Protein Bars

We do like to travel, but when we do, I usually pack our breakfasts in the yeti, we eat some trail mix or a protein bar for lunch, and then for dinner we will eat out.

I then always take EHPlabs protein shake after my workouts and creatine. I keep protein, different singlets, belts, wrist wraps, headphones, protein bars in my gym bag.

When it comes to social events or gatherings, I simply bring a protein bar with me or just indulge on one unhealthy snack there, I know it’s not going to kill me especially if it’s one night out!

My favourite exercises include cardio dance, barre, cyclefit, aerobics, yoga, and intense core workouts. Drinking a lot of water during a workout is essential, as well as eating a protein bar or adding my favourite protein powder Six Star Pro Nutrition Whey Protein. All I need is my towel, water, my best running shoes, and some good tunes to get my workout going.

Sometimes I also eat protein bars if i don’t have enough time to cook but I know it is not so good.

In my sports bag, I carry my sports outfit for the session with gloves, shorts and a t-shirt, compression tights, as well as running shoes, a jump rope, a protein shaker, a booster and a protein bar that I’ll take at the end of my session.

Whey protein is an amazing source for convenience! Protein bars, snacks while travelling can help us.

I use supplements such as protein powder and omega-3, I buy them on Prozis and i’m pretty much happy of their quality; on this website I buy many other products and healthy food, such as lean protein burgers, rolled oats, protein bars, peanut butter (which is my favourite product!) and many others.

In my gym bag: Lifting straps, a belt, knee bands, change of clothes (usually work attire), protein bars, water bottle (with creatine), towel.

I usually eat a protein bar instead of a candy bar. I try to stay lean year-round. I always make sure my meals are prepped daily and that I bring my gallon water jug with me wherever I go. I try to time my meals so my blood sugar levels don’t drop.

I do about 3 to 4 meals a day and snack a bit during the afternoon or mid-morning. My supplement sponsor Prozis has great options, anywhere from protein muffins to smoothies or protein bars.

And yes, when I travel I can stay even the whole day without food, so I make sure my protein bars and sups are there to save me. I just don’t like junk food.

Off-season I always aim to stay clean, but I eat more fitness food like protein bars, protein ice creams and luckily more basmati rice and oats 🙂

The easiest way to prevent cravings is to never have anything to eat at home. However, I typically keep generic brand no-carb protein bars to snack on, which are tasty enough to satisfy cravings but filling enough to prevent me from doing more than one.

For supplements, I take preworkout and whey isolate protein powder, I also eat a lot of protein bars for meal replacements.

I prefer the paleo diet because it’s effective and old school. It focuses on whole foods with a higher protein intake, which helps with cravings. I’d have fruits, a protein bar or healthy fats like nuts when I have cravings. They help big time.

I consume between 1800-2200 calories depending on what I am training that day. I have been able to manage my insulin better and hence don’t have hunger pangs. I love eggs in every form and just can’t get enough of it. I consume different kinds of protein bars (I go for the low sugar and no or low carb ones)

I generally have backup meals like vegan protein bars (PhD Smart Plant Protein Bars and No Cow Bars), nuts and rice cakes in case we got stuck somewhere or flights are delayed. Especially in contest preparation, I prepare all my meals for at least 60 hours so in case something goes wrong I have everything in place.

I lied to you! I usually, during offseason, rush to the shower, and off to work with a protein bar in my mouth because my days are quite packed.

If I feel hungry during my fat loss period and it’s not cheat day, I try to take a protein bar (usually a protein bar from Snickers).
