These bars are really tasty and especially good if you are serious about your muscle building. they come in several flavours peanut, chocolate, chocolate cheesecake, strawberry and chocolate orange, but my favourite has to be the peanut ones. More convenient than protein drinks and they contain 50grams of protein per bar but are low in carbohydrates. They are filling and i often have one as a meal replacement if i haven't time to eat or i am eating on the run. The strawberry flavour does taste a little powdery and they can all be a bit sickly but i sometimes split it into half and have it in 2 sittings. All in all a good bar for anyone wanting to up their protein intake. A bit pricey but if you look around on the web you can finds some cheaper. ...
Advantages: Product designed for follwing a fitness regime Disadvantages: Price.
REVIEW OF BODY FOR LIFE PROTEINBARS
**What are they?**
Body For Life proteinbars are an integral part of the Body for Life fitness plan. They are intended as a meal replacement/snack bar for those following the plan, or as an after sports snack, but can of course be eaten by anyone !
Body for Life is a fitness and muscle building program designed by American fitness expert, Bill Phillips. The program is based on weight training, intense aerobic exercise and a high protein eating to build muscle and lose body fat. The author of Body For Life was at the time of writing his book, a co-owner of the nutritional supplement company EAS, the manufacturer of Body for Life ProteinBars, so no wonder these bars and other products were recommended.
However, I digress. My partner has been following the program for a while now ...
Advantages: Taste good! not too expensive, works extremely well Disadvantages: May upset your stomach if you take too much.
have been handpicked not just because of their high levels of protein, but also because of the fact that each type of protein has a slightly different function (as mentioned in the physiology section). As an overview (I don?t want to sports science you to death!) the proteins above are successful muscle builders, as essentially this product is geared up for people who are looking to increase muscle size and muscle mass.
