Body Building Competition after training
with Nina for only three months and went straight to the top
winning the Gold medal for the u85kg division. He is ecstatic about
his achievements and the fact that body building training has
helped him rehabilitate his knee.
Today Kori is a sought after trainer and will soon be contracted
under Xtreme Performance to Aggie Greys Resort to train guests
requiring an exclusive personal training session and spa
treatment under Manaia Spa & Gym.
 Tahiti-bound at the
end of the month, Kori is off with team Samoa hunting for a Gold
Medal in the under 80kg Open men's division. Good Luck
Kori!!! Above: Kori posing

represent Samoa at the South Pacific Bodybuilding
Championships. The event was held at the STA Fale where
the day was breezy the sun was out, DJ Olga Keil was playing the
hits and the BBQ beef was delicious and healthy. For $10 you
could have a plate full of tasty BBQ Beef kindly donated by the
event's Major sponsor, Clean Island
Butchers. Refreshments included your choice of
chocolate, caramel or vanilla Balance brand Protein Shakes from
Xtreme Performance.
