pre-workout | Stylish in Suburbia

What’s on my Mind:

Well, to start this post off, I reaaaaally don’t want to be back in reality: working 9-5, Monday to Friday, staring at the sun glaring down and knowing it’s 85 degrees outside and I could be laying on the beach, drink in hand, getting tan. Sigh.

But, there is an upside…..

What’s in my Mailbox:

I have so many awesome things to play with and test out when I get home from work! I came home to a huge pile of boxes, sample packages and magazines the other day, and here are some of the samples I got!

Animal Rage: It sounds so intense that I think it may provide the workout help I need! Created by Universal Nutrition, the two product samples I recieved are pre-workouts called Amp’d Up in Orange Juiced and Slaughter Melon… hehe get it!? It also comes in Apple Jacked, but that was not one of the samples in my pack.

Their belief is: “Energy. Focus. Intensity. Insanity. With each preworkout pack popped or powdered “shot” banged back, Animal Rage delivers the goods. Like an adrenaline shot to the heart, a current of raw power coursing through your veins, an ultra-concentrated dose of Animal Rage packs a knockout punch of energy, focus, performance and endurance ingredients. With minimal fillers and no unnecessary additives, Animal Rage is loaded with only the uncut raw actives, specifically combined for one express purpose—fueling the best workouts of your life. Get in touch with your Rage.”

Next up, Nature Box offered samples to their fans on Facebook in celebration of their success! They offered 1 free sample (out of 3 different ones to choose from) to everyone who Liked their page and signed up with their e-mail and shipping information. I chose the Salsa Spiced Nut Mix to try something new and different, and it was delicious! It encouraged me to sign up to recieve their usual monthly box.

What’s on my Agenda:

More blogging so I can get caught up, and then I get to see Kevin! Fingers crossed that the hot tub is on, because I need to RELAX!

So my JackedPack arrived and I was so pumped! (get it, get it!?) This was my first health/fitness box to arrive (out of BuluBox, KlutchClub and more) and so I wasn’t sure what to expect, but was hoping it would be products I could try out before/after my gym workouts this week.

I was so excited when I received the JackedPack box (it has clever packaging with little disclaimers and slogans) and so I cut it open and started to pick through the items to see which would attract my eye. 6 out of 7 items were sample packs, that only had 1 or maybe 2 uses in it, and then it had a full size item called Pastabilities (0 Carb, 10 Cal “Pasta” substitute by Quest Nutrition). The full-size item actually is an awesome idea/product and I’ve tried it before from other companies, so I’m sure this brand will be equally as good, as Quest Bars are delicious. I was hoping for a deluxe-sample of a pre-workout or post-workout, but I’m sure they have to mix it up each month.

Here are all the products I received, so I’ll let you judge for yourself:

PRE-WORKOUT: Black Powder Ultra by MRI

POST WORK-OUT RECOVERY: CellMass Advanced Strength by BSN

FAT BURNER: LIV by AE Nutrition

PRE-WORKOUT: Ritual by ANS

FAT BURNER: JetFuel Superburn by GAT

GENERAL HEALTH: Pastabilities by Quest Nutrition

POST-WORKOUT RECOVERY: Aminolytes by Beast Sports Nutrition

NOW, FOR THE VERDICT AND PROMO CODES….

For $14.50 per month, you definitely get some great samples to try out. I recommend it to anyone who wants a variety to try. Personally, I don’t think I will continue to subscribe to this basic pack, however they do have larger packs that I may check out, like the Custom or XXL Custom packs while the promo codes are still active!

Get your first JackedPack “Heavyweight” Box for FREE (normally $14.50, just pay small shipping fee) by using THIS LINK, a “Custom” Pack for only $10 (normally $29.50) by using code CUSTOMDEAL or 50% off their biggest pack using 50OFFXXL (normally $49.50)

WHAT’S INCLUDED IN EACH BOX: The “Heavyweight” is $14.50 per month for a package with 6-8 different product samples; the “Custom” is $29.50 (shipping included) per month for a package with one “trial size” item (7-14 servings) chosen based upon your specific needs plus 4-5 other sample, or the biggest one “The Custom XXL” includes 1 full-size product (25-40 servings) + 4-5 other product samples we think you’ll enjoy. The coolest part? They send you 2-3 samples of the full-size product for you to test out before you tear into the full-size in case you don’t like what you received. Don’t like the samples? No big deal. Keep the other samples and send back the full-size unopened to us for FREE with a prepaid shipping label and get credit for next month.
