The good nutrition is mostly a discipline matter

La buena nutrición es mayormente un asunto de disciplina

El fisicoculturista peruano José ‘el Churre’ Escobar nos responde las preguntas que siempre te hiciste a la hora de comer.     



    Mientras continúe el confinamiento en varios lugares o el acceso a instalaciones deportivas sea limitado, entrenar individualmente en casa o al aire libre serán las opciones más sseguras y saludables, especialmente si ya conocemos nuestra rutina y somos capaces de variarla según nuestras necesidades.

 


Pero, ¿y el aspecto nutritivo?Si el acceso a nuestro entrenador o nutricionista es nulo o limitado, estaremos verdaderamente perdidos. Recordemos que     estar en forma, sea para construir músculo o para bajar de peso, no radica únicamente en el ejercicio; lo que comemos también influye y mucho (además de cómo manejemos nuestro estrés y nuestras horas de descanso).


 

Lo primero que podría venir a tu cabeza es cuánto tienes que invertir en nutrición, y la respuesta suele ser mucho; pero el fisicoculturista profesional y entrenador José el Churre Escobar no piensa igual: “Comer saludable no es caro, a menos que seas alguien como yo”. El Masivo de Masivos sostiene que el secreto está en ser metódico: “Es cuestión de organizarse en todo”.


 


    Reflexionando en este detalle, pedimos a nuestros seguidores que le enviaran sus preguntas, y aquí hay una selección de ellas más las respuestas que el Hulk Peruano nos dio en exclusiva. José aclara que no es nutricionista y que lo compartido viene de su propia experiencia personal.

 


¿Es mejor comer antes o después de entrenar y al cuánto tiempo?

Así como para que tu carro eche a andar le pones combustible antes de partir, así también es preferible que comas una pequeña merienda al menos una hora antes de entrenar.


 

¿Qué deben comer quienes están la mayor parte del día sentados frente a una computadora y tienen poco tiempo para ejercitarse?

Antes de todo, habría que analizar si realmente te está faltando el tiempo, o hay un problema de organización en tus actividades diarias.


 

Entonces, ¿qué alimentos nunca deben faltar en la dieta?

Carbohidratos, proteínas, verduras, legumbres, frutas y grasas saludables, todo  complementado con agua.


 

¿En cuáles alimentos hallo grasas saludables?

Aceite de oliva, palta (aguacate), aceite de coco, nueces, pecanas, castañas, pistachos y maní (cacahuate).

 


¿existen alimentos que estimulen el crecimiento muscular de zonas específicas en el cuerpo?

No, no existen.


 

¿Cuándo debo comenzar a tomar suplementos?

Cuando hayas completado tu etapa de adaptación, que dura de 4 a 6 semanas. Si el entrenador te insiste para comenzar desde la primera semana, tiene que darte una buena razón para hacerlo. No ignoremos que muchos entrenadores suelen buscar un beneficio personal antes que deportivo.


 

¿Cómo debo combinar los suplementos con mis comidas?

¡Ojo! Los suplementos no suman a tus comidas.


 

¿Los suplementos reemplazan a las comidas, o viceversa?

Los suplementos se indican en un momento determinado según los objetivos que se quiera alcanzar, pero sin saltarse etapas. Solo será indicado por el entrenador o el nutricionista, según tus avances. Aquí todo depende de tu caso. Si por condición física o de salud necesitas bajar de peso con urgencia, hay una línea de reemplazadores de comidas dentro de las líneas de suplementos.


 

¿La comida de casa puede estimular mi crecimiento muscular?

¡Claro que sí!


 

Por supuesto que tú tienes más preguntas. Puedes enviárselas directamente a el Churre en su página de Facebook, nuestra cuenta en Twitter o a nuestro correo electrónico, chulucanasgym@gmail.com

I re-discovered the pleasure to look like good

Special to ChulucanasGym.




I worked out many years ago much motivated, strong, passionate. However, the motivation missed and I left the wonderful world of exercise. I accostumed the bad habits turned me into its slave.


So, it was when I decided to be normal. I ate out of my time or sometimes I didn’t eat neither, let’snot speaking about my bedtime, I went overnight daily. Fat never lacked, the terrible fast food. The alcohol never lacked in my ‘glorious’ normal life.


I woke up tired everyday, headache, sick. The gastritis was advancing as much as my great life advanced. I thought my body improved at a some moment itself. I was waiting for that ‘big miracle’ (in other words, immersing me into the mediocrity of something falls me down from the sky).


I was too sank into my normal life, what I was not hoping to leave out, because I enjoyed to disobey the needs of my body, I felt pleasure to know I would be “approved” by everybody. But upon a day, I decided to change by the invitation of my great friend David Saldarriaga Noel, who ever helps me to be better.


Everything was a challenge to me. From eating healthy to sleeping at my time due to insomnia, getting away the alcohol. Nothing was easy. However, I started to progress, I already felt no pain, I felt pleasure to see my progress, these little trials in context were what defined my advance (whether tiny or huge), I was proud of my changes. Later, I reminded the power of perseverance. I was becoming disciplined not thinking about, coming back to this wonderful world.


At the same time, I was tired because I never had done functional exercise, I was following up the routines everyday, until the Super Online Challenge event  happened, which I felt very comfortable because everyone looked for the same like me – a better physical as well as mental version, a life out of the normal, a life out of the stress, a life made fit to me.


The motivation shared in the group is unique. It feels that joint power that motivates you to follow “the extra mile.” They helped me to change my habits avoiding to be one of these normal people. That’s about to follow forward, whether few, whether regular. I’m advancing, it’s my goal line, they’re my dreams, I set it up well and I did not give up.  These are the results of not giving up!

