Trying New Beachbody Supplements
I decided it was time to try some new kinds of supplements from Beachbody. My girlfriend and I have gone through two rounds of the Shakeology meal replacements. They were pretty good but I was looking for more of a after workout drink and some other things. I logged into my Team Beachbody account and went shopping.
The three things that I bought were a tub of Vanilla Whey Protein, Joint Support Formula, and the Strength Muscle Mens Formula all of which can be found in the Beachbody Store. I decided on those because we usually make smoothies every couple of days and the Protein is a good ingredient. The Joint Support Formula is for me. My knees and ankles are not so good but especially my knees. From all of the running, skiing, and snowboarding I do my knee is starting to get that stretchy grinding sound when I extend it. Not good. The Strength formula is for after workouts. The P90X recovery drink is very good but I was looking to try something new and its about $20 cheaper. With the 25% discount I get from being a Beachbody Coach I was able to save $22. Not bad.
In the two weeks that I have bought these products I am noticing the biggest difference from the Joint Support Formula. My knees, shoulders, etc. feel a bit more loose and there have not been as many sounds coming from my body when something rotates. The Strength Formula gave me quite a rush of energy after the couple P90X workouts I have done and most noticeably during my softball game. I worked out a couple hours before my game, took the stuff, and it carried me threw the game. It might be a little early to evaluate the Whey Protein but I can say that it does taste very good.
