There I sat. Exhausted, mentally hazy, and physically spent from an honest day\u2019s work and a brutal strength & conditioning test! I was on the cusp of launching into a meeting designed to pack a semester\u2019s worth of marketing courses into JUST 4 hours. My day had begun at 4 AM sharp and without my usual cup of coffee I was beginning to lose my edge.
\nCoffee features an extensive list of health benefits!! It has protective effects on the brain, boosts energy and mood, and has a very powerful lipolytic (fat burning) effect!<\/p>\n
There is however a BIG problem with this! Most of us have ceased to drink coffee at all. What do I mean?! Simply because a beverage is available at your favorite Starbucks or Dunkin\u2019 Donuts store doesn\u2019t mean it\u2019s \u201ccoffee\u201d. Some of these tantalizing, sensual concoctions feature 70-80 grams of sugar and are around 1000 calories!! They are basically caffeinated ice cream!!<\/p>\n
Here are my 5 Instant WAYS to upgrade your coffee right at home!<\/strong><\/p>\n 1. Cut the FLUFF<\/strong> 2. SPICE IT UP <\/strong> 3. Add Fat to Lean Up<\/strong> 4. When in doubt BURN it out!<\/strong>
\nCream, sugar, non-dairy creamer, milk, artificial sweeteners, whip cream, caramel drizzle, creme brulee. Ditch it!! Ditch \u2018em all. Coffee in its natural, black, roasty state features ONLY 7 calories per cup! Combine this with the power of caffeine and it makes it nature\u2019s perfect FAT burner!!<\/p>\n
\nA little trick I learned from Devan Kline himself!! A few dashes of CINNAMON is a great way to PUMP that coffee up without adding ANY calories! In addition to its natural sweetness, cinnamon is a POWERFUL antioxidant and has shown to help with blood sugar control!<\/p>\n
\nYour eyes DO NOT deceive! Coconut Oil makes a GREAT addition to black coffee! Despite its rich fat content per serving, coconut oil is largely composed of a special ready to burn FAT called MCT\u2019s (medium-chain triglycerides for all you science GEEKS!) which are readily converted into QUICK energy! This form of healthy fats is a critical part of any healthy lifestyle and its creamy texture is sure to please your palate.<\/p>\n
\nThat\u2019s right. Burn Boot Camp\u2019s signature Organic, Grass-Fed, Cold Temperature AfterBurn protein<\/a> features 23g of delicious whey!. It\u2019s great whey to make that coffee rich and delicious (excuse the pun)! Check out Devan\u2019s special tips to making this creative concoction on Burn TV!<\/p>\n
