I know there are many women who have it tougher than I do (single moms—how do you do it?!), but it goes without saying that sometimes I struggle to take care of myself.

Specifically, as a working mom with limited time and spending money, I can’t always make self care and fitness the priorities they should be.

Luckily, there’s BeFit.

BeFit is a 30-day fat burning program consisting of high intensity cardio and strength training workouts that help sculpt lean muscles.

Early this month, I received a bundle of goodies that I’ve been using before and after my workouts: BeFit Whey Protein Powder in chocolate, Pre Workout, and Burn.

I’ve had a lot of fun playing around with the nutritional products, but my favorite part of the program has to be the quick workouts!

Each BeFit workout is approximately 10 minutes long and requires minimal equipment (just your bodyweight or some light dumbbells).

The first week, I watched the introductory video and followed the program calendar as written, but I went a bit off course the rest of the month and added my other usual workouts into the mix.

The high-intensity workouts may be quick and uncomplicated, but you definitely feel the burn. Once you start doing 2 workouts back-to-back, it’s even better, and I have no doubt I will continue incorporating these into my fitness routine!

Now let’s back up and talk about the nutritional products.

I’ve tried a handful of protein powders that I use in my breakfast smoothies or after a particularly tough workout, but I’ve never used a pre-workout supplement.

Generally I favor plant-based powders, but, you guys—this whey powder is silky smooth and delicious!

To give it the purest taste test possible, I mixed it (as directed) with 6 oz milk, and it went down just like classic chocolate milk. Most powders are a bit gritty, but there wasn’t a grain to be found. Plus, it wasn’t too sweet, and it didn’t have a chemical aftertaste that accompanies some powders I’ve tried.

It made a seriously frothy and thick smoothie when added to my Ninja with frozen banana, spinach, peanut butter, almond milk, and a tiny handful of ice, and I think it would work great in some no-bake protein bars or bites!

The Pre Workout mix is fruit punch-flavored. The flavor was ok, but it did have a slight chemical taste to it. I’ve never used anything like it, so I have no idea how it compares to other brands.

The blend is supposed to boost energy, increase endurance, increase focus, and provide much-needed electrolytes during your workout.

It’s hard to tell just how effective it is (I’m a mom, remember—I’m always struggling with energy and focus!), but I plan to continue drinking it before my more intense workouts.

Finally, there’s Burn. I was a little iffy on this one, seeing as how I’m not trying to lose weight.

Two veggie capsules are taken 15 minutes before your heaviest meal, and they are supposed to promote weight loss, help mobilize fats for energy, support blood sugar levels, and help increase thermogenesis—which is fancy science-talk for the body’s production of heat.

I am not usually a proponent of weight loss pills (I don’t think they’re effective since diet and lifestyle changes are the only way to truly make a difference), but I took a couple before dinner on two occasions just to see if they had any weird taste (they didn’t).

Overall, I love the BeFit products and plan to continue using most of them. And now you have the chance to win your own BeFit package!
