Shawn Burke of Post Falls, Idaho has added ASEA to his training regimen for the last five months. He is the real deal, a 51 year-old Ironman triathlete who, for the first time in over a decade, is enjoying all the rewards of is life-style and none of the pain. Shawn has been training and racing for more than 25 years, but this has been one of the best years of his life! He has qualified for two separate national events, raced an Ironman and a Half Ironman in a single season, completed a half marathon with his personal best time, and come in first place in his age group at three separate events.
All of his hard work is not without its trials, first and foremost being long recovery times. Shawn believes that ASEA has made that a thing of the past. He participated in the Ironman Coeur d’Alene and finished almost an hour faster than his previous time. This Ironman race included a 2.4 mile swim, 112 mile bike ride, and a 262. mile run! Walking away he felt amazing, with no need for his usual post-race massage. Shawn was “back to work 48 hours later and back to training within 72… all with no soreness!” What a benefit for such an active athlete.
Shawn has remained injury-free and healthy for the entire season, “a first for my racing career.” Along with these other benefits he has found that he is sleeping better than he has in a decade. ASEA has lifted Shawn to new heights. “My Training is no longer being controlled by the fatigue and soreness of my body. I am now able to train by the determination of my mind. This is a whole new level of training for me.”
