Excellent DVD with great instructions, clear and easy to follow. I was really impressed with the boxers used for the demonstrations.

I have started to use the bag at the gym to ramp up my cardio fitness and to add more variety my workouts. The circuit programs suggested are demanding but that is what its all about. My skipping still needs practice, but this DVD has really helped.

If you are looking just to get fit or start boxing with correct form and instruction then this DVD is for you.

If you have done a bit of boxing before and understand how much there is to it, you will want a resource that helps encourage you to keep up the training. This is more than adequate for the job. From basics like stance and punch types right through to full workouts to help you get into shape this is a pretty good DVD.

The instructor is clearly experienced and his tone is knowledgable and down-to-earth throughout. The DVD is divided into mini chapters which I found was useful as it usually takes me more than one go for me to learn a technique correctly. I’m back in the boxing gym now and on days when I’m not i’ll go through a chapter or two to go over any weak areas that have been highlighted.

While there’s no substitute for getting yourself into a good boxing gym if you want to learn to box, I would say this DVD is as useful as gloves and a gumshield if you’re going to train properly.

POWERSTAR Boxing Headguard Face Protector Helmet is made from good quality synthetic leather with an open face style while still providing full protection for your forehead, cheek bones and your chin. Although the ears are open, they are still very well protected with an extra strap across, and at the same time there is extra padding around the ear for more protection.
The adjustable closing point at the back of the helmet is fitted with two cushioned Velcro strap closures to cover a very sensitive part of the head. The three layered padding allows for extra cushioning, while keeping it light enough to allow for long and hard sparring sessions, without making it too difficult to wear due to its open face, open head and open ear styling, comes in junior and senior size.

This rope comes in a nice handy carry bag so it folds way neatly into a gym bag without the hassle of getting the rope tangled up. The rope is a good size for a 5’9″er, you will not need to change size of the rope, though the adjustable screws are about 1 cm wide and not fiddly like other ropes available. Really easy to adjust and was able to do with finger pressure in the gym without the need for any tools.

On using the rope the handles are quite long which allows you to hold them in full grip or by finger and thumb. On using the rope for skipping, I found double unders really comfortable. I have had a calf injury for 3 months and only just gone back to skipping this week. No issues after a long break. my timing was like I had never stopped. The rope rotates really well and allows you to really speed up your skipping.

I am really happy with this rope and will continue to use in WOD’S. As an extra I also received the free ebook training for the skipping rope. The book is well set out with good instruction and excellent training programmes. The whole package is well worth the money. Anyone who buys this will not be disappointed.

I have always liked the idea of protein shakes but hated the chemical taste and horrible ingredients that you find in most, this is just whey protein isolate and has a mild milky taste. I blend this in the morning with coconut water or milk and frozen fruit and it makes a great breakfast or post workout drink, very pleased with the price too!

This whey protein powder is 90% protein and only 2% carbohydrate and 1% fat, it does not contain aspartame (which causes headaches in some people) or any other sweeteners.

It is made using cross-flow ultra-filtration and micro-filtration. Pulsin says that they only use quality hormone free British milk, from grass fed cows. Good for the cows and good for anyone who uses this product. Indeed, this whey protein powder is good stuff.

The product has a neutral milky taste on its own but I add pomegranate juice (100% pure with no added sugar or water) and fruits, what makes for great tasting and adds some fiber to the smoothie.

One of the best things about this product is that it has nothing added to it: No nasty sweeteners, no flavours, no sugar, etc. It is a very neutral product that gives you the choice of drinking it as it is or with juices, fruits, porridge etc. It is, I would say, a personalised smoothie powder, what makes this whey protein powder stand out from the crowd of whey powders because most of them add vitamins and other things that you might not need or want.

The blending will add foam to the drink but this is only natural as the product is practically fat free whey, what makes for more foam and, actually, shows the good quality of this protein powder.

Sometimes I put about 100 grams of powder in my smoothie and drink half of it straight away but the second half I will only drink hours later, as I don’t think that my body will be able to properly absorb more than 45 grams of protein at once. The second drink, because it is settled, will have more foam but all I need to do is to add a little more juice and stir it with a spoon.

It is certainly an excellent source of protein if you lift weights, like me. Nevertheless, you don’t need to be working out in order to benefit from this protein powder. You can also use it if you live a fast life and need a good smoothie to get going, if you are on a diet etc.
