NO2 BEST Product I’ve found…plus info on Creatine~!
Posted by buffmother in Supplements on March 11th, 2010
Anyhow here’s my 2 cents:
On the NO2 product question my answer is this…I’ve tried MANY, MANY, MANY products that claim to be NO2…most of which are VERY expensive. and Most of which do NOTHING for me. The recommendation that I make is to take the one version of NO2 that I’ve found VERY EFFECTIVE:
Higher Power NO-XS, 180 Tablets
No-explode and other POWDER type- preworkout concoctions are not in my mind NO2 products. They are CREATINE! the reason they work boils down to the fact they have CREATINE in them. So…if you want to take CREATINE they are the products you want. The 2 creatines I am currently taking and recommend are:
1- OVERDOSE- this is a more mild version of a pre-workout creatine. Many creatines cause stomach irritation and contain a TON of stimulants. This one is good in that I’ve never had a “bathroom” issue with it and I don’t feel crazy buzzed from it. Take it as directed on the container.
2-6 Star muscle brand Professional Strength Creatine (fruit Punch)- this I get at Wal-Mart. I like this because It has NO stimulants in it so I can take it any time of day! I also love the taste and love the results from this product.
Celebration Day!
Posted by buffmother in Fitness on March 9th, 2010
All day I’ve been Celebrating being done with my first batch of TAXES!! Late yesterday I finally completed my 2008 taxes~Yippie!!
Yoga/pilates have been on my mind today…tons of people have told me to do them to help my back/hips/butt issues and I think I’ll try a class today; it should be a good change of pace for me since it’s been 3 years since the last time I took any class at the gym! I tend to stay away from them becuase I get too competitive and end up hurting myself, lol! What’s your favorite class to take at your gym? Mine isn’t at my dayt to day gym…it’s at a Fighting gym- TCB in Rogers, AR…the women’s MMA Class rocks!! My trainer; Lylna (pronounced: LENA), actually just won our local ToughMan tournament this past weekend. She’s a little pitbull!
Anyhow…I plan to go to workout AFTER my kiddos get home from school which is in about 30 mins. I’ve been busy writing training programs all day~ so I can’t wait to get away from this computer!
I’ll be back later to post what I ended up doing.
Toodles,
Michelle

I overdid it!
Posted by buffmother in Fitness on March 6th, 2010
I over did it on the 3 workouts I did M-T-W so I eneded up needing to take 2 days off instead of just one….but today the plan is to hit it again. Chest, Tris and ABS~ my back is a little more bothersome to me today. It may be from my cleaning up the back yard yesteray. It was a mess…anyhow I CLEANED the back yard in my bikni! After wards I layed in the sun and read a book- it was wonderful!!
Today so far, I’ve been catching up with my e-mails and with my FB friend and with you! I’ve been so busy working on taxes that I’ve been a little MIA~ sorry about that!! It’s good to see you are staying fired up and have such awesome MOJO! I LOVE YOUR DEDIDCATION!!!
I’ve been listening to this song over and over this morning- the lyrics are below
Brandie Carlie, The Story
All of these lines across my face
Tell you the story of who I am
So many stories of where I’ve been
And how I got to where I am
But these stories don’t mean anything
When you’ve got no one to tell them to
It’s true…I was made for you
I climbed across the mountain tops
Swam all across the ocean blue
I crossed all the lines and… I broke all the rules
But baby I broke them all for you
Because even when I was flat broke
You made me feel like a million bucks
Yeah you do and I was made for you
You see the smile that’s on my mouth
Is hiding the words that don’t come out
And all of my friends who think that I’m blessed
They don’t know my head is a mess
No, they don’t know who I really am
And they don’t know what I’ve been through but you do
And I was made for you…
Have a super SATURDAY!!
-Michelle
Do you have Energy? Or NRG?
Posted by buffmother in Fitness on February 22nd, 2010
HI!!! How’s everyone doing today? I am good and being good….I’ve rested from working out since Sunday~ and I’ve been icing my back too….improvement with my back seems slow in coming. I may go get it adjusted at the Chiropractor today or tomorrow. Anyhow, I am not missing my workouts much and have been feeding of off your awesome progress and posts!! So many of you are really inspiring me with your hard work and determination.
The past few days I’ve been working on my contest training programs. I had forgotten how EXCITED it makes me to train others!! I really do love it!! I am truly blessed to get to do what I do!! The ladies on our TEAM are going to ROCK the gym as the prep and ROCK the stage big time this year!! I LOVE IT!!
Did you know I am a huge supporter of NRG brand fitness supplements?. My good friend Joshua Smith started the company and has been a big time supporter of BuffMother! He’s been “sponsoring” me with supplements for past several months and put together this cool flyer that he’ll distribute at the ARNOLD the first weekend in MARCH! Isn’t’ it cool? If you click on the picture it’ll bring you to the NRG Website.
I like the 3 items shown on the flyer (stinger-energy shot, maxx pump- creatine pills- I’m taking them currently, Greens supplement-which I typically take during buffing) and several others:
Liver maxx
Overdose- PRE workout creatine product- it’s not as CRAZY stimulating as NO explode
and MAXXTraXtion- their “water release” supplement
I have yet to try the new digestion one…but I plan on taking that soon!!
Anyhow…I am off to get some more training programs put together. I’ll strive to catch up with you all later this afternoon!!

Wellness
Posted by buffmother in Fitness on January 21st, 2010
HI all!! Well I am home from my day of “wellness”…I went tanning for my mental/sunshine/warmth needs, I went to the chiro for my adjustment and the I went to massage therapist for my muscle relaxation needs. I believe it has and will continue to help me get back to healthy workouts next week!!
Seeing all of your fun CONTEST posts and first test results has made me VERY excited to do mine next week!! Please be sure to watch/read the blog posts about the contest to this point. They are all accessible UNDER THE “BOOKS” section on the left hand menu under JUST DO IT! – 6 weeks
I’ve been doing a bunch more research today on rehab stuff for my butt and back…I think what I’ll do is write up a little “series” for the rally room to summarize what I’m going to do these next few weeks to get back on the attack now that I am able to MOVE again, lol! It’s so sad to me that I may have to give up my fighting class for awhile…the kicking is probably part of my problem 
I may talk to the instructor about working around my back for a couple weeks?? But I HATE that! I’d almost rather just not go then have to “alter” my participation.
Okay…NOW…I’m putting this here for myself as reference and a reminder- It doesn’t mean anything more that I am “toying” with the idea of doing this contest…who knows:
(/FYI, you should click the above link for the music if nothing else- FUN SONG!)
Alrighty, I’ve gotta go eat more and get more water into this BODY~!
BE WELL!!
You can still sign up for the 6 week challenge at www.therallyroom.com!
Love, MICHELLE
