Chocolate Mint Protein Brownies

March 28, 2017

A chocolate mint brownie that’s also good for you? Yep – you gotta try this one to believe it!

Unfortunately these chocolatey minty delectables are usually pretty unhealthy and can really hinder your goals as far as fitness, diet, and weight loss are concerned.

Well this is a travesty that must be stopped! You should be able to have your chocolate-mint treats and your fitness goals, too! I set out to conquer this hurdle and came up with what I feel to be the perfect solution. I’ve teamed up with BodyTech to give you Tone and Tighten’s “Chocolate Mint Protein Brownies”!

Working on both is key to taking your results to the next level, and they can be an excellent way to launch off any plateau you may find yourself on!

Today I’m sharing one of my favorite Plyo-Strength Workouts for your legs. This workout can easily be done anywhere without any equipment; however your results can certainly be enhanced if you have a pair of dumbbells handy!