Redescubrí el placer de verme bien

Especial para ChulucanasGym.



Hace años entrenaba con bastantes ganas, fuerza, pasión; sin embargo, la motivación se perdió y yo dejé el maravilloso mundo del ejercicio. Me acostumbré a que los malos hábitos me convirtieran en su esclavo.


Fue entonces cuando decidí ser normal. Comía fuera de mis horarios, o a veces ni comía, las horas de sueño ni hablar, me amanecía diariamente; las grasas nunca faltaban, la terrible comida rápida. El alcohol tampoco faltaba en mi ‘gloriosa’ vida normal.


Amanecía todos los días cansado, con dolor de cabeza, pesadez; la gastritis fue avanzando conforme mi ‘gran vida’ avanzaba. Pensaba que en algún momento mi cuerpo mejoraría por sí solo; estaba esperando ese ‘gran milagro’ (mejor dicho, sumergirme en la mediocridad de que algo me caiga del cielo) .


Estaba tan ahogado en mi vida normal, la que no estaba esperanzado en dejar, porque me encantaba desobedecer las necesidades de mi cuerpo, sentía placer con tal de saber que sería “aprobado” por el resto. Pero un día, decidí cambiar por invitación de mi gran amigo David Saldarriaga Noel, quien siempre me ayuda a ser mejor.


 Todo era un reto para mí. Desde comer sano, descansar a mis horas por el insomnio, despegarme del alcohol. Nada fue fácil. Sin embargo, comencé a progresar, ya no sentía dolor, sentía placer de ver mi progreso, fueron esos pequeños intentos en conjunto lo que definieron mi avance (fuese pequeño o grande), estaba orgulloso de mis  cambios; luego recordé el poder de la perseverancia. Sin saber estaba volviéndome disciplinado y regresando a este maravilloso mundo.


Al mismo tiempo estaba cansado porque nunca había hecho ejercicio funcional, estuve siguiendo las rutinas todos los días, hasta que se presentó el evento Super Online Challenge, en el que me sentí muy cómodo debido a que todos buscaban lo mismo que yo: una mejor versión tanto física como mental, una vida fuera de lo normal, una vida fuera de estrés, una vida hecha a mi medida.


La motivación compartida en el grupo es única, se siente ese poder en conjunto que siempre te da ganas de seguir “un poco más”; me ayudaron a cambiar de hábitos evitando ser una más de esas personas normales. De eso se trata seguir adelante, sea poco, sea regular. Estoy avanzando, es mi meta, son mis sueños, me lo planteé bien y no me rendí. ¡Éstos son los resultados de no rendirse!

A pro runner and his pupils reach goals amid the lockdown

Consuelo Yarlequé is 61 years old and until May 1st, 2020, she was 69 kilos or 152 pounds. It was not good news – she was type-1 obesity. That same day she started up a training & feeding plan. Three weeks later, during her evaluation, she noticed she has lost… 9 pounds! “I’m happy of the results,” the lady affirms. “Through all years of experience I’m running, I never had lost so much weight.”


Consuelo and other people in Piura, Chiclayo, Cajamarca, and Lima (Peru) have joined an online project called Entrenamiento Online elite (Online Elite Training, or EO as its acronyme in Spanish) powered by the marathon runner Jesús Ademir Sosa Valdiviezo, who is also a sports coach and promoter. There are plans for the initiative to expand to Spain.


The EO premise comes from the cloistering sensation and the stress provocated by the pandemic fact what many times impact on the body, and that does not bring benefits to health. The project looks for helping the people with the best online sports advisory, on live training, physical activity programs designed to provide relaxation, resistance, muscular power, and flexibility. It also provides an evaluation  for high-performance feeding and all tips you need to have a healthy life.


“Most people want to keep fit and have a healthy lifestyle, so I’ve created entrenamiento Online Elite interested to reach the folks who don’t go to a gym regularily, because they don’t have time or their daily jobs don’t allow to do a routine for keeping fit and also due to the gyms won’t open this year because they are the main Covid-19 infection hotspots,” Jesús Sosa sustained.


The reknown runner referred this has been a great opportunity: “This lockdown is very hard for everybody, however we also know  it’s a pretty good opportunity to grow, feel, dream of… To me, this crisis has been the opportunity to start up this project I was postponing so many times and the truth is that I’m very happy to contribute positively in the life of persons.”


“I want you to know of the physical activity importance as healthy habit for avoiding the sedentarism, and like an essential factor to fight the stress generated by the social isolating situation because of Covid-19,” he added.


How the Online elite Training works on
The live training is from Monday to Friday at 8:30 pm. (0130 GMT) on a Facebook private group. Sosa thinks it’s a comfortable time for everybody because someones study and others work, so the classes keep recorded and they can train later by watching the live webcasting at the time they prefer.


The athlete noticed that, for example, there are nurses during the online training, and sometimes they , when having an overnight turn, train the next day, but they don’t leave to complete their routine. And other guys who also study, if they struck on the schedule, train later the same way. The idea is not losing the continuity. All the pupuls are followed up by WhatsApp according to their goal, whether increasing muscular mass, decreasing fat index, or simply keeping healthy.


“I’d invite all the people who have the wish to start a healthy life to join this Online Elite Training project,” Jesús Sosa manifested. “Like a pro, I guarantee good results.” For more information, you can contact directly to Jesús Sosa, go to the Online Elite Training (in Spanish), or write him an e-mail.
