Rock Star Boot Camp
Approved Nutrition Supplements
Everyone is always asking us “what about supplements?” “What’s better?” “Will it help?”
We 100% recommend ProGrade Nutrition. Here's why:
If you just go to a local health store (see: GNC, Hi-Health), there is nothing that keeps the store (or person who recommended the product) accountable for the quality of what is actually INSIDE the product. There are way
too many shady-made, even dangerous, "healthy" products on the market today. This stuff scares the heck out of us because we want the best for your body.
That why we support ProGrade Nutrition. They are a GMP rated lab, so what they say is in the bottle, is in the bottle.
Let me explain.
Take protein powder for example:
CONCERN #1: Most common protein powders you find are tainted with unhealthy, artificial sweeteners...such as sucralose or aspartame.
Prograde Protein Powder is sweetened with stevia, a plant-based natural sweetener, NOT man-made.
CONCERN #2: Here is the actual ingredient list from a popular protein powder sold in a local store:
INGREDIENTS: Protein Blend (Whey Protein Concentrate, [Providing DI, Tri-, Oligo-, And Polypeptides], Whey Protein Isolate [Ion-Exchanged 97% Purity], Partially Hydrolyzed Whey Protein Concentrate), Cocoa Powder, Natural And Artificial Flavors, Sucralose, Acesulfame-Potassium, Soy Lecithin. Contains Milk Ingredients.
Yikes. Way to many 'unknowns' and questionable items on that list.
Now, here's the ingredient list from Prograde Protein Powder:
Ingredients: Whey protein isolate, whey protein concentrate, natural flavors and salt. Contains milk and soy (lecithin) ingredients.
See the difference?
ALL PROGRADE PRODUCTS ARE MADE FROM FOOD, NOT SYNTHETIC SUBSTANCES!
Speaking of protein, one the biggest questions is "what should I eat after the workout?"
The best choice is with quality protein and a high glyemic value (high in sugar...I am referring to
sugar, NOT high fructose corn syrup). The natural sugar (like in grape juice, or other juices), when mixed with protein powder will provide easy and quick transport of nutrients into bloodstream after the workout. However if you would like to by the juices, you can get the same great results from Prograde Workout, a fantastic vanilla post workout drink.
Another quick, on-the-go idea is 6-8 ounces of organic, lowfat chocolate milk - grab one at any convenience store or grocery store.
So what do you need to get optimal results?
Here is a 'short list' to make sure you are getting the proper supplementation and maximum benefit from your boot camp fitness training.
If you are:
• on-the-go and need a quick meal replacement for breakfast (or anytime), get: (Prograde Lean)
• getting hungry middle of the day and find yourself over eating at the next meal or going to a vending machine/convenient store you need (Prograde Cravers) or (Prograde Lean)
• getting less than 3 servings of fruit per day, you need (ProGrade Longevity)
It is also strongly recommended that you start taking a whole-foods, gender based multivitamin immediately:
Guys, this is for you: (Prograde VGF 25 Male)
Ladies, this one is made for you: (Prograde VGF 25 Female)
Also, regardless of gender, everyone should be supplementing your body with Essential Fatty Acids and quality Omega 6 fats, you should be taking this: (EFA Icon)
By the way, do the 'smart ship' option when you order. It'll save you money and you can cancel anytime. No more guess work!

*Normally there is a lot of flexibility of attending different camps other than your primary time, but due to full roster at most times, this must be kept to a minimum until further notice.
