My name is Curt and welcome to my channel. I review fitness products, do a cost analysis on them, then give them my own rating to help you decide whether they are worth purchasing or not. I buy all of my products with my own money, and I’m not sponsored by anyone. If I am given a product for free by a manufacturer, I will always let you know at the beginning of the video. I am also NOT a certified nutritionist or trainer or health professional, so always do your own research on a product before trying it. I hope my videos give you a little extra information that can help you out!

NOBULL Trainer & Trainer Plus Review | My Thoughts After The First Week
I have severe digestive issues so Kachava has been great for me. It is very hard for to digest solid foods...even healthy foods. Honestly I drink Kachava in the morning at 7 am and I don't feel hungry til 3pm. Again I can't eat three meals a day my body can't digest that solid food. Totally love the Coconut Acai...even more the Chocolate...which surprised me because I never eat Coconut.
So sorry to hear about your digestive issues, but happy you’ve found Ka’Chava able to help solve them!
If you want to make it more difficult to get your heart rate higher you could try wearing a weighted vest or maybe a backpack with 10-20 lb dumbbell
True. But I think I’ll upgrade to a treadmill or walking pad with an incline next!
Step count is not as important as what you do with those steps, quality is better than quantity! Getting your heart rate up as way more important than doing 10k steps.
I think there is an argument to be made for both sides. The hard part is these mini steppers only are supposed to be used for 15mins at a time. That makes it hard to keep up that heart rate long enough to burn fat.
@@FitnessFinance4uyes and for that reason these won’t be for me, thanks for the content!
Thanks a lot for your time and review !
Thanks for watching!
I got the Sperax pad with a 9 degree incline. It's great so far the incline makes a big difference for me. Unfortunately it doesn't come with a handrail that would have been nice.
I’ll have to see if another company makes a “handrail” version of that.
I just bought this and it is not turning on? Plugged it in and the red power light is on, but not the digital screen and won't work with the remote or manual settings. Anyone else experience this? It did not come with a manual and I cannot find one online!
Return it right away. Sounds like you got a lemon.
Hey! Great video thanks! I've been looking into purchasing my first pair of barefoot shoes, but also noticed in your most recent videos you're still reviewing "normal" shoes, have your views on barefoot shoes changed since you made this video, or do you still like to wear barefoot shoes in some situations? Anyways keep up the good work sir!
Thanks for watching. I realized that running in barefoot shoes was not my thing. It takes a lot of times to transition from running in normal shoes to running in barefoot shoes (some of the viewers have said it takes 1 to 2 years). I also injured my achilles tendon on both legs from trying to transition to barefoot shoes too fast. That being said, I am back to more normal shoes with a less "heel to toe" drop when I walk and run. However, I don't mind wearing them every now and again to workout in, as I find that they are great for gripping the ground when weight lifting.
@@FitnessFinance4u thank you for the response! I'm still thinking of trying some, it's just nice to see also someone honestly say that it didn't "magically solve all their bodliy issues" that some ads might want me to believe. So in other words, they might be good for different things. If what I get is correct. Might be nice for weightlifting or if you're standing all day. But will require a change in technique if you are used to running in normal shoes seems to be how I understand it. Thanks again!
THANK YOU FOR THE VIDEO,IT HELPED ME TOO SEE IT BEFORE I BUY IT, LOOKS LIKE A GREAT PRODUCT 😇👍🏾
Glad it was helpful!
Oh I like this guy. Easy watching reviews. Subscribed 🙏
Cheers!
You want to feel the ground more and buy a Hoka?
Yes. Believe it or not, I have other running shoe brads that have more cushioning than Hoka's. Some Hoka model's are better than others for feeling the ground.
I play both tennis and pickleball. About the same... I get it, tennis courts are bigger so chasing the ball is more of a pain. But to be honest, pickleball you get more action with fire fights.
I didn’t know that. Thanks for the info!
The small opening alone is a deal breaker. Trying to pour water into that tiny opening while hiking would suck. I cold soak a lot, and I am not even tempted by this.
That makes sense. Maybe they can do a Rek Pak .2 version that has a wider opening at the top. Hopefully they'll read this?
How is the new meatloaf flavor

Hi love this content! Can you review metabolic confusion meal plans.
Thanks for watching. I'll check out the product.
means the only good think is the gift"
The drink wasn't bad.
