Whey Protein Bars and Active Lifestyle Contest

September 22, 2009 by admin · Leave a Comment 

Hi, this is Coreylee here. I’ve managed to make it though my first few months and things are heating up. That being said summer is almost over and the nights are getting cooler. This is perfect weather for evening walks and trail running.

But are you getting enough protein?

Protein is the building block of muscle, so you’re protein requirements will increase with any form of training. A lack of protein will result in muscles loss, a weaker immune system, slower recovery time and less energy.

Try this simple calculator: The recommended daily allowance (RDA) of protein is 0.36 grams per pound of body weight or 56 grams of protein a day for the average male and 46 grams for the average female. For people with an active lifestyle the protein requirements jump to 1.7 grams of protein per kilo of bodyweight. If you want to build muscle as fast as possible, you will need at least 2.5 grams of protein per kilo of bodyweight.

Why Whey?

Whey protein contains amino acids such as leucine which increases protein synthesis and speeds up recovery time. Studies have also shown that whey protein increases cellular glutathione levels. Glutathione is an antioxidant that combats free radicals in the body and helps reduce the risk cancer.

Now for the fun stuff!

Here at Elevate Me! We are running a contest for the best Elevate Me! picture. The first 3 people to send in a picture of you and your Elevate Me! bar doing any of the fantastic sports you enjoy, be it yoga, running or simply walking in Lynn Canyon will receive a box of Elevate Me! bars.

September 1, 2009 by admin · 1 Comment 

Hi, this is Coreylee, the new marketing manager here at Elevate Me! We would like to announce our Back to School Sale which is on now!

For just a few days save $2.00 per box of bars as we welcome you back to school and work!

This is a great time to start planning those lunches and getting organized as we head into September.

The brain is a hungry organ that cannot function at optimal levels without the proper fuels. To keep the brain functioning at top performance, diets packed with brain boosting essential fatty acids and good quality proteins are a must! Next to water, protein makes up most of the weight of our bodies. Muscles, organs, hair, nails and ligaments are all composed of protein, so it’s obvious why protein is an important part of the diet.

This is your chance to try a flavour you haven’t tried before or to stock up on the ones you love. Keep these bars in your car, your gym bag and at your desk and next time you are hungry and need a snack, do something healthy for yourself and your brain and reach for a low fat, high fibre Elevate Me protein bar!

Enjoy!
