When You Need a Burst of Energy

Do you need a burst of energy?

I often talk about how to build up your body so that you have optimum energy levels and feel younger – you know, how to put the air back in your balloon.

But there comes a time when you are actually in need of a burst of energy for the situation you are in. It’s the kind of feeling you can get when you are tempted to grab one of those 5 hour energy drinks when you are in the check-out line and feel like you are fading fast. (Please don’t buy those. They are can be deadly to your body. Literally.)

Powerful Burst of Energy for Sports Performance

My daughter was in sectionals for track. In her heat, she came in 3rd which meant she  made finals. Her time from the two combined heats ranked her 5th for the 8 girls running the finals, but she needed to place 3rd to make it to the next step of regionals the following week.

Right before the final sprint, she took two Energy Chews for the burst of speed she needed to beat the other two girls who had better times than hers in the semi-finals.

Guess what? She came in 3rd and went to Regionals! It was a real victory for her.

Many Olympians use Shaklee products to help them be the best they can be.

Curt Tomasevicz, an Olympic bobsledder, says that Shaklee’s Energy Chews are his secret weapon.

But, let’s face it – most of you reading this post are not getting ready to run a high school race for your best time nor are you in training for an Olympic event!

Rather, your need for a burst of energy might be for a long drive you have to make.

Or an afternoon pick me up at the office.

Or endurance for your long day watching your grandchildren.

Here are some testimonies for getting that burst of energy you need:

Alert during Drives and Meeting: “Energy Chews really helped me stay alert on the long solo drives from NJ to OH and back. They were also helpful to keep me alert at some meetings and lectures that seemed to go on forever. I always keep a small bag of Energy chews in my purse.”   Georgia D

Endurance for Working Out: “My favorite use of Energy Chews is one in the early morning before exercise class. I used to have to drink a glass of Performance Hydrate in order to have the energy to exercise before breakfast. But now by taking an Energy Chew, I have sustained high energy to make it through pretty high intensity classes – Boot Camp, cycling, and Will, Power & Grace – a cross between yoga and Power Pilates. And then I run a fast-paced mile after class. All this before 7 a.m.” Ruth N

Afternoon Energy “Pick Me Up”: “I absolutely love our Energy Chews! I am so against energy drinks that when Shaklee launched this product I was a little skeptical. However, I very quickly found that these are just life savers for me, especially around 3:30pm every day. Right about the time when I pick up my girls from school, I need more energy because they need my full attention and it feels like I need to start my day again. It’s like my brain “resets” and I feel completely refreshed! I love Shaklee Energy Chews, and I never feel jittery nor do they keep me awake at night.” Lisa A

Focus and Alert: “I love Energy Chews because they make me focus better and be more alert. I use them for meetings if I’m tired or early morning BNI meetings at 7:00am which get me up at 5:00 a.m. I really love them for when I have a couple of hours to drive home at night. I take them 15 minutes before I get into the car and they wake me up and I’m alert for driving! They are also very good for reading when you know you have to get a lot of focused reading done. Taking Classes is another time they come in handy – for optimal studying and concentration. Love my Energy Chews for lots of good reasons! They are natural too.” Cathy P

Early morning Energy for Work Out: “This morning I wanted to get to the gym early to avoid the crowds so I didn’t have time for breakfast. I grabbed two energy chews and oh my! I had so much energy during my work out and never felt hungry. These are amazing.” Mare S
