    NUXUSA #NuxLovesCrossFit Review

    I received the items from NuxUSA to review through my partnership with FitFluential, as always all thoughts and opinions are my own! I love workout gear. Being at the box 2x a day most days I practically live in it. When I was given the opportunity to try out some cute new activewear from NuxUSA I jumped at the chance. I shopped through their site for quite awhile and loved nearly everything. I have plenty of black capris so I decided to get the EOS Capri in Titanium. It is one of the items they had with an XL in stock, being a girl with a little extra junk in…

    Happy Hydration! EcoJarz Review & Giveaway

    It’s Weigh In Wednesday. and I weigh the exact same as I did last week: 190. Which is great, considering my weekend was like a non stop all you can eat buffet. but i’m not letting a no-loss week steal my thunder. I’m focusing on things I can do to make next week different. Like Hydration! When it comes to health and weight loss the one thing we hear constantly is how we should be drinking water.  But if we are honest, we usually don’t drink enough water despite the fact that we know we should. I find that I just simply forget. I needed something to help remind/motivate me…

    Bestowed Box Review & Giveaway

    When I told you guys this would be a fun week of giveaways I wasn’t lying! Yesterday’s Inner Strength Apparel Giveaway is still going on, so be sure to check it out! Today I’m going to share with you about a fun new subscription service called Bestowed Box. Bestowed Box was started by nationally recognized nutritionist and author Heather Bauer. There are tons of subscription services out there, but this one is different. Rather than just throw a bunch of stuff in a box and call it a day, each month Heather and her team of experts hand select different health product samples to include. The box is shipped right…

    Inner Strength Apparel Review and Giveaway

    This is going to be a fun week! I’ve got a whole slew of reviews and giveaways to share with you! Something about finding new fitness gear makes it so much easier for me to stay motivated. One of my favorite motivational tricks is buying new workout gear. If I’m in a slump and have a hard time wanting to workout usually buying new workout clothes gets me in the mood. There are tons of places out there to find cute shirts, but I’m a sucker for ones with CrossFit sayings on them. When I saw a post from Inner Strength Apparel come across my facebook page I knew I…

    Sport Journals WodBook Review & Giveaway

    I love when I get to share something cool with you guys! I have been looking for a way to keep track of all my workouts, of course I have the blog to look back on but sometimes I don’t remember to blog about it. I’ve used some apps, but then I realized it wasn’t backing up the information so if something happened to my phone. What would I do if I lost track of all my PRs and Max lifts? I started looking for a better solution when I stumbled upon SportJournals.com WodBook! They were nice enough to send me a copy to review. First of all, I love…

    BSN Syntha-6 & Amino X Review #energyigniter

    If I told you how much protein powder we have in our house at any given time you wouldn’t believe me. It’s unreal. A whole shelf in our pantry that used to be dedicated to breads/processed snacks has turned into a supplement shelf… which then got overcrowded and spilled over onto my nut butter shelf. Yes, I have a whole shelf in the pantry dedicated to nut butter… or at least I did until the supplements started to spill over onto it… oh the tragedy! A few weeks ago I was sent some items to review from BSN. To say I was excited is an understatement.  Can you guess why?…

    Omega Infusion Water

    Recently I was asked if I wanted to review a new product called Omega Infusion, a flavored water infused with 80g of Omega3’s. I was actually really excited to learn more about this product because Omega-3s are one of the supplements constantly talked about in the CrossFit world. I have a hard time remembering to take Fish Oil pills so having an alternative source of Omega-3’s is very appealing for me. Omega-3’s have tons of benefits: Reduce the risk of heart disease and stroke Help to reduce symptoms of hypertension, depression, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) Help in reducing joint pain and other rheumatoid problems Aid in the treatment of…

    GNC Orange Cream & Nature’s Bakery

    I know I posted about the Whole30 yesterday, and these items are NOT Whole30 compliant, but I tried them before I started and had this post scheduled for today!   Remember those orange Dreamsicles you used to eat all the time as a kid? Swirled with Orange and Cream… So good. Well, I was recently asked to review GNC Lean 25 Orange Cream Protein Powder and this stuff tastes JUST like that. I wasn’t sure how I would feel about such a unique flavor. I’m used to plain old chocolate and vanilla protein. This was a welcome change of pace! Yes, I HAD to use my orange blender bottle with my…
