This is why we have developed the Rinse and Repeat (R&R for short) complete fitness and nutrition guide. Complete with video demonstration of […]

Day 18 of the 24 Day AdvoCare Challenge. It feels great to be less than a week away from finishing. I know it will be no problem to get past the 24 days. In fact it has been much easier than I thought it would. I had another day with a clean diet, and I […]
