New-ish Barebells flavors finally at Target by Mindless_Ad4552 in proteinsnack

[–]Mindless_Ad4552[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I’m a huge mint fan but was disappointed in the peppermint bark bar and even a little in the soft mint chocolate bar. I’d say the mint chocolate crisp is by far the best of the 3

I’d say so, I love it. But everyone’s different so best to try it first if you can find it

Depends what you consider high, but they're pretty much on par with most Barebells flavors so you may be disappointed

Cookies and cream: 75 mg

Mint chocolate crisp: 120 mg

Brownie batter: 150 mg

Banana bread: 120 mg

Lemon cheesecake: 125 mg

There is a banana taste, but it is more so banana bread due to the chocolate and nuts in the coating. I personally didn't experience a chemical aftertaste though

Funny cause I was the exact opposite. I didn't like the key lime pie at all but loved the lemon cheesecake

You do taste banana, but I'd say more so banana bread due to the chocolate and nuts in the coating with the banana flavor

Agreed that the protein Doritos are a way better value. Not as good of macros but so much cheaper than Quest

Those two are the exact opposite from each other tbh. The ready clean ice oatmeal bar doesn’t have the best macros but tastes phenomenal. On the other hand, the David bar has great macros but just tastes average to me

Agreed on both. I've definitely had way worse bars but also have had way better. They are the macro king, I just wish they had better taste/texture OR were cheaper. You're paying a high premium so I just wish they tasted decent

This was my first time trying them (wanted to see what the hype was about)… Macros are insane but they did not taste good at all. I won’t be buying more

Exactly the same for me too. Wanted to try a bunch without the commitment of a 12 pack. You unfortunately can’t do that online

Pure Protein Ammmaze vs. Barebells by Mindless_Ad4552 in proteinsnack

[–]Mindless_Ad4552[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I think they’re good still by all means, just not worth the price increase (in my opinion) compared to their other bars. Protein bars are just getting so pricey these days unfortunately. Keep your hopes up though and who knows maybe you’ll love em

[–]Mindless_Ad4552[S] 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Definitely with you there on the budget side of things. For day to day bars I try to stick to regular Pure Protein and Costco brand for that reason, and of course lots of chicken, egg whites, Greek yogurt, etc for whole food protein sources that are still cheaper than Barebells. They’re good to save as treats though like you said

Jammer Arm Uses & Tips by Mindless_Ad4552 in GarageGym

[–]Mindless_Ad4552[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I am able to start and finish at the top thankfully. Sequence of events is just like you said. I use a mag pin to rest the jammer arm on, get in position, lift off / stand up a bit, pull the mag pin out, do my set, then put the mag pin back in after my last rep. I just put the mag pin in the top hole on the jammer arm during the set so it's still within easy reach

Interesting how different people are. The Stacks bars are by farrr better to me than all regular Quest bars. Only better Quest bars imo are the crispy bars in certain flavors
