Are you familiar with celebrity fitness trainer Owen McKibbin? If not, you should be. Not only was Owen a pro beach volleyball player and Hawaii State Champion in volleyball, soccer and canoeing, but he’s also represented the United States in a number of World Championships.
But it’s the nineteen covers of Men’s Health magazine that Owen is probably best known for. Owen has established himself as a leading voice on health and fitness. He and his fitness message have been featured by CBS News, The New York Times, People Magazine, The View, Extra TV, and Entertainment Tonight. His first book, The Men’s Health Cover Model Workout, Body Sculpting Secrets of the World’s Top Fitness Model, is available throughout North America, the United Kingdom, and Puerto Rico.
Did I mention that this guy is ripped?
We were on the set of Owen’s new infomercial for all-in-one gym The Rack, out later this year. During a quick break from filming, we asked Owen how EBOOST helps him boost his energy, immunity, recovery and focus during tough workouts. Here’s what he had to say:
Those of you on our mailing list found out about this yesterday (yet another reason to join our list!). Our fantastic new acai-pomegranate flavor begins shipping tomorrow. We’re taking pre-orders now and if you place an order before tomorrow night, you’ll get free shipping anywhere in the US.
Açaí (ah-sigh-ee) berries come from a special Amazon palm tree and they’re packed full of antioxidants and dietary fiber. Some interesting açaí facts:
Açaí berries are one of the planet’s highest sources of antioxidants, with one berry holding 10 times the amount of antioxidants as grapes, and 2 times the amount of blueberries, according to Oprah expert Dr Perricone.
We’re particularly impressed with the drawing of a Diet Coke Bong! Read the full review here.
I don’t know about y’all, but I am an admitted Diet Coke addict. Seriously. I feel like I need one to get my morning started… every morning… then one about every 3-4 hours. I have gottenA LOTbetter- getting down to only having one a day- but I wanted to cut that out, too. However, cutting it out made me insanely sleepy in the mornings! This was pretty much me:
The kind people at EBOOST sent me a sample of their powdered mix to try out. Their claim says:
EBOOST is a healthy energy drink mix that, when added to water, forms a vitamin rich effervescent supplement that increases energy levels, supports your body’s immune system, aids in recovery and electrolyte replacement, and boosts focus and performance.”
So, of course, I thought, “Yeah, right. Diet Coke > EBOOST.” Obvi, right?
Well, I was mistaken. Sorely mistaken. EBOOST comes in a super-cute little packet (I don’t know why I think everything is super-cute, but I definitely do) that looks innocent enough… but looks are deceiving. I added it to my bottle of water in the morning and didn’t think twice about it. About 20 minutes after I drank it… I suddenly realized that I wasn’t tired. And I didn’t get tired the whole workday. Wait… what? It had to be a fluke, right? So I tried it the next day. Same results. I have tried this for about a week and a half and have finally admitted to myself that EBOOST does what it promises. Not only does it give me energy, but I was feeling like I was getting a cold last week. Once I started drinking EBOOST for a few days? No more cold. Seriously. Therefore…
EBOOST > Diet Coke
It comes in two different flavors- orange and pink lemonade. I’m usually more of an orange fan, but I totally loved the pink lemonade! It’s a little fizzy and tastes yummy. Go try it out!

NBA All-star Amar’e Stoudemire has been an EBOOST fan for a long time (he even sells it in his website store). And now he’s getting the biggest BOOST so far: a $99.7m, five-year contract with the New York Knicks. Here’s what the New York Post had to say:
The first block of a potential Knicks’ Dream Team was placed yesterday as All-Star power forward Amar’e Stoudemire announced he had agreed to terms with the Knicks. Stoudemire will get a five-year, $99.7 million deal that likely won’t be insurable because of past knee surgery.
“Oh yeah, the Knicks are back,” Stoudemire crowed.
Everyone at EBOOST would like to say CONGRATULATIONS, AMAR’E! You’re an amazing athlete and an inspiration to all of us here. Your talent and dedication to your sport and the work you do with kids through your Each One Teach One Foundation make us proud to know you. Stay BOOSTed!

Our friends over at fitbook by fitlosophy have just sent out their latest newsletter and it’s filled with tips for enjoying a healthier Fourth of July celebration. Here are some of their suggestions:
Opt for burgers made from grass-fed beef. They contain more omega-3s and less fat than traditional burgers.
If you’re using ground turkey instead of beef, make sure you choose lean or extra-lean varieties.
Try low-fat salsa or mustard as toppings instead of sugar-filled ketchup and BBQ sauce.
Instead of ranch dip for veggies, add powdered ranch seasoning to non-fat greek yogurt. You’ll get a protein boost while cutting calories and fat.
For more BBQ survival tips, check out the full newsletter here. And don’t miss the special recipe for a Strawberry Lemonade Protein BOOSTer. Pink Lemonade EBOOST, vanilla protein powder, frozen strawberries and water are all you need to make this explosively delicious pre-workout treat.
