NEW FLAVORS

NEW FLAVORS!!! I can not wait to make pancakes and waffles with these flavors…..

can you even imagine?!?

What I love about Cellucor Whey compared to others, is the good ol' nutrition facts!!

-CALORIES- 120
-TOTAL FAT- 1.5g
-TOTAL CARBS- 3g
-SUGARS- 1g
-PROTEIN- 25g

I'm going to go ahead and say you drink protein drinks for the protein right???  I hate when I see a protein powder out there and it has very little protein in it…. 15g and under is too low for me and when the carbs are high it steers me away too.  I would rather eat my delicious carbs!  I love that Cellucor allows me to add in carbs on the side to meet my needs.  I love to put berries, bananas, spinach etc… in my shakes.  And you all know I love pancakes and waffles made with this stuff so it allows me to have oats for the baking.  Oats are not the lowest carb source.  So the protein powder with my carbs of choice really fills me up the right way.  Then sugar…. it would be nice to have zero grams of sugar in all foods especially protein powder.  When I see a powder with more than 3g I choose otherwise.  Cellucor nails it… 1 Gram of sugar is pretty amazing!  Then there is the flavors.  Cellucor does an amazing job when it comes to the flavors of their products!  They pretty much nail it on the head.  The best part is the taste of their whey.  It doesn't leave a chalky flavor or taste like your typical protein shake.  They can get pretty thick and frothy depending on the extras you add.  The best I have had!

Take Care of Yourself

AND……..not only that, six months later, the people that participated in exercise were less likely to to relapse because they had a higher sense of self-accomplishment and self-worth!!

Sounds pretty fabulous to me.

Taking care of your body is critical to being the happiest person you can be.  Working out is one of THE best medicines for depression and the side effects are all positive.  Don't we wish some doctors would prescribe exercise?!  Working out can be done sitting in a chair or as simple as taking a walk to lift our moods.  Exercise is all up to the persons needs and levels.  Exercise is exercise.

 Lets take this Monday and run with it.  Go workout, be happy and do it again tomorrow. 

Treadmill Saturday

On Saturdays I am up for whatever type of get me moving and make me sweat workout I can get.  It's my day off from weights and strenuous things but I still like to get in something active to start my day.  Normally this time of year we can get outside and go for beautiful runs up Provo Canyon.  But today it is crappy weather outside and raining which brings us for another indoor workout.  

I have never minded the treadmill.  Actually I really enjoy treadmill running.  I DO NOT like to steady run on that thing EVER!  I like to mix things up with my speeds and inclines to keep me entertained and it pushes me harder.  Here is the workout I did today!

I don't need easy, I just need POSSIBLE!

HIIT HIIT HIIT

HIIT TIP- they are short and to the point.  The point being you should to be able to talk to your neighbor easily while you do HIIT.  You should feel DONE. TIRED. FATIGUE at the end of it.  But you can do it- Remember HIIT is short and goes by fast.  It is not meant to be long in duration so go as hard as you can cause it will be over before you know it.

For this HIIT, challenge your speeds.  On that 60 second power walk do not hold on.  Pump those arms!

While you are resting, adjust the treadmill speed/incline where it needs to be so it's ready to go at that minute mark.  I try and do this type of cardio AFTER I lift weights.  Weights BEFORE cardio, ALWAYS!

GET OUT OF YOUR COMFORT ZONE!

Never. Skip. Breakfast. EVER!!!

Breakfast should be your biggest meal of the day.  Doing so will help you skip the late in the day snacking.  This breakfast always keeps me satisfied and full.  It contains all the good stuff: 

PROTEIN/ CARBS/ FATS

(the only thing missing would be a veggie)

-1/2-1 C. Oats

-1 whole egg

-2 egg whites

-1 TBS chia seeds

-1/2 scoop protein powder ( I use Cellucor)

-dash of cinnamon
