Good day, I have a question regarding the Npower Nutrition Apparel, does Nicole offer hoodies or leggings or even long sleeve tops? I love the racerbacks I have bought and I love the T-shirt I bought when purchasing the stack for the challenge so I was just wondering if there were more clothing items to available?
Lastly I would like to say Thank You Nicole and to the folks who helped to create the Isolates. Prior to this challenge I only used Beverly International products but I love these products, super clean and no after taste. AND….I know this will sound a little strange but I was dying for coffee the other but the only way I drink coffee is with creamer, knowing I cant have the creamer, I mixed the Isolate Vanilla Cupcake shake (SOOOO GOOD) with 8oz of black coffee and it was absolutely amazing. It actually tasted like a French Vanilla and it was YUMMY. After the challenge I will be sticking with these products they work for me and so pleased with them. SO THANK YOU for the supplements you provide.Thank you so so much for the feedback 🙂 This makes me so happy!
As far as the clothing, eventually we will add more to the line, but for now we are going to stick with tanks and tees. I do have one 3/4 sleeve like Moe said.Awe- I am so sorry about your dog :/
Working out always helps my mindset when things like this happen. You are doing a great jobHi Drea,
I am so sorry you felt violated at the gym. That is awful.
There are really only a couple things you can do in this situation and you did both. Tell the manager of the gym so they keep a closer eye on him and/or confront him. I would avoid going to the gym the times he is there if that is possible. Hopefully he will back off now that you approached him.
Unfortunately, now-a-days people can take photos without people knowing all the time- it is kind of scary. The digital age allows for very little privacy in public. As long as you weren’t doing anything that you wouldn’t want posted anywhere- like picking your nose :p
Hopefully that made you smile a little. Don’t let this get you down too much 🙂 And hopefully he stops taking so many selfies- I always think it is a little weird when guys do that lolYou can add the hashtag to the previous post and it will pop up.
LOL *evil laugh* 😉
The weight you use may go down slightly, but keep trying to keep it up there. Don’t drop it before you start because you ‘think’ you won’t be able to do it. If your reps have to drop a little, that is ok!
Awesome!! I am so happy!!
You can always check Amazon too 😉
Awesome work!
Yep, it has to be public or we cannot see the posts.
Download ‘Interval timer’
LOL Nice work!!
I have tried at least 20 different types/brands over my 20+ years of working out and I have NEVER had one that tasted delicious AND didn’t upset my stomach or cause any kind of bloating. Nicole’s is amazing. Best stuff EVER!!!
Wow! Thank you so much!!
Great job!!! I am so happy you like the structure of this plan 🙂
The comments above are exactly what I would tell you as well. Love your body in all of its phases and focus only on what is in front of you. Reminding yourself why you wanted to do this in the beginning is something I encourage you to do often. One day at a time- you’ve got this!
I agree with Moe- If you have never used resistance bands in your workouts before, give them a shot. They can be very intense when used properly! They are also fairly inexpensive to add to your home gym (if you workout at home) and most gyms have them available.
Any of this cardio required to be done fasted? (I read NIcole didn’t want us doing fasted cardio in phase 1).
Are we still trying to break up weight training and cardio into two sessions per day if we can??
And last question …in phase 2 we now doing cardio on lower body days? As a pose to phase 1 when she didn’t want us doing cardio in leg day!
Rebecca’spost above has me questioning why she has S/S on day one and four! Shouldn’t that be interval days??
You can do fasted in phase 2. If you can break up weights and cardio- that would be ideal. She may have switched her weight training days to fit her schedule. I would recommend following the calendar as close as possible. It is written this way for a reason. There is no harm at all doing cardio on lower body days.
Ok just an FYI on the overview of the weekly workout plan that is on a full calendar spreadsheet it does show interval/SS cardio and also in the overview discription it states the wording
“ 2days of 40 Min interval “or” steady state cardio!”
So it is making it look like we are able to choose one or the other however SS doesn’t seem like it is suppose to be paired up with interval and or even be an option of SS during this phase ( just meant to be as an “addon” To HIIT days!
Is this correct??????You have the option between doing an interval or steady state (SS) on those days.
On HIIT days, you do the 30min HIIT and finish with 10min of SS.We are adding it to the site either today or tomorrow. Don’t worry! It will be there before phase 2 begins 🙂
I either put it in the fridge, or take the skin off and freeze it 🙂
Hey Rebecca, I would follow the meal plan as written. Phase 2 calories drop a little so if you are less active due to recovery from your surgery that will work just fine. Take the time you need- you have the rest of your life to workout 🙂
I hope surgery goes well!Hey there- I am so sorry you are having so much pain! Back injuries are the worst. Since phase 2 starts next week and the calories drop a little, I would follow through with the last week of phase 1 and then just follow phase 2 as written. You don’t want to decrease your calories so much you end up undereating. You will need the healthy food for recovery too! Get better fast!
Great job you guys!!! Keep up the good work!!
I added digestive enzymes to the product to prevent gassiness and bloating. It is super easy on the gut. 🙂
This is personal preference. Some people do not like to have any artificial sweeteners at all- I have no problem with it if it helps you get your water in.
