GNC Live Well Now

December 21, 2011 | Uncategorized

 

Good morning! Today I want to tell you a little bit about some products GNC was gracious enough to let me try out. I love GNC, so I was excited when I saw a box on my porch containing some goodies to try out.

I thought I would do a fun vlog of my experience instead of just typing it all out, so here is my review:

So, to recap, GNC sent me some products to review:

One More Rep pre workout powder: good flavor, gave me energy, would try again.

Slimquick Fat Burner: Thought I was going to die from taking these pills since I didn’t read the warning label. No side effects, but weight loss pills just aren’t my thing.

Lean Shake in Swiss Chocolate: YUM! Very good flavor and consistency, would definitely use again to throw in the rotation with my other smoothies and protein drinks. Full of vitamins, comes in 3 flavors.

aaannddd just like last time, I have a blooper video. Bella just kept trying to steal the show from the second I started recording!

*FitFluential LLC compensated me for this sponsored post. All thoughts and opinions are my own.

QOTD: Do you like GNC? Do you use shakes of any kind in your diet?

    YOUR dogs are nuts. It does not shock me in the least that she was trying to be the center of attention.

    haha! Dogs provide so much humor to life, so thanks for sharing the “blooper” video of yours! I’m not much into weight loss pills either…

    I may have to try that shake. I usually try to incorporate a protein shake as a snack during the day.
    And Bella is hilarious! The outtakes are great!

    I am pretty sure Bella was looking for her Santa outfit. By the way, one of my cats is named “Bella.” Don’t tell your dog. She’ll want to drown her sorrows in GNC protein powder – straight up, no liquid.

    I was actually just looking at that protein shake a few days ago. I’ve never had regular whey protein because I am worried about how my tummy will react. Also, I just laughed really loudly at Bella growling at the camera and now my coworkers are starting. 🙂

      the shake is great if you love chocolate!

We originally got it as a solution for rainy or co We originally got it as a solution for rainy or cold days during the holidays, but it quickly became part of our weekly routine — especially for family game night or those super hot afternoons when going outside just isn’t an option.

What I love most? It gets us laughing, playing, and moving together. The games are active and designed with real child development principles in mind — which means I feel good about the screen time. And when she plays solo? I know she’s safe — no online strangers, just fun, movement, and confidence-building play.

Whether we’re all competing or she’s playing on her own, @nexplayground has become one of our favorite ways to stay active and connected as a family.
