To kick issues off, listed below are a couple of which have caught my eye from the UK…
I do know protein is vital for muscle progress, however after a tough session when I’m exhausted and thirsty the very last thing I need is a giant, thick, lumpy, creamy protein shake.
Recently I’ve found clear protein. If you’ve got an aversion to regular shakes then give this peach tea flavour choice from Myprotein. I’m not going to let you know it is scrumptious, nevertheless it goes down loads simpler than vanilla that is for certain!
I feel we have shouted about these lights each Prime day and Black Friday for the previous couple of years however they continue to be such purchase that I’m going to maintain it going in the present day as they’ve as soon as once more been decreased.
Basically they exchange your bar ends. Super easy, simple to put in, with a stable and two flashing modes. For a fairly low-cost sum you will seem loads wider to automobiles coming from behind you. I run a set on each my long run bikes all winter.
