Recently I have been talking about how good Prograde Nutritions products are and I really just can’t quit talking about them.  Here at Ocala Karate & Fitness, we have been using Progrades products for about 6 months now and I can’t stress how good they all are.  Today I want to talk about the Cravers.

ProGrade Cravers

The people at Prograde have hit a home run with this little guy.  The Cravers are an awesome little hold me over or get me through snack bar that comes in several flavors.

My favorite is the peanut butter bar.  These mouth watering little treats have less than 200 calories per bar,  have 0 trans fat, and have NO PRESERVATIVES.

They satisfy you with 100% organic Dark chocolate and as I said before come in Peanut Butter (my choice) almond, and spirulina.

Check it out for yourself.

The Facts don't lie.

I was personally eating one of the cravers between my Karate classes to help get me through the evening until I got home to eat dinner.  I noticed the difference almost instantly when I got my cravers in and started eating them for that little pick me up and get me through the night snack.

I will caution you to be careful though.  They are so good you’ll catch yourself wanting more and more of them.  Check them out online at http://www.ocalakaratefitness.getprograde.com and set your account up online.

It’s fast, easy, and you can even set up an auto shipment every month so you don’t have to worry about running out.  And the best part about the auto shipment is that there is NO FREIGHT ! ! No shipping fees at all if you do this.  Now how can you beat that deal.

The Prograde team even offers discounts on package deals by combining different items.  I personally get the Superman Package.  VGF 25 multi vitamen, EFA Icon, Prograde Longevity, Prograde Lean meal supplement, and my favorite of all the Prograde Workout recovery shake.

I save over 60 dollars by ordering it this way in the Superman package.  One thing I will tell you is I have never felt better since starting on the Prograde Products.  Check them out for yourself and I promise you will feel a difference.

Don’t forgot about our New Self Defense Black Belt Program that is starting January 5th, 2010 at 7:00.  This is going to be the class that no one wants to miss out on.  Check out the teaser video at http://www.ocalaselfdefense.com and see for yourself why spots are already filling up!

Kicking Those Calories

    Well our Cardio Kickboxing classes are filling up fast now.  These super intense high calorie workouts are giving all of our members exactly what they are looking for.  50 minutes of fast paced hard core drills that are toning everyone up.  Everyone is talking about how good they feel and how happy they are to be back after summer.  From the opening 12 minutes of punching combinations to the last 40 minutes of cardio, the end result is putting a smile on every one’s face.  These fast paced workouts are exactly what everyone needs.  The key is to continuously keep the heart rate spiking up and down.  By actively engaging the large muscle groups and smaller muscle groups in the right sequence, our bodies naturally respond by elevating our metabolism.  This leads to a higher total calorie expenditure through out the rest of the day.  Even long after the work out is over, our bodies will continue to burn more calories than before.  This is due to the increase in lean muscle tissue.  Lean muscle tissue uses more calories.  So the more lean muscle tissue we can build, the more calories our bodies naturally burn.  Even at rest.  This is where these workouts really come into play.  Not only our we toning our bodies, but we’re training them to burn more calories just doing regular daily activities.  The end result is a leaner, toner, more defined body that will enable us to live longer and healthier lives.  Cardio fitness is one of the most important things we can do to protect our bodies from heart disease, diabetes, and so many other ailments that plague our bodies as we age.  So get on the floor with the rest of us on Mon, Wed, and Friday mornings, or Tuesday and Thursday evenings and start building your new body now.  All visitors are welcome to stop by and watch or even jump in and try a class.  So don’t wait any longer.  Come to class tomorrow and start getting all the benefits that are current members are already enjoying.  NO MORE EXCUSES.  It’s up to you to take charge in your life and start making a difference.  All you have to do now is show up.
