Promax crisp bars are awesome!

So do you snack in between meals? .....Well you should to keep your metabolism up. The part I find hard is what do I snack on when I am at work or out an about. I am too busy to prepare anything, so I end up sometimes being bad and grabbing a bag or Quavers or a milky way!

I used to think that Quavers and Milky Way bars were a good choice of 'bad snack' as they are low calories. I have now learnt that 50% of those calories are 'Fat Calories' which the body stores and does not use! They raise your sugar levels, but are quickly followed by a low, which is a pointless snack.

To loose weight and tone up, you need to snack on light protein like cottage cheese, boiled egg, soya yogurt. It's hard to carry these around with you, so I am now so pleased that I have Promax Crisp bars to pop in my bag. They are only 84 calories and high in light protein.









I ordered mine online by the bulk after I tried one of my friends. Buy 3 boxes get the 4th free is the offer on at the moment, me and my friend went halves and got 2 boxes each. I find them quite yummy, and it seems to keep me full till my next meal.

You don't need to be following the Promax diet to have these snack bars, but I do for fast results. I ve now lost another 5lb this week and I look slimmer and toned around my middle. I am going to measure myself this weekend to see how much inch loss I now have!




Maximuscle say:
These delicious protein-rich crisp bars are small in size but big on nutrition and massive on taste. Light and easy to eat, Promax Crisp Bars are low in calories, carbohydrate and fat. This makes them perfect for anyone on a low-carb or low fat diet. More exciting still, each bar is smothered in a delicious layer of smooth dark chocolate, letting you satisfy your chocolate cravings without feeling guilty! Enriched with fibre and high- quality whey protein, Promax Crisp Bars will also make it easier for you to control your appetite.
If you feel hungry when you leave the house in the morning because you're too busy to eat breakfast... if you're too busy to eat a healthy diet... if you're always snacking on cakes and biscuits... then Promax Crisp Bars are for you!


How should I use it?
Some like to start their day with a Promax Crisp Bars. You can also use it as a mid-morning or mid-afternoon snack, as an easy way to boost the protein content of a meal, or to give your muscles an extra hit of protein before you go to bed.

Ministry of sound music and pump it up dvds

I just got the 2 above ablums from Minstry of Sound. I ve not bought myself any cd in ages, and thought that I deserve a treat after working out so hard!

I like the Anthems II album to listen to on my ipod while working out, it has some great classics and the songs bring back good memories. I ve now also got the CD in the car, it is a 3 disc album, so you cant get bored with it. I give this album 10/10

The Chilled album I like to play when I am in the bath to relax to and when I meditate. Some of the tracks I have on my ipod workout playlists, for a cool down. 9/10





I got both CDs together with a free tin of Ministry of Sound 'Chill Pills' (basically mints in a MOS tin) all for £15 free p & p. Now I ve noticed there is an even better offer 3 albums for £20 and free p & p! My CDs arrived the following day and packaged well. The MOS site has excellent offers on CDs, the cheapest I ve ever seen as I normally buy from play.com or amazon. I think I will buy all my workout music from MOS from now on. There are some priced at £10 for 2 double/triple albums.

Another tip for choosing workout music, look for the FF (fitness friendly) sign on the album. This indicates that the whole albums tempo and beats are good for exercise to. My fitness instructor told me this, and i ve since noticed on a few of my MOS albums that it has this sign on the back.





Pump It Up Dvds

I own all the Pump It Up Dvds, I got addicted from when the very first one was released after the 'Call on me' video. I met the girls from the first 2 dvds at the Vitaliy Show and Fitness Expo in London where they were promoting the dvds. The girls did live demos and it inspired me at the time to get fit and toned again, those girls had fab bodies and I just wanted to look like them!
If your looking for a home fitness DVD this range is so much fun, and for only £6.99 each and free delivery from the below website, its excellent value for money!