Fitness & Finance - you gotta be getting paid by Adidas because the Adidas Adilett Slides are about as cheaply made and feel as you can get🤨
Nope. They don’t even make them anymore or sell them. I still have mine and love them.
Anyone suggest which size Odyssey to but for a 60.5cm head? I usually wear Yupoong snapbacks with the rear closure halfway closed.
According to their size chart, it looks like an XL would be best for you.
You know I’m in the market for one. This one looks good. Watching. You mentioned carpet. Can it be level on carpet?
Yes it can. It makes it even quieter too!
Thanks I am in the market for a walking (actually light jogging) pad and put this in the search bar here. I see this barely got you to a fast paced walk so won't work for me. Just wondering if you came across any that would get you to a decent jog pace?
I haven’t tried any others that are best for running yet. I will definitely do this one day.
@@FitnessFinance4u Thank you for the reply.
You should have went with the size small in the shorts
I still use those today. I couldn’t fit into a small!
This is similar to my current treadmill. I have a SupeRun 2 in 1, 3.0 HP. It goes up to 7.5mph. As a full time remote worker its been great to have for my standing desk setup. Good review. I have something you might really enjoy reviewing - The SledTred by The Tib Bar Guy. It has a manual treadmill that can incline. It's an awesome piece of equipment. Im currently waiting until they ship mine in September.
Thanks. I’ll look into it.
It makes me anxious, i have no idea why. Abd weight loss is so 1999. These days food is expensive and being fat is a luxury!
I use a backpack with about 20 lbs of books to elevate the hr.
That’s one way of doing it!👌
I hated flow. I really tried to like it.
Wow, hated? So sorry you didn’t like it.
Hi! First time at your channel. I had bought a very similar device but a different brand. It was no help at all. I am a female at 120 pounds and it didn’t matter where I set the resistance, it didn’t give me much assistance. I ended up buying the extra thick resistant bands loops, and they were more help. (By the way, you look so much like the actor Rutger Hauer. That’s a good thing as he was gorgeous. )❤
Glad you were finally able to get something that helped! Thanks for the compliment 😉
I make a chili in 10 minutes for $20 that feeds me for 3 days
Pass on the recipe!
@FitnessFinance4u 2lb. Ground turkey, a can of red beans, a can of Rotel tomatoes, a can of diced potatoes, a packet of chili seasoning. Done. The macros come out perfectly for me.
I bought this composter at a discount and hooked it up yesterday. Thanks for posting your video!
Hope you enjoy it!
Does anyone know if Kachava could be made more Keto by adding some MCT oil? 2 Tablespoons would ADD 240 calories, MCT being tasteless and odorless.
Hmm, best to ask a certified nutritionist about that.
Thank you for telling me that $11 for a frozen meal is, in fact, a good deal.
It is. When I go to lunch it’s at least $16 to $18 a meal plus tax.
@@FitnessFinance4u Do you know what a kitchen is?
I recently purchased two A-Game Hydros, one white and one royal blue. Took the white one on a 5 day trip to NYC, first day it got really sweaty and showed some yellowish stains. Gave it a good wash and was looking new in no time. The next few days sweat will show on the hat, but it dried fast and left no stains.
🙌👏!
How easy was it for you to use the mouse and keyboard while walking on the pad?
It took a couple times to get used to. But after that, it felt pretty normal.
great video :) thank you
Thanks for watching. Still love the mat!
Why are they selling it for $12 now?!?
Shortly after I made this video, I read BioSteel was going into bankruptcy. I think they are liquidating product, but I can't be sure. It will be interesting to see if another company takes them over. I still think their protein powder is really good, so a good time to stock up!
@@FitnessFinance4u the isolate taste way better than the recovery power, but I randomly came across them in a bulk sale store where the entire shelf of biosteel was listed $12 for 25.6 oz.

You found starts then haha 😆 too bad about the honey 😢
yes...very sad face...
UH OH
🤣
I love your humour 😂
TY...I try to entertain!
A couple of game changers for me - changing poncho, finally, after years, I've bought one. Brilliant! Finally, after years of refusing to get one, I've ordered a changing mat/bag. Makes so much sense! Couple of tips - plastic bags on feet and hands = effortless sliding in to the suit NB don't forget to take the bags off. Hang loose, from a very wet UK.
