For Acclimatization: Start three days prior to travel at elevation and for duration of your stay. If unable to start ahead of time, start immediately upon first symptoms of altitude sickness or dehydration.

My Review:

I love health and fitness products so I was so excited to be asked to try Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink.  I received three .46 ounce (13 grams) packets of Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink in each flavor they offer.  Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink comes in three flavors: Elevation Orange, Mountain Grape, and Colorado Cran-Raspberry.  I enjoyed trying all three flavors, but my favorite flavor was Mountain Grape.

I poured ten ounces of water into a glass and then added the Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink packet.  It took about a minute of stirring before the powder had completely been mixed in.

I liked that the drink wasn't too sour or too sweet.  The second time I made the Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink I used twelve ounces of water, instead of ten ounces like last time.  I liked the twelve ounce water mix better as I felt it was more of an evened out taste, without being watered down.  Also, the mix of water and powder seemed to blend quicker with the twelve ounces of water.

I also love that this product is made with organic cane sugar, fruit juice powder, and just a touch of Stevia and Lo Han Fruit.  You can feel safe drinking Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink as it contains blended electrolytes, vitamins, minerals, and herbal extracts.  I like knowing that only the best goes into these products.

Unfortunately, I was unable to try this product while mountain climbing.  So I used Acli-Mate as a sports drink, daily immune booster, and energy drink.  As advised for performance, I consumed the Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink 50 minutes prior to exercise, which is within the 30-60 minute timeframe as recommended as a pre-sport energy supplement.  This product is also suggested that it may be used during and after activity.

About ¾ through drinking my Grape Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink I started noticing extra energy and felt more of an upbeat charge.  Since I was using this product as a pre-sport energy drink I headed to the gym for my cardio workout.  I had originally planned on working out for 30-45 minutes, but ended up working out for 65 minutes!  I felt energized and fired up!  I usually have a positive response with energy drinks, but I was impressed with Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink as I felt energized, but also focused.

I could definitely see this product, Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink helping with travel at elevation.  Hopefully one day I will be able to try that out.

I really liked how this product, Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink has multiple uses and advantages.  For instance, Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink can be used for stages of Acclimatization, Performance, and Recovery.  There are also several other activities this product can help with  such as daily hydration, headaches, jet lag, and many other uses.

I loved that Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink only has 35 calories and 8 grams of sugar per serving.  This is a very important element for me, because I spend time eating healthy and working out.  The last thing I want is to drink a sports drink filled with sugar and calories.

I would definitely recommend this product for anyone looking for a new sports drink or energy drink.  I would recommend this product for anyone looking to step up their game or in search of a recovery method for a hangover or jet lag.  I would also recommend this product for anyone looking for a supplement that provides assistance with acclimatization and mountain performance.  I will definitely continue to use this product, Acli-Mate Mountain Sports Drink, as I was truly impressed with the results.

"Low Back Pain Program" by Sherwin A. Nicholson Ebook Review


As a chronic pain patient I am always looking for Complementary and Alternative Medicine (CAM) for pain relief.  So I was very excited to be asked to try and review the "Low Back Pain Program" by Sherwin A. Nicholson.


Check out their website here: www.lowbackpainprogram.com


This book contains five exercise categories, forty-five exercises, and over 170 detailed illustrations.  Each category also has illustrations that detail what section of the body you are working on.  Each exercise is illustrated and detailed steps are listed to help you perform the exercise properly.

The author strongly recommends that you read the entire book and perform the exercises in order without skipping any of them.

This book contains five exercise categories that each cover and target different stages and levels your body will perform.  Category one, also referred to as the Limited Mobility Exercises, is the perfect beginning level that can help everyone from a novice to an expert get started into an exercise routine.  Category one focuses on increasing motion and flexibility while also relieving tension on muscles and joints.  There are thirteen exercises in category one and they should continue to be performed until the level is mastered and exercises can be completed with ease.  I spent five days practicing category one.  As a regular yoga and pilates practitioner I was already familiar with some of the exercises and was able to perform this section with ease so I moved onto stage two.

Category two, also referred to as Progressive Exercises, focuses on strengthening, adding stability, and reinstating flexibility.  Category two consists of nineteen exercises that are a bit more difficult than the previous category.  I spent ten days on this level before mastering it and being able to move on to category three.

Category three, also referred to as Challenging Exercises, focuses more on reducing fatigue and improving stamina.  This level is even tougher than the previous two and contains thirteen exercises.  I spent twelve days on this section.  I had some difficulty on this level and found myself struggling to get through all the exercises with ease.  I liked the challenges this section put on my body and it motivated me to push harder. 

Category four, also referred to as Maintenance Exercises, focuses on maintaining and conditioning your muscles.  There are eleven exercises in this section and all of them are from the previous categories that have been combined in this section to integrate them into your maintenance routine.  The author strongly recommends these exercises to be performed on a weekly basis.

Category five, also referred to as Supportive Exercises, offers beneficial exercises to be added to your daily regimen for additional support.  This section is more of a recommendation to add standard, widely popular and practiced exercise moves and stretches to your already created exercise plan.

At the very end of the book there are exercise worksheets that help you track which category you are on and how you rate the level of each exercise.  I thought this was a great idea and so useful, because days sometimes blur and I tend to forget how I thought each exercise felt the day before or the week before, etc.  This worksheet helped me keep on task and track when it was time to move up to the next category.

I loved how these exercises could be performed anytime and anywhere.  I was able to complete these exercises while I was watching TV shows and movies.  There were even some mornings that I was able to start my exercise routine in my bed.  However, for the majority of the program I performed these exercises on a yoga mat in my living room.

I really liked that all the exercises had thorough information and detailed illustrations to help identify and complete the exercises correctly.  Several of the illustrations even had arrows and axis lines to help guide you to perform the exercise accurately.

I also liked that most of the exercises offered a tip at the bottom that explained information on how to do the exercise even better or explained how the exercise is working and how it is helping relieve pain.


I have definitely noticed a positive difference after partaking in this program.  I feel stronger and have more motion and flexibility than I had before completing this program.  I feel I have less fatigue, less tension, and somewhat less pain.  As a chronic pain patient I know that the pain will never completely go away, but participating in pain management programs like this one, has provided significant and beneficial results to reducing the pain and improving my range of motion.  I would definitely recommend this program if you are a chronic pain patient or have acute low back pain or someone who is a beginner to exercise as this program offers so much detailed information and guidance.
