Personal opinion: Take the spark right away before the gym, go to the gym, then come home and start worrying about breakfast. The first 3 days are the fiber drink, so do that when you get home, then do breakfast and carry on. I wouldn't worry about eating or taking anything but spark at 4am. Just start your day as normal…

I take it on my way to the gym and it really helps me stay focused and get moving for my workouts. My favorite is pink lemonade and mango strawberry personally :)

Eggs are a great option, omelettes, scrambled, hard boiled for salads, whatever you can do with them. 1-2 per meal would be ideal. Tofu is always a good replacement as well. How about a vegetarian chili? Just leave meat out, and make sure to use fresh tomatoes or no salt/no sugar added tomatoes and no salt added beans with…

So true. Love it, thank you!

Personally, when im in a pinch I use Advocare meal replacement shakes. they are 24g protein/24 g carbs with fiber that keep me full when I need a meal on the go.

I am a little off, but I do: 4:00 Wake up 5:00 Gym 6:30: Post workout Recovery shake 8:30-9: Breakfast 11:30- Lunch 2:00- Snack 5:30- Snack 8:00-Dinner 10:00- Bed It works for me to have two snacks between lunch/dinner, but it helps me to stretch dinner later and not be hungry at night!

When I trained for mine, I gave myself some extra time due to being nervous that things would come up, not wanting to rush it, etc. I did my 10 mile 2 weeks before my race then tapered to 6 miles the week before for my long run. I only did one short run per week the whole time as I was crosstraining with boot camp the…

I believe the one you are referring to is Amplify A.T. https://www.advocare.com/Microsite/Images/Store/Labels/W3031.pdf Hope that helps!

I haven't found a meal replacement bar that would fit into the suggestions, but for breakfast sometimes I used Larabars (the flavors without chocolate in them) as they are just usually nuts, dates, and other fruits. That was my quick grab option!

Here is the product page for it with all the ingredients listed on it. https://www.advocare.com/Microsite/Images/Store/Labels/A2095.pdf I use it, I love it, but that is me. It's up to any specific person what they are willing to use for added energy/benefits, and I chose the additional focus, taste, and energy that it…

Looks super yummy!

Finally got in..thanks! Here is my code if anyone in US needs in: 6GJHLKLMP

I had stalled for over a year eating 1200-1300 cals, upping cals to TDEE -20%, and others and had gotten nowhere. I did the challenged, dropped 4 lbs, and continued to lose using some of the products. I get that some people dont' believe in supplementation, and i KNOW there is no magic weight loss pill. But, it helped me…

No you dont have to do the Spark to do the 10 day cleanse. I did it, even without a soda/coffee problem myself, only because the lack of carbs (energy) caused me to crash during workouts. So, day 3 I gave in and ordered some. Its completely up to you, and it will not make or break the 10 day cleanse by any means.

In the cleanse I only had a complex carb with dinner most nights. For breakfast I stuck with egg whites and fruit or a fruit smoothie and salads with raw veggies for lunch. I found that to be successful for me. The first 3 days were the hardest, but by day 4 I didnt miss the carbs/dairy as much any more. Then by day 11 you…

It's been a while, but I was in your boat as well when I started strength training a few years ago. How I worked towards it was doing planks for as long as I could, 4 sets, every day from my hands. Then, try laying on the ground flat on your stomach, squeeze your core and glutes tight, and push up from the floor into a…

bump! sounds awesome

I love Advocare Chocolate Mocha with some almond milk when I am needing a quick breakfast or something on the go. It keeps me from grabbing fast food or something far less healthy for me!

sounds awesome- thanks!

I use it, love it. It has helped me ditch coffee, soda, and other energy drinks with no problem. I use it before a run or workout for an extra boost, or if I just need a little energy. I have some extra sample packs if you want to try it, send me a message and I'll mail you one.

If your advisor doesn't give you any ideas, send me a message and I can send you over what I give to people regarding foods/shopping lists and suggestions.

I have been working with them for 2 years, I LOVE them. Its a great way to get in some weight training when you don't feel like hitting up the weight room. They have made me stronger and better at everything else, especially running..which I didn't expect. Plus, they are just fun. But make sure to get proper training on…

Bring Wet towels in ziploc baggies to wipe off your hands, ears, face and all that when you are done. The lines for water spray were usually super long and SUPER COLD water. Wear clothes that are tighter fitting, as when you get mudded down, if your shorts are loose....you might be giving someone a show. Just a few tips :)

I have heard people in my bootcamp class use both of these and been happy with them. I personally have not used them, so I have no input myself. http://shop.nuun.com/nuun-active-hydration http://www.advocare.com/products/active/A2412.aspx

Personal opinion, not professional by any means. If you are DL 60lb, the 10 lb might not even give you a challenge. I typically use a 50lb bell for lower body work and 25-35 for upper body, depending. You could start with it for Turkish Get ups or half get ups perhaps, if you haven't done those before...but unless it was…

I am no expert by any means, but I have been training with kettlebells with a certified kettlebell trainer for about 2 years. Those are pretty basic moves, although you may struggle with the single leg deadlift, suitcase carry, and OH press at first (first two just because balance is tricky, and the OH press is hard for me…

When I was in Japan for 10 days I didnt gain a pound...and I ate the local food like a champ. Advice- avoid anything covered in sauces or fried (which are the obvious to spot) and the heavy noodle type dishes. Stick with lean meats as much as you can (although if its anything like Japan you will have NO clue what you are…

I have been training with kettlebells in group fitness classes for about 2 years. Im 5'7" and 140 lbs. On average, I am dripping in sweat, kinda want to die a little, and burn anywhere from 275-400 according to my HRM in a 45 minute class. So yes, be careful on using that 20/minute average, as unless you are doing 45…

VS Yoga line- have many different cuts. I swear by them.
