I always know it's going to be a great day when a new Bodybuilding.com order arrives at my doorstep! Currently, they are having a sale I just could not pass up: buy two Cellucor 2 lb protein powders, get 1 free. That means 6 pounds of protein for $60, when I usually get 5 lbs for that price if I'm lucky. PLUS I am the type of person who likes to try a little bit of everything (tapas or going out for sushi with friends who like to share is my perfect type of dinner). Now I can switch up the flavors when I want, and don't run the risk of getting sick of a delicious protein powder just because I am eating the same one every post-workout meal. Along with a box of White Chocolate Raspberry Quest Bars and my FREE shaker cup, I received 1 tub of Peanut Butter Marshmallow, Whipped Vanilla, and the new exclusive flavor (that was recently back ordered until February) COR-Fetti Cake Batter <3
Part II of VII
In this part of my Supplement Series posts I will talk all about protein powder. Specifically the benefits of whey protein, using protein powder if you are Paleo, when you should use it, brands of protein powder I recommend, and some recipes to incorporate protein powder into. Lets get started! Supplements for Olympic Lifters, CrossFitters, and To Augment Overall Health: Creatine Monohydrate9/1/2013 Part I of VII A very common question I am asked is what supplements I take for olympic weightlifting and in addition to my diet. With the tremendous amount of supplements on the market that employ tricky marketing techniques, such as before and after pictures, "secret ingredients" to get you swole, and convincing testimonials from celebrities, it can be confusing to walk into a GNC and know where to start. My goal for this seven part blog series is to keep things simple for you: Explain what supplements I take & why I take them. I will also try to include some supplements I chose NOT to take and common tricks used by companies to get you to waste your money on their products. |
