ProWhey,
by MVP
Excellent source of protein, designed with precision.
Per portion ( the equivalent of one scoop),
the intake of protein is 20g versus 2.5 g of
carbohydrates.
Different flavors are available. We personally
prefer the Strawberry flavor.
Very good! You can mix it with juice or natural
fruits such as orange, banana and raspberry.
My formula for a minimum intake of sugars: Put
1/4 of water, 1/4 of juice or real fruits and
one scoop of protein. Blend until foamy and
drink. Delicious!

Gatorade®
Thirst Quencher
It is optimally formulated to replenish the
fluids you lose in sweat and to provide energy
to working muscles during exercise.
If you are doing any kind of aerobic exercise,
Gatorade is a great source of energy and hydrates
your body for a better sports performance.
The Gatorade six percent carbohydrate solution
allows you to rehydrate and re-energize fast
to enhance performance. After you drink Gatorade,
your body absorbs the fluid quickly. Research
shows that drinks with high carbohydrate levels
can slow down fluid absorption and, in turn,
put the brakes on total hydration.
Gatorade allows you to replace electrolytes
like sodium and potassium, which are important
minerals you lose when you sweat. Gatorade contains
just enough sodium to encourage drinking and
ensure rapid rehydration during exercise.
Water remains an excellent source of rehydration.
However, some fitness professionals say that
the amount of sugar that Gatorade gives is enough
to re-energize the body. Water provide better
rehydration in a strong sunny day while a person
is training. Your choice!

Biotonix:
Did you know that there is an efficient way
to evaluate your posture? Yes, it exists, I
evaluated mine using Biotonix's technology at
Energie Cardio last winter.
Three steps are required: Acquiring pictures,
Analysing posture, Corrective Exercises.
Acquiring pictures: 4 digital pictures are taken
and pictures are scanned and marker information
is sent via the web. Body alignment asymmetries
are represented by images of impacted muscle
groups.
Analysing
posture: They give you a complete bio mechanical
assessment identifying your postural deviations
and the center of gravity projection is generated.
Corrective Exercises: you have a 10-week period
of time for posture correction, you have exercises
for strengthening your weak points and flexibility
exercise program targets individualized body
alignment goals
Excellent to show your trainer before he/she
does your fitness program. Great for athletes,
post-pregnancy and much more!
Comes recommended by: Mario Lemieux, John Smoltz
and Walt Weiss.

Quaker Oatmeal, by Quaker
Prepared in a minute. Every morning, before you
start your day or go to the gym, take a cup of
Oatmeal it will energize you. A great way to jump-start
your day.
Oatmeal is rich in fibers, whole-grain food, contains
soluble fibers and helps reduce the cholesterol
(if you consume 60g per day, suggested by FDA)
and contribute to the reduction of heart attacks.
Helps maintain a normal level of blood pressure
and a healthy blood circulation.
Oatmeal packed in little packets comes in different
flavors. Although they taste great, we would suggest
you avoid them on account of the added sugars
and artificial flavors.
The amount of fat that you will find in the original
old fashioned oatmeal comes from the whole-grain
and is considered as a good fat for the heath
and for your body.
You can get Oatmeal from any convenience store
or supermarket like Maxi.