Great to hear you finally came around to the "changing poncho"! And thanks for the tip on the plastic bags. Amazing that you are surfing in the UK. You are tougher than me!
@@FitnessFinance4u ha ha. Definitely not tougher! Long time windsurfer -used to windsurf all year round. When I learned we used to have to break the ice around the edge of the lake. The wetsuits were shyte! Then the sea - not as cold - but still cold lol. Worst part were the frozen hands. Just found out that I've got Reynaud's, so even more of an issue. Still, got to get in the water!
Nice vid, nice waves! Would like to see same comparison with the 5/4 Epics. I'm lean with broad shoulders (6ft 195lbs) with tight shoulders. Tried a couple of chest zip suits on, in a shop. Didn't know the technique and REALLY struggled. Have now ordered the Epic 5/4 back zip suit. Can't wait, as it should be so much more flexible than my old suit.
I don't think I'll ever step foot in a 5/4. If I do, it means I've lost my mind as I'm probably somewhere I shouldn't be. Ha ha! Good luck with the new suit!
@@FitnessFinance4u unfortunately that's life in the North Sea in UK.
Great info, thanks. For my foot, the Arahi works better for me. I need the pronation support, which the Clifton doesn't have. Also, I'm not a runner. I do daily walks instead.
That’s great. Sounds like you found the right shoe. It can be a journey!
The not having to cook or think about what to cook is worth it. Someday, I'm gonna get factor just for the ease of mind and stress free good meals.
Here's my latest insight. The food is not "phenomenal", but it's better than most things I cook for myself. Plus, if you are working a lot , or have a busy schedule, it's nice to know there is a meal waiting for you when you get home and you only have to heat it up. When I had the subscription, I still cooked breakfast for myself, as I didn't mind that. Plus it saved me buying an extra meal. I hope you enjoy it!
I got a pair of these and they feel amazing. Used to swear by the originals in the 80s and these are a big step up from those. I've bought a 2nd pair in another colorway. One will be my daily wears and one will be kept sparkling white as my 'dress' seakers
Nice...I still love my Lux's. An upcoming review of mine will be about how to keep them clean!
@@FitnessFinance4u Looking forward to it! I was getting ready to go buy some melamine sponges, but I'll wait to see what you have to say first!
Could you do a review on JOCKO greens please..
I'll see if anyone else wants this and maybe do a video. Putting it on my "wait" list now.
Bought my Alpine Navy Aluminum in 2019. Best wallet ever!
Agree! 😃
What is the pricing? Did I miss that? I also dont see it on their website anywhere. Is it much less than a real live trainer or will we get sticker shock?
I got a year membership for $1788. That's $149 a month. So yes, much less than a personal trainer. I know it's more if you get a 6 month or 3 month membership. As I write this they are offering a 50% off deal for the first month. Start by clicking on "find a coach" and go through the prompts. I believe you have to go through all the prompts until you get to the pricing. (I can't remember now!). If you don't want to join after doing all that, just leave the website. Here's my affiliate link if you are interested. www.future.co/squaredance50p/?Bpartner%7D&code=squaredance50p&affiliate=1FWcvgpKVHmHuoYvUoq8UpR-PK4tCNgfaE-99xKHXiM%7E%2F%2F%2F&sd=393915
Trust and believe the shoe you looking for are the arahi 6. The new arahi 7 is far less Cushioning then that arahi 6 but the not too soft like the Clifton 9. Not sure why they changed it. But the 6 vs the 7 are very different… the arahi 6 are the perfect model that’s right in between the Clifton 9 and arahi 7
Thanks for the tip!
This stepper actually helped me tremendously. While I was exercising on it, at the time I was doing arm/shoulder exercises with weights. This combination made me sweat. I did not use tension cords. With time I started to notice a big difference in my appearance. It worked for me. 💖
That’s awesome. Sounds like you built a great routine with it!
wow what a professional review ! Thanks for that, this video is so great, very dynamic, to the point ! I loved that
Appreciate that and thanks for watching!
I got a pair of it with green tail when I was 21, and now I want to get one more again after decades, lux is quite stylish.
I still love my lux’s!
Hi, is there a way to change the temperature from °F to °C ?
Good question. I went through the manual to see what I could find about it and didn't find anythng. If you are in the US, you might want to get ahold of support@maestrihouse.com. I hope it helps!
